On the exterior, the verticality is emphasised in a major way by the towers and spires and in a lesser way by strongly projecting vertical buttresses, by narrow half-columns called attached shafts which often pass through several storeys of the building, by long narrow windows, vertical mouldings around doors and figurative sculpture which emphasises the vertical and is often attenuated.

The internal columns of the arcade with their attached shafts, the ribs of the vault and the flying buttresses, with their associated vertical buttresses jutting at right-angles to the building, created a stone skeleton.

The graph of this function does intersect the vertical asymptote once, at ( 0, 5 ).

A common example of a vertical asymptote is the case of a rational function at a point x such that the denominator is zero and the numerator is non-zero.

A rational function has at most one horizontal asymptote or oblique ( slant ) asymptote, and possibly many vertical asymptotes.

Dennis the Menace's famous ' red and black ' jersey had formed the colours of a few of the Beano characters ' clothes ( Minnie the Minx has the same, although the placement of the stripes is a bit different ; Ball Boy's was a vertical red and black ; Roger the Dodger has a chessboard design top, and Danny ( from the Bash Street Kids ) has a similar cap ), but they have changed for Minnie and Ball Boy ( Minnie at one point had a red and yellow top and Ball Boy's strip is now black and blue ).

Caving was pioneered by Édouard-Alfred Martel ( 1859 – 1938 ) who first achieved the descent and exploration of the Gouffre de Padirac, France as early as 1889 and the first complete descent of a 110 metre wet vertical shaft at Gaping Gill, in Yorkshire, England in 1895.

Further soundings made by the US Center for Coastal & Ocean Mapping in 2011 are in agreement with this figure, placing the deepest part of the Challenger Deep at, with a vertical precision of approximately.

He conceived and developed many of his user interface ideas back in the mid-1960s, long before the personal computer revolution, at a time when most individuals were kept away from computers, and could only use computers through intermediaries ( see batch processing ), and when software tended to be written for vertical applications in proprietary systems.

When framed in wood for snug fitting of a door, the doorway consists of two vertical jambs on either side, a lintel or head jamb at the top, and perhaps a threshold at the bottom.

Finally, the oxidized form of the metal to be reduced at the cathode, is written, separated from its reduced form by the vertical line.

These include the vertical and horizontal stabilizers ( fin and tailplane ) that are ( normally ) at the rear of the fuselage.

Unlike sports like Association football and ice hockey which require the puck or ball to pass completely over the goal line to count as a score, both Canadian and American football just merely need the nose of the ball to break the vertical plane of the outer edge of the goal line.

vertical path from Earth's surface to outer space ; at other times the optical path is from the observer's altitude to outer space.

; Description of national flag: Three vertical panels-the outer panels of ultramarine and the centre panel of gold.

*: Ultraman crouches slightly forward and crosses his wrists together, with his right forearm vertical and left forearm horizontal in front of it, and the thumb edge of his hands facing his body, to shoot from the outer edge of his right hand a particle / light-ray that kills most opponents.

The structure, with a vertical outer retaining wall rising directly from the moat, is an extended usage of the ha-ha of English landscape gardening.

The building's vertical columns were able to resist the nearly vertical downward force of the blast, and parts of the concrete and brick outer walls remained intact.

They projected onto a deeply curved screen, the outer thirds of which were made of over 1100 strips of material mounted on " louvers " like a vertical venetian blind, to prevent light projected to each end of the screen from reflecting to the opposite end and washing out the image.

The tread " depth " is measured from the outer edge of the step to the vertical " riser " between steps.

The center of the arcs of the white band is two modules ( 2m ) to the left of the meeting point of the extended vertical diameter of the circle with the base of the outer frame.

No international agreement exists on the vertical limit that separates this from outer space, which is international.

Impressed lines mark the vertical edges of the text area, and there is an outer pair of lines.

Due to the uniquely wide tracks used ( 1100 mm each ) being completely enclosed within the fixed outer side armor panels that defined its overall hull width, and the inner vertical lengthwise walls of the hull used to mount the suspension components, a narrow lengthwise " tunnel " remained between the hull's inner walls, under and to the rear of the turret to house the engine and generator of the tank's powertrain.

The outer casing has several vertical shafts, which hold the spring-loaded pins.

There is no international agreement on the vertical extent of sovereign airspace ( the boundary between outer space — which is not subject to national jurisdiction — and national airspace ), with suggestions ranging from about ( the extent of the highest aircraft and balloons ) to about ( the lowest extent of short-term stable orbits ).

In the lower half of the mast, there was a vertical steel tube, attached to the mast's outer structure with large insulators.

By the 1160s, architects in the Île-de-France were employing similar systems but with longer and finer arches running from the outer surface of the clerestory wall, over the roof of the side aisles ( and hence visible from the outside ) to meet a heavy vertical buttress rising above the level of the outer wall.

The structure is composed of two vertical slabs that rest on the floor, to which the bottom component is conjoined, and the ceiling of the structure extends to the outer edges of the vertical walls.

It is a vertical triband with red outer bands and a single white middle band.
