C'est par le biais des tendons que les muscles, lorsqu'ils se contractent, permettent la mobilisation des articulations. Par exemple, c'est le tendon bicipital qui s’attache à la partie supérieure de l'avant-bras qui va permettre la flexion du coude lorsque vous contractez votre biceps. 3, record 1, French, - tendon%20bicipital

Two types of ties are needed: An over the top tie, which keeps the unit from overturning, and a frame tie, which prevents the unit from being blown off its supports. For maximum protection, use both over the top ties and frame ties to secure mobile homes between 10 and 14 feet wide. 2, record 2, English, - over%2Dthe%2Dtop%20tie

In order to protect a mobile home properly against both overturning moment and sliding force, two types of ties are recommended: over-the-top ties, and frame ties ... The number of over-the-top and frame ties required for a given design gust speed depends on a number of variables, particularly the length and width of the mobile home, size and type of tie-down cables or strapes, soil conditions and holding power of ground anchors. 3, record 2, English, - over%2Dthe%2Dtop%20tie

Trees up to five inches in trunk diameter are normally supported by guying with the wires attached to stakes, these guy wires spaced at 120-degree angles. Wires may be fastened to the tree in the same manners already discussed, although in this instance all attachment point should be at least six inches apart. Attachment should be as high in the tree as practical and certainly at or above the lowest branches. Again, guy wires should be attached to stakes driven 18 inches into undisturbed soil. The axis of the stake should be in line with the axis of the pull on the guy wire. 3, record 4, English, - guying
Record number: 4, Textual support number: 2 CONT
Most large trees and shrubs require support staking or guying to hold them erect against buffeting winds. Wood or metal stakes are usual for single-trunked trees up to 3 inches in caliper and provide better support if used in pairs. Guy wiring with turnbuckles is used for anchoring large plant materials, and guy placement ordinarily follows either a triangular or rectangular pattern around the main stem. Both types of support require regular inspection for proper tauntness--up to a year for woody plants .... 2, record 4, English, - guying

Le haubanage. Lorsque l'arbre planté est d’une circonférence supérieure à 16-18 ou d’une morphologie interdisant la pose d’un tuteur(conifères, par exemple), utilisons trois haubans. Un hauban est un fil de fer, avec tendeur au besoin, qui relie un piquet fermement enfoncé dans le sol à une attache protégée par un tampon sur le tronc. Le point de fixation de cette attache se trouve environ entre la moitié et la base du tiers supérieur du tronc et les fils de fer sont posés approximativement à 45 °. Le jeu réciproque des trois haubans disposés à 120 ° l'un de l'autre, immobilise l'arbre. La raideur des haubans est réglée par les tendeurs et révisée régulièrement les premières semaines après la plantation, pour tenir compte du tassement des terres. 1, record 4, French, - haubanage
