Arectangular beam of width b = 15 in., effective depth d = 20.5 in., and total depth h = 23 in. spans 18.5 ft between simple supports. it will carry a com-puted dead load of 1.08 kipsyft including self-weight, plus a service live load of 2.29 kipsyft. reinforcement consists of four evenly spaced no. 7 (no. 22) bars in one row. the clear cover on the sides is 2 in. material strengths are f y = 60,000 psi and

Most leaks in reciprocating air compressors can be detected and minimized by: (clo4) a)-detecting leakage areas using ultrasonic acoustic detector. b)-tightening joints and connections c)-replacing faulty equipment d)-all of the given options

Agas is compressed from vi 0.3 m, p 1 bar to of v2 0.1 m3, p2--3 bar. pressure and volume are related linearly during the process. for the gas, find the work, in kj.

Acommercial grade cubical freezer, 4 m on a side, has a composite wall consisting of an exterior sheet of 5.0-mm thick plain carbon steel (kst= 60.5 w/m k), an intermediate layer of 100-mm thick polyurethane insulation (kins 0.02 w/m k), and an inner sheet of 5.0- mm thick aluminium alloy (kal polyurethane insulation and both metallic sheets are each characterized by a thermal contact resistance of r 2.5 x 104 m2 k/w. (a) what is the steady-state cooling load that must be maintained by the refrigerator under conditions for which the outer and inner surface temperatures are 25°c and -5°c, respectively? (b) for power saving purpose, which wall material should be increased/reduced in. thickness in order to reduce 50% of the cooling load found in part (a)? redesign the thickness of the proposed material. 177 w/m-k). adhesive interfaces between the q=575.93 w
