What are the pros and cons of a Cantilever bridge?
The pros are that the cantilever bridge is the only bridge that only has one supporting object.The other side is free.
What is a Khurra in waterproofing?
This is not a common term. Check the source to see if you mean something else.
Is a bridge made out of pasta going to be stronger than a bridge made out of toothpicks?
It depends on your definition of "strongness". Pasta can be more rigid, but toothpicks have more flexibility, depending on conditions. Like everything else, it depends on the rules.
Triangels are the strongest shape so make a triple triangle design i aced it that way
+++
The plank bridge is the weakest as it is just a simple beam with no central support or stiffening for the span. The other two can be designed to comparable strength for a given span, but work in somewhat different ways: the truss bridge acts as a beam stiffened by the truss frames, the arch transmits the forces from the centre to its abutments.
How much does a cantilever bridge cost?
cantilever bridges cost somewhere between a couple million to about $1 billion.
What is difference between radial flow turbine and axial flow turbine?
in a radial flow turbine the steam enters the turbine in the direction of its radius and leaves it in the direction of the axis of the shaft. in a axial flow turbine the steam enters the turbine in the direction of the axis of the shaft and leaves the turbine in the same direction.
Facts about the Tacoma bridges?
How deep do you have to dig to lay the foundation for a skyscraper?
that depends on what area you are in but no matter what area you are in you always have to dig down to the bed rock no matter how deep that is if you dont it will collapse
What are the minimum number of plumbing fixture for a single family residence?
Hot water tank, hose bibb, kitchen sink, toilet, bathroom vanity sink and a tub/shower.
What are the uses of white cement?
white cement is used in the production of POP(plaster of paris) for buildings in place of ceiling boards

Cement Fondue has a different composition to "normal" cement - it has a high aluminum content; cures to full strength in 24 hours without any shrinkage or cracking, and is heat-proof.
Cement fondue is a cement that sets in about six hours but begins to become solid in a much shorter time depending upon the mixture and air drying time. A mixture of two parts sand to one part fondue and one part water is a recommended mix.
Sculptures made from this product are durable and lightweight if built over an armature.
Special cements are cements that serve some specific function such as altering the setting or hardening behavior of a concrete, producing different colors for architectural effects, imparting superior workability, imparting water retention and plasticity to mortars, resisting the penetration of water in walls or containment vessels or simply reducing the cost of the cementing agent. This article gives descriptions of the basic characteristics of certain special cements and their applications.
What is the ratio for fly ash as the cement replacement in concrete?
Replacement of cement with flyash in concrete is 20-35 % by weight for normal structures. however for special structures like dams the replacement levelscan be increased to up to 70 %. (where flyash must be ISI standards compatible or any such standards) This replacement also reduces water requirement by 2.5 % for every 10 % replacement of flyash used.
What are the five methods for recording data?
The five methods of recording data are: direct personal observation, local agents, mailed questionnaires, indirect oral interviews, and schedule via enumerators.
What is the African word for bridge?

Why do engineers build bridges and railway lines with gaps in between?
Because differences in temperature cause the materials to either shrink or expand. With a lot of shrinking and expanding occurring, these materials would crack or break down if there wasn't any allowance for the movement. Also these gaps are used to compensate for the weight of the load crossing vehicles which presses the bridge to its maximum shear capacity. The gaps serve as this allowance for movement in terms of both temperature and weight.
Many railway tracks no longer make use of these gaps as they are pre-tensioned and then placed into position in this "stretched" form. Thus, as temperature rises, the tension in the tracks decreases, but the material does not buckle, since it is already stretched!!!
Does a bridge separate collision domains?
No a bridge will transmit all network protocols to all ports, without restriction; thus the term "Bridge." A Router in true bridge mode will do the same, unless you implement some form of route management (managed bridge / router).
