Watching out, About Disadvantages of Steel Structure(II)

Steel as good heat resistance but poor fire resistance

With the increase of temperature, the properties of steel gradually change. When the temperature is less than 250 C, the mechanical properties of the steel change very little. When the temperature reaches 250 C, the steel has brittle turning (called blue brittleness), creep between 260 320 C, and then the strength decreases gradually. When the temperature reaches 450 C, the strength decreases sharply, and when the temperature reaches 650 C, the strength decreases almost to zero. Therefore, the steel structure has certain heat resistance, but poor fire resistance.Click Here For More.

Poor corrosion resistance of steel, protective measures so important

Steel is easy to be rusted, and it is easier to be rusted by chemical reaction or electrochemical action in wet or corrosive medium environment. Therefore, steel structure must be treated with anti-corrosion. Generally, steel components can be coated with anti-corrosive paint after rust removal, but this protection measure is not once and for all, and needs to be repaired at intervals, so its maintenance cost is higher. For steel members with strong corrosive media, coastal buildings and very thin wall thickness, special treatment should be carried out such as galvanized, galvalume composite layer, etc. These measures will correspondingly increase the cost of steel structures.

Brittle fracture about steel structures under low temperature or other harsh conditions

In the negative temperature environment, the plasticity and toughness of steel gradually decrease. When it reaches a certain temperature, the toughness will suddenly drop sharply. It is called cold brittleness at low temperature, and the corresponding temperature is called critical brittleness temperature. Low temperature cold brittleness is also one of the main causes of accidents in some steel structure projects in winter. In addition, steel is easy to brittle fracture under repeated loading, complex stress, sudden loading, cold working, aging hardening, welding defects and other harsh conditions.

Morning time, Let us read some news from China. Here we go, reading news is always to help us to know more information from the world. Click Here For More. By this time, my post of China news is key information to read.

Railway trips for Spring Festival

China expects 413m railway trips for Spring Festival. Daily trips are expected to hit a record high of 10.33 million, the CRC said. China’s railway operators said on Friday that they expect more rail travel in the coming spring rush. According to data from China Railway Corporation (CRC), passengers are expected to take 413.3 million railways during the 40-day peak period from January 21 to March 1, up 8.3% from 31.8 million last year. Starting on Sunday, the tourists can buy tickets online or by telephone. In order to facilitate passengers, the railway department has optimized the online shopping system and improved the identification process. Every year during the Lunar New Year, hundreds of millions of Chinese return home to reunite with their families. The Chinese Lunar Year of Pigs will begin on February 5, 2019.

Great Nature Mount Tai in China(II)

Geographic Environment

Mount Tai runs through the central part of Shandong Province, within the territory of Tai’an City, between Tai’an, Jinan and Laiwu.

In front of Mount Tai is Qufu, the hometown of Confucius, and back to Jinan city, the city of Quancheng. Mount Taishan rises in the east of the North China Plain and is above the Qilu Plain. It faces the sea in the East and the Yellow River in the west. In the south, there are Wen, Click Here For More. Sihuang and Huaihe rivers. Its East-West length is about 200 kilometers. Its north-south width is about 50 kilometers. Its main mountain range and offsets cover more than ten surrounding counties. It covers an area of 426 square kilometers and its main peak, Yuhuangding, is 1,545 meters above sea level.Click Here For More.

Mount Tai is the largest mountain range in the hills of Shandong Province. The stratum is the typical basement and caprock structure area of North China Platform. The southern part of the plateau rises greatly, and the caprock is weathered away, revealing a large area of basement- Mount Tai Complex, i.e. the stratum of Mount Tai Group in the Archaeozoic Era. Its absolute age is about 2.5 billion years, and it is one of the oldest strata in China. In the north, the rise is small, and the typical Paleozoic strata developed on the North China platform are preserved in the caprock.

MySQL Is Important For PHP(II)

How to understand MySQL

MySQL is a relational database. Click Here For More. This so-called “relational” can be understood as the concept of “table”. A relational database consists of one or more tables, such as a table shown in the figure:

  • Header: The name of each column;
  • Column: A collection of data with the same data type;
  • Row: Each row is used to describe the specific information of a record;
  • Value: The specific information of the row, each value must be the same as the data type of the column;
  • Key: The value of the key is unique in the current column;

SKODA SUV For More Outdoor Sports(II)

SKODA SUV

SKODA flagship SUV retrofitted, 189,900 RMB, low-end vehicles enjoy high-end vehicle allocation. This is the model from Shanghai Automobile Co., Ltd, which VW group cooperated in China.

Recently, SKODA Shanghai Automobile Co., Ltd. officially launched the 2019 Kodiak. The new car provides two types of power for a total of 7 models. The price range is 1899-2699 million yuan. While the price is adjusted slightly, the configuration has been greatly optimized.Click Here For More.

The interior and exterior design of the new car continues the old model. As a popular brand, Kodiak’s interior has a strong popular style, mainly composed, while the appearance is more fashionable and younger than the public, and the temperament difference is obvious.Click Here For More.

In the case of little change in the price of the corresponding models, the new car modification focuses on optimizing the configuration, such as adjusting the TSI330 5 luxury version to TSI330 7 comfort version (5 seats to 7 seats), TSI330 7 two-drive luxury technology version to TSI380 7 four-drive luxury enjoyment version (two-drive change to four-drive).

At the same time, at the existing configuration level, many high-quality vehicle configurations are decentralized, including all-liquid crystal digital instrument, double USB charging interface in back row, front-reversing radar, automatic parking, driving assistance system, intelligent OFF-ROAD off-road mode, etc. Power continues to use 2.0T + 7DCT power combination, there are two adjustments of high and low power, which correspond to the performance parameters of L 2.0T high and low power version.Click Here For More.

It is worth mentioning that for the two brothers, Kodiak and Touguan L, the power is exactly the same (not to mention the 1.4T version of Touguan L), the wheelbase is exactly the same and the configuration is not very different. Besides, the top model of Kodiak is about 90,000 yuan cheaper than Tiguan L, and the former has 7 seats (the latter only 5 seats), but now it is available. In fact, the pursuit of “genuine public” is obviously more.
