This paper presents test results for large cast-in-place anchor bolts in concrete. The tests were performed to evaluate the tensile performance of large anchors, that is, anchors with a diameter greater than 2 in. (50 mm) or an embedment depth greater than 25 in. (635 mm), which are not addressed by ACI 318, Appendix D, and ACI 349, Appendix B. The tests were also intended to investigate the safety of such anchors for use in nuclear power plants and the effects of regular (conventional) and s...

Construction surveying for anchor bolts: although the construction surveyor has many layout tasks and duties to perform on the jobsite, one of the most important tasks is the layout of anchor bolts. Anchor bolts are used to hold structural members to the foundation.(backtobasics)
Point of Beginning ; Structural steel or precast concrete columns or beams are fabricated and brought onto the site with the expectation that they will easily slip into place. If care is not taken to locate anchor bolts accurately, the structure simply may not fit. [ILLUSTRATION OMITTED] Construction surveyors must use
Incision under 2 mm yields good visual results in study
Ophthalmology Times ; SANTA MARIA, CA-A cataract incision of 2 mm or less results in a stable anterior chamber, yields excellent visual acuity results, and requires reduced instrumentation. "Some say cataract incisions are already small enough, but that's what they were saying when we went from 12-- to 6-mm incisions,
Is the industry ready for 450 mm wafers?(editorial)(sematech)(Editorial)
Semiconductor International ; The move to larger wafer sizes is, to some, inevitable. Going back to 1975, the industry moved fairly rapidly from 100 mm to 125 and 150 mm, with each transition taking about three years. The move from 150 to 200 mm took a little longer--five years--and the move to 300 mm took eight years. Today,
Melanomas are often smaller than 6 mm.(Dermatology)(Brief article)
Internal Medicine News ; BALTIMORE -- Cutaneous lesions smaller than 6 mm in diameter may be more likely to be melanoma than previously thought, which may call into question commonly used screening criteria, according to findings presented at the annual meeting of the American Society of Dermatopathology. We found a
