Project on geometry in real life?
I work with asphalt, paving roads. We have to figure out how mush asphalt it will take to pave or resurface a road. We do this based on the length, width and how thick we are going to put it down. With a known weight per square yard we can figure out how many tons of asphalt we will need for a given road. We also use this in reverse to check how much asphalt we are putting down per square yard as we go along.
How many asphalt shingles to do 160 sq-ft?
To determine how many asphalt shingles are needed for 160 square feet, you first need to know that a standard bundle of asphalt shingles typically covers about 33.3 square feet. Therefore, to cover 160 square feet, you would divide 160 by 33.3, which equals approximately 4.8 bundles. Since you can't purchase a fraction of a bundle, you would need to buy 5 bundles of asphalt shingles to ensure complete coverage.
How many tons of asphalt in 1 square meter 50 mm thick?
Oh, dude, you're hitting me with the heavy stuff! So, like, to answer your question, 1 square meter of asphalt that's 50 mm thick would weigh around 0.05 tons. But hey, who's really counting, right? Just remember, when it comes to asphalt, it's all about quality, not quantity... or weight, for that matter.
How many ton of asphalt would you need for 8388 sq ft if its 2 inches thick?
To calculate the amount of asphalt needed for an area of 8,388 square feet at a thickness of 2 inches, first convert the thickness to feet: 2 inches is approximately 0.167 feet. Multiply the area by the thickness: 8,388 sq ft × 0.167 ft = 1,399.596 cubic feet. Since asphalt weighs about 145 pounds per cubic foot, the total weight is approximately 202,000 pounds, or about 101 tons.
How much does one square of roofing shingles weigh?
It weighs 3 Ibs per one square footage of asphalt shingle
What are the key differences between isotropic and orthotropic materials in terms of their mechanical properties?
Isotropic materials have the same mechanical properties in all directions, while orthotropic materials have different properties in different directions. This means that isotropic materials have uniform strength and stiffness, whereas orthotropic materials have varying strength and stiffness depending on the direction of force applied.
What is an orthotropic material?
A material is orthotropic if its mechanical or thermal properties are unique and independent in three mutually perpendicular directions. Examples of orthotropic materials are wood, many crystals, and rolled metals.
Example of isotropic material?
Aluminium and steel are e.g. of isotropic materials.
Why microemulsion known as isotropic mixture?
The meaning of isotropic is with identical properties independent on the direction.
What has the author M S Troitsky written?
M S. Troitsky has written: 'Orthotropic bridges'
What is the definition of orthotropic material?
Orthotropic materials have different mechanical properties along each of its axes because its axes are mutually orthogonal twofold axes. Therefore, they don't have one set of properties, because their properties change depending on the direction of the axis used.
What is orthotropic behavior?
Orthotropic behavior refers to the mechanical properties of materials that exhibit different characteristics in three mutually perpendicular directions. This anisotropic behavior is commonly found in composite materials, such as wood and certain plastics, where properties like stiffness and strength vary based on the direction of the applied load. Understanding orthotropic behavior is essential in engineering and materials science for accurately predicting how these materials will perform under various stress conditions.
What is the difference between cold mix asphalt and cutback asphalt?
Cold Mix Asphalt is a mixture of aggregate and asphalt. Cutback asphalt is a liquid asphalt. Cold Mix Asphalt is a mixture of Aggregate and Asphalt. The Asphalt is usually am emulsion asphalt or a cutback asphalt. An emulsion asphalt is asphalt cement blended with water. Cutback asphalt is asphalt cement blended with a fuel oil, kerosene, or a naptha. The water, fuel oil, kerosene or Naphta evaporates and leaves the asphalt.
What has the author Krzysztof Marynowski written?
Krzysztof Marynowski has written: 'Dynamics of the axially moving orthotropic web'
Can a non homogeneous material be isotropic?
NO
What is the properties of isotropic material?
Isotropic materials have the same mechanical properties in all directions. This means they exhibit identical responses to stress or strain, regardless of the direction in which they are applied. Isotropic materials are characterized by having uniformity and symmetry in their properties.
What is difference between anisotropic material and orthotropic material?
an orthotropic material is one that has the different materials properties or strength in different octhogonal directions, but properties of anisotropic material being directionally dependent. thus Orthotropic materials are anisotropic.
