Compressive strength measures the largest compression force the material can withstand before it loses its shape or fails.
How much sand and aggregate required 1 cubic meter of m10 grade cement?
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.
What is advantage of beam in building?
to help support the building. also to build up the building bigger or taller depending on the size of the beam.
What was the purpose for the Aswan Dam?
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...
What happend at the battle of stamford bridge?

What type of an engineer do you have to be to build roller coasters?
A clever and creative mechanical engineer is the person behind a great coaster.
What size of I-beam will span 22 feet with a mid-point load of 850 lbs.?
Depends on the material the I-beam is made out of. Steel? Is it a wood I-joist? And I-beams come in different "flavors" as regards the geometry and cross section of the web. Variables in a question make for a variable answer.
What are the difference between two way slab and one way slab?
The basic difference between one way and two way slab is load distribution which is depends on support condition and span lengths.Mainly shorter span is carring larger load than longer span.This load distribution can be calculated considering the deflection at any point is same Shorter and Longer Span.
What are the two types of suspension bridges found in the world?
What is the formula for finding the volume of steel in a steel pipe?
Subtract the area of the I.D. of the pipe from the O.D. and multiply the result by the length. (I.D. and O.D. are inside and outside diameter respectively)
How do you calculate brake horsepower of pump?
BHP = Flow(GPM) X TDH(FT) x SG /3960xEFFICIENCY(%)Example: BHP = (100 GPM) x (95 Ft) x (1.0) / 3960 x .6BHP = 4.0

Ultimate tensile strength
Density
Cost
Stiffness
Heat expansion co-efficient

Why compressive strength is specific requirement for the bricks?
The compressive strength of bricks varies depending on the type of bricks and what they are used for. The compressive strength of conventional red bricks is 40 to 65 Kg/cm2. In comparison, flyash bricks have a compressive strength of 70 to 120 Kg/cm2.
What is the density of grade 76-10 bitumen?
The density of Grade 76-10 Bituminous Binder is 1.1 gm/cc at 25 degree centigrade with low linear polyethylene modifier (LLPE) polymer.
Why did they build Howrah bridge?
Howrah bridge was built to link the two cities of Howrah and Kolkata (Calcutta). Refer to link below for more information.
What is the main difference between rockwell and brinell hardness?
Both are two different scales of hardness measurement.
The thermal expansion of fibre cement sheet is very small. Over the size of a 2400mm sheet, for a temperature change of 30°C, there would be much less than a millimetre change in the length of the sheet.
The expansion joints required between sheets are necessary to accommodate the movement and expansion of the material to which the sheets are fixed, which is usually much greater than that of the fibre cement sheet. (For example timber, steel, aluminium, and plastics expand more than fibre cement.)
Who discovered Portland cement?
John Smeaton, born in 1724, was a civil engineer from Austhorpe, Leeds, England. He is credited with developing modern cement.
What are the pros and cons of a girder bridge?
pro: you can get over the bridge,
con: it breaks if your obese
What is the description of a suspension bridge?
There were 2 towers, and cables would be hanging from the towers. Hangers(or stringers) would be hanging from the cables. The hangers and the towers combined would hold up the deck which at the side, gets connected to the anchor. On top of the anchor is the anchorage, which holds up the cables from the sides.
That is a simple description of a suspension bridge.
What is the purpose of guard rail provided over railway bridge?
The purpose of a rail is to keep someone from falling. You can hold onto the rail while walking up and down the stairs.
