An interior beam supports the floor of a classroom in a school building. The beam spans 26 ft. and the tributary width is 16 ft.

Dead load is 20 psf. Find:
a. Basic floor live load Lo in psf
b. Reduced floor live load L in psf
c. Uniformly distributed total load to the beam in lb/ft.
d. Compare the loading in part c with the alternate concentrated load requried by the Code. Which loading is more critical for bending, shear, and deflection.?

Answer:

a. $L_o$ = 40 psf

b. L ≈ 30.80 psf

c. The uniformly distributed total load for the beam = 812.8 ft./lb

d. The alternate concentrated load is more critical to bending , shear and deflection

Explanation:

The given parameters of the beam the beam are;

The span of the beam = 26 ft.

The width of the tributary, b = 16 ft.

The dead load, D = 20 psf.

a. The basic floor live load is given as follows;

The uniform floor live load, = 40 psf

The floor area, A = The span × The width = 26 ft. × 16 ft. = 416 ft.²

Therefore, the uniform live load, $L_o$ = 40 psf

b. The reduced floor live load, L in psf. is given as follows;

$L = L_o \times \left ( 0.25 + \dfrac{15}{\sqrt{k_{LL} \cdot A_T} } \right)$

For the school, $K_{LL}$ = 2

Therefore, we have;

$L = 40 \times \left ( 0.25 + \dfrac{15}{\sqrt{2 \times 416} } \right) = 30.80126 \ psf$

The reduced floor live load, L ≈ 30.80 psf

c. The uniformly distributed total load for the beam, $W_d$ = b × $W_{D + L}$ =

∴ $W_d$ = = 16 × (20 + 30.80) ≈ 812.8 ft./lb

The uniformly distributed total load for the beam, $W_d$ = 812.8 ft./lb

d. For the uniformly distributed load, we have;

$V_{max}$ = 812.8 × 26/2 = 10566.4 lbs

$M_{max}$ = 812.8 × 26²/8 = 68,681.6 ft-lbs

$v_{max}$ = 5×812.8×26⁴/348/EI = 4,836,329.333/EI

For the alternate concentrated load, we have;

$P_L$ = 1000 lb

$W_{D}$ = 20 × 16 = 320 lb/ft.

$V_{max}$ = 1,000 + 320 × 26/2 = 5,160 lbs

$M_{max}$ = 1,000 × 26/4 + 320 × 26²/8 = 33,540 ft-lbs

$v_{max}$ = 1,000 × 26³/(48·EI) + 5×320×26⁴/348/EI = 2,467,205.74713/EI

Therefore, the loading more critical to bending , shear and deflection, is the alternate concentrated load

Make two lists of applications of matrices, one for those that require jagged matrices and one for those that require rectangula

Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

You can utilize barbed clusters to store inadequate grids. On the off chance that there are a great many lines yet each line has just 4 or 5 associations with different segments, at that point as opposed to utilizing a 1000x1000 cluster you can utilize a 1000 line rough exhibit while you simply store the components that the present section has association with another segment. Other utilization can be done on account of query tables. Query tables will be tables which have different qualities concerning a solitary key where the quantity of qualities isn't fixed. Aside from this, barbed clusters have an exceptionally set number of utilization cases. Multidimensional exhibits then again have plenty of utilizations. It is utilized to store a great deal of information reliably on the grounds that the greater part of the information is put away is steady concerning which section compares to what information. Aside from that it very well may be utilized to make thick diagrams or sparse(not effective), plotting information. Another utilization case would be used as an impermanent stockpiling for the figurings that need to tail them and utilize the past information like in powerful programming.

The acceleration of a particle is given by a = 2t − 10, where a is in meters per second squared and t is in seconds. Determine t

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer

given,

a = 2 t - 10

velocity function

we know,

$\dfrac{dv}{dt}=a$

$\dfrac{dv}{dt}=(2t-10)$

integrating both side

$\int dv =\int (2t -10) dt$

v = t² - 10 t + C

at t = 0 v = 3

so, 3 = 0 - 0 + C

C = 3

Velocity function is equal to v = t² - 10 t + 3

Again we know,

$\dfrac{dx}{dt}=v$

$\dfrac{dx}{dt}=(t^2-10t + 3)$

integrating both side

$\int dx =\int (t^2-10t + 3)dt$

$x = \dfrac{t^3}{3}- 10\dfrac{t^2}{2} + 3 t + C$

now, at t= 0 s = -4

$-4 = \dfrac{0^3}{3}- 10\dfrac{0^2}{2} + 0 + C$

C = -4

So,

$x = \dfrac{t^3}{3}- 10\dfrac{t^2}{2} + 3 t-4$

Position function is equal to $x = \dfrac{t^3}{3}- 10\dfrac{t^2}{2} + 3 t-4$
