A simple supported one-way slab spans 24 ft. In addition to its own weight, it supports an uniformly distributed service live load of 100 psf. A masonry wall, which has a service dead load of 1500 lb/ft, is also supported by the slab along with an uniform service floor live load (a line load) of 500 lb/ft loaded as shown below in the figure. (a) (b) Select the depth of the slab using ACI Code's minimum thickness requirements where deflections are not computed. Design the primary steel and temperature steel and show your results in a sketch. The concrete is light-weight concrete and has a unit weight of 110 lb/ft³. Assume 3/4 inch cover on the reinforcement aand that f' 3 ksi and f₁ = 60 ksi. Use #6 bars for the primary steel and #4 bars for the shrinkage and temperature steel. Assume interior exposure, and use ACI 318-19. Repeat part (a) NOT using the ACI Code's minimum thickness requirements for cases where deflections are not computed. Use #6 bars for the primary steel and #4 bars…
Water (at 10° C has n = 1.31 x 106 m²/s) flows from reservoir A (surface elevation 100 m) through a 2.25-m-diameter concrete pipe (e = 0.36 mm; f=0.014) to reservoir B (surface elevation 91.84 m). If the 2 reservoirs are 17 km apart, find the flow velocity V (to 2 decimal places x.xx) ignoring minor losses. 100 m A L = 17 km P₁ h₁ + = + V² 2g D=2.25 m 91.84 m B + h₂ 2g P₂ = =h₂+ + V
The floor system of an apartment building consists of a 4-inch-thick reinforced concrete slab resting on three steel floor beams, which are in turn supported by two steel girders, as shown below. The areas of cross section of the floor beams and the girders are 18.3 in.2 and 32.7 in.², respectively. Determine the dead load acting on the beam CD. Steel girder (A-32.7 in.2) At I- 25 ft B I Steel column C D Steel floor beam (A =18.3 in.2) I a. 600.0 lb/ft b. 662.3 lb/ft c. 62.3 lb/ft d. 1347.3 lb/ft E 4 in. concrete slab 2 at 12 ft = 24 ft
