Put in Order
Put in order the steps for cutting a coped joint. Write the corresponding numbers on the blanks.
A. Mark a W to indicate which side of the molding fits against the wall.
B. Carefully cut along the outlined profile with a fine-tooth coping saw blade, keeping the saw blade plumb.
C. Hold the molding so it is over the end of the sawhorse, and the side of the molding that will fit to the wall is flat on the top of the sawhorse.
D. Cut a molding piece to fit into the corner with a squared end and install.
E. Cut a miter on molding so it would fit into corner as an inside mitered joint. Rub a pencil along the edge.

A lined canal (n = 0.016) is designed to carry a flow rate of 33 m3/s. The canal is laid at a slope of 14 cm/km with a side slope of 2:1. Design the canal cross section (the water depth and bed width) according to each of the following scenario:
If Velocity is 1.0 m/s
If the Most efficient hydraulic section (i.e., when Rh=y/2)
If Width/depth =5
Comment on the practicality of the designs (Height of side slope, flow
velocity, variability of depth under reduced flows, land area for the canal).

You work for a general contractor experiencing increased rate of “high frequency, low impact” incidents. Specifically, the company has observed an increased rate of incidents associated with overexertion, slips trips, and falls at the same level, back pain, sprain and strains, and fatigue. You are asked to propose a solution to this problem. Your boss mentioned that they are open to implementing technologies or a combination of technology and effective safety practices. In about 300 to 500 words:

A grit chamber is designed to treat an average wastewater flow of 1 m3/sec at an overflow rate of 4752 m3/m2 –d to capture sand with the following particle size distribution:
% by wt. Diameter (mm)
30 1.0
30 0.5
30 0.2
10 0.1
The design overflow rate is such that 100% removal of the 0.5 mm diameter particles will be achieved. The operating temperature is 20°C and the specific gravity of the sand particles is 2.65. Assume that the stickiness coefficient (k) for sand is 0.04 and the Darcy-Weisbach friction factor (f) is 0.03.
a. Determine the surface area and vertical cross-sectional area of the grit chamber if only the 0.1 mm diameter particles will be scoured away
b. Calculate the removal efficiency assuming that only the 0.1 mm diameter particles will be
scoured away.
c. If the ratio of peak to average flow is 1.4, calculate the overall removal efficiency at the peak flow.
