if the average elevation is 67.50 feet and the bottom of footing is 58.35 feet what...
An 80 elevation would be 3 feet above the bottom of the excavation. The slope of the water table is 0.008, and the hydraulic conductivity is 80 feet per day (typical of a medium to fine sand) Assuming water flows in along all four side walls (equivalent to an area of 3 feet by 320 feet) and upward through the bottom (an 80 foot by 80 foot area), what pumping rate in gallons per minute, would be required to keep...
Design a trapezoidal channel that is capable of conveying 45 cfs from an elevation of 5000 feet to an elevation of 4500 feet. The total length from one point to another is 15 miles. The channel is to be rough concrete lined (n = 0.02). Try to minimize the amount of excavation required for the channel. If excavation costs are $5/cubic yard, determine the excavation costs. You should try to find the most efficient channel section. Use the area of...
the excavation volume for problem 3 using in cubic yards the the excavation volume for Problem 3 using the modified-average-end method 6. footing (26'x 16' x8) below supports a 2 x2 column of height 12, determine the volume of backfill that needs to be placed after the footing has been constructed. After backfilling operation is finished how much excavated soil may remain to be exported ? Shrinkage factor is 5% and the swelling factor is 30% for the excavated soil...
What is me angle of elevation from a point on the gourd 68 feet from the Base of a tree 28.5 feet tall?
What is the scale of measurement for the elevation of mountains (measured in feet above sea level)?
1. Airy Isostasy. Given a mountain peak having an elevation of 8000 meters, use Airy's isostasy theory to estimate the thickness of its "root" assuming an average crustal density of 2700 kg/m3 and that the rocks in the mountain are 10% less dense that the surrounding average crust. What is the total thickness from the mountain top to the bottom of its root in kilometers? How does this compare to the thickness of continental crust? Sea level Niveau de la...
9) A rectangular channel 8 feet wide carries 2.5 ft/s of water at a depth of 3.2 feet. a) What are the most efficient attributes (d, A, P, and R) of the channel? b) If a 1-foot wide pier is placed in the middle of the channel, find the elevation of the water surface at the pier. What is the minimum width of the constriction that will not cause a rise in the upstream water surface?
