| System engineering - | (Software Engineering) focuses on the analysis and design of all elements of a complete product, service, or technology for the transformation of information or control |
| Time-boxing - | (Software Engineering) a project scheduling and control technique that establishes time boundaries for the completion of a specific project task |
| WebApps (Web Applications) - | (Software Engineering) any application that delivers meaningful content or functionality to end users via the Web. |
| Absolute Volume | (Concrete Engineering) The volume of an ingredient in its solid state, without voids between individual pieces or particles, in the case of fluids, the cubic content occupied. In concrete, the actual volume occupied by the different ingredients determined by dividing the weight of each ingredient pounds, by ifs specific gravity, times the weight of one cubic foot of water in pounds. Example: Absolute Volume of one sack of cement equals: 94 ๗ (3.15X62.4) = 0.478 cubic feet |
| Air Content | (Concrete Engineering) The amount of entrained or entrapped air in concrete or mortar, exclusive of pore space in aggregate particles, usually expressed as a percentage of total volume of concrete or mortar. |
| ASR - Alkali-Silica Reactivity | (Concrete Engineering) The reaction of aggregates, which contain some form of silica or carbonates with sodium oxides or potassium oxides in cement, particularly in warm, moist climates or environments, causing expansion, cracking or popouts in concrete. |
| Calcareous | (Concrete Engineering) Containing calcium carbonate or, less generally, containing the element calcium. |
| Cellular Concrete | (Concrete Engineering) A lightweight product consisting of portland cement, cement-pozzolan, cement sand, lime-pozzolan, or lime-sand pastes, or pastes containing blends of these ingredients and having a homogenous void or cell structure, attained with gas forming chemicals or foaming agents. For cellular concretes, containing binder ingredients other than or in addition to portland cement, autoclave curing is usually employed. |
| Cement Content | (Concrete Engineering) A quantity of cement contained in a unit volume of concrete or mortar, ordinarily expressed as pounds, barrels, or bags per cubic yard. |
| Condensation | (Concrete Engineering) When a moisture laden gas comes in contact with a cooler surface a change of state from gaseous to liquid occurs. |
