Civil Engineering
Civil Engineering is a profession of designing and executing structural works that serve the general public, like houses, buildings, roads, etc. A Civil Engineer is an engineer trained in the design and construction of public works, such as bridges or dams, and other large facilities.

How curtailment is done rcc beams?
in case of beam bottom most fiber taking bending stress and stress gradually decrease toward supporting members longitudinally. so that curtailment can be done by analysis cross section of the beam and can be determined steel required particular section.
What is the meaning of Fe in Fe415 grade reinforcement steel?
The abbreviation Fe stands for Ferrous material ie iron from which the reinforcement steel bars are manufactured.
The reinforcement steel bars used in RCC (Reinforced Cement Concrete) are designated in grades of Fe250, Fe415 or Fe500 depending on their Yield Strength.(The numbers 215, 415 and 500 tell about this Yield Strength in N/mm2 the bars are designed and manufactured to have.)
Fe415 indicates that the Yield Strength (tensile strength when it is subjected to elongation) of steel is 415 N/mm2.
What is a break line in surveying?
A breakline is associated with survey points. The breakline represents a distinct interruption in the slope of a surface. Common examples of breaklines are ridge, road, cliff, or stream. It is to help define a triangulated irregular network (TIN) by clarifying smoothness and continuity.
What is propped simply supported beam?
A cantilever beam is a beam which is fixed at one end ( no translation or rotation).
A propped cantilever beam is a beam which is fixed at one end ( no translation or rotation) and simply supported ( no translation) at the other end.
A cantilever beam is a beam which is fixed at one end ( no translation or rotation).
A simply supported beam is a beam which is simply supported at both ends.
A propped simply supported beam is a beam which is simply supported at both ends and simply supported at some other point such as at the center, to reduce deflection under load.
Propped beams are statically indeterminate.
What is the tangent modulus of mild steel?
The tangent modulus of steel varies depending on if the steel has yielded.
If the steel has not yielded, and is still elastic (stresses less than approx. 275 MPa (39885 Psi) the tangent modulus will be equal to the Young's Modulus, 205 GPa (39885367)
If the steel has yielded, the tangent modulus will be related by the Ramsberg-Osgood Equation, but a reasonable value to use would be approx. 1.5 GPa (2175565 Psi)
What is accuracy and precision in civil engineering?
when we do a project for example we creating a road, we must notice which is the ground level measurement, consistency of the road is slightly accurate.. because when its about to do some adjustment on the road we must re-fixed and recreated a new calculation of measurement basically the old measurement as the references (baseline) so that we could easily precise in our work.
What is definition of semiconductor?
those material having conductivity between insulator and good conductor are known as semiconductors for example germanium and silicon.

What is the degree of saturation at plastic limit?
more than 100%(over saturated but saturation is 100%) .....because shrinkage limit is smallest water content at which soil is saturated......means at shrinkage limit itself it posses 100% saturation ........
Where can I download ICE manual series books like Highway design and management?
I searched every where & found only The ICE manual Of Bridge Engineering pdf book.If any body knows Tell me about other books.
What is absolute maximum bending moment?
bending moment varies with the distance & the load carried by the beam. And also there is a hogging behavior and a sagging behavior occurs in the beam. According to the sign convention hogging and sagging bears opposite signs.(- & +). So if we are asked to find the maximum bending moment whether it is sagging or hogging we should consider the maximum value without considering the sign. That value is called maximum absolute bending moment.
Deflection of beam means amount by which beam gets deflected from its original position.
Where is wevac university located?
Wevac is an online university this means that most probably they do not have an actual campus because they don't provide campus based study programs. The university may have administrative office somewhere but it is not the campus. The whole purpose of online education is to provide an alternate option.
What branch of civil engineering is hydraulics?
water resources (designing drainage systems), waste water and treatment of it, coastal engineering ( design of structures near water such as ports) etc.
