Within the dining hall, warm wood panels line the walls below three big windows on the seaward side, interspersed with vertical strips of glass showing how the columns meet the floor. In what McLaughlin describes as the pavilion's coup de théâtre, three large, motorized windows on the seaward side drop like guillotines, descending through low walls at their base to hang below the floor. BUILDING TYPE STUDY 1,052 RECORD HOUSES SALTMARSH HOUSE | ISLE OF WIGHT, UNITED KINGDOM | NÍALL MCLAUGHLIN ARCHITECTS PHOTOGRAPHY BY NICK KANE FOR AS LONG AS the British have visited the seaside for pleasure, the country's coastal architecture has borrowed freely from far-flung places.

The article provides information on the concept of telescopic hydraulic cylinders. These devices are constructed like a telescope, which sections of steel tubing with successively smaller diameters nest inside each other. Meanwhile, the two basic types of telescopic hydraulic cylinders are single-acting that relies on gravity or some external mechanical force for retraction and double-acting, which are powered hydraulically in both directions. INSET: Telescopic cylinders will help show off 25,000-hp….

Increasing numbers of bale trailers are being fitted with hydraulic load-securing sides, including the latest MetaX Mooring from Swedish firm Metsjo. During loading, these bars drop down neatly in line with the trailer's floor, meaning there's no ledge to lift the bales over and no framework hanging below the floor either.

The article reports that steel tube producer Welded Tube of Canada has implemented condition monitoring for tube forming gearboxes on its continuous metal tube forming line in Concord, Ontario.

The article focuses on the advantages of using galvanized tubes with a two-layer combination of zinc from Mannesmann Präzisrohr GmbH. It states that the zinc coating shields the surface of the steel tubes from direct contact with surrounding environment and acts as a sacrificial anode, meaning it corrodes before the steel does. With such extra protection, these tubes can be used in applications such as construction, agricultural and mining equipment exposed to harsh environments.

Provides information on an in-vessel steel tube composting system being developed by Bioganix that is capable of processing waste products. Features of the composter; Functions of the steel tube composter; Amount invested in the composter; Measures done by the company to reduce the amount of odors released by the plant.

Focuses on designing or specifying formed metal tubing. Determination of the tube's bend radius by the forming die; Material identifier and concerns on bend angles; Use of a clamping die to hold the tube tightly against the forming die; Assignment of final part dimensions.

The article offers information on the triple-galvanized structural steel tubing and the high-density polyethylene (HDPE) fabric from ClearSpan Fabric Structures.

The article focuses on the construction of an ammonia plant in Trinidad according to well-established process design principles. The reliance on the tried and true permits the approval of drawings that contained an error that has left a weak point in the facility. The error concerns with the reversal of the positions of the stainless and carbon tubes in the drawing. Approval of the drawing means that the preheater's carbon steel tubes are exposed to cooled effluent gas.

El artículo habla de la empresa mexicana Conexiones Inoxidables de Puebla, S.A. de C.V. y Conexiones Inoxidables y Equipos, S.A. de C.V., conocida también como Grupo CIPSA. Se indican los productos que fabrica la empresa incluyendo tuberías de acero inoxidable para uso alimentario y farmacéutico, válvulas y bombas centrífugas industriales.

The article evaluates several medical equipment including Eureka Duet Biodegradable Device Matrix from SurModics, AL140 Plasma System from Plasmatech Inc., and stainless steel tubes for intravenous applications from Metal Cutting Corp.

The article presents a reprint of the article "Coiled Tubing Connects Offshore Valves to Control Station," which appeared in the February 1981 issue of "Hydraulics and Pneumatics." The article describes the polypropylene-coated coiled steel R-50 tubing from Republic Steel which was laid on the bottom of western Lake Erie in 33,000-feet sections by the Consumer's Gas Co.

Reports on the development of Sandvik SAF 2507 stainless steel tubes by Sandvik Materials Technology Co. for resisting erosion corrosion and corrosion fatigue on steam condensers of a powerplant in Vietnam. Advantage of the steel tubes; Amount of steel tubes needed to retube the entire plant.

A new electric hydraulic pump, called ZU4, is a suitable power source for foundation repair, post-tensioning work and powering medium-to-large cylinders or hydraulic tools. It is light-weight and has a thermally insulated handle. An optional tubular steel skid frame adds an extra-wide stance and carrying ability to smaller models. Larger units include extra large side handles. A 1.7-hp motor provides a high power-to-weight ratio and draws 18% less current than comparable pumps, says the maker.

A 1.2-km-long viaduct featuring a novel, 4.5-m-deep composite deck box girder with steel tube webs designed to enhance prestressing efficiency and save weight is nearing completion in France. The $50-million Meaux Viaduct 40 km east of Paris, France is part of the government's bridge innovation program. As Paris-based contractor Razel SA advances the deck by a span every two weeks, bright paintwork highlights the unusual steelwork. Curving across the Marne Valley, the viaduct lies on a new 20-km stretch of the A140 highway being built to carry traffic around the city of Meaux. Because of its size and prominence, government engineers sought innovative engineering with an attractive design.
