Deliverables:
1) Determine if the existing flocculation basins are sufficient to accommodate the
projected future capacity.
A) Current Capacity: 22.5 MGD
B) Future Capacity: 34.5 MGD for 110,000 residents
C) If not, determine the number of additional flocculation basins needed to
accommodate the future capacity of 34.5 MGD.
a) Ignore this bullet point
2) Specify the basic dimensions (length, width, water height, weir dimensions, etc.)
of these additional flocculation basins.
3) Specify the design flow rate, detention time, and the flow-through velocity for
each basin under the maximum future capacity of 34.5 MGD, assuming one of

A2.3- a simply supported reinforced concrete beam of rectangular cross-section is shown in Figure 3. The beam
supports a uniform dead load of 20 kN/m (excluding the beam self-weight) and a uniform live load of 20 kN/m.
The beam width is restricted to 400 mm. The maximum aggregate size is 20 mm. We are using 10M bars for
stirrups and 25M bars for tension steel. Concrete is type N with f'c = 35 MPa and fy = 400 MPa. The beam needs
to have 2hr fire rating.
Design the beam for the given load, considering the reinforcement ratio p < 0.5 pb
