A trapezoidal earthen channel that is straight and in good condition with a bottom width of 5.0 ft with side slopes on the left side of 2H to 1V and on the right side of 3H to 1V (two different side slopes) carries a discharge of 200 cfs for a 15-year design storm. The channel slope is 0.001 ft/ft. Determine the following: a) Normal Depth b) Critical Depth c) Critical Slope d) Froude number f) What is the flow type?

A Seven-sided closed field traverse has the following angles and distances in meters which were measured using a Total station:

AB = 51.7660;

BC = 76.9470;

CD = 37.0700;

DE = 29.2019;

EF = 28.7758;

FG = 36.7056;

GA = 41.9555;

The adjusted angles are as follows:

A = 128˚27’02”;

B = 101˚41’49”;

C = 102˚22’05”;

D = 143˚12’43”;

E = 161˚08’23”;

F = 131˚57’22”;

G = 131˚10’35”;

azimuth AB =251˚00'00''

question :

1. Compute the coordinates of the traverse stations using coordinates of station A as 1,000.000 N, 1,000.000 E.
2. Compute the area enclosed by the traverse using the co-ordinate method.
3. It was decided to divide the traverse into two parts AGFED and DCBA, find the area of each part and the length and direction of AD.

A square footing is supporting a single interior column with a dimension of 12 in × 12 in. The column carries axial loads as follows: 100 kip dead load and 80 kip live load. Use normal-weight concrete with ?? ′ = 3 ksi, ?? = 60 ksi, and ?? = 5 ksf. The distance from the bottom of the footing to final grade is 5 ft. The height of the footing is 36 in and the concrete cover is 3.5 in. Unit weight of the soil is 100 pcf and unit weight of concrete is 150 pcf.

a) Determine the dimension of the footing (in 1.0-ft increment) and check if the depth is adequate.

b) Design the flexural reinforcement of the footing.

c) Design the dowel reinforcement.
