Q. A Proctor compaction test in the laboratory on a borrow pit soil gives a maximum dry unit weight of 19 kN/m3 and optimum water content of 11.5%. The bulk unit weight and water content of the soil in the borrow pit are 17.2 kN/m3 and 8.2%, respectively. A highway fill is to be constructed using this soil. The specifications require the fill to be compacted to 95% Proctor compaction.
(a) How many cubic meters of borrow pit material is needed for 1 m3 of highway fill?
(b) The water content at 95% compaction is 11% on the dry side and 12% on the wet side of the compaction curve. What is the minimum additional weight of water per unit volume to achieve 95% Proctor compaction?
(c) If the soil is compacted on the wet side, what will be the additional weight of water per unit volume to achieve 95% Proctor compaction?
(d) How many truckloads of soil will be required for a 100,000 m3 highway embankment if each truck has a capacity of 12 m3?
Assume the rate constant for BOD decay is 0.2 d^-1, the mean velocity of the stream is 0.5 m s^-1, and the initial concentration is 100 mg L^-1 at x=0. Plot the resulting concentration with downstream distance x in km.
If the maximum total acceleration of the train must not exceed 1.5 m/s^2, determine the shortest distance in which the train can reach a speed of 72 km/h, and determine the corresponding constant rate of acceleration at.
The time between truck arrivals at the station is exponentially distributed with a mean arrival rate of 1.5 veh/min. the time it takes vehicles to be weighed is exponentially distributed with a mean rate of 2 veh/min.
Vapour from the second effect is condensed at a pressure corresponding to 325 K. The heat transfer area is 10 m2 and the overall heat transfer coefficients are 3 and 2 kW/m2 in the first and second effects respectively.
What is the settling velocity of a .5 micrometer silica sphere at 20 degrees Celsius and an ambient pressure of 150 kPa. The density of silica is 2600 kg/cubic meter.
The motion of a particle on the surface of a right circular cylinder is defined by the relations, R = A, theta = 2pi(t), and z=Bsin(2pi)(nt), where A is a constant. Determine the magnitudes of the velocity and acceleration of the particle at any t..
We would continue embankment work even if winter season and my question is what is swelling amount of compacted soil for 30cm thickness and 95% compaction degree by freezing.
Two reservoirs are connected with a 30" diameter pipe with a length of 19,680 ft. The water surface elevation in the upper reservoir of the upper reservoir is 984 ft, lower reservoir 886 ft and the elevation at the midpoint is 918 ft.
A circular cam is in contact with a rectangular lifter and used to intermittently operate a piece of equipment at the end of a lifter arm. The lifter is constrained to move only in the vertical direction. The cam has a radius of r = 7.2in and is rota..
