  2. Waffle slab - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waffle_slab

    Waffle slabs are preferred for spans greater than 40 feet (12 m), because, for a given mass of concrete, they are much stronger than flat slabs, flat slabs with drop panels, two-way slabs, one-way slabs, and one-way joist slabs. [2] Section of a waffle slab including beam, ribs, and column head

  3. Cantilever - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cantilever

    A cantilever is a rigid structural element that extends horizontally and is unsupported at one end. Typically it extends from a flat vertical surface such as a wall, to which it must be firmly attached. Like other structural elements, a cantilever can be formed as a beam, plate, truss, or slab.

  4. Retaining wall - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retaining_wall

    A basement wall is thus one kind of retaining wall; however, the term usually refers to a cantilever retaining wall, which is a freestanding structure without lateral support at its top. [2] These are cantilevered from a footing and rise above the grade on one side to retain a higher level grade on the opposite side.

    An overhanging, wall-mounted turret projecting from the walls, usually at the corners, of medieval fortifications or churches. Basement Usually the lowest, subordinate storey of building, generally either entirely or partially below ground level; the lowest part of classical elevation, below the piano nobile. Basilica

  6. Tieback (geotechnical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tieback_(geotechnical)

    Typically in the form of a horizontal wire or rod, or a helical anchor, a tieback is commonly used along with other retaining systems (e.g. soldier piles, sheet piles, secant and tangent walls) to provide additional stability to cantilevered retaining walls. [1]

  7. Drop structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drop_structure

    The vertical hard basin drop structure, also called a dissipation wall, is the basic type of drop structure.The vertical hard basin drop consists of a vertical cutoff wall, usually built of concrete, that is usually laid perpendicular to the stream flow, and an impact basin, not unlike a stream pool, to catch the discharged water.

  8. Abutment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abutment

    Full height abutment, cantilever abutment that extends from the underpass grade line to the grade line of the overpass roadway; Stub abutment, short abutments at the top of an embankment or slope, usually supported on piles; Semi-stub abutment, size between full height and stub abutment; Counterfort abutment, similar to counterfort retaining walls

  9. Steel plate shear wall - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steel_plate_shear_wall

    The theory that governs the design of plate girders for buildings proposed by Basler in 1960, [6] [7] should not be used in the design of SPW structures since the relatively high bending strength and stiffness of the beams and columns are expected to have a significant effect on the post-buckling behaviour. However, Basler's theory could be ...
