How to size an I section under shear bending? Stress calculation should be done at which points, why? Which of the parameters that affect stress are more critical? What changes when the section is L, rectangular, or U? What additional inspections should be made for a safe design or what principles should be used for the check? How to choose the section or point to be checked? Explain with formulas, figures, and equations.

Properties/Characteristics

You are to write down as many properties and/or characteristics of materials as you can think of (not just for one material, but any and all materials). Try to get one that starts with each letter of the alphabet…!

1. The annual precipitation measurements (Pi in cm) for M city, over a 20year period are shown in the following table. Determine the mean, standard deviation, and skew coefficient for this series.

2. Annual precipitation measurements (Pi in cm) for M City, were given in Problem 1. Determine the magnitude of the 10-year precipitation depth if the data fit:

1. the normal distribution.
2. the Gumbel distribution.

How many times was the P10 (normal) exceeded in the 20-year annual precipitation record given in Problem 1?

Please show step by step. Thank you.

Shallow square footing is resting on a dry cohesionless soil. If the groundwater table moves from great depth to ground surface and axial load of the column moves from centroid to e_x = B/3 how will affect bearing capacity (D_f = 0). Assume unite weight of soil is 124.8 pcf.

Define a Primary Standard using the terms public, enforceable, MCL, and health in your definition

A block of weight 12 lbs is placed on a cart of weight 40 lbs that is attached to a spring with a constant of 500 lb/in. The coefficient of static friction between block A and cart B is 0.15, and the coefficient of friction between cart B and the ground is negligible.

a.) Find the maximum amplitude of oscillation of the system to prevent block A from sliding.

b.) Use conservation of energy to determine the maximum velocity and acceleration of the system.

c.) If the cart begins at the maximum amplitude to the right, determine the equation for x(t), v(t), and a(t). [Hint: The template for the equations are in your Physics I book/notes.

Sandstone pore of 20 mm in diameter and 100 mm long with porosity of 15% is prepared for
core flood experiment. The sandstone pore is fully (100%) saturated with water by injecting
water with viscosity of 1cp at volumetric flow rate of 20 cubic mm/sec. A pressure drop of 1
atm was recorded across the pore during the injection process.
i. What is the absolute permeability of the sandstone pore sample in mD?
ii. What is the pore volume of sandstone sample?
iii. The sandstone pore sample is flooded by oil with viscosity of 2 cp until
water saturation reaching to 25%. Calculate the oil volume inside the pore
at the end of flood

The shield of negligible weight is held at an angle of 60° to deflect the 40-mm-diameter water stream, which is discharged at 0.02 m3/s. The guide on the shield deflects 30% of the discharge upward. Calculate the momentum of the flow exiting the nozzle Calculate the x component of the flow on the top side of the shield Calculate the y component of the flow on the top side of the shield Calculate the x component of the flow on the bottom side of the shield Calculate the y component of the flow on the bottom side of the shield Calculate the x component of the force required to hold the shield in place Include units in all your submissions
