  1. Consider a pair of 3/8 in welds that are each 10 in long. Determine the strength if these two welds if:
    1. They are loaded parallel to their length
    2. They are loaded perpendicular to their length

Do not consider simplifying assumptions

  1. Consider an L5x3x1/2 supporting 45 kip dead load and 30 kip live load. It is being welded to an ASTM A36 PL5/8x8. Design and proportion the weld to make this a simple welded connection. The leg of the weld should be the average of the minimum and maximum size.  the 5 in leg of the angle is connected to the plate.

Flexural strength design check of sections of a typical internal portal frame:

The load cases which you are expected to analyse for portal frame in this exercise, and from which the design bending moments and the coincident axial forces required for this section should be derived, are discussed in the ‘Supplementary Notes’. The moment capacities Msx and Mbx and the axial capacities Ns, Ncx and Ncy may be determined using the tables in the AISC ‘Design Capacity Tables for Structural Steel’ publication.

Rafters:
Check the flexural strength of the rafters in a typical internal portal frame, in the general vicinity of the ridge. Again, check for the two cases of maximum sagging B.M. at or near the ridge and maximum hogging B.M. at or near the ridge, and allow for the coincident axial force. Again, note that:
 The purlins in the roof are at 1250mm centres, generally.
 Assume there is fly bracing at the ridge and then at 4 spaces from the ridge (obtain value depending on frame geometry).
For the rafters assume Grade 300 steel.

As indicated in the following figure, an incompressible silty sand fill 16.4 ft thick was
placed on top of a 49.2 ft thick layer of soft and compressible silty clay. Underlying the
clay is a layer of incompressible sandy gravel. The soil properties of the silty clay layer are
given in the following figure. The ultimate settlement, Sult = 5.64 ft, from the primary
consolidation of silty clay layer due to the weight of the silty sand fill is calculated.

A) the time rate of settlement by showing the Time [year] vs. Settlement [ft] curve.

What type of Adsorbents you can use for In Situ Treatment of Wastewater in Mine Tailing Ponds?

Give 5 different names of chemicals that used as Adsorbents and small explanation on each with examples.

(Note: Firstly, the adsorbents sink in water and potentially be used to remove toxic pollutants at the bottom of tailing dams and then float after a certain time, so that the adsorbents can remove from water)
