For given distributed loads, see figures below, determine resultant and moments around load ends (points A and B). Assume p = 2kN/m.

A permeability test apparatus of diameter 82.5 mm contains a column of fine sand 460 mm long. When water flows through it under a constant head at a rate of 191 cm3/minute, the loss of head between two points 250 mm apart is 380 mm. Calculate the coefficient of permeability of the fine sand. If falling head test is made on the same sample using a standpipe of diameter of 30 mm, in what time will the water level in standpipe fall from 1560 mm to 1066 mm above outflow level.
