Explanation of Solution

Calculation:

Consider the general U.S. standard wrench sizes in ‘in.’:

The sizes are listed below which are normally used in U.S.

1/4'',5/16'',7/16'',1/2'',9/16'',5/8'',3/4'',13/16'',15/16'',1-1/8'',1-5/16'',1-1/2''

,1-11/16'',1-7/8''

The calculation for wrench size in metric and U.S. units are shown below:

For the wrench size 1/4'':

Convert the wrench size from inch to mm,

1/4''=0.25in.=0.25in.×25.4mm1in.[1in.=25.4mm]=6.35mm

Convert the wrench size from inch to foot as,

1/4''=0.25in.=0.25in.×0.0833ft1in[1in=0.0833ft]=0.0208ft

For the wrench size 5/16'':

Convert the wrench size from inch to mm,

5/16''=0.3125in.=0.3125in.×25.4mm1in.=7.937mm

Convert the wrench size from inch to foot as,

5/16''=0.25in.=0.3125in.×0.0833ft1in=0.026ft

For the wrench size 7/16'':

Convert the wrench size from inch to mm,

7/16''=0.4375in.=0.4375in.×25.4mm1in.=11.11mm

Convert the wrench size from inch to foot as,

7/16''=0.4375in.=0.4375in.×0.0833ft1in=0.036ft

For the wrench size 1/2'':

Convert the wrench size from inch to mm,

1/2''=0.5in.=0.5in.×25.4mm1in.=12.7mm

Convert the wrench size from inch to foot as,

1/2''=0.5in.=0.5in.×0.0833ft1in=0.042ft

For the wrench size 9/16'':

Convert the wrench size from inch to mm,

9/16''=0.5625in.=0.5625in.×25.4mm1in.=14.28mm

Convert the wrench size from inch to foot as,

9/16''=0.5625in.=0.5625in.×0.0833ft1in=0.046ft

For the wrench size 5/8'':

Convert the wrench size from inch to mm,

5/8''=0.625in.=0.625in.×25.4mm1in.=15.87mm

Convert the wrench size from inch to foot as,

5/8''=0.625in.=0.625in.×0.0833ft1in=0.052ft

For the wrench size 3/4'':

Convert the wrench size from inch to mm,

3/4''=0.75in.=0.75in.×25.4mm1in.=19.05mm

Convert the wrench size from inch to foot as,

3/4''=0.75in.=0.75in.×0.0833ft1in=0.062ft

For the wrench size 13/16'':

Convert the wrench size from inch to mm

13/16''=0.8125in.=0.8125in.×25.4mm1in.=20.63mm

Convert the wrench size from inch to foot

13/16''=0.8125in.=0.8125in.×0.0833ft1in=0.067ft

For the wrench size 1516":

Convert the wrench size from inch to mm,

15/16''=0.9375in.=0.9375in.×25.4mm1in.=23.81mm

Convert the wrench size from inch to foot as,

15/16''=0.9375in.=0.9375in.×0.0833ft1in=0.078ft

For the wrench size 1-1/8'':

Convert the wrench size from inch to mm

1-1/8''=98"=1.125in.×25.4mm1in.=28.57mm

Convert the wrench size from inch to foot

1-1/8''=98"=1.125in.×0.0833ft1in=0.093ft

For the wrench size 1-5/16'':

Convert the wrench size from inch to mm

1-5/16''=2116"=1.3125in.×25.4mm1in.=33.33mm

Convert the wrench size from inch to foot

1-5/16''=2116"=1.3125in.×0.0833ft1in=0.109ft

For the wrench size 1-1/2'':

Convert the wrench size from inch to mm

1-1/2''=32"=1.5in.×25.4mm1in.=38.1mm

Convert the wrench size from inch to foot as,

1-1/2''=32"=1.5in.×0.0833ft1in=0.124ft

For the wrench size 1-11/16'':

Convert the wrench size from inch to mm,

1-11/16''=2716"=1.6875in.×25.4mm1in.=42.86mm

Convert the wrench size from inch to foot as,

1-11/16''=2716"=1.6875in.×0.0833ft1in=0.14ft

For wrench size 1-7/8'':

Convert the wrench size from inch to mm

1-7/8''=158"=1.875in.×25.4mm1in.=47.62mm

Convert the wrench size from inch to foot

1-7/8''=158"=1.875in.×0.0833ft1in=0.156ft

Tthe calculated wrench sizes in metric and U.S. units are tabulated in Table 1.

Table 1

1-1/2"38.10.124
1-11/16"42.860.14
1-7/8"47.620.156

Conclusion:

Thus, the standard wrench sizes in metric and U.S. units are calculated and tabulated in Table 1.

When using a work breakdown structure (WBS) for a project why it is necessary to break down activities?
As shown in the figure below, a 1.5 m × 1.5 m footing is carrying a 400 kN load. P Depth (m) 0.0 1.0 2.0 Df Groundwater table (Yw = 9.81 kN/m³) 3.5 Yt = 16.5 kN/m³ E = 9,000 kPa Sandy soil Ysat 17.5 kN/m³ E = 15,000 kPa 6.0 Stiff Clay (OCR = 2) Bedrock Ysat 18.0 kN/m³ eo = 0.8 Cc = 0.15, Cr = 0.02 Eu =40,000 kPa (a) Estimate the immediate settlement beneath the center of the footing. Assuming that Poisson's ratios of sand and soft clay are 0.3 and 0.5, respectively. Use numerical integration approach. For the calculations, use layers (below the bottom of the footing) of thicknesses: 1 m; 1.5 m, and 2.5 m. (b) Determine the primary consolidation settlement beneath the center of the footing. (c) Redo Part (b) if OCR=1.1. Note: Use the 2:1 method to determine the stress increase below the footing. For parts (b) and (c), use the one-dimensional consolidation theory.
