No part of this book may be reproduced or transmitted in any form or by any means, electronic or mechanical, including photocopying, recording or by any information storage and retrieval system, without prior written permission in writing from the publisher. i Foreword This edition is for practical and widespread use to fill a void in existing technical literature for this field of knowledge. It will be tested through use and improved as needed. It is to be expected that omissions will be discovered by readers and critics, and that some of the entries will engender criticism and comment. The Nomenclature Committee of ASSE International will welcome every criticism and suggestion for inclusions and deletions in future editions. Almost every professional society has a nomenclature committee. Ours decided to venture where no one in plumbing had gone before us – that is, to this actual publication. It is a beginning. Let special legal meanings be decided by constituted authorities and the courts. It is the purpose of this book to be “descriptive,” not prescriptive; to describe, define, and explain, and not to prescribe limitations or establish fixed and restrictive meanings; to record the words and combinations of words used in plumbing, and to give the definitions and meanings of these words and terms. Wherever possible, nontechnical language has been used, but specialized and technical terminology have been retained wherever necessary to help give the truest pertinent meanings. It is intended, thereby, that either the knowledgeable sanitarian or the student who seeks to learn, can rely on the information to be found in this book. Plumbers’ work encompasses many fields of knowledge. Plumbing is affected by advancements in technology, new inventions, improvements of materials, and discoveries in seemingly unrelated fields. Similarly, the terminology of plumbing is derived from everyday human language, which is constantly changing. In this dynamic environment, the Nomenclature Committee of ASSE International collected the terms and words of plumbing for this Plumbing Dictionary. This dictionary includes many words that are not common in daily speech. On the other hand, it has many words that are regularly used by everyone, but have become specialized and thus have, in the sense used, become plumbing terms – like “vent,” “fixtures,” and “water closet.” To prepare this book, we started to collect words and terms from plumbing trade publications, product catalogues, text books, plumbing code books, reference books, and dictionaries. We solicited lists from people in all phases of plumbing; from manufacturers, plumbers, plumbing inspectors, and educators ... and we are extremely grateful for the enthusiastic responses we received. ii Trade names and brand names have been purposely omitted from this book. Several grammatical functions such as pronunciation symbols, inflectional forms, and etymologies have been omitted as they are in most technical dictionaries. When two or more words have similar meanings, or are used interchangeably, the definition given under the term is the most-used or preferred. Use of varied terms and meanings, due to geographical differences, has resulted, in several instances, in a polysemous entry (many meanings for the same word). The main entry appears in bold type without capitalization. Filing is in strict alphabetical order by letter, without regard to spacing, hyphens, etc. – as shellac, orange, and shellac white; before shell, tank. A word having more than one syllable is usually divided into phonetic syllables, retaining correct spelling. This is shown in parenthesis. (pa-ren-the-sis). Definitions are shown in sentence form. Wherever examples follow the definition sentence, the first word of the example sentence is capitalized. Cross-references are encouraged by use of “see” and “see also” in small letters, no punctuation; followed by the referred-to term.

  • Flange Facing Machines Applications
    Technical Papers Protem SAS Flange facing machines applications I) DEFINITION AND USE OF A FLANGE FACING MACHINE A Flange Facing Machine also called Portable Lathe is made to mechan- ically polish a disk, collar or ring connected to a pipe in order to form a link with other piping elements (valves, other pipes, etc.) or to block off a part of the piping. This machining operation is done by successive strips to ensure face flatness and regularity. A company needs a Flange Facing Machine when flanges are deformed or corroded due to flows inside a network (water, steam, oil & gas, etc.) and even damaged from outside due to vibrations or bad handlings. Quality of a flange facing is fundamental because sealing and pressure resistance depend on it. II) A FLANGE FACING MACHINE FOR WHICH INDUSTRIES? Flange Facing Machines are needed wherever you can find a flange or a valve, including the following fields: Nuclear Industries Fossil Industries: Oil & Gas (drilling platforms, refineries, offshore, onshore, spool base, etc.) Petrochemical Industry (manufacturing plants of various chemicals) High Purity Diesel Engines Shipyards Tube Processing Defense And generally speaking all industries where mechanical device whose function is to control the flow of fluids in piping systems are present. III) HOW OFTEN IS IT NECESSARY TO REPAIR A FLANGE? There is not a common answer. Indeed, a flange is subject to many preexisting or evolving threats due to: Effect of corrosion Normal and, sometimes, abnormal stresses about bending, pressure, vibrations, etc. Low

  • Carpenters of Japanese Ancestry in Hawaii Hisao Goto Kazuko
    Craft History and the Merging of Tool Traditions: Carpenters of Japanese Ancestry in Hawaii Hisao Goto Kazuko Sinoto Alexander Spoehr For centuries the Japanese have made extensive use of wood as the main raw material in the construction of houses and their furnishings, temples, shrines, and fishing boats. As a wood-worker, the carpenter is one of the most ancient of Japanese specialists. He developed a complex set of skills, a formidable body of technical knowledge, and a strong tradition of craftsmanship to be seen and appreciated in the historic wood structures of contemporary Japan.1 The first objective of this study of carpenters of Japanese ancestry in Hawaii is to throw light on how the ancient Japanese craft of carpentry was transplanted from Japan to a new social, cultural, and economic environment in Hawaii through the immigration of Japanese craftsmen and the subsequent training of their successors born in Hawaii. Despite its importance for the understanding of economic growth and develop- ment, the craft history of Hawaii has not received the attention it deserves. The second objective of the study is more anthropological in nature and is an attempt to analyze how two distinct manual tool traditions, Japanese and Western, met and merged in Hawaii to form a new composite tool tradition. This aspect of the study falls in a larger field dealing with the history of technology and of tool traditions in general. Carpentry today, both in Japan and in the United States, relies heavily on power rather than hand tools. Also, carpenters tend to be specialized, and construction is to a major degree a matter of assembling prefabricated parts.

  • Spanners and Wrenches
    Spanne rs and Wrench es - the various types open spanners - ring spanners - adjustable - box spanner - socket allen keys - torque wrench - pipe wrench - basin spanner - tips Spanners come in all shapes and sizes, many being developed to deal with a specific job. By far the most important consideration when using a spanner is to ensure that it fits the nut perfectly. Too loose, and it will round the comers of the nut - and slip, often damaging the nut. Spanner and your hand. When purchasing spanners, select good quality tools. The best types are forged from carbon steel or chrome vanadium, if not abused, these will last a lifetime. Open ended - 'C' spanner The open ended spanner is the most common type, and may have a single or double end. The head has its jaws offset by about 15 degrees from the run of the shaft. This is so the spanner can be turned over to engage different flats of a nut when working in confined spaces. Another version, called an obstruction spanner, is designed for use in confined spaces. It has one head set at anything upto 90 degrees to the shaft, and the shaft may have a slight curve. Ring spanner As the name implies, the ring spanner usually has a completely enclosed head, and may have six or 12 flats. A 12 flat spanner engages upon the corners of the nut and can engage both hexagon and square bolts. A six flat spanner is normally shaped to fit against all 6 sides of hexagon nuts, this ensures a very tight fit and can allow considerable force to be applied.

  • Toxicological Profile for Hydrogen Sulfide and Carbonyl Sulfide
    HYDROGEN SULFIDE AND CARBONYL SULFIDE 149 6. POTENTIAL FOR HUMAN EXPOSURE 6.1 OVERVIEW Hydrogen sulfide has been found in at least 34 of the 1,832 waste sites that have been proposed for inclusion on the EPA National Priorities List (NPL) and carbonyl sulfide was detected in at least 4 of the 1,832 waste sites (ATSDR 2015). However, the number of sites evaluated for these substances is not known and hydrogen sulfide and carbonyl sulfide are ubiquitous in the atmosphere. The frequency of these sites can be seen in Figures 6-1 and 6-2. Carbonyl sulfide and hydrogen sulfide are principal components in the natural sulfur cycle. Bacteria, fungi, and actinomycetes (a fungus-like bacteria) release hydrogen sulfide during the decomposition of 2- sulfur containing proteins and by the direct reduction of sulfate (SO4 ). Hydrogen sulfide is also emitted from volcanoes, stagnant or polluted waters, and manure or coal pits with low oxygen content (Aneja 1990; Khalil and Ramussen 1984). The majority of carbonyl sulfide that enters the environment is released to air and it is very abundant in the troposphere (Conrad and Meuser 2000; EPA 1994c, 1994d; Meinrat et al. 1992; Simmons et al. 2012; Stimler et al. 2010). It enters the atmosphere from both natural and anthropogenic sources (EPA 1994c, 1994d; Meinrat et al. 1992; Stimler et al. 2010). Carbonyl sulfide is released from wetlands, salt marshes, soil, oceans, deciduous and coniferous trees, and volcanic gases (Blake et al. 2004; EPA 1994c, 1994d; Meinrat et al. 1992; Rasmussen et al. 1982a, 1982b; Stimler et al.
