Compressive strength of concrete is the Strength of hardened concrete measured by the compression test. The compression strength of concrete is a measure of the concrete’s ability to resist loads which tend to compress it. It is measured by crushing cylindrical concrete specimens in compression testing machine. What is compressiveRead More →
Compression. Compress with a simple elastic bandage or elasticated tubular bandage, which should be snug but not tight, to help control swelling and support the injury. This should be removed before going to sleep. How long should Tubigrip be worn? The knee bandages need to be left in place forRead More →
Concrete is stronger than steel in terms of compressive strength. However, in terms of tensile resistance, it is much weaker. The strength of a building material depends on several mechanical properties, so it’s only fair to consider them before choosing the right material for your project. How does compressive strengthRead More →
One of the biggest benefits of parallel compression is being able use to intense compression settings without completely destroying the dynamics of your source. That’s why parallel compression is often used on drums and percussion. Heavy compression has a particularly satisfying effect on drums. Should I compress my vocals? WhenRead More →
Near the top of the compression stroke, the spark plug fires. The piston reaches TDC. As the piston reaches TDC, the air/fuel mixture burns, increasing the pressure inside the cylinder. This forces the piston back down the cylinder. Is the piston at top dead center or bottom dead center? TDCRead More →
