an existing highway-railway at-grade crossing is being redesigned as grade separated to improve traffic operations. The railway

must remain at the same elevation. The highway is being reconstructed to travel under the railway. The underpass will be a sag curve that has an initial grade of -2% and a final grade of 2%. The PVI of the sag curve will be centered under the railway (a symmetrical alignment). The sag curve design speed is 45 mi/h. How many feet below the railway should the curve PVI be located

An aluminum alloy tube with an outside diameter of 3.50 in. and a wall thickness of 0.30 in. is used as a 14 ft long column. Ass
slega [8]

Answer:

slenderness ratio = 147.8

buckling load = 13.62 kips

Explanation:

Given data:

outside diameter is 3.50 inc

wall thickness 0.30 inc

length of column is 14 ft

E = 10,000 ksi

moment of inertia = \frac{\pi}{64 (D_O^2 -D_i^2)}

I = \frac{\pi}{64}(3.5^2 -2.9^2) = 3.894 in^4

Area = \frac{\pi}{4} (3.5^2 -2.9^2) = 3.015 in^2

radius = \sqrt{\frac{I}{A}}

r = \sqrt{\frac{3.894}{3.015}

r = 1.136 in

slenderness ratio = \frac{L}{r}

                              = \frac{14 *12}{1.136} = 147.8

buckling load = P_cr = \frac{\pi^2 EI}}{l^2}

P_{cr} = \frac{\pi^2 *10,000*3.844}{( 14\times 12)^2}

P_{cr} = 13.62 kips

A series of three direct shear tests has been conducted on a certain saturated soil. Each test was performed on a 2.375-inch dia
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

Go to explaination for the details of the answer.

Explanation:

Angle of friction (friction angle) is a measure of the ability of a unit of rock or soil to withstand a shear stress. It is the angle (φ), measured between the normal force (N) and resultant force (R), that is attained when failure just occurs in response to a shearing stress (S).

The cohesion intercept is a used when we want to describe the shear strength soils. The definition is mainly derived from the Mohr-Coulomb failure criterion and it is used to describe the non-frictional part of the shear resistance which is independent of the normal stress.

Please check attachment to Determine the friction angle and cohesion intercept.
