Ethics Engineering

Generally which is easier to justify?

a.Strong paternalism

b. Weak paternalism

c. Both are equal

d. None of the above

Weak paternalism. The paternalist overrides the decision-making powers of the recipient when there is reason to believe the recipient
is not able to exercise her moral agency effectively.

Strong paternalism. The paternalist overrides the decision-making powers of the recipient, even when there is no reason to believe the recipient is not exercising his or her moral agency effectively.

Please answer the below questions. Thanks.

1. You are the Construction Manager for the Design and Build Contractor (and PSCS) for a project involving the construction of a multi-screen cinema and retail complex.
   1. You have had safety concerns in relation to the appointed scaffolding company, over a three weeks period. The issues raising concern include scaffolds being handed over in an unsafe state (missing toe boards, inadequate bracing and ties), scaffold workers operating at height not being tied-off, poor housekeeping and storage of materials on-site. Outline your strategy for dealing with this situation.   

For Environmental Engineering:

1. (i) List at least five water quality characteristics

2. (ii) Compare surface water and groundwater in terms of their typical water quality

   characteristics

3. (iii) Draw annotated diagrams for a typical surface water treatment plant and a typical

   groundwater treatment plant.

A 50-ft 2x4 drilled shaft group was installed in subsoil conditions, ( 15-ft sand overlain a 25-ft medium clay, which is underlain by a thick over-consolidated clay shale). The drilled shafts are tipped in clay shale at 50-ft depth to support a heavy highway bridge pier. The shaft diameter is 36 inches and placed at a center-center spacing of 6 feet. The strength properties of soils are 37^ofriction angle for the sand with unit weight of 125 pcf, undrained shear strength of medium clay is 1,800 psf with unit weight of 130 pcf and the undrained shear strength of the heavily over-consolidated clay shale 3,000 psf with the unit weight of 140 pcf. Compute the design bearing capacity of the drilled shaft group with the factor of safety 2.5.

Note: When you suspect some missing information, please make reasonable assumption(s) and proceed with your solution. Clearly show why the assumption(s) is needed.

A 1000- MW power plant burns coalwith a heating value of 25000Btu/kg, a sulfur content of 2.1%, and an ash content of 8%.

The plant has an overall conversion efficiency of 30%. Calculate:

a. The coal consumption rate in tons/hour.

b. The ash generation rate in tons/hour.

c. If a wet scrubber is added to remove 98% of the SO2, find the CaO consumption rate, also in tons/hour.

1W = 3.411Btu/hr
1hp = 746W = 2545 Btu/hr
Molecular weights: S = 32 gr, H = 1 gr, and O = 16gr, and Ca = 40gr

What are the advantages and disadvantages of using Rankine theories for lateral earth pressure calculation?

Subject: Foundation engineering.

A liquid flows tangentially past a flat plate of dimensions total length of 4 m (parallel to the flow direction) and width of 1.5 m. fluid velocity is 1 m/s (length wise). What is the skin friction drag (shear force) on both sides of the plate? liquid density = 1000 kg/m³, dynamic viscosity = 2 x 10-2 N*s/m².
