Reasons for racking back on a wall

Engineering
1 answer:
zmey [24]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Racking is the term used for when buildings tilt as their structural components are forced out of plumb. This is most commonly caused by wind forces exerting horizontal pressure, but it can also be caused by seismic stress, thermal expansion or contraction, and so on.

You are in charge of ordering the concrete for a basement wall concrete pour. The wall forms are all set up and ready. The wall
choli [55]

Answer:

189.15cy

Explanation:

To understand this problem we need to understand as well the form.

It is clear that there is four wall, two short and two long.

The two long are \rightarrow 120ft5in+2(10ft)

The two long are \rightarrow 122ft1in=122.08ft

The two shors are \rightarrow 86ft4.5in = 86.375ft

The height and the thickness are 14ft and 0.83ft respectively.

So we only calculate the Quantity of concrete,

Q_c = [(2*122.08)+(2*86-375)]*14*0.833\\Q_c=4864.02ft^3

That in cubic yards is equal to 180.15 (1cy=27ft^3)

Hence, we need order 5% plus that represent with the quantity

Q_{ordered}=1.05*180.15=189.15cy

Close to 16 billion pounds of ethylene glycol (EG) were produced in 2013. It previously ranked as the twenty-sixth most produced
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

a) 0.684

b) 0.90

Explanation:

Catalyst

EO + W → EG

<u>a) calculate the conversion exiting the first reactor </u>

CAo = 16.1 / 2   mol/dm^3

Given that there are two stream one  contains 16.1 mol/dm^3 while the other contains   0.9 wt% catalyst

Vo = 7.24 dm^3/s

Vm = 800 gal = 3028 dm^3

hence Im = Vin/ Vo = (3028 dm^3) / (7.24dm^3/s) = 418.232 secs = 6.97 mins

next determine the value of conversion exiting the reactor ( Xai ) using the relation below

KIm = \frac{Xai}{1-Xai}  ------ ( 1 )

make Xai subject of the relation

Xai = KIm / 1 + KIm  ---  ( 2 )

<em>where : K = 0.311 ,  Im = 6.97   ( input values into equation 2 )</em>

Xai = 0.684

<u>B) calculate the conversion exiting the second reactor</u>

CA1 = CA0 ( 1 - Xai )

therefore CA1 = 2.5438 mol/dm^3

Vo = 7.24 dm^3/s

To determine the value of the conversion exiting the second reactor  ( Xa2 ) we will use the relation below

XA2 = ( Xai + Im K ) / ( Im K + 1 ) ----- ( 3 )

<em> where : Xai = 0.684 , Im = 6.97,  and K = 0.311  ( input values into equation 3 )</em>

XA2 = 0.90

Differences between acidic and basic Bessemer process​
dybincka [34]

Answer:

In the acid processes, deoxidation can take place in the furnaces, leaving a reasonable time for the inclusions to rise into the sla*g and so be removed before casting. Whereas in the basic furnaces, deoxidation is rarely carried out in the presence of the sla*g, otherwise phosphorus would return to the metal.

A square-thread power screw is used to raise or lower the basketball board in a gym, the weight of which is W = 100kg. See the f
KIM [24]

Answer:

power = 49.95 W

and it is self locking screw

Explanation:

given data

weight W = 100 kg = 1000 N

diameter d = 20mm

pitch p = 2mm

friction coefficient of steel f = 0.1

Gravity constant is g = 10 N/kg

solution

we know T is

T = w tan(α + φ ) \frac{dm}{2}     ...................1

here dm is = do - 0.5 P

dm = 20 - 1

dm = 19 mm

and

tan(α) = \frac{L}{\pi dm}      ...............2

here lead L = n × p

so tan(α) = \frac{2\times 2}{\pi 19}

α = 3.83°  

and

f = 0.1

so tanφ = 0.1

so that φ = 5.71°

and  now we will put all value in equation 1 we get

T = 1000 × tan(3.83 + 5.71 ) \frac{19\times 10^{-3}}{2}  

T = 1.59 Nm

so

power = \frac{2\pi N \ T }{60}     .................3

put here value

power = \frac{2\pi \times 300\times 1.59}{60}

power = 49.95 W

and

as φ > α

so it is self locking screw
