1. Tom is a civil engineer and working in a large construction project. Tom was assigned by his manager to look for steel suppliers for the project. Tom placed a newspaper advertisement for potential suppliers to bid. A potential supplier approached Tom, indirectly requested Tom to buy steel from his company. Then he invited Tom to an expensive dinner and a boat tour. Tom was planning to accept the dinner invitation and boat tour. (a) Identify the ethical situation in this case (if any) (b) Explain what Tom should do (c) Mention the relevant Rule of Practice or Professional Obligation (if any)

2. Nathan and Bill are electrical engineers. They are colleagues and working for a reputed private firm. One day Nathan saw that his colleague Bill is accepting a new laptop as a gift from a material supplier. Next day, Nathan talked with Bill about this and told him that this is not appropriate. Bill did not care. After a couple of months later, Nathan got to know that the same supplier has arranged a vacation (i.e., air ticket, hotel etc.) in Hawaii for Bill. (d) Identify the ethical situation in this case (if any) (e) Explain what Nathan should do (f) Mention the relevant Rule of Practice or Professional Obligation (if any)

A simply supported beam is required to carry a moment of 50 kip-ft across a 25' span. Assuming that 4 and 8 ksi concrete are available, with a cost difference of 30 percent. Use 60 ksi steel. Beam width is fixed at 12 inches. You can Vary h.

a)design the beam using 2 different concretes - dont forget beta is different.
