Please show all working and draw diagrams if required. (1) A concrete highway is built of slabs 12 m long (15°C). How wide should the expansion cracks between the slabs be (at 15°C) to prevent buckling if the range of temperature is from -15°C to 50°C.
Question 1 (3 marks) A concrete highway is built of slabs 12 m long (at 15°C). How wide should the expansion cracks be- tween the slabs be at 15°C to prevent buckling of the concrete over the range of temperature -30°C to +50°C? The coefficient of thermal expansion for concrete is 12 x 10""(Cº). Question 2 (3+3 = 6 marks) (a) At 18.0°C, a certain quantity of oxygen occupies a volume of 61.5 L at an absolute pressure of 2.45...
SECTION I 01. (D) The Eiffel Tower (Fig. 13-31) is built of wrought iron approximately 300 m tall. Estimate how much its height changes between January (average temperature of 2°C) and July (average temperature of 25 C). Ignore the angles of the iron beams and treat the tower as a vertical beam. Ignore effects of Gravity. (T) A concrete highway is built of slabs 12 m long (15°C). How wide should the expansion cracks between the slabs be (at 15°C)...

Older railroad tracks in the U.S. are made of 12-m-long pieces of steel. When the tracks are laid, gaps are left between sections to prevent buckling when the steel termally expands. If a track is laid at 16*C, how large should the gaps be if the track is not to buckle when the temperature is as high as 50*C?
