AL has various meanings in the Architectural category. Discover the full forms, definitions, and usage contexts of AL in Architectural.
A silver-white soft metal, noted for its lightness, high reflectivity, high thermal conductivity, non-toxicity and corrosion resistance. It is the most abundant metallic element, comprising about 1/12th of the earth's crust. It is never found in nature as an elemental metal, but only in combination with oxygen and other elements. In ordinary commercial and industrial use, the word "aluminum" is often understood to mean aluminum alloy, rather than the pure metal.

OR The height of an object, like an airplane, above sea level or above the earth's surface. OR Height, usually with respect to the terrain below (radar altitude, feet above closest dirt) or fixed earth reference (barometric altitude, feet above mean sea level); Symbols: h; Typical Units: ft; Dimensions: Length; or angle of a celestial object above the horizon.
ArchitecturalAluminium or aluminum is a chemical element with symbol Al and atomic number 13. It is a silvery-white, soft, nonmagnetic, ductile metal in the boron group. By mass, aluminium makes up about 8% of the Earth's crust; it is the third most abundant element after oxygen and silicon and the most abundant metal in the crust, though it is less common in the mantle below.
