What is the significance of the point of contraflexure paticulary if the beam is made from reinforced concrete?
Steel reinforcements are needed at the tension face,so point of contraflexures give us an idea where to bend up/down the bars. However, general practice is to extend the bars beyond the point of contraflexure because we can't predict it accurately (also to account for shear failure).
What are the benefits to a speed through in drama rehearsal?
Often in the later stages of rehearsal the actors and director can get bogged down in details. A speed through gets back to the big picture. It's also great for checking how well you/others know their lines and blocking, and it's usually quite fun and relieves any tension that may have built up.

What forces act on the Tower Bridge of London?
First of all, the force of compression impacts the bridge. Also, the force of tension inmpacts the bridge because the more cars there are or any weight the bridge stretches which is tension. tthe force of gravity weighs the bridge down and that is why the bridge has to withstand that. Wind can affect the tower bridge because if there is a huriccane the bridge has to be able to stand without any damage.
What energy is it when the diver jumps and the board bends down?
The diver at the top of a diving board has potential energy
What forces act on truss bridge?
Forces Acting on Truss BridgesThere are two major forces that act on bridges: compression and tension. The compression force bears down on an object to shorten or compress it, while tension is the directly opposing force that lengthens and stretches the object. A spring is a good example of a simple mechanism that works with both forces. Compression pushes the coils together, thus shortening the spring and tension pulls the coils further apart, lengthening the spring
What are 5 the different forces acting on structures?
1. Tension (pulling force) 2. Compression (pushing force) 3. Shear (cutting force) 4. Torsion (twisting force) 5. Bending (combination of (tension and compression) 6. Gravity ( it's always acting onstructures and things 24/7- it pulls things down to the ground/ Earth).
How do you determine when a diving board is at the end of its life?
I am a diver and have been brought up with an outdoor pool and now have an indoor pool. If there is any cracking in the fiberglass - you can see it on the diving board about 1/2 way down - I wouldn't use it anymore. If someone goes to dive and it breaks - depending on the weight and dive they are doing at the time - it may paralize them. Thanks, The Windsor-Browns
