Plastic cement is a scientifically compounded composition of selected asphalts, mineral fillers, and refined solvents that are manufactured to a heavy consistency for application by trowel to provide a durable, elastic coating of excellent adhesion and high resistance to water and weathering. This product when applied dries to a tough, flexible, waterproof and corrosion proof coating which gives excellent performance over wide ranges of temperature and weather conditions. 2, record 11, English, - plastic%20cement

bordée : Selon Dagenais, dans son «Dictionnaire des difficultés de la langue française au Canada», ce mot, qui date du XVIe siècle, a signifié l'ensemble des canons rangés du même côté d'un navire, puis une décharge simultanée de tous les canons. Dagenais précise qu'il ne faut pas dire «nous avons eu une bordée de neige cette semaine» mais plutôt «il est tombé beaucoup de neige cette semaine». Or le terme «bordée de neige» est un canadianisme de bon aloi et son emploi se justifie parfaitement. Le «Trésor de la langue française» signale l'emploi de «bordée» comme régionalisme dans le sens d'une «grosse quantité de». Il relève la tournure «quelques bordées de grêlons» dans la «Chronique des Pasquier», de Georges Duhamel (Le Désert de Bièvres), 1938, p. 31. Il souligne également l'emploi de «bordée de neige» dans «Le Survenant» de Germaine Guèvremont, 1945, p. 94. Le «Dictionnaire québécois français», de Lionel Meney, nous indique que «bordée» a signifié en Saintonge une grande quantité de pluie, de grêle, etc. Enfin, mentionnons que d'autres dictionnaires, français et québécois, attestent l'emploi canadien de «bordée de neige». 10, record 12, French, - bord%C3%A9e%20de%20neige

The problem was solved with the next significant concept of airport lighting-the principle of "controlled intensity". Controlled or engineered intensity means that runway lights having practical pinpoint sources, with the beam aimed in the direction of the incoming pilot, could have the intensity of this beam controlled by either shifting the beam axis or more generally by varying the brightness of the lamp. Thus, high candle power is available to "punch through" heavy weather, but it is subject to brightness control for visual comfort. Note that this principle does not include illumination as none of this light strikes the runway surface. 1, record 36, English, - controlled%20intensity
