You have been employed by Challenger Constructions as their first Chief Information Security Officer (CISO). You have been tasked by the Board to conduct a review of the company’s risks and start to deploy security policies to protect their data and resources.

You are concerned that the company has no existing contingency plans in case of a disaster.

The Board indicated that some of their basic requirements for contingency planning include:

  • A Recovery Time Objective (RTO) of 4 hours
  • A Recovery Point Objective (RPO) of 6 hours

Based on these, you now need to determine:

  • The Maximum Tolerable Downtime (MTD),
  • The Work Recovery Time (WRT) and
  • The system and data recovery priority

The Board expects that you will propose a Business Continuity Plan (BCP) for Challenger Constructions. The Board expects you to use as much of their existing resources as possible for the BCP, but understands that some additional resources may be required. Your BCP proposal must clearly state what additional resources, in terms of hardware, software and locations, are required.

Tasks:

You are to develop a proposal for a Business Continuity Plan (BCP) for Challenger Constructions in accordance with the Board's instructions above. Your proposed BCP must include:

  1. An overview of the entire BCP,
  2. A Business Impact Analysis
  3. An Incident Response Plan
  4. A Backup plan,
  5. A Disaster Recovery plan,

Specifically, how did the declaration passed by the Stamp Act Congress and The Declaratory Act passed by Parliament shift the entire focus/debate of discussion during the mid-1760’s? After that, was compromise possible? Why/why not?

2- How did the Nullification Crisis in 1832 (South Carolina) mirror the economic differences of north/south and the issue of states’ rights? How did these same issues bring about a final split of the union in 1861?

Which of the following statement is correct?

Select one:

a) Adding less water than required in concrete results in higher workability

b) Adding more water than required in concrete results in higher compressive strength

c) Adding more water than required in concrete results in more voids and higher porosity

Design of a prestressed beam in the service limit state

Loads:

Service load p = 40 kN/m

Self weight from adjacent structures g1 = 30 kN/m

Self weight of beam g2 = 7 kN/m

Dimensions:
b = 300 mm, h = 900 mm, d = 800 mm,

L = 8000 mm Ap = 12 tendons a 100 mm2

Material data:
Tendons:

fp0,1k = 1550 N/mm2

fpk = 1700 N/mm2

fpk = 1700 N/mm2

p,max = min{0,8fpk ; 0,9fp0,1k}= 1360 N/mm2

Concrete:

B45, Exposure class XC1, XC2 etc, T = 20 C, RH = 50 %

It is assumed that the prestressing and the self-weight of the beam are applied three days after casting, while the self-weight of adjacent structures and service load are applied after 28 days. 50% of the service load is assumed to be long term load and the relaxation class may be set to 2 (i.e. low relaxation).

Tasks:


a) Check that the concrete stresses at prestressing in the lower edge of the beam are within the limits given by EC2. Assume rapid cement (s=0.2)

The intersection angle of a 6° simple horizontal curve is 65°25', and the PC is located at station (238+14). Determine: the length of the curve (L), the station of the PT, the deflection angle for setting out the first point after the PC, and the chord length for setting out the first point after the PC, the deflection angle for setting out the last point before the PT, and the chord length for setting out the last point before the PT. The length of the curve is:

-The station of the PT:

-The deflection angle for setting out the first point after the PC is:

-The chord length for setting out the first point after the PC is:

-The deflection angle for setting out the last point before the PT is:
