Which soil has a specific gravity of 2.61?

Why is consistency important?

Because we need it to eat food

Soil consistency is an important factor both in water holding capacity as well as water movement through the soil for use by plants. At a fundamental level, soil of such makeup and consistency as to have high field capacity (to retain water in large supply but not oversupply) can support greatest plant (including crop) growth and "fruit" production for use as feed by both wild and domestic animal species. Conversely (for example), soils of poor consistency such as, for instance, desert sand seas or pavements, have as a result only sparse or nonexistent vegetation, and hence support very low animal populations, if any.

What are advantage of compacting concrete using a steel rod?

I think you are talking about embedding steel rods (rebars) in concrete, right? This would make the concrete much stronger. It is called reinforced concrete, and you can make all sorts of structures with it, something that you can't do with ordinary concrete. Though, I am not even sure anyone is using non-reinforced concrete nowadays.

How is a cantilever different from a fully supported beam?

A supported beam has both ends of the beam resting on a support. A cantilever has a single support often hinged close to or at one end with the other end supported in another manner.

What is factor of safety?

Factor of safety is a figure used in structural and geotechnical design applications that provides a design margin over the theoretical design capacity.

What is moment of inertia and its importance in civil engineering?

The moment of inertia (writen I, with an indice indicating the axis in which it is expressed) mesures the opposition any kind of body will have against a certain momentum (along that same axis) trying to rotate that body

What is bitumen?

Bitumen is a form of mineral pitch, a black, tarry substance which occurs as an abundant natural product in many places, including the shores of the Dead Sea and the Caspian Sea. The material is used in cements, in the construction of pavements.

How do you calculate steel quantity in RCC 100 cft?
