| ACTUATOR | (english) A device for converting hydraulic energy into mechanical energy, i.e., a motor or cylinder. |
| Inertial Force: | (english) A fictitious force used for convenience in visualizing the effects of forces on bodies in motion. For an accelerating body, the inertial force is considered as a body force whose resultant acts at the object's center of gravity in a direction opposite the acceleration. The magnitude of the force is the mass of the object times the magnitude of the acceleration. |
| Air Entraining Agent | (Concrete Engineering) An addition for hydraulic cement, or an admixture for concrete or mortar which entrains air in the form of minute bubbles in the concrete or mortar during mixing. |
| Bush-hammer | (Concrete Engineering) A tool having a serrated face, as rows of pyramidal points, used to develop an architectural finish for concrete surfaces. |
| Consistency | (Concrete Engineering) The degree of plasticity of fresh concrete or mortar The normal measure of consistency is slump for concrete and flow for mortar. |
| Gillmore Needle | (Concrete Engineering) A device used in determining time of setting of hydraulic cement, described in ASTM 0 266. Gradation The sizing of granular materials; for concrete materials, usually expressed in terms of cumulative percentages larger or smaller than each of a series of sieve openings or the percentages between certain ranges of sieve openings. |
| Hydrogenesis | (Concrete Engineering) Another term for condensation. The term is especially applied to base and soil substrates under highway pavements. where the barometric pump causes the inhalation of humid air, which then condenses in those structures, causing an ever increasing moisture content and sometimes instability. |
| Particle-Size Distribution | (Concrete Engineering) Particle distribution of granular materials among various sizes; for concrete material normally designated as gradation. Usually expressed in terms of cumulative percentages smaller or larger than each of a series of sieve openings or percentages between certain ranges of sieve openings. |
| paint for concrete | สีสำหรับทาคอนกรีตเป็นสีที่ทำขึ้นจาก zinc oxide หรือ barium sulphate ผสมกับน้ำมันตั้งอิ๊ว ซึ่งนิยมใช้แบบนี้กันมาก |
