  2. ASTM A325 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASTM_A325

    ASTM A325 is an ASTM International standard for heavy hex structural bolts, titled Standard Specification for Structural Bolts, Steel, Heat Treated, 120/105 ksi Minimum Tensile Strength. It defines mechanical properties for bolts that range from 1 ⁄ 2 to 1 + 1 ⁄ 2 inches (13 to 38 mm) in diameter. [1]

    At that time, high-strength structural steel rivets were common in buildings and bridges, but bolts were expected to be safer, quicker, and more economical if technical equivalence could be demonstrated. The council's first Specification [3] identified ASTM A325 bolts as one-to-one replacements for ASTM A141 rivets. [4]

  4. ASTM A490 - Wikipedia

    Example would be the top of a coffee table to the shag of the carpet, not where the bottom of the tables feet dig in. AISI: American Iron and Steel Institute: The AISI acronym is commonly seen as a prefix to steel grades, for example, "AISI 4140". The SAE steel grade system was formerly a joint AISI-SAE system. Al or AL: aluminium: ALY: alloy ...

  6. Anchor bolt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anchor_bolt

    The simplest – and strongest – form of anchor bolt is cast-in-place, with its embedded end consisting of a standard hexagonal head bolt and washer, 90-bend, or some sort of forged or welded flange (see also stud welding). The last are used in concrete-steel composite structures as shear connectors. [6]

    A monolithic dome 1005 Ariola Drive, Pensacola Beach, Florida, after Hurricane Dennis in 2005. The physical geometry of a building affects its aerodynamic properties and how well it can withstand a storm. Geodesic dome roofs or buildings have low drag coefficients and can withstand higher wind forces than a square building of the same area.

  8. Properties of concrete - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Properties_of_concrete

    Twenty eight days is a long wait to determine if desired strengths are going to be obtained, so three-day and seven-day strengths can be useful to predict the ultimate 28-day compressive strength of the concrete. A 25% strength gain between 7 and 28 days is often observed with 100% OPC (ordinary Portland cement) mixtures, and between 25% and 40 ...

    The thread form is slightly modified to increase the minor diameter, and thus the strength of screws and taps. The major diameter still extends to within ⁠ 1 / 8 ⁠ H of the theoretical sharp V , but the total depth of the thread is reduced 4% from ⁠ 5 / 8 ⁠ H = ⁠ 5 / 8 ⁠ cos(30°) P ≈ 0.541 P to 0.52 P .
