Explanation of Solution

When material changes its phase from liquid to solid or from solid to liquid it is termed as phase transformation. When total amount of solid is transformed into liquid and same liquid can transformed into solid then this is known as reversible transformation,

Express the reversible transformation expression mathematically as follows:

  αL

Here, α is solid and L is the liquid phase.

Thus, the transformation in which the solid and liquid are always in equilibrium is Reversible transformation.

A floor consists of 8 steel beams/girders supporting three 1-way slab panels. The   beams are supported on 6 columns around the perimeter of the roof. The roof is   subjected to a uniform pressure of 150 psf . All beams and girders weigh 90lb//ft.   Use free-body diagrams and statics equations to determine the load and reactions   on all the beams (Beam 1, 2, 3 and 4), girders (Girders 1 and 2), and columns   (Columns 1, 2 and 3).   (we only focused on one-way slabs in the class + pls include FBDs)
