Question
Chapter 9, Problem 1RQ
To determine
The “rough-in” stage of residential wiring installation.
Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
The rough-in" stage in building or remodeling of a home is defined as the stage of the construction project which begins after the completion of basic framing. The initial wiring and plumbing installations, installation of circuit conduct and mounting of electrical boxes are done during this phase.
This stage always starts with a plan by the engineer of the architect outlining everything and its estimates. The National electrical code (NEC) and other local electrical codes are required to be followed during this stage.
It is the responsibility of the electrician to select the correct type of conductor, type of hardware, suitable material and wiring method as per the guidelines of the National electrical code.
The manufacturers will provide equipment and instructions for installing equipment to the electrical contractor. These instructions should be strictly followed for installation during this stage of wiring.

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…
