Concept explainers

Connections

In steel structures, connections are the members that join two or more steel members. The connections are the most important members of any steel structure, and hence, they are designed more carefully. The majority of the construction cost of steel structures is incurred due to the connections. The design of connections is done as per the recommendations and specifications of the American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC).

The soil in a deposit underlying an area where a level ground surface exists has a unit weight of 22 kN/m3. Determine the principal stresses o1 and oz at a depth of 5 m below the soil surface if the lateral pressure is 0.50 of the vertical pressure. Adjust your answer to ZERO decimal places. 01 = kN/m2, 03 = kN/m2
A moment magnitude of 4.8 produced a rupture length of 1550km and rupture width of 320km. Determine the slip distance in meters.
Regarding geotextiles used in separation, what is the required burst pressure of a geotextile supporting 75-mm maximum-size stone and heavy trucks with a tire inflation pressure of 1000-kPa? Use (where p’ = the pressure at the geotextile interface and p = the inflation pressure); a cumulative reduction factor = 2.0; and a factor of safety = 2.0.
An embankment consists of clay fill for which c′ = 25 kN/m2 and φ = 27° (from consolidated undrained tests with pore-pressure measurement). The average bulk unit-weight of the fill is 2 Mg/m3. Estimate the shear-strength in kPa of the material on a horizontal plane at a point 20 m below the surface of the embankment, if the pore pressure at this point is 180 kN/m2 as shown by a piezometer.
Explain briefly how the pressure created by wheel loads is transmitted through the ballast. What factors of the ballast influence the intensity of the pressure on the formation?
Determine the moment magnitude in a place where the length of the rupture was 550km, the slip was 2m and the width of the rupture was 700m. Use the usual shear modulus of the crust. a) Mw = ?
A 8 m-thick layer of stiff saturated clay is underlain by a layer of snad (Figure Q3). The sand is under artesian pressure. (water pressure head in the sand layer is shown on the piezometer). Calculate the maximum depth of cut, H, that can be made in the clay.
3.A half-closed clay layer is 8 m thick and it can be assumed that cv ¼ ch. Verticalsand drains 300 mm in diameter, spaced at 3 m centres in a square pattern, areto be used to increase the rate of consolidation of the clay under the increasedvertical stress due to the construction of an embankment. Without sand drainsthe degree of consolidation at the time the embankment is due to come into usehas been calculated as 25%. What degree of consolidation would be reachedwith the sand drains at the same time?
A 3.75 m thick clay layer (drained on one side) is normally consolidated. When the pressure increase from 50 KN/m2 to 150 KN/m2 , the void ratio decreases from 0.9 to 0.75.For the clay Cv=0.24 cm2/sec.a. Interpret the time in days for the clay layer to reach 50% consolidation. b. Interpret the settlement at that time i.e, at 50% consolidation.
20 A 4-meter clay layer (e = 0.92, Gs = 2.89, Cc = 0.315) is overlain with 4-meter-thick sand layer (e = 0.86, G = 2.63). The water table is at the interface of the sand and clay layer. If a 3-meter-thick land fill (γ = 17.21 kN/m3) is placed over the existing ground surface, compute the consolidation settlement (in mm.) of the clay layer. Hint: Use the land fill's resulting pressure on the ground surface as the stress increase. Round off to two decimal places.
A layer of stiff saturated clay is underlain by a layer of sand (Figure 9.5). The sand is under artesian pressure. Calculate the maximum depth of cut H in meters that can be made in the clay. H1=8.1m, H2=3.56m, ysat(????)=18.9 kn/m3
