Asphalt Binders and Mixtures

Asphalt binders are subsidiary products procured during the refining process of petroleum while manufacturing gasoline, diesel, and similar petroleum products. Asphalt binders are obtained from the residue that remains after the distillation of petroleum, this residue is further subjected to steam distillation and oxidation to remove the traces of gas oil present in the residue. Certain additives or modifiers are also added to asphalt binders to alter them to suit different applications.

Discuss the Fire Requirements in Buildings.
A water tower will be built to store water produced for needed fire flow. The design of the water tank will be cylindrical with a bottom radius of 50 ft. The service area has 20 one-story warehouses; all warehouses are noncombustible structures, and their average floor area is 0.50 acre. The sum of exposure and communication factors is 0.60 for each warehouse. What will be the needed fire flow (in GPM)? What will be the volume of water (in m3) that needs to be produced and stored in the water tank? What will be the gage pressure (in psi) at the bottom of the water tank?
