I met a girl from Scotland who studies textiles I thought she made interior design patterns What is it?
Glass is smaller than the frame and there is some squishy stuff (sealer) between the glass and frame Special glass that expands uniformly when heatedAlso, the glass is not exposed to large, sudden temprature changes The wires are allowed to sag
the windows have rubber around them to allow for expansion and contraction, and overhead cables are allowed to hang loose between poles for expansion and contraction (look at them when it's snowing or frosty, how tight they are, compared to a boiling hot summers day, when they is all loosey) and apparently, cylinder shaped glass is more resistant to expansion and contraction
Aluminum expands much more than glassWhich means the frame could shrink in cold and put pressure on the glassThe manufacturer could leave a small gap around the glass Beakers don't have an expansion problem, they sit by themselvesutility lines are hung in loops, they are not tight, so they have plenty of room to expand and contract.
Hey Cotterall, A textile is a flexible material comprised of a network of natural or artificial fibres often referred to as thread or yarn[1] Textiles are formed by weaving, knitting, crocheting, knotting, or pressing fibres together.
