A simply supported beam with dimensions of b = 10 in., h = 22 in., d = 19.5 in., and L = 19 ft supports a uniform service (unfactored) dead load consisting of its own weight plus 1.2 kips/ft and a uniform service (unfactored) live load of 1.5 kips/ft. The concrete is normal-weight concrete. Determine the moment due to the factored loads, Mu.      

A beam has dimensions of b = 14 in., h = 22 in., and d = 19.5 in. and is reinforced with 5 No. 5 bars. The concrete strength is 6,100 psi, and the yield strength of the reinforcement is 60,000 psi. Assuming the reinforcement has yielded, determine the depth to the neutral axis, c.

Determine As,min for the following beam given that f’c = 3,750 psi and fy = 60,000 psi.

The quickest way to add a horizontal ruling line to your nameplate is with the ________________.

A beam has dimensions of b = 18 in., h = 28 in., and d = 25.5 in. and is reinforced with 5 No. 8 bars. The concrete strength is 4,600 psi, and the yield strength of the reinforcement is 60,000 psi. If the depth to the neutral surface is c = 4.106627 in., determine the strain in the reinforcement.

What fraction of ice is submerged when it floats in freshwater, given the density of water at 0°C is very close to 1000 kg/m^3 ?

A beam has dimensions of b = 18 in., h = 26 in., and d = 23.5 in. and is reinforced with 4 No. 7 bars. The concrete strength is 10,000 psi, and the yield strength of the reinforcement is 60,000 psi. Determine the nominal moment capacity, Mn, of the beam.

A simply supported beam with dimensions of b = 10 in., h = 28 in., d = 25.5 in., and L = 17 ft supports a uniform service (unfactored) dead load consisting of its own weight plus 1.0 kips/ft and a uniform service (unfactored) live load of 0.9 kips/ft. The concrete is normal-weight concrete. Determine the moment due to the factored loads, Mu.      

Two teams of nine members each engage in a tug of war. Each of the first team’s members has an average mass of 68 kg and exerts an average force of 1350 N horizontally. Each of the second team’s members has an average mass of 73 kg and exerts an average force of 1365 N horizontally. What is the acceleration of the two teams?

A beam has dimensions of b = 18 in., h = 24 in., and d = 21.5 in. and is reinforced with 4 No. 7 bars. The concrete strength is 7,900 psi, and the yield strength of the reinforcement is 60,000 psi. Assuming the reinforcement has yielded, determine the tensile force T in the reinforcement.
