airborne sound attenuation Hindrance of sound propagation by airborne sound alloy alloy additions such as magnesium or manganese can significantly altar the properties of aluminium materials and adapt them to the requirementsbending resistance Describes the resistance of an element to deformation caused by force or torque. BK Sheet edge - cover sheet with the edge folded by 90° building structure core tempering Cooling/heating of floors and ceilings in buildings CNC Computerized Numerical Control corrugation geometry Structure and dimensions of the wave-like Metawell® core material crash element Element for specific transfer of kinetic energy during deformation (e.g. crumple zone in passenger vehicles) CSP CSP systems use large mirrors to focus solar radiation to produce power with the resulting heat in thermo-dynamic cycles.diffusor Rearward-extended directional grille of the underbody at the rear of vehicles for increasing the suction effect (downward pressure) FTPC Fire Test Procedure Code IMO International Maritime Organization lightweight construction lightweight construction is an approach to design that attempts to reduce weight as much as possible.
The reasons for lightweight construction designs may be very diverse, e.g. conserving energy, saving on raw materials or improved ratio of useful load to total weight of a structure.MED Marine Equipment Directive mounting profiles Profiles that transfer the loads to the structure (for example, facades, suspended ceilings) MSC Marine Safety Council OEM Original Equipment Manufacturer primered Pre-treatment of the surface with a special bonding primer sandwich construction Construction style for semi-finished products in which multiple layers (for example, cover sheet - core - cover sheet) having diverse characteristics are processed to form a composite. semi-finished product Panel material without additional machining, e.g. using CNC SOLAS Safety Of Life At Sea sustainable building sustainable building takes into account the ecological (e.g. energy), economic, social and cultural aspects of construction
