Determine the required splice length for the galvanized longitudinal bars in the following tied column made of normal-weight concrete. Assume that some of the longitudinal bars are in tension and that the connection should be designed as a Class B contact lap splice. Use ACI 318-14 Table 25.4.2.2 to calculate the development length, and assume that the ties satisfy the Code minimum.Column width, b = 22 in.Column thickness, h = 24 in.Clear cover to ties = 1.5 in.Number of longitudinal bars = 12Size of longitudinal bars = No. 10Size of ties = No. 4Concrete strength = 4,500 psiYield strength of longitudinal bars = 60,000 psiYield strength of ties = 40,000 psi

You need to collect blood from a dog donor for a blood transfusion. This dog weighs 100 pounds and is healthy and in normal body condition. Calculate the maximum volume of blood you can safely collect from this dog right now.  Be sure to include correct units when reporting your final answer. You do not have to show your work to receive full credit for your response; however, I can only give partial credit if you do show your work. 🙂

Which of the following parts of the CBC can be reported using the blood smear? Select all answers which apply.
