Summary

Students learn about the variety of materials used by engineers in the design and construction of modern bridges. They also find out about the material properties important to bridge construction and consider the advantages and disadvantages of steel and concrete as common bridge-building materials to handle compressive and tensile forces.

This engineering curriculum aligns to Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS).

Engineering Connection

When designing structures such as bridges, engineers carefully choose the materials by anticipating the forces the materials (the structural components) are expected to experience during their lifetimes. Usually, ductile materials such as steel, aluminum and other metals are used for components that experience tensile loads. Brittle materials such as concrete, ceramics and glass are used for components that experience compressive loads.

Learning Objectives

After this lesson, students should be able to:

List several common materials used the design and construction of structures.

Describe several factors that engineers consider when selecting materials for the design of a bridge.

Explain the advantages and disadvantages of common materials used in engineering structures (steel and concrete).

Which of the following is a possible unit of ultimate tensile strength?

levacccp [35]

Answer:

Newton per square meter (N/m2)

Explanation:

Required

Unit of ultimate tensile strength

Ultimate tensile strength (U) is calculated using:

$U = \frac{Ultimate\ Force}{Area}$

The units of force is N (Newton) and the unit of Area is m^2

So, we have:

$U = \frac{N}{m^2}$

$U = N/m^2$

<em>Hence: (c) is correct</em>

A three-phase line has a impedance of 0.4+j2.7 per phase. The line feeds 2 balanced three-phase loads that are connected in para

mamaluj [8]

Answer:

a) 4160 V

b) 12 kW and 81 kVAR

c) 54 kW and 477 kVAR

Explanation:

1) The phase voltage is given as:

$V_p=\frac{3810.5}{\sqrt{3} }=2200 V$

The complex power S is given as:

$S=560.1(0.707 +j0.707)+132=660\angle 36.87^o \ KVA$

$where\ S^*\ is \ the \ conjugate\ of \ S\\Therefore\ S^*=660\angle -36.87^oKVA$

The line current I is given as:

$I=\frac{S^*}{3V}=\frac{660000\angle -36.87}{3(2200)} =100\angle -36.87^o\ A$

The phase voltage at the sending end is:

$V_s=2200\angle 0+100\angle -36.87(0.4+j2.7)=2401.7\angle 4.58^oV$

The magnitude of the line voltage at the source end of the line ( $V_{sL}=\sqrt{3} |V_s|=\sqrt{3} *2401.7=4160V$

b) The Total real and reactive power loss in the line is:

$S_l=3|I|^2(R+jX)=3|100|^2(0.4+j2.7)=12000+j81000$

The real power loss is 12000 W = 12 kW

The reactive power loss is 81000 kVAR = 81 kVAR

c) The sending power is:

$S_s=3V_sI^*=3(2401.7\angle 4.58)(100\angle 36.87)=54000+j477000$

The Real power delivered by the supply = 54000 W = 54 kW

The Reactive power delivered by the supply = 477000 VAR = 477 kVAR
