TRANSPORTATION ENGINEERING: A multilane highway has four lanes (2 in each direction) and a measured FFS of 55 mph. One upgrade is 5% and 0.62 miles long. Currently trucks are not permitted on the road, but there are 2% busses in the directional volume of 1900 vehicles (PHF is 0.80). Local authorities are considering allowing trucks into the traffic stream. If this is done, they estimate 150 trucks will use this highway during peak hour. Before trucks, the driver population factor is 1, and it goes to 0.97 after trucks. What will be the level of service before and after trucks are allowed on the road.

1. How is a brick veneer wall built? What are the correct steps in this process?

2. Why do we need to use an SW brick for an exterior wall in New England? And what type of mortar should we use?

how would the car react to a temporary signage (construction) traffic cops,or ambulance with sirens trying to pass them?

what type of new dangers are introduced with self driving cars ? i.e interface hackers ?

How to create automated template for Stiffness Matrix Method in MATHCAD?

Specifically for beams.

After the first three cases were culture confirmed, the management at the factory requested that workers report any symptoms of illness that they might have experienced during the month of July. Of the 3155 employees, 74 reported gastrointestinal symptoms (i.e., diarrhea) in July and stool samples were obtained from these workers. Of the 74 workers who reported that they were ill, 56 were culture-confirmed. Based on retrospective interviews, the onset dates for diarrhea for these 56 workers were as follows:

1. What was the incidence rate for this eight day period?  
2. List two plausible reasons why only 56 of the 74 workers who said that they had experienced gastrointestinal problems could be culture-confirmed as being infected by e coli O157:H7.

discuss the information, you will take in to consideration in the prcoess of locational design?

what will be the impact on the economy of Australia as a result of climate change affecting drinking water?

Consider the headway data shown in the following table. Data was taken from the center lane a three-lane intersection approach for a total of ten signal cycles. For the purposes of the analysis, the data may be considered to have been collected under ideal conditions.

1. Calculate the average headway per vehicle ID, and plot the average headways with respect to vehicle positions in the queue for the data shown below. Sketch an approximate best-fit curve through the data.
2. Use the approximate best-fit curve constructed in Part (1), determine the saturation headway and the start-up lost time for the data.
3. What is the saturation flow rate for this data?

A four-lane freeway (two lanes in each direction) operates at capacity during the peak hour. It has 11-ft lanes, 4-ft shoulders, and there are 3 ramps within 3 miles upstream of the segment midpoint and 4 ramps within 3 miles downstream of the segment midpoint. The freeway is on rolling terrain and has 8% heavy vehicles with a peak-hour factor of 0.85. It is know that 12% of the AADT occurs in the peak hour and that the directional factor is 0.6. What is the freeway’s AADT?

6. what is the benefit of coating steel bars with epoxy, is there any disadvantage to that?

7. why the code specify the critical section for shear in beams to be at d from the support?

8. why the code put a limit for maximum shear reinforcements in beams?

9. In beams, the concrete in tension is ignored in calculating the moment capacity, while in calculating the concrete shear capacity, the concrete in tension is included in the calculation of shear capacity, why?

10. In what mechanism the concrete shear capacity is developed?

To test the project’s viability we have evaluated it against different factors. These factors are:

Cost, Time, Manpower and Quality.

Cost:

A project is not considered viable if its is not delivered within its budget. The cost viability of a project can change over the course of the project. However, due to the short timeframe and current trends in the market, we can assure you that project is viable from cost perspective.

Do we need to provide helicopter view of COST estimate?

Best to generate three alternatives

Top Tier: Provides all required functionality that has been requested for with top end fixtures (High-end alternatives).

Mid-Tier: Provides all required functionality that has requested, with mid-level quality fixtures:

Bottom-Tier: Provide most of the required functionality with base/entry level fixtures.

Sources of hardware;

Hardware stores: Existing agreements with hardware suppliers, and other friendly builders.

Time:

This project can be delivered on time by the requested date. A project schedule has been prepared for the project. We are confident that handover is expectedby 15-04-2019.

Project schedule provided, provides the complete timeline of the key deliverables and the final product.

To mitigate any time related issues, we have a backup team and another standby subcontractor to deliver the project on-time.

Manpower:

Manpower is important aspect in project’s viability, losing key member of a staff member can cause a project to lose its viability. In addition to our permanent staff, we have various agreements with other friendly firms, contractors, sub-contractors, and recruitment agencies.

Quality of the build is checked and tested at various stages of the projects. At the main milestones as shown on the schedule our quality assurance team shall inspect and works.

Our company is ISO certified and shall confirm with ISO 15928 standards for; Houses – Description of performance—part 5 Operating energy.

To keep the quality of the build (Whichever tier is chosen) shall be maintained by regular quality inspections.

Inspections shall be done to check the procured items, check against the specification, industry standards and regulations, it shall also whether it meets your chosen requirements (Chosen tier option).

Certificates are to be provided by the Electrician, plumbers, cablers (Data and Telephony) along with 10 years warranty and
