   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. Formwork - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formwork

   For removable forms, once the concrete has been poured into formwork and has set (or cured), the formwork is struck or stripped to expose the finished concrete. The time between pouring and stripping depends on the job specifications, which include the cure required, and whether the form is supporting any weight; it is usually at least 24 hours ...

4. Fence - Wikipedia

5. Deflection (engineering) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deflection_(engineering)

   Building codes determine the maximum deflection, usually as a fraction of the span e.g. 1/400 or 1/600. Either the strength limit state (allowable stress) or the serviceability limit state (deflection considerations among others) may govern the minimum dimensions of the member required.

6. Sandwich panel - Wikipedia

   Normal applications have spaces between the supports that are approx. 3 m – 5 m. The thickness of panels is from 40 mm up to more than 200 mm. The density of sandwich panels range from 10 kg/m 2 up to 35 kg/m 2, depending on the foam and metal thickness, decreasing time and effort in: transportation, handling and installation.

9. Agricultural fencing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agricultural_fencing

   The principle of wire fences is that they are supported mainly by tension, being stretched between heavy strutted or guy-wired posts at ends, corners, and ideally at intervals in longer stretches (every 50 to 300 metres, 150 to 1000 feet). Between these braced posts are additional smaller wooden or metal posts which keep the wires spaced and ...
