Civil Engineering Questions & Answers

  Find the p-value to provide adequate compressive strength

A new concrete mix is being designed to provide adequate compressive strength for concrete blocks. The specification for a particular application calls for the blocks to have a mean compressive strength greater than 1350 kPa.

  Which of the techniques discussed in class would appropriate

You want to make sure that the hill slope -the earth of which has also been excavated by your teams and the organic soil and vegetation removed- will remain stable for the safety of your workers.

  Calculate the force on the levee gates form storm surge

Higher water level inside the eye, combined with wind results in a "storm surge". Calculate the force on the levee gates form storm surge 20 feet above level of the lake traveling at about 25 ft/sec.

  Determine factored uniform load per foot which beam supports

Structural steel beams are to be placed at 7ft 6in on center under a reinforced concrete floor slab. If they are to support a service dead load D=64 psf of floor area and a service live load L=100 psf of floor area

  Determine discharge-q and depth of flow in the gutter

The continuity equation is just the water balance for the slope or any small portion of the slope and can be given as: p - fp = RO where i = rainfall rate, fp = infiltration capacity, and RO = runoff rate, all expressed as a depth per time

  What contour interval will be drawn if 50ft interval is used

An area that varies in elevation from 463ft - 634ft is being mapped. What contour intervals will be drawn if a 50ft interval is used. Which lines are emphasized.

  What will be the volume

A sample of neon has a volume of 555 mL when it is at a pressure of 813 mmHg. What will be the volume when the pressure is increased to 1138 mmHg?

  What will be the mass of the rod at the end of 20 mins

A common commercial process for the production of so-called "Electronic Grade Silicon" (EGS) is the Siemens process (see figure below). EGS is of ultra-high purity, enough to be used for fabrication of microchips.

  Determine the maximum shear stress at the end

A 600 mm long solid steel shaft is to transmit a torque of 30 N-m, G=90 GPa, diameter 15mm. Determine (a) Maximum shear stress, and (b) Angle of twist (phi) at the end.

  Determine how much water was lost to the atmosphere

If a certain watershed received 1,250 mm of rain during a year, stored 150 mm of water in its soil mantle, and lost 400 mm of water downstream, how much water (in mm) was lost to the atmosphere (mainly through plants)

  Determine what is the rate of leakage in gallons per day

An in-ground swimming pool may have a leak. The 30-ft by 10-ft by 5-ft (depth) pool is filled on June 1. On June 13, a hose, flowing at a rate of 10 gallons per minute, is used to add water to the pool. The hose is turned off after 1 hour.
