Question 1-A) in a horizontal terrain, the width is about 100 m., length 300 m. a rectangular "hospital building" is planned to be constructed urgently. Considering the floor and floor of the hospital building which will be constructed of reinforced concrete or steel construction and designed to be single storey, write down all the work required to be done in the ground survey of this area and its surroundings in order and in complete terms of geotechnical.

b) in this geotechnical evaluation, interpret your thoughts about whether 1 basement should be added or not to the "hospital building", which is intended to be built on a single storey, together with the reasons.

Engineering Ethics Response about the Volkswagen Emissions Scandal

Introduction: Compose an introduction that provides background information on the case, the ethical concepts that apply to your case, one engineering code of ethics, your argument about whether you believe the stakeholders in the case acted morally, and the evidence used to support your argument. This is where you present your argument or thesis statement.

Formulate the argument supporting your thesis: Take a position on this issue and present it as a thesis. Present at least three premises to support your argument plus the material that supports or explains them. Be sure to use material outside research.

Formulate a refuting argument or assessment of objections: Consider any objections or doubts that someone might make regarding your thesis. Convince the reader that the objections are unfounded and not credible.

Conclusion: Provide a summary of your argument, emphasize its importance, explain how engineers can avoid this situation from happening again in the future

To detail the effect of adverse weather on the railway infrastructure, and planning undertake to mitigate the risk to the following

A four-lane urban freeway is rolling on rolling terrain with 12-ft lanes, obstructions 2-ft from the right edge of the traveled pavement, and nine ramps within three miles upstream and three miles downstream of the midpoint of the analysis segment. The traffic stream consists primarily of commuters. A directional weekday peak-hour volume of 2400 vehicles is observed with 800 vehicles arriving in the most congested 15-min period. If the traffic stream has 10% large trucks and buses and recreational vehicles, determine the level of service.

Present a couple of arguments for selecting a president by electoral votes rather than by popular vote.

A vertical curve has an incoming grade of +4.4% and an exit grade of -2.2%. The length of the curve is 450.00 ft. The intersection of the grades is at 10+00 and the elevation at that point is 440.00. Compute the elevation of the +00 points on the curve. Then determine the location and elevation of the highest point on the curve. If there is an existing bridge at this location over the proposed road, and the elevation of its lowest point is 451.00 and the required clearance is a minimum of 14.0 ft, does this curve need to be re-designed, or will it fit the required parameter?

Discuss Jacobs’s choice of war metaphor to describe her struggle with Flint. How does she define violence?

1. Determine shear force resisted by a Reinforced concrete beam of size 230 x 450 mm simply supported over an effective span of 5.5 m which is reinforced with 4 - #16 mm bars in tension, supported with #8 mm dia 2-legged stirups @ 150 mm c/c upto 0.25 L from end Support and #8 mm dia 2-legged stirups @ 100 mm c/c at mid-span. consider moderate exposed conditions, use M20 grade of concrete and Fe 415 grade of HYSD steel.

(10 pts) According to counts taken 3 years ago that are available on the ADOT’s website, SR441 had an AADT value of 17,140 in downtown Tucson. While waiting for PAG or ADOT to retrieve the hourly traffic counts for SR441 from its archives, the city engineers decided to use the Florida default values to begin his analysis. A short time later, the requested data - the peak hourly volume was 1779. (a) What K-factor should the city engineer have used in his preliminary analysis while waiting for hte state’s data? What is the resulting peak volume? (b) What K-factor did thesegment of SR441 acctually have, according to the state’s data? (c) What is the impact of using the Florida data? Typical K-Factor for Florida Roads Typical K-Factors for Florida Roads Area Types K-Factor Urban 0.093 Transitioning/Urban 0.093 Rural Developed 0.095 Rural Undeveloped 0.100

Examine one of the Critical Infrastructure Sector-Specific Plans (Department of energy/defense/ homeland security/environmental protection agency), and offer a brief analysis of the strategy, strengths, weaknesses, and recommendations for enhancement of the plan.

1. A rectangular beam 230 mm wide is subjected to the following at a section
   • Ultimate bending moment of 135 kn.m
   • Ultimate shear force of 90 kn
   • Use M25 grade of concrete and Fe 415 steel

Design a suitable section and find the (flexural & shear) reinforcement required in the section.

1. A one-way slab has been designed for a simply supported span of 4.0 m with an overall depth of 170 mm and clear cover of 20 mm, using M 20 concrete and Fe 415 steel. The dead loads are taken as 5.0 kN/m² and the live loads as 2.0 kN/m². The longitudinal bars are designed as 10 mm φ @ 150 c/c. Verify the adequacy of the thickness provided,

1. Applying the limiting span/effective depth ratio;
2. Actual calculation of total deflections.

Considering a vertical sluice gate in a horizontal smooth rectangular channel, the upstream and downstream water depths are 5.1 and 0.45 m, respectively. The upstream flow velocity is 0.5 m/s and the channel width is 27 m. Calculate the downstream flow depth and the force acting on the sluice gate. Draw the control volume and show the forces acting on the sluice gate.
