Louisiana-based Sazerac Co. has seen sales of its Fireball Cinnamon Whisky nearly triple since 2012 -- from .8 percent to 2.3 percent of the market for liquors sold at bars and restaurants -- according to an analysis by industry research firm Restaurant Sciences.
Overview. Laminated Veneer Lumber (LVL) is a high-strength engineered wood product used primarily for structural applications. It is comparable in strength to solid timber, concrete and steel and is manufactured by bonding together rotary peeled or sliced thin wood veneers under heat and pressure. LVL was developed in the 1970s and is today used for permanent structural applications including beams, lintels, purlins, truss chords and formwork.
Half-value layer. the amount of absorbing material that will reduce the intensity of the primary beam to one-half its original value. an indirect measure of the total filtration in the path of the beam. HVL is expressed in terms of aluminum filtration equivalency.e.g. 2.0 mm Al/Eq.iltration also removes a portion of the useful beam. Has a visible effect on film density. When filtration is increased, technical factors must be increased to maintain the same IR exposure.
