  2. SOD1 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SOD1

    SOD1 binds copper and zinc ions and is one of three superoxide dismutases responsible for destroying free superoxide radicals in the body. The encoded isozyme is a soluble cytoplasmic and mitochondrial intermembrane space protein, acting as a homodimer to convert naturally occurring, but harmful, superoxide radicals to molecular oxygen and hydrogen peroxide.

    A set of barrels can be used with a mono-strand stressed tendon as an alternative to an anchor block. block See anchor block. bond The adhesion of concrete or grout to prestressing strands, wires or bars, or to unstressed reinforcement, either through friction or mechanical interlock. [1]: 9 bond strength

  4. Eurocode 2: Design of concrete structures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eurocode_2:_Design_of...

    EN 1992-1-2 deals with the design of concrete structures for the accidental situation of fire exposure and is intended to be used in conjunction with EN 1992-1-1 and EN 1991-1-2. This part 1-2 only identifies differences from, or supplements to, normal temperature design.

  5. Double tee - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_tee

    The Precast/Prestressed Concrete Institute (PCI) published the double tee load capacity calculation (load tables) for the first time in the PCI Design Handbook in 1971. The load tables use the code to identify double tee span type by using the width in feet, followed by "DT", followed by depth in inches, for example, 4DT14 is for 4-foot (1.2 m ...

  6. 3D concrete printing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_concrete_printing

    TU/e Built Environment's Rohaco 3D Concrete Printer being extensively used for Concrete Printing Research. 3D concrete printing, or simply concrete printing, refers to digital fabrication processes for cementitious materials based on one of several different 3D printing technologies. 3D-printed concrete eliminates the need for formwork, reducing material waste and allowing for greater ...

  7. Shotcrete - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shotcrete

    Other manufacturers were thus compelled to use other terminology to describe the process such as shotcrete, pneumatic concrete, guncrete, etc. Shotcrete is an all-inclusive term for spraying concrete or mortar with either a dry or wet mix process. However, shotcrete may also sometimes be used to distinguish wet-mix from the dry-mix method.

  8. Eurocode 4: Design of composite steel and concrete structures

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eurocode_4:_Design_of...

    EN 1994-1-2 deals with the design of composite steel and concrete structures for the accidental situation of fire exposure and is intended to be used in conjunction with EN 1994-1-1 and EN 1991-1-2. This part only identifies differences from, or supplements to, normal temperature design and deals only with passive methods of fire protection.

  9. Self-consolidating concrete - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-consolidating_concrete

    Self-consolidating concrete or self-compacting concrete (SCC) [1] is a concrete mix which has a low yield stress, high deformability, good segregation resistance (prevents separation of particles in the mix), and moderate viscosity (necessary to ensure uniform suspension of solid particles during transportation, placement (without external compaction), and thereafter until the concrete sets).
