- Used by drillers to describe the tendency of the bit in a flat-angle borehole to follow an increasingly flatter course as the depth of the borehole increases.
- Much used by drillers, miners, and geologists for pieces of ore or rock that have fallen from outcrops of veins or strata or have been separated from the parent vein or strata by weathering agencies other than flowing water. also used as an adjective, as in float mineral, float ore, float rock.
- Various forms of ball-and-seat valves commonly inserted in casing and rod strings in such a manner as to keep drilling fluid out of the casing or rod string when lowered into a borehole. also called

- To disconnect from ground.
- Portion of warp or filling yarn covering two or more adjacent warp yarns or filling picks in a woven cloth. fr: abbreviation for flame resistant, which indicates a fabric’s ability to resist burning. fabrics that are not already inherently flame resistant may be treated with various processes to provide certain levels of flame resistance. g
- 1. the portion of a warp or filling yarn that extends over two or more adjacent filling picks or warp ends in weaving for the purpose of forming certain designs. 2. in a knit fabric, a portion of yarn that extends for some length without being knitted in. 3. a fabric defect consisting of an end lying or floating on the cloth surface instead of being woven in properly. floats are usually caused by slubs, knot-tails, knots, or fly waste, or sometimes by ends being drawn in heddle eyes incorrectly or being twisted around heddle wires.

- A direction parallel to the horizon, or what is commonly termed lying flat. one of the greatest inconveniences navigators have to struggle with is the frequent want of a distinct sight of the horizon. to obviate this a horizontal spinning speculum was adopted by mr. lerson, who was lost in the victory man-of-war, in which ship he was sent out to make trial of his instrument. this was afterwards improved by smeaton, and consists of a well-polished metal speculum about 3-1/2 inches in diameter, inclosed within a circular rim of brass, so fitted that the centre of gravity of the whole shall fall near the point on which it spins. this is the end of a steel axis running through the centre of the speculum, above which it finishes in a square for the convenience of fitting a

Radon, английский
- A naturally-occurring, heavier than air, radioactive gas common in many parts of the country. radon gas exposure is associated with lung cancer. mitigation measures may involve crawl space and basement venting and various forms of vapor barriers.
- Radar beacon
- A gaseous emanation produced by the radioactive decay of radium, given off by some soils and rocks; it may collect and constitute a rafter
- A radioactive gas, formed from the radioactive decay of radium, and used in capsules called radon seeds to treat cancers inside the body (note: the chemical symbol is rn.) comment: radon occurs naturally in soil, in construction materials and even in ground water. it can seep into houses and causes radiation sickness.
