Question

1. A 12-story residential apartment is about to be built. The site investigate has been completed and the soil strata information is provided. The area of the footprint of the building is 100 x200 ft2 and the height of the building is 180 ft. The estimated vertical dead load of each story is 1000 kips and vertical live load is 15 psf. Based on the FEMA database, the building may be subjected to category S hurricane. a. Please design drilled shaft foundation to support such structure considering vertical loads and lateral loads. (Please use LPile to calculate lateral deflection. (demo version is free to download)) b. Please check the settlement of your design ISY BORING LOG Demo G.lent Demo Site Street Address, City, IL 2 SB-TEST Project: Logo Pnge Address: 8 10/14/2015 08:00 10/14/2015 10:00 Drilling Hollow Sten Augur Geoprobe 7822 DT Andrew Smith on-ling Start Date: Drilling End Date: Onlli Drillie Method: Drilling Equament; ampling Method(s).

Answer 1

can be read in one sitting and focuses on a self-contained incident or series of linked incidents, with the intent of evoking a "single effect" or mood, however there are many exceptions to this.

A dictionary definition is "an invented prose narrative shorter than a novel usually dealing with a few characters and aiming at unity of effect and often concentrating on the creation of mood rather than plot."^[1]

The short story is a crafted form in its own right. Short stories make use of plot, resonance, and other dynamic components as in a novel, but typically to a lesser degree. While the short story is largely distinct from the novel or novella (a shorter novel), authors generally draw from a common pool of literary techniques.

Short story writers may define their works as part of the artistic and personal expression of the form. They may also attempt to resist categorization by genre and fixed formation.

Short stories have deep roots and the power of short fiction has been recognised in modern society for hundreds of years. The short form is, conceivably, more natural to us than longer forms. We are drawn to short stories as the well-told story, and as William Boyd, the award-winning British author and short story writer has said:
