A two-lane, one-way ramp from an urban expressway with a design speed of 30 mi/h connects with a local road at a T-intersection.

The turning roadway has a vertical curb on both sides. Determine the width of the turning roadway if the predominant turning vehicles are single unit trucks with some semi-trailers. Use 0.08 for super-elevation if applicable.

Answer:

30 feet

Explanation:

Given data :

design speed = 30 miles/h

super elevation = 0.08

determine the width of the turning roadway

calculate the value of R = V^2 / 15( e + p)

e = 0.08 , p = 0.2 , v = 30

R = (30)^2 / 15 ( 0.08 + 0.2 )

  = 900 / 15 ( 0.28 )

  ≈ 215 ft

pavement width from the calculation above = 28 ft

width of the turning roadway = pavement width + 2 = 30 feet ( because there are two vertical widths joining up the main road at the T junction )

To 3 significant digits, what is the temperature of water in degrees C, if its pressure is 350 kPa and the quality is 0.01
liq [111]

Answer:

138.9 °C

Explanation:

The datum of quality is saying to us that liquid water is in equilibrium with steam. Saturated water table gives information about this liquid-vapour equilibrium. In figure attached, it can be seen that at 350 kPa of pressure (or 3.5 bar) equilibrium temperature is 138.9 °C

zmey [24]

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.
