Civil Engineering

Remember K H D | d c m (kilo, hecto, deka, (liter, meter, gram), deci, centi, milli). Kiloliters are three places to the left of liters. So you have to move the decimal place three times to the left. You will get 1,000,000 L = 1,000 kL.

a simple definition " IT'S A COUPLE OF FORCE HAVING EQUAL MAGNITUDE BUT OPPOSITE IN DIRECTION & HAVING VERY LESS DISTANCE BETWEEN THEM"

A lot of stuff! You know.... like things! GO BRIDGES FOR CARRYING STUFF! (and things!)

The question, as stated, cannot be answered sensibly. A cubic metre is a measure of volume, with dimensions [L3]. A tonne is a measure of mass, with dimensions [M]. The two measure different things and basic dimensional analysis teaches that you cannot convert between measures with different dimensions such as these without additional information.

I have entered all the items in excel and linked all the work sheets. Whenever the rates of material / labour / fuel change, you just have to change it in one place only and it is taken care automatically. You can contact me for getting a copy of it. My id is ram7091@yahoo.com. I have worked for many days for incorporating all the details as per CPWD 2007 Manual and linking all the sheets. It is not possible for me to give it at free of cost.

Apart from bridge building, arches are commonly used for doorways/openings. Throughout history arches have been used to spread vertical loads to create openings. Examples range from small garden arches to the Colosseum.

upto M25 it is nominal mix but after that are the design mix which need to becalculated.....

Impact test determines the amount of energy absorbed by a material during fracture. This absorbed energy is a measure of a given material's toughness and acts as a tool to study temperature-dependent brittle-ductile transition.

It is to determine whether the material is brittle or ductile in nature.

It can take up to at least five years to build a hydroelectric dam.

It all depends on the dimensions of the steel beam

because it is the supreme elemnt of the structure.and all the loads can bear it so that's y we take strength reduction factor is less

A shallow foundation is generally considered any foundation element that is 6 feet or less in depth. or the depth of foundation is equals to its width of the foundation. Examples are thickened edge slabs and grade beams that are supporting minimal weight.

The longest span an arch bridge can go is relevent to the radius of the arch.

Singly reinforced beams have reinforcing only on the tension face. Doubly reinforced beams have reinforcing on the tension and compression face. Doubly reinforced beams can increase section capacity, but are primarily used to increase the ductility of the concrete beam. In certain codes, if the concrete section is controlled by the concrete failing in compression before the tension steel rebar yields (called a compression-controlled or brittle section), the calculated section capacity must be reduced to account for the brittle and sudden/unpredictable nature of a compression controlled (also called a brittle) failure. In order to make the section controlled by the yielding of the tension reinforcement (called a tension-controlled or ductile section), the ductility must be increased. This can be accomplished by adding steel in the compression zone, which gives strength to the compression area, thereby delaying the failure of the concrete. Enough compression steel can cause the section to switch from a brittle mode-of-failure to a ductile mode-of-failure, thereby permitting the designer to not decrease the section capacity from its calculated value.

When identifying a doubly- reinforced beam, be sure that the steel in the compression area is meant to be for strength. Oftentimes, all faces of a beam will have some reinforcing for temperature/shrinkage protection and to tie the stirrups to. Steel that is only there for temp/shrinkage or to facilitate tying the rebar will usually be small and not much of it. In buildings, they will be often #3 bars @ 12" centers. In bridges, they may be #4 bars. These small bars should not be counted as compression-zone reinforcing. Look for bars in the compression zone that are of similar size to the main tension reinforcing.

A bridge is a way to connect two networks. For example, if a user has two or more computers connected to a wired network, and one of those wired computers is connected to a wireless network, the computer connected to both the wired and wireless networks could be used as a bridge. With the bridged networks, the wired computers could access the wireless network.

Because all construction takes place in or on the ground, geotechnical engineering plays a crucial role in all civil engineering projects. The need to investigate the ground is of vital importance before any construction work takes place. The failure to carry out adequate site investigations often has had dramatic and expensive consequences on construction projects. Geotechnical engineers require a wide variety of skills and, in general, need to be smarter than other kinds of engineer. Whereas most engineers have the luxury of specifying the materials they use, the geotechnical engineer has no choice but to work with the natural soil and rock as he or she finds it. In a geotechnical consulting firm, everyone works in a team to complete a project. A team usually comprises a project director who oversees the whole project; a senior engineer, assisted by one or more engineers and geologists; a checker or checkers to make sure everything is done correctly; followed by an internal and an external reviewer.

( A bridge was designed as a vertical curve above a train line according to the gradients (g 1 =+3.6%g g 2 =-2.9%) , if you know that the designed length of the bridge equal to 530 m find the following : a) Rate of change in gradient for each station . b) Elevation and station for each of intersection and end points if you know that the elevation and station of start point are 34.5 m and 23 + 00 respectively . c) Check if the design is ok if you know that the level of train line is 35.00 m and the minimum allowable height of the bridge at mid -point is 5.2 m

I guess it's the strongest form of structure to form the end of the upright cylinder which is the basic reactor enclosure. The reactor must be enclosed with a structure which can contain the worst type of reactor failure which would release a lot of steam. It also protects the reactor and its equipment from the weather.

The nasal bones make up the bridge of your nose. There are two small oblong bones, varying in size and form in different individuals; they are placed side by side at the middle and upper part of the face, and form, by their junction, "the bridge" of the nose.

It is a measure of volume usually used when measuring the water in a lake or large reservoir. An acre foot is the amount of water that it would take to cover one acre of land with one foot of water.

The average salary of an environmental engineer is 83,000 dollars per year. The entry level positions usually pay around 62,000 dollars per year.

In the UK, you need a degree to become a Civil Engineer. This can be in the form of a four year MEng, or a three year BEng. To become Chartered (The professional recognition) you must undertake 3+ years of professional development and then take a test with the ICE. Professional development is a wide ranging term including, documenting the work you have performed showing a range of skills. This depends on the type of job you have, i.e. Consultancy or Contracting.
