Homework Statement Find the design ultimate sagging and hogging bending moments per metre width of slab. Load on slab- Imposed 32 kN/m - Permanent 39 kN/m Length: 5m Depth: 8m Thickness: 0.175m Not sure if relevant but it has 2 spans (i.e. two 5m lengths of slab) but...

They are calculated from 2g x A after subbing u for Q/A.

Homework Statement Flow rate in Venturi meter of Petrol (SG 0.85). Diam1 - 0.2m Diam2 - 0.15m Height Diff in manometer of Mercury (SG 13.6) 0.012m, so Δp= 13600 x 9.81 x 0.012 = 1601? Cd = 0.98 Homework Equations Bernoulli, p/ρg + U2/2g + Z U=Q/A The Attempt at a...

I have VA as 10 but can't work out the other two, the equation would suggest that HE-HA+5=0 which leaves two unknowns so I'm stuck with that.

sum of v=0 and sum of horiz=0 ?

Homework Statement [PLAIN]http://img847.imageshack.us/img847/1704/pinjointed.png Calculate the reactions at A and E and the forces in all members. The attempt at a solution At a loss regarding the reactions, tried equating vertical and horizontal. As for the members I guess its just a...

Homework Statement Determine the maximum uniformly distributed load that the beam can carry if the compressive and tensile stresses are not to exceed 150 N/mm2 and 200 N/mm2 respectively. There are no dimensions because the ones in the question are not consistent and so I don't know which...

Homework Statement A beam ABCD simply supported at A and C. AB= 2 m, BC= 6 m, AC=8m and CD= 2 m. It carries a uniformly distributed load of 30 kN/m between A and C and concentrated loads of 50 kN and 20 kN at B and D respectively. I want to find the maximum bending moment and its distance...
