Answer:
Total BF for the interior wall is 7.50BD
Explanation:
Given Data:
· Size of stud = 2” x 6”
· Height of Wall = 8 ft
· Top plates = 2
· Bottom Plate = 1
BF stands for board feet in lumber/wood terminology. It is the unit of volume.
1 BF (Board feet) = 1 ft x 1 ft x 1 inch
Since there are total three plates at top and bottom, we have to deduct their thickness from wall height to calculate height of stud.
Height of stud = 8’ – 3 x 2” = 7’6” = 7.5 ft
Board feet of one stud = 7.50 6/12 x 2 = 7.50 BD
Total BF for the interior wall is 7.50BD
Answer:
(a)
(b)
Explanation:
(a)
Volume, V of unit cell
Number of unit cells, N
Where
is weight of material and
is density of material
(b)
Number of atoms in paper clip
This is a product of number of unit cells and number of atoms per cell
Since iron has 2 atoms per cell
Number of atoms of iron=
The weight of the specimen in SSD condition is 373.3 cc
<u>Explanation</u>:
a) Apparent specific gravity = 
Where,
A = mass of oven dried test sample in air = 1034 g
B = saturated surface test sample in air = 1048.9 g
C = apparent mass of saturated test sample in water = 975.6 g
apparent specific gravity =
= 
Apparent specific gravity = 2.88
b) Bulk specific gravity 

= 2.76
c) Bulk specific gravity (SSD):


= 2.80
d) Absorption% :


Absorption = 1.44 %
e) Bulk Volume :


=
