The proposed grading at a project site will consist of 25,100 m3 of cut and 23,300 m3 of fill and will be a balanced earthwork j

ob. The cut area has an average moisture content of 8.3%. The fill will be compacted to an average relative compaction of 93% based on a maximum dry unit weight of 18.3 kN/m3 and an optimum moisture content of 12.9% obtained from the modified Proctor test. Please round all the final answers in this problem to integers. The volume of water that will be required to bring these soils to the optimum moisture content is _________

Answer:

the volume of water that will be required to bring these soils to the optimum moisture content is 1859 kL

Explanation:

Given that;

volume of cut = 25,100 m³

Volume of dry soil fill = 23,300 m³

Weight of the soil will be;

⇒ 93% × 18.3 kN/m³ × 23,300 m³

= 0.93 × 426390 kN 3

= 396,542.7 kN  

Optimum moisture content = 12.9 %

Required amount of moisture = (12.9 - 8.3)% = 4.6 %

So,

Weight of water required = 4.6% × 396,542.7 = 18241 kN

Volume of water required = 18241 / 9.81 = 1859 m³

Volume of water required = 1859 kL

Therefore, the volume of water that will be required to bring these soils to the optimum moisture content is 1859 kL

What are the inputs and outputs of a sailboat?
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

  • sailing ships were the primary means of maritime trade and transportation; exploration across the seas and oceans was reliant on sail for anything other than the shortest distances. Naval power in this period used sail to varying degrees depending on the current technology, culminating in the gun-armed sailing warships of the Age of Sail.

What is the function maintenance? List some important steps for vibration monitoring based maintenance.
Mrrafil [7]

The maintenance is in charge of controlling that all the machines of a company are constantly running in order to avoid damages that cause loss of money when the machines fail.

The maintenance based on vibration monitoring allows to predict failures in some rotating machines such as:

1. worn bearings

2.alignment

3.balance

4. affected gears

5. bent shafts

6. rocks

7.gags

8. eccentricity

9. failures of electrical origin

A reciprocating compressor takes a compresses it to 5 bar. Assuming that the compression is reversible and has an index, k, of 1
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

final temperature is 424.8 K

so correct option is e 424.8 K

Explanation:

given data

pressure p1 = 1 bar

pressure p2 = 5 bar

index k = 1.3

temperature t1 = 20°C = 293 k

to find out

final temperature  t2

solution

we have given compression is reversible and has an index k

so we can say temperature is

\frac{t2}{t1}= [\frac{p2}{p1}]^{\frac{k-1}{k} }  ...........1

put here all these value and we get t2

\frac{t2}{293}= [\frac{5}{1}]^{\frac{1.3-1}{1.3} }

t2 = 424.8

final temperature is 424.8 K

so correct option is e
