Problem 3- The support bracket for a water pipe that brings water from the city water system into the basement of DeMoss Hall needs to be replaced since it was originally improperly designed. An ENGR 315 class is contracted to determine the proper forces in the x and y direction on the redesigned support at C. Water from the city line flows into DeMoss Hall in a 2- inch diameter pipe at A at 20 ft/sec and pressure 20 psi. The weight of the piping system and enclosed water is 110 lb. The specific gravity of the water is 62.4 lb/ft³. There are no minor or major losses used in the system analysis. Determine the x (horizontal) and y (vertical) components at support C. The figure is based on a vertical view of the system.
