Civil Engineering

Most Civil Enginners work between 50 and 60 hours per week

any engineer can even work 5 hours a day and still get payed either $5,000 to $10,000 dollars anyway

Grades of high tensile steel are based on their tensile strength and heat resistance. The best of these are used in axles and other high stress constructions that are required to operation safely.

Over lap of steel bar is provided 60 times of dia of steel bar. For example (.5") dia steel bar overlap length is (30"). (.5x60=30")

75mm is the maximum clear cover of concrete

For M7.5 the ratio is 1:4:8 i.e 1 part of cement, 1 part of fine aggregate (Sand) and 1 part of coarse aggregate.

Structural Efficiency= Maximum Mass Supported _______________________ (Divided By) Mass of Structure

it is a roadbase material consisting of crushed rock/slag usually premixed with controlled amount of water sufficient for adequate compaction.

a single groyne cost about £5,000 per metre

this is where find more of the cost of sea defences

Rebar locators are used to find exactly where the reinforcing steel is located under concrete in existing materials. They are most often used for renovation or remodeling projects.

Advantages:

1) The test's simplicity and, in the case of sands, the ease of specimen preparation.

2) The travel of the machine can be reversed to determine the residual shear strength values, which is shear strength parameters at large displacements.

3) Shear box represents a cheaper method in determining the drained shear strength parameters for coarse-grained soil. Preparing soil samples for other testing methods is relatively difficult and expensive.

disadvantages:

1) The main one: drainage conditions cannot be controlled.

2) As pore water pressure cannot be measured, only the total normal stress can be determined, although this is equal to the effective normal stress if the pore water pressure is zero.

3) Only an approximation to the state of pure shear is produced in the specimen and shear stress on the failure plane is not uniform, failure occurring progressively from the edges towards the center of the specimen.

4) The area under the shear and vertical loads does not remain constant throughout the test.

ASTM 1011 comes in many grades which determine the yield strength ie:1011 gr 42 would have a min yield of 42,000 psi

It would not be capitalised when used in a sentence.... "We will need to employ a civil engineer before we begin the work".

It is normal for Ordinary Portland cement to have a consistency ranging from 25-35%. To prepare cement paste of standard consistency, 25-35% of water must be added to cement. For a more detailed explanation, let us assume that a standard consistency is 30%. To make this quantity, add 30% water to 400g of cement.

TMT means Thermo mechanically treated steel its a new-generation-high-strength steel having superior properties such as weldability, strength, ductility and bendability meeting highest quality standards at international level..thanks Aarif

It is a wall constructed from individual small concrete blocks. It may be steel reinforced or not depending on application. They are quick to erect.

The ASTM equivalent for BS EN 10264-2 is AST A342. These designations are set for steel wires and wire products
