Use: f' =41.4 MPa and assume that concrete has attained strength of fci =34.5 MPa at the time of transfer. The initial prestress force is (Psi-1112 kN). The service deal load D.L = 3.65 kN/m (not include self weight of beam). The service live load L.L=14.6 kN/m. Use n=7.

- 4.36 A pipe slopes upward in the direction of liquid flow at an angle of 30° with the horizontal. What is the pressure gradient in the flow direction along the pipe in terms of the specific weight of the liquid, y, if the liquid is decelerating (accelerating opposite to flow direction) at a rate of 0.3 g?arrow_forward4.25 In this flow passage, the velocity is varying with time. The velocity varies with time at section A-A as 4m V-41/1-230/1 2.25- S to At time t = 0.50s, it is known that at section A-A the velocity gradient in the s direction is +2.1 m/s per meter. Given that to is 0.6 s and assuming quasi-1-D flow, answer the following questions for time t = 0.5 s: a. What is the local acceleration at A-A? b. What is the convective acceleration at A-A?
