Answer to Problem 19.1Q

12 feet apart.

Explanation of Solution

Ground fault circuit interrupterduplex convenience outlet is defined as the electrical instrument that is used in an electric circuit to break the circuit if there is any imbalance in circuit current. The duplex convenience outlet in living areas should be a maximum of 12 feets apart.

It protects all electric instruments from overheating. GFCI duplex convenience outlet is used to decrease the fire risk in the circuit.

Borrow pit soil is being used to fill an 900,00 yd3 of depression. The properties of borrowpit and in-place fill soils obtained from laboratory test results are as follows:• Borrow pit soil: bulk density 105 pcf, moisture content = 8%, and specific gravity = 2.65• In-place fill soil: dry unit weight =120 pcf, and moisture content = 16%(a) How many yd3 of borrow soil is required?(b) What water mass is needed to achieve 16% moisture in the fill soil?(c) What is the in-place density after a long rain?

Calculate the BMs (bending moments) at all the joints of the beam shown in Fig.1 using the slope deflection method, draw the resulting shear force diagran and bending moment diagram. The beam is subjected to an UDL of w=65m. L=4.5m, L1= 1.8m.  Assume the support at C is pinned, and A and B are roller supports.  E = 200 GPa, I = 250x106 mm4.
