A conventional consolidated drained (CD) triaxial test is conducted on sand. The cell pressure is 100 kPa, and the applied axial stress at failure is 200 kPa.
Required:
a. Plot the Mohr circles for both (1) initial and (2) failure stress conditions.
b. Determine Phi (assume c=0)
c. Determine (3) the shear stress on the failure plane at failure Tao,ff and find (4) the theoretical angle of the failure plane in the specimen.
d. Determine (5) the maximum shear stress at failure Tao,max and (6) the angle of the plane on which Tao,max acts; calculate (7) the available shear stress on the plane.
e. Calculate factor of safety (F.S.) on (8) the plane of Tao,max and (9) the failure plane.
Name three types of metamorphic foliations, and draw a small sketch that shows a situation where a metamorphic foliation could cause problems in an excavation.
a concrete cylinder having a diameter of 6 in and a gauge length of 12 in is tested in compression the results of the test are reported in the table as load vs contraction. Draw the stress strain diagram using scales of 1 in=.5ksi
A stream of Refrigerant-134a at 1 MPa and 12 C is mixed with another stream at 1 MPa and 60 C. If the mass flow rate of the cold stream is twice that of the hot one, determine the specific volume of the exit stream.
The profile of the bridge and tunnel. Devise a vertical alignment to connect the tunnel and bridge by determining the highest common design speed for the sag and crest (equal tangent) vertical curves needed.
A concrete sidewalk slab is 17.5 MPa, 4 inches deep, and 2 m long. A tree root has pushed it up so there is a 1 inch lip at the junction with the adjacent slab, and the slab is effectively 1 inch above its base underneath
Jackie is now exactly 40 years old, and plans to invest a recurring amount over the next 15 years (until age 55) in an account bearing 10% annual interest. She plans to retire at age 65 and live to age 100 (don't we all).
Find the maximum deflection of a wooden bearer which has three supports; one at each edge (2) and one in the middle (2m from each other). Bearer holds a UDL over its whole length (4m) of 600 N/m.
Calculate the Air flow required in CFM to transfer 5,004 BTU/Hour in an HVAC duct given that the temperature difference (Delta-T) between the room and the supply air is 23 DegF.
A ball is thrown vertically upward with a speed of 15m/s. Determine the time of flight when it returns to its original position.
A coal-fired power plant produces a net electrical output of 500 MW. The composition of the coal burned is C= 72 %, H= 6 %, S= 3.5 %, O= 6 %, N= 1 %, and ash= 12 % by weight. It's heating value (HV) is 30200 kJ/kg. The net thermal efficiency is 36..
A 1.6-m wide rectangular channel carries 1.8 m3/s at a depth of 0.85 m. The channel undergoes a smooth transition in which the channel bottom rises 15 cm and contracts to a width of 1.3 m. Assuming friction losses are negligible, determine the dep..
A study of the traffic using a tunnel showed that the following speed-concentration relationship applies. Find the capacity of the tunnel, the values of speed and oncentration at capacity, and the jam concentration.
