A two-story building has the following characteristics. Determine the seismic design category using ASCE 7-10.Risk Category ISite Class ASS = 0.75, S1 = 0.30

Use the Simplified Alternative Procedure in ASCE 7-10 Chapter 12, Section 12.14 to answer this question. Assume that the building meets the limitations described therein. A two-story building with the following characteristics has a bearing wall system consisting of light-frame (cold-formed steel) walls sheathed with wood structural panels rated for shear resistance. A certain shear wall in the building is 120 feet long by 22 feet tall and weighs 15 psf. Determine the seismic base shear, V, for the wall.Risk Category ISite Class DSS = 0.75, S1 = 0.30

Girders G1, G2 and G3 in the roof framing plan support loads from purlin P1. Use ASD to determine the maximum bending moment in girder G2. The roof dead load is D = 12 psf.    The reduced roof live load for this girder is Lr = 16 psf.

Girders G1, G2 and G3 in the roof framing plan support loads from purlin P1. Use ASD to determine the maximum bending moment in girder G1. The roof dead load is D = 15 psf.    The reduced roof live load for this girder is Lr = 18 psf.

(lecture) Reinforcements that are innately reinforcing Ie.g., food, water, shelter) are called _____ reinforcements.

(lecture) During what process does rehearsal generally occur so the observed behavior can be stored in memory?

A simple staining method stains: A. Only Gram positive bacteria B. Only Gram negative bacteria C. Both Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria D. Only rod shaped bacteria

The figure shows the x-y positions of a ball thrown at an initial velocity of m/s at an angle of 45o above the horizontal. If x3 = m, what is y2 in meters?
