A flat site is being considered for a new school that will have a steel frame and brick façade. The steel columns will have a ma

ximum load of 250 kips, and the planned column support will consist of a 6 foot by 6 foot square footing placed 2 feet below the ground surface (to the bottom of the footing). Subsurface conditions consist of a 15-foot-thick layer of uniform silty sand (unit weight = 122 pcf, soil modulus = 160,000 psf) over stiff clay (unit weight = 118 pcf, soil modulus = 230,000 psf). Groundwater is deep.
a) Sketch the problem (freehand, not to scale) and state any necessary assumptions.
b) Calculate the immediate (elastic) settlement.

A particle moving on a straight line has acceleration a = 5-3t, and its velocity is 7 at time t = 2. If s(t) is the distance fro
Vikki [24]

Given acceleration a = 5-3t, and its velocity is 7 at time t = 2, the value of s2 - s1 = 7

<h3>How to solve for the value of s2 - s1</h3>

We have

= \frac{dv}{dt} =v't = 5-3t\\\\\int\limits^a_b {v'(t)} \, dt

= \int\limits^a_b {(5-3t)} \, dt

5t - \frac{3t^2}{2} +c

v2 = 5x2 -  3x2 + c

= 10-6+c

= 4+c

s(t) = \frac{5t^2}{2} -\frac{t^3}{2} +3t + c

S2 - S1

=(5*\frac{4}{2} -\frac{8}{2} +3*2*c)-(\frac{5}{2} *1^2-\frac{1^2}{2} +3*1*c)

= 6 + 6+c - 2+3+c

12+c-5+c = 0

7 = c

A seamless pipe 800mm diameter contains a fluid under a pressure of 2N/mm2. If the permissible tensile stress is 100N/mm2, find
Bad White [126]

Answer:

8 mm

Explanation:

Given:

Diameter, D = 800 mm

Pressure, P = 2 N/mm²

Permissible tensile stress, σ = 100 N/mm²

Now,

for the pipes, we have the relation as:

\sigma=\frac{\textup{PD}}{\textup{2t}}

where, t is the thickness

on substituting the respective values, we get

100=\frac{\textup{2\times800}}{\textup{2t}}

or

t = 8 mm

Hence, the minimum thickness of pipe is 8 mm
