A typical drywall finisher works 45 hours per week for 16 weeks of the year and 40 hour per week for 32 weeks of the year, and gets 4 weeks off in the form of vacation, holidays, and sick leave (for which the drywall finishers are paid for 40 hours per week). The typical drywall finisher is paid $25.78 per hour. The employer must comply with the overtime requirements in the Fair Labor Standards Act. Determine the wages paid to a typical drywall finisher and the number of billable hours during a one-year period. Assume that all hours are billable except holidays, vacation, and sick leave

A simply supported beam with a span of 26 FT is used to carry a service dead load (including self-weight) of 1.65 KLF and a service live load of 3.3 KLF and is reinforced with 4-#9 bars. The beam has a width b of 14 IN, an effective depth of 24.5 IN., and a height of 27 IN. The material strengths are f’c = 4000 PSI and fy = 60 KSI. The immediate deflection due to live load is limited to L/360. Does the beam meet these limits?
