Civil Engineering

Geotextiles are used to separate layers of soil/gravel/sand etc. so that different layers won't mix and thereby lose their specific abilities (e.g drainage). It's typically used when constructing roads and infrastructure where primarily the drainage capacity of the soil is important, but also for buildings and other constructions.

In comparison, geogrids are typically used to fixate a layer in a soil construction, for instance gravel, so that it will stay in place and be able to withstand higher loads. It is useful to increase the capacity and prolong the service life of especially dirt roads.

For images and an overview of some common brands of geotextiles (and additional information if you know Swedish), see:

"The mat (or raft) foundation can be considered a large footing extending over a great area, frequently an entire building. All vertical structural loadings from columns and alls are supported on the common foundation. Typically, the mat is utilized for conditions where a preliminary design indicates that individual columns or footings would be undesirably close together or try to overlap. The mat is frequently utilitzed as a method to reduce or distribute building loads in order to reduce differential settlement between adjacent areas. To function properly, the mat structure will be more rigid and thicker than individual spread footing." A mat foundation is typically used when there are poor and weak soil conditions. (McCarthy, 2007)

Only if it needs to be air or water tight. Generally a window or door opening is sealed by the wood casing and trim and caulking is not needed.

PV=nRT P is the pressure that you are looking for V is the volume of the vessel (74.48ft3) R is a constant. look it up. (10.7316 ft3 psi/R lbmol) 4 cubic meter of air is the amount of moles that you have (n) (.026853 cubic meters is 0.0026412Lbmole) this is 0.393430901 lbmol I will assume the air at 120 degrees F that is = 579.7 degrees Rankin P= (.39)(10.7316)(579.7)/74.48ft3 P= 32.57 psi

A beam is a crossbar of a balance, a large piece of timber or iron, a horizontal timber of a building, or a ray or collection of rays of parallel light.

Ancient Romans met up with people from other towns and sent scouts to find nearby villages. This is how they knew where to build roads that would lead to these locations.

3.2.2 Dimensions. The minimum effective length and the throat end opening diameter of the fabric windsock are as follows: a. Size 1 ‑ Eight feet (2.5 m) in length and 18 inches (0.45 m) in throat diameter. b. Size 2 ‑ Twelve feet (3.75 m) in length and 36 inches (0.9 m) in throat diameter. The taper or the fabric windsock from the throat to the trailing end must be designed to cause the windsock to fully extend when exposed to a wind of 15 knots (28 km/hr or 17 mph).

Coefficient of consolidation (Cv) is a measure of time it takes for a soil to consolidate during the lab test.

Bush hammered concrete looks like a naturally weathered rock. Bush Hammers are used to impact on rocks to create a rough, pockmarked texture.

Green concrete could mean two different things. It could mean that the concrete isn't cured yet, or it could mean that it is supposed to be environmentally friendly.

It is the distance of a vertical and longitudinal planfrom the center line of the vessel

There are three different configurations of arches including the fixed arch, the two-hinged arch, and the three-hinged arch. These configurations determine how stable the arch will be. Types of arches include the triangular arch, semi-circular arch, segmental arch, rampart round arch, lancet arch, equilateral pointed arch, and jack arch. Additional types of arches include the trefoil arch, horseshoe arch, three-centered arch, elliptical arch, inflexed arch, ogee arch, reverse ogee arch, Tudor arch, and parabolic arch.

photogrammetry is a remote seasoning technology which determine the geometrical property of object are determine from a photographic image.i.e X,Y,Z coordinate.

The initials PA listed after an engineers name has no meaning. However, the initial PE listed after an engineers name stands for Professional Engineer.

In the dry blending process, the ingredients are received from suppliers in a dehydrated powdered

form and are mixed together to achieve a uniform blend of the macro and micro nutrients necessary

for a complete infant formula product.

TR 43 is the Indian code used for post-tensioning

Micro-climatic factors involve things in the environment that have an effect on climate. Turbulence, humidity, tundra's, and frost are all micro-climatic factors.

Partly yes, although Abrasion Index is specific to the mineral's effect on crushing and grinding equipment; more specifically to the consumable metal parts involved (cones, liners, balls/rods, etc.). It is a factor used to determine the effective rate of wear of the aforementioned consumables.

Site suitability in civil engineering is a determination made before a project is begun. Soil samples, compaction, other measurements are taken.

Fly ash is one of the residues generated in combustion, and comprises the fine particles that rise with the flue gases. In an industrial context, fly ash usually refers to ash produced during combustion of coal.
