What will you propose for a concrete mix design to be used in constructing a bridge pier during a cold winter month. The bridge is designed to be constructed on a site where sulfate attack on the concrete is a problem. In this project, high cost is not allowed and the concrete’s cost must be priority without lowering quality.

I have a BIM model for a pavement structure with all the relevant data. The question is how do I use this to predict dynamic, thermal effects, creep, complex load patterns, and large displacements using a combination of Navisworks and COMSOL?. Try to explain the important steps....like where should I start and end?

A proposed highway has two tangents of bearings N 45°54 ,36,, E and N 1°22 ,30,, W. The highway design engineer, attempting to obtain the best fit for the simple circular curve to join these tangents, decides that the external ordinate is to be 43.00 ft. The PI is at station 65+ 43.21 Determine:
(a) The central angle of the curve
(b) The radius of the curve
(c) The length of the tangent of the curve
(d) The station of the PC
(e) The length of the curve
(f) The station of the PT
(g) The deflection angle and chord from the PC to the first full station on the curve

You have a 20 ton pile of aggregate you'll be using to design a concrete mixture and you need to determine the particle size gradation of the aggregate. What steps can you take to try to ensure that the sample of aggregate you're measuring particle size analysis of is representative of the entire pile?
