My Learning Curve
This morning i learned that the things i've been referring to as bolts are in fact shear studs, which are used to make a strong connection between steel and concrete. Well, to be honest, all this was explained to me this morning while i was out walking Doggie Demeanor, but since i hadn't yet had my first cup of coffee, surprisingly little sank in. I spent the rest of the morning muttering to myself, "I know he said they're called 'shear something-or-others.'" I finally had to ask one of the other workers this afternoon, and have now added the term "shear stud" to my vocabulary. I've gone back and corrected the past few posts to reflect the correct terminology.
