What is difference between partial factor of safety and factor of safety?

A safety factor is an aspect of design that increases strength or protection beyond that suggested as needed by calculation or other basic assessment. For example, engineering calculations might suggest a bridge needs a certain amount of strength in a support beam. That number would be increased by, perhaps, 20% as a "safety factor" in case it were to be stressed beyond its design or in case some basis for the calculation was in error.A partial safety factor is one of several safety factors applied to the same instance.


Why would bridge engineers choose a arch bridge design over other bridge designs?

Becuase bending moment in the middle of the bridge bending moment is less than ordinary or straight bridge and more strength


What kind of supply is given to schering's bridge?

schering's bridge is used to measure capacitance and dissipation factor of a capacitor. AC voltage is given to the terminals of bridge and bridge is balanced by varying resistance and capacitance in the opposite arm.


Effect of q factor on maxwell inductance bridge?

the bridge is preferably balanced by capacitor parallel attached resistance value. so, q factor of the inductor is given by w L / C at balance condition. q-value is low prefer


What is the design factor of strength 10000 pounds and working load of 2000?

The design factor, also known as the factor of safety, is calculated by dividing the ultimate strength by the working load. In this case, the design factor is 10,000 pounds (design strength) divided by 2,000 pounds (working load), which equals 5. This means the system is designed to withstand five times the working load, providing a safety margin in case of unexpected loads or conditions.
