Answer:
a) the two-way concrete joist framing system
Explanation:
A waffle slab is also known as ribbed slab, it is a slab which as waffle like appearance with holes beneath. It is adopted in construction projects that has long length, length more than 12m. The waffle slab is rigid, therefore it is used in building that needs minimal vibration.
Answer:
I. Tension (cable A) ≈ 6939 lbf
II. Tension (cable B) ≈ 17199 lbf
Explanation:
Let's begin by listing out the data that we were given:
mass of beam (m) = 570 lb, deceleration (cable A) = -20 ft/s², deceleration (cable B) = -2 ft/s²,
g = 32.17405 ft/s²
The tension on an object is given by the product of mass of the object by gravitational force plus/minus the product of mass by acceleration.
Mathematically represented thus:
T = mg + ma
where:
T = tension, m = mass, g = gravitational force,
a = acceleration
I. For Cable A, we have:
T = mg + ma = (570 * 32.17405) + [570 * (-20)]
T = 18339.2085 - 11400 = 6939.2085
T ≈ 6939 lbf
II. For Cable B, we have:
T = mg + ma = (570 * 32.17405) + [570 * (-2)]
T = 18339.2085 - 1140 = 17199.2085
T ≈ 17199 lbf
