An L = 32-ft-long soldier beam is used as a key component of an earth retention system at an excavation site. The soldier beam is subjected to a soil loading that is linearly distributed from WA=460 lb/ft to wc=270 lb/ft, as shown. The soldier bearn can be idealized as a cantilever with a fixed support at A. Added support is supplied by a tieback anchor at B, which exerts a force of P = 5400 lb on the soldier beam at a = 24 ft. Determine the horizontal deflection of the soldier beam at point C. Assume El = 6.6 × 108 lb-in.². Deflection is positive to the left. a Tieback anchor WA WC C B Soldier beam A L

Measuring site work, Excavation and Piling

Bid drawings typically include very little material about the precise requirements of site work operations, measuring site work and excavation work differs from measuring most other works on a construction project. The actual site work conditions are not provided and also the dimensions of the excavations are not known during the pre-construction phase. The precise measurement of the excavation and backfill of the earth material and topsoil is important for a contractor to decide upon the total cost required for the process. All the works should be carried out under OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) standards to ensure the safety of the workers.
