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?

A lathe is set to cut bars of steel into lengths of 6 centimeters. The lathe is considered to be in perfect adjustment if the average length of the bars it cuts is 6 centimeters. A sample of 121 bars is selected randomly and measured. It is determined that the average length of the bars in the sample is 6.08 centimeters with a standard deviation of 0.44 centimeters. The hypotheses to determine whether or not the lathe is in perfect...

In a certain process, steel bars are manufactured and subjected to a torsion test. Bars are considered acceptable if they support at least 15 lb-ft. Currently the process produces bars that support on average 15.23 lb-ft with a variance of 0.04 lb-ft^2. a. What proportion of the bars will not be able to meet the specifications? b. If we take a sample of 50 bars, how many are expected to fail the test? c. If we want no more than...

Yield strength of steel connecting bars. To protect against earthquake damage, steel beams are typically fitted and connected with plastic hinges. However, these plastic hinges are prone to deformations and are difficult to inspect and repair. An alternative method of connecting steel beams—one that uses high strength steel bars with clamps— was investigated in Engineering Structures ( July 2013). Mathematical models for predicting the performance of these steel connecting bars assume the bars have a mean yield strength of 300...

Two machines are supposed to be producing steel bars of approximately the same length.  A sample of 35 bars from one machine has an average length of 37.013 inches, with a standard deviation of 0.095 inches.  For 38 bars produced by the other machine, the corresponding figures are 36.074 inches and 0.032 inches.  Using a 0.05 level of significance and assuming equal population standard deviations, can we conclude that the machines are not different from each other?  Construct and interpret the 95 percent confidence...

A sample of n = 20 specimens of cold-processed steel bars was taken to measure their strength. The average resistance of the sample was 29.8 ksi, while the sample standard deviation was 4.0 ksi. A second sample consisting of 25 galvanized steel bars was also evaluated. The average resistance for this second sample was 34.7 ksi. and the sample standard deviation was 5.0 ksi. Assuming that the data comes from normal distributions and that the variances cannot be assumed to...
