There are numerous analytical methods for establishing the surface roughness as well as the visualization of surface texture. Each of these methods has its own advantages and disadvantages. The ...

Adopted by the CSDA and recommended by ACI Committee 310, ST-115 is a quantifiable standard that designates floors by a surface texture grade. Since the moment polished concrete was born, it was ...

Cutoff filter is capable of measuring the wavelength at which the surface structure is differentiated between roughness and waviness data. For precise measurements, it is very important to choose the ...

Being able to quantify a surface finish is both a complex and necessary task. While surface topography relates to a three-dimensional property, the most accepted surface measurement parameter is ...

Three new surface finishes for as-cast formed concrete are defined in the new ACI 301-10 Specifications for Structural Concrete, which supersedes ACI 301-05. Rough-Form and Smooth-Form As-Cast ...

All plastic molders understand that the surface texture of the mold cavity and core will transfer a texture to the corresponding molded part. But even experienced molders can be unclear about the ...
