  2. Tape correction (surveying) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tape_correction_(surveying)

    According to the section of tension correction some tapes are calibrated for sag at standard tension. These tapes will require complex sag and tension corrections if used at non-standard tensions. The correction due to sag must be calculated separately for each unsupported stretch separately and is given by:

  3. Hogging and sagging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hogging_and_sagging

    Hogging is the stress a ship's hull or keel experiences that causes the center or the keel to bend upward. Sagging is the stress a ship's hull or keel is placed under when a wave is the same length as the ship and the ship is in the trough of two waves.

  4. Airy points - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airy_points

    Minimum sag occurs when the centre of the rod sags the same amount as the end points, which is not quite the same thing as minimum horizontal motion of the ends. The nodes of free vibration, 0.5516 times the length. The points for zero central sag (any closer and the beam rises between the support points): 0.5228 times the length.

    These projects are called repetitive or linear projects. The main advantages of LSM over critical path method (CPM) is its underlying idea of keeping resources continuously at work. In other words, it schedules activities in such a way that: resource utilization is maximized;

  8. Compressive strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressive_strength

    As shown in the section on correction formulas, as the length of test specimens is increased and their aspect ratio approaches zero (/), the compressive stresses (σ) approach the true value (σ′). However, conducting tests with excessively long specimens is impractical, as they would fail by buckling before reaching the material's true ...
