  2. Surface roughness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_roughness

    Surface roughness can be regarded as the quality of a surface of not being smooth and it is hence linked to human perception of the surface texture. From a mathematical perspective it is related to the spatial variability structure of surfaces, and inherently it is a multiscale property.

  3. Surface treatment of PTFE - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_treatment_of_PTFE

    The primary effect of ion beam treatment therefore is morphology modification, with little chemical effect. Longer ion beam treatment time is assumed to increase surface area for bonding, which in turn increases peel strength. [6] Laser surface roughening of PTFE has also been studied as a potential method for increasing bond strength to PTFE.

  4. List of construction methods - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Construction_methods

    The list of construction methods covers the processes and techniques used in the construction process. The construction method is essential for civil engineers; utilizing it appropriately can help to achieve the desired results. The term building refers to the creation of physical structures such as buildings, bridges or railways. One of the ...

  5. Surface modification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_modification

    Surface modification is the act of modifying the surface of a material by bringing physical, chemical or biological characteristics different from the ones originally found on the surface of a material. [1] This modification is usually made to solid materials, but it is possible to find examples of the modification to the surface of specific ...

Surface engineering techniques can be used to develop a wide range of functional properties, including ...

  7. Diamond grinding of pavement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diamond_grinding_of_pavement

    Diamond grinding is a pavement preservation technique that corrects a variety of surface imperfections on both concrete and asphalt concrete pavements. Most often utilized on concrete pavement, diamond grinding is typically performed in conjunction with other concrete pavement preservation (CPP) techniques such as road slab stabilization, full- and partial-depth repair, dowel bar retrofit ...

  8. Grading (earthworks) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grading_(earthworks)

    Section through railway track and foundation showing the sub-grade. Grading in civil engineering and landscape architectural construction is the work of ensuring a level base, or one with a specified slope, [1] for a construction work such as a foundation, the base course for a road or a railway, or landscape and garden improvements, or surface drainage.

  9. Detonation spraying - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Detonation_spraying

    Chemical processes are generally the most suitable methods used to clean the substrate surface. After which care must be taken not to touch and/or dirty the surface prior to spraying. The three methods used to roughen up the substrate surface are abrasive blasting, machining and bond coating. Cleaning occurs only after the roughening of the ...
