The purpose of a keyway is to stop the movement of the foundation.
What are the disadvantges of flood embankments?

What is Damp proof membrane under concrete slab?
This is a heavy gauge polythene laid under the concrete to stop dampness rising upwards
Why is pitch filled in between the cement blocks of the pavement?
Because in summers the cement blocks stsrt expanding due t o excessive heat, So to stop it we fill pitch betwwen them which hold the blocks tightly and stop them to contract in winters.if there would be continuous expansion and contraction the cemen blocks would have cracks and they would break down.
How are metals treated to prevent them from rusting?
Metals are prevented from rusting by providing a coating on the surface of the metal to stop the metal from mixing with oxygen and H2O in the air. Please do not copy this word for word. I am handing this in for a report. Thanks!
Why doesn't a coat of paint stop the rusting process on iron?
paint won't stop rust, it only prevents it if apllied to clean metal.
What is the best rust solution for metal?
The best rust solution for metal is a rust converter or rust inhibitor that can stop the rusting process and protect the metal from further corrosion.
You can use zinc to stop things rusting how do you do that?
Galvanising is the act of coating a metal (iron or steel) in a thin layer of zinc. The metal is dipped in molten zinc.
What is done to stop bridges from rusting?
Metal comes in contact with oxygen. That's the main reason that many mechanics wipe down their older metal tools with oil (WD-40). The coat of oil prevents air from contacting the metal. That's why they spend much more than $100,000 to paint a bridge. The coat of paint saves them. H2O, water, has the same effect on metal.
How do you you stop iron rusting?
rust is iron oxide, this is FeO. To stop the addition of oxygen you must place a barrier in the way, the most cost effective way of doing this is to paint the metal.
Can antifreeze stop rusting?
No, it can't.
What metal is added to stop stainless steel rusting?
The most rust resistant stainless steels contain nickel and chromium in addition to iron.
Will using vinegar to clean your metal pipe make it rust?
Yes, using vinegar to clean a metal pipe can potentially cause it to rust. Vinegar is acidic and can corrode certain metals, leading to rusting over time. It's better to use a cleaner specifically designed for metal surfaces to avoid this issue.
How does oil stop rust?
Supposedly, oil forms a protective layer around the rusting metal, not allowing water and oxygen to get to it, but it has been proven to be highly ineffective.
Do you need water to stop iron from rusting?
no
What does rusting need?
For something to rust you need oxygen and water. Rust specifically relates to iron (or iron products such as steel); it is iron oxide. When the metal comes into contact with oxygen disolved in water the iron in the metal reacts with the oxygen disolved in the water to form iron oxide - rust. This is why most metals are protected, to stop water and oxygen getting into contact with the metal and causing corrosion i.e. rust. Common methods of protection include galvanising, painting and coating.
