Concept explainers
A theme park has a single entrance gate where visitors must stop and pay for parking. The average arrival rate during the peak hour is 150 veh/h and is Poisson distributed. It takes, on average, 20 seconds per vehicle (exponentially distributed) to pay for parking. What is the average waiting time for this queuing system?
a. 4.167 min/veh
b. 2.0 min/veh
c. 1.667 min/veh
d. 0.833 min/veh

- 止 Q.1 Using the lightest W section shape to design the compression member AB shown in Fig. below, the concentrated service dead load and live load is PD-40kips and PL 150kips respectively. The beams and columns are oriented about the major axis and the columns are braced at each story level for out-of-plan buckling. Assume that the same section is used for columns. Use Fy-50 ksi. 32456 Aarrow_forward02. Design a W shape beam is used to support the loads for plastered floor, shown in Figure. Lateral bracing is supplied only at the ends.
