A physical improvement that adds to the capital value of the structure. A capital expenditure that increases the utility or market desirability of the property. It is distinguished from repairs or replacements by the fact that the original character is improved and the value is increased. Also may arise from a physical change external to the property such as street improvements, improved drainage facilities, etc. Their measure of value is not in actual cost, but in enhanced value imparted to the property.  1, record 1, English, - betterment

Amélioration physique qui augmente la valeur en capital d'un ouvrage ou bâtiment. Une dépense en capital qui augmente l'utilité ou la valeur marchande de la propriété. Une amélioration se distingue de résultat d'une réparation ou d'un remplacement en ce qu'elle améliore le caractère initial de la propriété et en augmente la valeur. Elle peut aussi résulter de changements physiques extérieurs à la propriété, comme des améliorations aux rues et aux systèmes de drainage, etc. La valeur d'une amélioration ne s'évalue pas en fonction de son coût réel mais d'après l'augmentation de la valeur donnée à une propriété.  1, record 1, French, - am%C3%A9lioration

Compensation measures, in the context of facility siting, ... fall into two broad categories: (a) those which are impact-related, that is, they aim to offset unavoidable adverse residual impacts or damages thereby leaving the community no worse off than it was before the facility was sited there; and (b) those which are equity-related, that is, they aim to redress the unfair distribution of costs and benefits by ensuring that the local community derives benefit from the siting decision such that it is better off than it was before the facility was sited there.  1, record 2, English, - impact%2Drelated%20compensation%20measure

Examples of impact-related compensation measures include in-kind compensation(i. e., replacement of what is lost), service subsidies(to support any expansion of services that may be required to offset the effect of increased demand), property tax abatement(to offset any potential increase in property taxes), property value protection(guarantee of payment of fair market value as protection against a real decline in property value due to the construction and operation of the facility), and property buy out(for those residents who are likely to suffer significant levels of unavoidable impacts for an extended period of time). Payments-in-lieu of taxes, which have become a convention in public facility development, are not regarded as a component of impact management.  1, record 2, English, - impact%2Drelated%20compensation%20measure

Resistance to Temperature. ASTM Recommended Practice D 794 describes high-temperature testing for plastics. Only the procedure for heat exposure is specified, the test method being governed by the potential end use. Heat is applied using an oven with controlled air flow and with substantial fresh air intake. Two types of tests are described : continuous heat and cyclic heat. In the former, heat is gradually increased until failure occurs. Failure is defined as a change in appearance, weight, dimension, or other property that alters the material to a degree that it is no longer serviceable for the purpose in question. The test may take minutes to weeks, depending on the rate of temperature increase. The cyclic heat test repeatedly applies heat of a constant value until failure.  1, record 3, English, - cyclic%20heat%20test
