5.15 The arrival rate at a parking lot is 6 veh/min. Vehicles start arriving at 6:00 P.M., and when the queue reaches 36 vehicles, service begins. If company policy is that total vehicle delay should be equal to 500 veh-min, what is the departure rate? (Assume DID/1 queuing and a constant service rate.)

Material Properties

Construction in civil engineering demands high strength, durability, and longevity. These targets can be achieved by better design and analysis, along with the correct choice of materials. Different materials have different properties and hence, they respond and performs differently under the various condition of external loadings. It is therefore a critical task of an engineer to select the right material based on the property that the material is supposed to function in real-time. When speaking about the property, there are different categories of material properties like chemical property, physical property, mechanical property, electrical property, magnetic property, thermal property, etc. These material properties form the basis of material selection in various applications.
