What is the scope of the Engineering Geology?

Answer»

Rocks are used in the formation of foundation or base of civil engineering projects, because the rocks are more
stable and having high strength (1). The branch of geology that deals with application of GEOLOGICAL knowledge to
civil engineering projects is known as geological engineering or engineering geology (2). Engineering geologists are
needed wherever an understanding of rock properties and geological structures is required, i.e. road construction,
building foundations, dam construction etc (3). The LOCAL geology of an AREA is important when planning a major
construction (4). The geology of an area represents the location and nature of any civil engineering structures (5).
Natural hazards (earthquake, landslide, and tsunami) are originated and produce the deformation on surface of earth.
Natural hazards cannot be prevented, but its prediction is determining (6).
Different type of rocks &there uses: Rocks are the naturally solid aggregate of minerals (7). Since the crust of the
earth is composed of rocks, a rock may be defined as a unit of the earth crust (8). Minerals are only responsible for
the formation of rocks (9).civil engineers need to know the properties of rocks, to many type of rocks for used many
purpose (as foundation rock, as building STONE, as road rock or metal etc) (10). Petrology is the branch of geology
which deals the study of rocks such as formation, classification, and occurrence (11). There are three types of rocks
on the basis of their origination.

Define friction. Give the types state law of limiting friction

Answer»

HELLO MATE
HERE IS YOUR ANSWER
…………………………………………

A force acting on the opposite direction to the motion of the body is KNOWN as friction or force of friction. Friction can be of the following two types.

STATIC Friction 2. Dynamic Friction

The friction EXPERIENCED by a body when at rest is known as static friction. The friction experienced by a body when at is known as dynamic friction. It is also known as kinetic friction. Kinetic friction are of the following two types :

a. sliding friction b. rolling friction

In this article we will discuss about the limiting friction. The friction experienced by a body , when its sliding over another body is known as sliding friction.

The friction experienced by a body , when balls or roller are interposed between two surfaces is known as rolling friction.

Limiting Friction

When a body just starts to slide over the surface of another one , the frictional force is developed between the surfaces. The maximum value of that frictional force is known as the limiting friction or static friction.

Laws of Limiting Friction

The direction of limiting friction force is always the opposite of the motion of the body.

The magnitude of the friction force is equal to the force that tends to move the body.

The magnitude of the limiting friction always have a constant ratio with the normal reaction force which acts between the two surfaces.

Limiting friction force depends on the ROUGHNESS of the surface.

Area between the surfaces is not RESPONSIBLE for the magnitude of the frictional force.

Hiii...frds.......pls.......

Answer»

Concepts:
The buoyant force

Reasoning:
When an object FLOATS, the magnitude of the buoyant force is EQUAL to the magnitude of its weight.

Details of the calculation:
The magnitude of the buoyant force is equal to the the magnitude of the weight wliquid of the displaced liquid.
wliquid = ρliquidVg.
The volume V of the displaced liquid is the volume of ONE HALF sphere, 
V = 2πr3/3 = 2π(6cm)3/3 = 452cm3. 
The magnitude of the weight of the object is wobject = mfrogg.  (We are neglecting the weight of the air-filled pod.)
ρliquidVg = mfrogg.  
mfrog = 1.35(g/cm3)452cm3 = 610g.

Krishna Kinkar Mishra, Civil engineer with experience at construction sites.

Answered Jul 24, 2017

Nowadays it is a COMMON practice to build partition walls over floor slabs without a beam below it. It is frequent in commercial multistoried buildings that consist of framed structures. With changing needs , these partition walls get their locations CHANGED. It is better to keep these partition walls light weight as far as possible. Wooden or aluminum framed partitions are light weight. But even brick partition walls upto 125 mm/5″ thick are constructed. These are non-loadbearing walls. For these brick partition walls 100 kg/sqm live load is increased for each partition during the design.

So if the load consideration is there in the design such partition walls can be constructed.

What are the types of reinforcements used to resist shear? Explain the action of different types of shear steel in resisting shear.

Answer»

Types of shear reinforcement : Vertical stirrups, Bent up bars along with stirrups, Inclined stirrups, contribution of bent up bars

TYPES OF SHEAR REINFORCEMENT


The following three types of shear reinforcement are used :


   Vertical stirrups.

   Bent up bars along with stirrups.

   Inclined stirrups.


Vertical Stirrups


These are the steel bars vertically placed AROUND the tensile reinforcement at suitable spacing along the length of the beam. Their diameter varies from 6 mm to 16 mm. The free ends of the stirrups are anchored in the compression zone of the beam to the anchor bars (hanger bar) or the compressive reinforcement. Depending upon the magnitude of the shear force to be RESISTED the vertical stirrups may be one legged, two legged, four legged and so on as shown in

Vertical Stirrups

Vertical Stirrups


It is desirable to use closely spaced stirrups for better prevention of the diagonal cracks. The spacing of stirrups near the supports is less as compared to spacing near the mid-span since shear force is maximum at the supports.

Bent up Bars along with Vertical Stirrups


Some of the longitudinal bars in a beam can be bent up near the supports where they are not required to resist BENDING moment (Bending Moment is very less near the supports). These bent up bars resist diagonal tension. Equal number of bars are to be bent on both sides to maintain symmetry. The bars can be bent up at more than one POINT uniformly along the length of the beam. These bars are usually bent at 45º as shown in Fig. 5.6.

Bent up Bars along with Vertical Stirrups

Bent up Bars along with Vertical Stirrups


This system is used for heavier shear FORCES. The total shear resistance of the beam is calculated by adding the contribution of bent up bars and vertical stirrups. The contribution of bent up bars is not greater than half of the total shear reinforcement.


Inclined Stirrups


Inclined stirrups are also provided generally at 45º for resisting diagonal tension. They are provided throughout the length of the beam.

Inclined Stirrups

Differentiate between three hinged and two hinged arches.

Answer»

Three hinged arches:

there are three HINGES in the arch, A, B and C. Generally there are three numbers of equilibrium equation, but the fourth equation is derived from the fact the ALGEBRAIC sum of all the moments at the HING C is 0. So there are four numbers of equilibrium equations, and we can determine all the four support REACTIONS, Va, Vb, Ha, and Hb.


TWO hinged arches:

there are two hinges A and B, and there are four support reactions. There are only three numbers of equations of equilibrium, so two hinged arches are indeterminate to the degree equal to 1.

To demonstrate the chemical effect of electric current

Answer»

The phenomenon of electrolysis is an important chemical effect of electric current. In a metallic conductor, the electric current is due to the drifting of free ELECTRONS, there is no chemical or physical change, only the generation of heat. However, in ionic solutions (electrolytes), the electric current is due to the movement of ions and there are associated chemical changes. In a typical EXPERIMENT of electrolysis, two metal rods are immersed in an ionic solution and connected to the two ends of a battery. The DISSOCIATED ions APPEAR in the two plates. Michael Faraday was the first to CARRY out quantitative investigations and summarise them in the now two famous laws of electrolysis.
