Dumpy level provides a horizontal line (parallel to earth's curvature); you can read the scale by holding it normal to the ground level. Take separate readings for separate points then compare them

Post-reinforcement pause is a pause in responding that typically occurs after the delivery of the reinforcer on fixed-ratio and fixed-interval schedules of reinforcement.

Slump

Brittle materials such as ceramics do not have a yield point. For these materials the rupture strength and the ultimate strength are the same, therefore the stress-strain curve would consist of only the elastic region, followed by a failure of the material.

Every metal thing you use in your daily life is made from an alloy. Alloying metals can make a metal that exactly meets your needs - if you need a metal that melts at 100 degrees C, or one that's harder than granite, alloying will let you fill your requirements.

Making an alloy is a three-step procedure. Metallurgists and engineers will determine the need for a new metal, its characteristics, and the mixture of base metals that will meet the requirements of the new metal in the most economical manner. Next, they will make a small batch of the alloy in a laboratory and test it to see if it works the way they want. If it does, they'll go to a metal plant and make a large batch to see if it works like it did from the small batch.

It refers to the go / no go boundry, a 5 mm sieve wont let anything larger than 5 mm through, but anything less will pass through.

Reinforced Cement Concrete is called RCC.

Turning moment (Nm) = Force (N) x Perpendicular Distance from the pivot to the line of action of the force (m)

Young's modulus describes the relationship between stress (sigma) and strain (epsilon) in a material that obeys Hooke's law.

Concrete is such a material and knowing this property allows one to plan and design the use of concrete as a building material safely.

It is best to think of this in terms of a shooting target, when the bullet hits close to the bulls-eye, this is accuracy. In other words it is how close your result is to what it is supposed to be. Precision is about the grouping, if you fir 5 shots and one hits the bulls-eye, then on hits far above it, one below it, one to the left, and one to the right, they are not close and therefore your precision is off. However even if you hit as far from the bulls-eye as possible, but all five bullets hit in the same area, then this is precision. In other words if all of your results of your experiment always turn out about the same, it is precise.

Dear Friend, calculate the volume of the silo ie., nothing but the capacity you required.

how does the fineness modulus of aggregate affect the strength of concrete

Limit of retention is the maximum amount that can be retained in the construction contract. Suppose the retention % is 5% and limit of retention is 10%. On a contract value of Rs100.00. The first claim amounts to Rs20.00. Retention is Rs1.00 and net payment is Rs 19.00

An electrical circuit used to measure an unknown electrical resistance is called a Wheatstone bridge. It is called a bridge because it balances two legs of a bridge circuit.

Anything on Earth experiences the same gravitational force. Earth's gravity is 9.8m/s2 on all objects (slightly greater near the equator and slightly less further from it). This means that every second an object is falling, it's speed will increase by 9.8 meters per second. This is not taking air friction and other such things into account.

Compressive strength measures the largest compression force the material can withstand before it loses its shape or fails.

For M20 grade concrete mix proportion=1:1.5:3

And dry volume factor is 54 percent.

Hence, we required to find quantities for 1.54 cum concrete.

cement required=(1/5.5) x (1.54)=0.27 cum,

Sand required=(1.5/5.5) x (1.54)=4.2 cum,

Stone chips required=(3/5.5) x (1.54)=0.84 cum.

to help support the building. also to build up the building bigger or taller depending on the size of the beam.

The Aswan high dam is the dam located on the Nile River. It was built to help keep it contained. When it was being built , the dam backed up and created Lake Nasser, located near Cairo, a city in Egypt.

That question can't be answered unless we know what sort of scaffolding and how much of it you want, what city you are in...
