Therefore, if the GGT level is normal in a person with a high ALP, the cause of the elevated ALP is most likely bone disease. The GGT test is sometimes used to help detect liver disease and bile duct obstructions.
Another example of an inclined plane is a wedge. A wedge is an inclined plane that pushes objects apart. An axe, knife and a chisel are wedges because their blades are sloped like an inclined plane. These simple machines multiply the effort that you apply and make it easier to cut things. A saw is another type of wedge.
Cold saw(ing) machines are circular saws that are used in many metal cutting operations. The saw blades used are quite large in diameter and operate at low rotational speeds, and linear feeds. There are three common types of blades used in circular saws; solid-tooth, segmental tooth, and the carbide inserted-tooth.
