2. Self-leveling concrete - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-leveling_concrete

   Self-leveling concrete was invented in 1952 by Axel Karlsson from Sweden. The first product was a combination of wood glue, fine sand and cement with additives. [1] It was called flytspackel, which directly translates to "floating putty". The term self-leveling can be traced back to a patent applied by the company Lafarge in 1997. [2]

3. Level (optical instrument) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Level_(optical_instrument)

   An automatic level, self-levelling level, or builder's auto level includes an internal compensator mechanism (a swinging prism) that, when set close to level, automatically removes any remaining variation. This reduces the need to set the instrument base truly level, as with a dumpy level.

4. Concrete leveling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concrete_leveling

   In civil engineering, concrete leveling is a procedure that attempts to correct an uneven concrete surface by altering the foundation that the surface sits upon. It is a cheaper alternative to having replacement concrete poured and is commonly performed at small businesses and private homes as well as at factories, warehouses, airports and on roads, highways and other infrastructure.

6. Level staff - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Level_staff

   A level staff, also called levelling rod, is a graduated wooden or aluminium rod, used with a levelling instrument to determine the difference in height between points or heights of points above a vertical datum. When used for stadiametric rangefinding, the level staff is called a stadia rod.

7. Self-cleaning floor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-cleaning_floor

   The Smart-Floor is one of the six UK designs that won the top 100 designs in Electrolux Design Lab 2013. [8] Another approach to self-cleaning floors involves the use of central vacuum systems beneath micro-perforated raised floor tiles. These systems create a small negative pressure to automatically collect all dust and dirt.

8. Levelling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levelling

   Turning is a term used when referring to moving the level to take an elevation shot from a different location. To "turn" the level, one must first take a reading and record the elevation of the point the rod is located on. While the rod is being kept in exactly the same location, the level is moved to a new location where the rod is still visible.

9. Self-levelling suspension - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-levelling_suspension

   [8] [9] This early attempt was an important step on the road to self-leveling, even if a full load would cause the whole car to lower evenly, rather than maintain height. In 1957, Cadillac introduced the Eldorado Brougham, a Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud competitor, featuring a new Air suspension with a self leveling feature. [10]
