Terrazzo chips are used with portland cement in making floors, which are smoothed down and polished after the cement has hardened Test (R incercare) 1. exploratory borehole; to search for mineral deposits in an unproved area by means of boreholes. 2. to obtain material samples (soil, concrete, etc.) from which the physical characteristics of the material can be determined, such as in foundation testing 3. sequence of operations intended to verify the correct operation (or malfunctioning) of a material or system
Thermal shock (R Soc termic) force, arising out of thermal expansion or contraction, which causes disruption of a material on sudden heating or cooling
Thermohygrograph (F Thermohygrographe) Device that measures and records simultaneously air temperature and relative humidity (BS 5643)
Tin (R cositor) (Chem. Symbol: Sn) Element No. 50 of the periodic system; atomic weight 118.70. Soft silvery white metal of high malleability and ductility, but low tensile strength; melting point 449°F, yielding the longest molten-state range for any common metal; specific gravity 7.28. Principal use as a coating on steel in tin plate; also as a constituent in alloys. Also tin plate (R tabla cositorita), tinsmith (R tinichigiu), tinning(R cositorire) , coating with tin, commonly either by immersion into molten tin or by electrodeposition; also by spraying Title (R functia) ...
