  2. Threaded rod - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Threaded_rod

    A threaded rod, also known as a stud, is a relatively long rod that is threaded on both ends; the thread may extend along the complete length of the rod. [1] They are designed to be used in tension. [2] Threaded rod in bar stock form is often called all-thread (ATR); other names include fully-threaded rod, redi-rod, continuously-threaded rod ...

  3. Tension member - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tension_member

    A tension member is a structural element designed to carry loads primarily through tensile forces, meaning it is subjected to stretching rather than compression or bending. These members are integral components in engineering and architectural structures, such as trusses , bridges , towers, and suspension systems, where they provide stability ...

  4. Structural engineering theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_engineering_theory

    Strength depends upon material properties. The strength of a material depends on its capacity to withstand axial stress, shear stress, bending, and torsion.The strength of a material is measured in force per unit area (newtons per square millimetre or N/mm², or the equivalent megapascals or MPa in the SI system and often pounds per square inch psi in the United States Customary Units system).

  5. Tension (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tension_(physics)

    Tension is the pulling or stretching force transmitted axially along an object such as a string, tyrope, chain, rod, truss member, or other object, so as to stretch or pull apart the object. In terms of force, it is the opposite of compression. Tension might also be described as the action-reaction pair of forces acting at each end of an object.

  6. Flexural rigidity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flexural_rigidity

    Although the moment () and displacement generally result from external loads and may vary along the length of the beam or rod, the flexural rigidity (defined as ) is a property of the beam itself and is generally constant for prismatic members. However, in cases of non-prismatic members, such as the case of the tapered beams or columns or ...

    I chose to convert the corner beside my china cabinet into a makeshift broom closet using the curtain and rod. I'm in the process of renovating a 100-year-old house, so there are half-finished ...

  8. Glossary of string theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_string_theory

    Since has the dimension of action, i.e. momentum times length, it follows that in natural units mass =1/length, and so ′ has the unit of area. The slope α ′ {\displaystyle \alpha ^{\prime }} of a Regge trajectory α ( M 2 ) {\displaystyle \alpha (M^{2})} in Regge theory is the derivative of spin S {\displaystyle S} or angular momentum with ...

  9. Tie (engineering) - Wikipedia

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

    A tie, strap, tie rod, eyebar, guy-wire, suspension cables, or wire ropes, are examples of linear structural components designed to resist tension. [1] It is the opposite of a strut or column, which is designed to resist compression. Ties may be made of any tension resisting material.
