Chinese (traditional) ..... 在一座建築結構或是一種材料之中大量添加如混凝土之類的物料,使之變形以更有效地載重料,並且因此而較不容易偏斜。 |
Dutch ..... Een constructie of een materiaal, bijvoorbeeld beton, verzwaren en het daarbij op zodanige wijze te vervormen dat het een bepaalde belasting beter kan weerstaan of zodat het minder zal doorbuigen. |
Spanish ..... Aplicación de un peso a una estructura o material, como hormigón, deformándolo de modo que pueda soportar una carga de trabajo en forma más eficaz o de modo que se deflecte menos. |
