Caring for Frames 2017 Gerald R Caring for Frames 2017 Gerald R. Ford Conservation Center About Frames Frames come in all shapes and sizes. Some are so large they must be disassembled to fit through doorways, while others are so small that they en- close tiny portrait miniatures. Frames can be highly decorative or inconspicuously plain. Some frames were even designed by the artists specifically for the artwork they enclose. No matter the size or adornment, frames add to and protect the works of art they surround and should be cared for accord- ingly. Frames can be made from just about any- thing.

  • Strength and Behaviour of Multi-Orientation Fillet Weld Connections
    University of Alberta Department of Civil & Environmental Engineering Structural Engineering Report No. 255 STRENGTH AND BEHAVIOUR OF MULTI-ORIENTATION FILLET WELD CONNECTIONS by Logan J. Callele Gilbert Y. Grondin and Robert G. Driver March, 2005 Strength and Behaviour of Multi–Orientation Fillet Weld Connections by Logan J. Callele Gilbert Y. Grondin and Robert G. Driver Structural Engineering Report No. 255 Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering University of Alberta Edmonton, Alberta, Canada February 2005 ABSTRACT The fact that the difference in deformation ductility can be quite large for welds of different orientations could have a significant impact on the behaviour of connections that combine fillet welds of multiple orientations (MOFW connection). Because of the difference in deformation ductility, there is potential for MOFW connections to fail before the full capacity of all of the welds in the connection reach their full capacity. A test series on welded lapped splice connections containing a transverse weld in combination with either longitudinal or 45° welds was conducted to investigate the effect of weld ductility on MOFW connections. The MOFW connection’s capacity is dependent on whether or not the connection will undergo enough deformation in order to mobilize the full capacities of each of the weld segments. The MOFW tests conducted indicate a that a strength lower than the sum of the strengths of the individual weld segments is achieved. A method that incorporates fillet weld load deformation response and addresses the differences in ductilities is presented. This method yields a prediction of any MOFW connection’s capacity. A reliability analysis completed for this method indicates that it results in an acceptable safety index.

Copying and distribution of this article is not permitted. Bit types his past summer, during the remodeling of my kitchen, I was faced with the task of making 31 Tcabinet doors. I needed speed and simplicity, so I broke out my router table and a set of cope-and- stick router bits. These bit combinations allow you to rout door frames quickly, in two steps. The first bit routs a profile and panel groove on the inside edge of all the Doors Made Easy TWO-BIT frame parts. The second bit is a mirror image of the SET first, routing a coped profile and a stub tenon on the ends of the frame rails. What you create is not a traditional mortise-and- tenon joint. But done right, it gives you a cabinet door that’s just as strong. The key is to use a flat panel of plywood Router bits for door or medium-density fiberboard (MDF) that’s glued in place— not a raised panel, which is designed to float.
