Give a brief note on 'Balancing depth of cutting' |
|
Answer» If for a CHANNEL section the DEPTH of cutting is such that the quantity of excavation or cutting is equal to the earth filling required for making the banks, then depth of cutting is known as balancing depth or most economical depth of cutting. Balancing canal depth COMES when the canal is in partially embankment and partially in cutting. It is the depth of the canal (H) which gives equal amount of filling (i.e earth required for formation of Banks) and cutting (i.e earth from digging). For a given cross-section of a canal, it has only ONE balancing depth. For this depth the canal sectional will be economical. B= Bed width. b1,b2= width of embankment of left and RIGHT side respectively. d= excavation depth. h= embankment height. H=height of embankment from the bed of the canal. X- sectional area in cutting =Bd+sd2 X- sectional area in embankment = (b1+b2)h+2s1 h2 For balancing depth, Area in cutting = Area in embankment. or, Bd+sd2 = (b1+b2)h+2s1 h2 or, Bd+sd^2=(b1+b2)(H-d)+2s1(H-d)^2. From this equation 'd' can be calculated. |

Explain eletric motor |
|
Answer» An electric motor is an electrical machine that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy. Most electric motors operate through the interaction between the motor's magnetic field and winding currents to generate force in the FORM of rotation. Electric motors can be powered by direct current (DC) sources, such as from batteries, motor vehicles or rectifiers, or by alternating current (AC) sources, such as a power grid, inverters or electrical generators. An electric generator is mechanically identical to an electric motor, but operates in the reverse direction, accepting mechanical energy (such as from FLOWING water) and converting this mechanical energy into electrical energy. |

What are the objectives of highway geometric design? List the various geometric elements to be considered while designing a highway. |
|
Answer» The geometric design of roads is the branch of highway engineering concerned with the POSITIONING of the physical elements of the roadway according to standards and constraints. The basic objectives in geometric design are to optimize efficiency and safety while minimizing cost and environmental damage. Geometric design also affects an emerging fifth objective called "livability," which is defined as designing roads to foster broader community goals, including providing access to employment, schools, BUSINESSES and residences, ACCOMMODATE a range of travel modes such as walking, bicycling, transit, and automobiles, and minimizing fuel use, emissions and environmental damage.[1] |

Discuss about the critical combination of stresses to be considered in rigid pavements. |
|
Answer» As the name implies, rigid pavements are rigid i.e, they do not flex much under loading like flexible pavements. They are constructed using cement concrete. In this case, the load carrying CAPACITY is mainly due to the rigidity ad high modulus of elasticity of the SLAB (slab action). H. M. Westergaard is considered the pioneer in PROVIDING the rational treatment of the rigid pavement ANALYSIS. |
|
| 47. |
Explain the roles of base course and sub base courses in pavements. |
|
Answer» PAVEMENTS are FLEXIBLE pavements. Flexible pavements are so named because the total PAVEMENT structure deflects, or flexes, under loading. A flexible pavement structure is typically composed of several layers of material each of which receives the loads from the above layer, spreads them out, then passes them on to the layer below. Thus, the further down in the pavement structure a particular layer is, the less LOAD (in terms of force per area) it MUST carry . |
