A loading pad to be attached to a specimen to apply a load to the specimen includes: a back skin on which the load is applied; an elastic body that is provided between the back skin and the specimen; and an inserted member that is provided between the elastic body and the specimen. The back skin, the elastic body, and the inserted member are bonded as one unit. The inserted member is less rigid than the specimen, and is more rigid than the elastic body.

Loading pad and loading device

A support structure for a wind power generation device comprises: a plurality of floats that can float on the surface of water or in the water; a connecting member having one end connected to one of the floats and the other end connected to another of the floats among the plurality of floats; a support platform that is provided between the plurality of floats and supports the bottom end of a tower part of the wind power generation device; a linear wire member having one end connected to one of the floats and the other end connected to the support platform; and a support member that is provided on the floats or on the connecting member and supports the tower part, which is supported on the support platform, from a lateral direction while the support member being movable along the axial direction of the tower part.

Structure for seismic isolation, steel support structure, and method for seismic isolation of existing steel support structures

In a boiler support structure in which certain seismic isolators are provided with a pullout countermeasure, the seismic isolators to be provided with the pullout countermeasure are individually identified according to whether the seismic isolator satisfies Formula (1): N+N&#x3e;N. . . Formula (1), where N(N&#x3c;0) is a compressive load occurring on each of the seismic isolators and calculated on the basis of a permanent load imposed on the boiler support structure; N(N&#x3e;0) is a pullout force occurring on each of the seismic isolators and calculated on the assumption that an earthquake has occurred; and N(N&#x3e;0) is an allowable pullout force of each of the seismic isolators and calculated using an allowable pullout stress of each of the seismic isolators.

Support structure

To obtain an air conditioning apparatus which provides a favorable atmosphere to the ear and saves energy even if the suction resistance of the impeller becomes high due to such as dust in the air conditioning apparatus. The air conditioning apparatus is provided with an impeller which is formed by a plurality of vanes and a ring for supporting the plurality of vanes, and includes a nozzle portion formed by a stabilizer and an air outlet, a cross flow fan formed by a guide wall, and a heat exchanger. The ratio H/&phgr;D of the outside diameter &phgr; D of the impeller to the height H of the air conditioning apparatus is 2.2 or above and 3.0 or below.
