Answer:
The lowest point of the curve is at 239+42.5 ft where elevation is 124.16 ft.
Explanation:
Length of curve is given as
is given as
The K value is given from the table 3.3 for 55 mi/hr is 115. So the value of A is given as
A is given as
With initial grade, the elevation of PVC is
The station is given as
Low point is given as
The station of low point is given as
The elevation is given as
So the lowest point of the curve is at 239+42.5 ft where elevation is 124.16 ft.
Answer:
a)σ₁ = 265.2 MPa
b)σ₂ = -172.8 MPa
c)
d)Range = 438 MPa
Explanation:
Given that
Mean stress ,σm= 46.2 MPa
Stress amplitude ,σa= 219 MPa
Lets take
Maximum stress level = σ₁
Minimum stress level =σ₂
The mean stress given as
2 x 46.2 = σ₁ + σ₂
σ₁ + σ₂ = 92.4 MPa --------1
The amplitude stress given as
2 x 219 = σ₁ - σ₂
σ₁ - σ₂ = 438 MPa --------2
By adding the above equation
2 σ₁ = 530.4
σ₁ = 265.2 MPa
-σ₂ = 438 -265.2 MPa
σ₂ = -172.8 MPa
Stress ratio
Range = 265.2 MPa - ( -172.8 MPa)
Range = 438 MPa
