- Group Problem: You are planning to build a log cabin in Northern Minnesota on a remote hill with a beautiful view of the setting sun. You will drag the logs up a long sometimes rocky hill to the building site by means of a rope attached to a winch. You will need a rope for this job so you aim to know how much weight the rope would safely support. You are operating on a tight budget so matching the rope strength would be a cost saver. You know that the logs are heavy, and estimate the heaviest as 1,000 lbs. From maps you verify the hill is steeped at an angle of = 70° with respect to the vertical, and you estimate a coefficient of kinetic friction between a log and the earthen hill as 0.5. When pulling a log you will ensure that the uphill acceleration is never more than 3.0 ft/s². The maximum recommended load is th of the nominal strength for the ropes considered as stated on the product labels, you have three ropes in mind: 12 kN, 18 kN, & 24 kN.

- Writing reports at any stage of a project to some organizations aremandatory. As a supervising engineer, discuss the following reports as they are used in engineering projects (i) Status Reports (ii) Progress Reports (iii) Project Crisis Reports (iv) End of Project Reportarrow_forward2. Soledad Bautista, the engineering manager, delegates tasks as a good manager should. However, Mark Hermosa, the engineering director, has the bad habit of calling up Soledad unexpectedly to get detailed reports on various ongoing activities in Soledad's department. Soledad does not want to hold daily staff meetings in order to satisfy Mark's information needs because Soledad is quite certain that asking her professional staff to stand by and make daily reports will definitely be counterproductive, as all of them are known to prefer their independence. What should Soledad do?arrow_forwardThere are 30 Civil Engineers in the room; 16 of them are specialized in horizontal construction (HC) ; 14 in vertical construction (VC); and the others are in underground construction (UC).
