The overlap of courses of slates.

A timber of diminished thickness which overlaps another. (Wood, Margaret. The English Medieval House, 412)

The overlapping of one piece of veneer on another in the same layer of ply.

Slight overlapping of two printed colours to ensure there is no fault in registration. More commonly referred to as Trap, Trapping.

A condition where one piece of veneer in the same ply overlaps an adjacent piece.

That part of a roofing membrane which overlaps or covers any portion of another section of membrane which is then sealed to form a watertight connection.

verb To place or lay a layer of felt so as to cover part of another; overlap. noun The amount by which a felt overlaps another. A continuous ply of felt laid on a roof.

Condition where veneers composing plywood are so misplaced that one piece overlaps the other and does not make a smooth joint.

that part of a roofing, waterproofing, or flashing component that overlaps or covers any portion of the same or another type of adjacent component.

The distance the bricks of the course overlap the bricks of another course

1. The overlap of two roofing plies. 2. The length by which one bar or sheet of fabric reinforcement overlaps another. 3. The length of the overlap of two reinforcing bars; also called Lap Splice. 4. The amount of extension of one brick or any other masonry unit over another.

To overlap the surface of one shingle or other type of roofing material with another; also the length of such an overlap.

A condition where the veneers are so placed that one piece overlaps the other.

To overlap the ends of two siding panels or accessory pieces to allow for expansion and contraction of the vinyl product.

The overlap of surface of one roofing material to another.

Term usually applied to an interval in the cased hole (of an oil or gas well) where the top of a liner overlaps the bottom of a string of casing.

(1) The distance two bars overlap when forming a splice. (2) The distance one masonry unit extends over another.

A defect appearing as a seam on a rolled bar. Laps are rolled over pieces of material that arise when a bar is given a pass through the rolls after a sharp overfill or fin has been formed, causing the protrusion to be rolled into the surface of the product. The presence of oxides usually prevents the lap welding to the original bar surface, so that in subsequent cold working it is carried through as a longitudinal crack.

A surface defect appearing as a seam, caused by folding over hot metal, fins or sharp corners and then rolling or forging, but not welding, them into the surface.

A surface defect, appearing as a seam, caused by fording over hot metal, fins, or sharp corners and then rolling or forging them into the surface, but not welding them.

One trip around the racing circuit. As a verb, when one driver gets so far of another that he passes him, thus putting the second driver more than a lap behind, he is said to have lapped him.

(headlap) - that part of a slate overlaying the slate two courses below. The standard lap is 3". Roofs with less slope (flatter) often take a 4" lap; those very steep need only a 2" lap.

One tour around the race course.

movement once around a course; "he drove an extra lap just for insurance"

1) Noun, One trip around the racing circuit, 2) Verb, when one driver gets so far ahead of another that he passes him, thus putting more than a lap ahead, he is said to have lapped him.

One trip around a track that is traversed more than once during a race.

1. One time around the track. 2. To surpass another runner in a race by one loop of the course.

One complete circuit around the track. As a verb, when the leaders pass the cars at the back of the field, thus putting the second driver more than a lap behind, he is said to have lapped him.

One trip around the track. Also refers to a situation where one driver is ahead of another by more than one lap.

One loop of the track, course or circuit.

One time around a track. Also used as a verb when a driver passes a car and is a full lap ahead of (or has lapped) that opponent. A driver "laps the field" by passing every car in the race.

One circuit around a race course is one lap.

A lap in one turn around the racetrack. A 500 mile race at a one mile racetrack would consist of 500 laps. A 500 lap race at a three quarter mile racetrack would consist of 375 laps.

To lay together one over another, as fleeces or slivers for further working.

To be turned or folded; to lie partly upon or by the side of something, or of one another; as, the cloth laps back; the boats lap; the edges lap.

1). The extended edge of half the signature at the face is called the face lap. RCP's saddle-stitch equipment requires a "high lap" of approximately 1/4", which means that the half of the pages with the highest page numbers extends 1/4" beyond the half of the pages with the lowest pages numbers at the face. Perfect bind jobs do not require a lap. 2) Pin lap or foot lap is the term used for the excess amount of paper resulting when the half-fold is run unevenly; the purpose of the pin lap is to move the pin holes farther from the crosshead to help ensure that the pin holes will trim off on the final product.

A general term used to designate wide sheets of loosely matted cotton, formed on such textile machines as the BREAKER PICKER, FINISHER PICKER, RIBBON LAPPER, and SLIVER LAPPER.

a flap that lies over another part; "the lap of the shingles should be at least ten inches"

lie partly over or alongside of something or of one another

The area where one colour overprints another, adjacent color.

The slightly extended areas of printing surfaces in color plates, which make for easier registration of color.

Area where a coat of paint or other coating extends over an adjacent fresh coat. The painter's objective is to make this juncture without visible lap marks.

A joint of two pieces lapping over one another.

The distance one masonry unit or reinforcing extends over another.

To cover the surface of one shingle or roll with another

Describes that area of a coating which extends over the edge of a previous (uncured) coat - usually resulting in an increase in the coating's thickness at that point.

To lay or place one coat so its edge extends over and covers the edge of a previous coat, causing an increased film thickness.

To extend one material partially over another; also, the distance so extended.

A joint formed by cutting the end of one board to lay flush on the lap of another cut piece; commonly used in frame construction.

The act of lapping with, or as with, the tongue; as, to take anything into the mouth with a lap.

The Data Link or OSI Layer Two protocol specified by the ITU-TS for the X.25 interface standard.

See Link Access Protocol.

Link Access Protocol. Any protocol of the Data Link Layer, such as EtherTalk.

Link Access Protocol. The link level elements used for data interchange between data circuit-termination equipment and data terminal equipment. A family of error correction protocols used on X.25 packet networks. See also LAPB.

Local Access Point. A generic software interface for microkernel-mediated calls from one actor to another on the local site. A LAP is a microkernel object that represents a handler function that has been exported by a supervisor actor for invocation by client actors. It is a super-fast inter-actor communication facility provided by the operating system.
