How i am calculating the Bearing resistance of bolt?
Using the Canadian Handbook of Steel Construction (9th edition, 2006) Br = 3 * phi(br) * plate thickness * diameter of bolt * number of bolts * Fu where phi(br) = 0.67 Fu = 450 MPa for 300W or 350W grade steel t and d are in millimetres Br = bearing resistance for given number of bolts Also: see Table 3-2 "Bearing Type Connections" in the CISC Handbook of Steel Construction Hope this helps...
You will find the answer here, explained very clearly.

What is the tilting level in the surveying?
Most surveying instruments are mounted on a tripod with a flat surface on top. A tilting level tripod has a curved surface on top. The tripod does not need the precise set up procedure because the tilting level can be shifted up or down along the top of the curved tripod head until the levels own level vial is horizontal and then measurements can be made.
What is section of classification of the steel?

What are the ingredients of copper?
Copper is an element. Elements don't haveingredients--they are ingredients.
You may be thinking of bronze, which is an alloy of copper and tin (another element).
What is the function of ozone in water treatment?
FUNCTION OF OZONE IN WATER TREATMENT
- Ozone is being used as a disinfecting agent in drinking water treatment.
- It has been used extensively for disinfection and for taste and odour control also.
- Ozone treatment is generally effctive in dealing with pathogenic bacteria and cysts.
- Ozone treatment has its own typical advantages and disadvantages too.
What is the required depth for the foundations of a bungalow?
This will depend on the area. Each state will have specific requirements that must be met before constructing the bungalow.
All epoxys are not created equal. There are many different types of polymer resins in manufacturing different epoxys such as;
Polymides, Polyimines, Polyurethanes, Polyesters, Aminoplasts, Acrylics, Alkyds, Vinyl Esters, Vinyl acetates, Melamine are some common types of epoxy.
During the inception phase, you typically focus on understanding how to improve the way you manage requirements. It also focuses on the way to help manage the project.
Provide a coating to the surface of the metal either a permenant or temporary. For a permenant coating, apply a paint or lacquer formula For a temporary coating, apply either oil, wax or pollish, which you will have to replenish often
kip= kilopound, therefore you simply convert 1000 kilograms to pounds to get the answer. The conversion comes out to be approximately 2205 pounds.

Is civil engineering the same as a degree in architecture?
NO! In short, architects make pretty drawings of buildings, whereas civil engineers do the dirty work of making the building work (ie. determining which materials are used; creating blueprints of where water, sewage, electrical, etc. lines run through a building; calculating stress/strain in joints throughout the building to ensure it will hold; take soil samples to determine how the ground must be treated before construction begins; and MUCH more!). This is only one aspect of civil engineering, other areas include: designing highways, water treatment, construction of dams, levees, etc., and the construction of bridges. So sum it all up: Architecture is all art. Civil Engineering is a cross between physics, geology, mathematics, and just a little bit of art.
This is an addition to the previous...as an Architectural Engineer (and licensed PE), you need to give more credit to Architects. They are typically well versed in making a building "work". They'll usually know approximate dimensions for beam and column sizing, and other engineering minimal requirements...but no, they are not Engineers. Engineers are typically more math/science oriented.
