Concept explainers

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.

A hydraulic excavator with a 2 cubic yard heaped capacity bucket is excavating in common earth. The depth of the excavation is 8 feet. The excavator has a maximum rated digging depth of 16 feet. The excavated material will be positioned so that the swing angle is 75 degrees. The job efficiency is 55 minutes per hour. Find the expected production per hour.

For the beam shown, the magnitude of the concentrated load is P = 11 kN, the magnitude of the couple is MB = 190 kN-m, and the beam lengths are a = 4.9 m and b= 14.7 m. (a) derive equations for the shear force V and the bending moment M for any location in the beam. Place the origin at point. A. (b) use the derived functions to plot the shear-force and bending-moment diagrams for the beam. Use your diagrams to determine the magnitudes of the maximum shear force and the maximum bending moment. Note that answers may be positive or negative. Here, "maximum" refers to the largest magnitude value, but you should enter your shear force and bending moment with the correct sign, using the sign convention presented in Section 7.2 of the textbook. If the magnitudes of the largest positive and largest negative values are the same, enter a positive number. A MB B b C X
