Basic Research 1. What is a truss and how are trusses used in bridge design? Include the importance of triangular shapes in truss design. A truss is a formation produced by triangular components. The triangular units forming the truss are slim and straight in form. The truss bridges consist of a grouping of triangles. Trusses are used in bridge design to form a series of strong supports using triangles‚ and have the forces of tension and compression acting on them. The importance of triangular

III. RESULT AND DISCUSSION The bi-directional jute fiber reinforced epoxy were subjected to mechanical characterization. Its mechanical properties were analyzed. The results revealed that the jute epoxy composite exhibited good mechanical properties. A. Density And Void Fraction One of the main factors that determine the properties of the composite is density. It is often found that the theoretical values of density will not match with the experimentally measured values. This is primarily due to

DISCUSSION Design Concepts for Jib Cranes Paper by JAMES FISHER and STEVEN THOMAS (2nd Q. 2002) Discussion by MICHAEL HEMSTAD I thank the authors for a very thorough and informative article on jib cranes. To this‚ I would add the following regarding maximizing the crane’s effect for column design. For a single jib crane on a column‚ the position of the jib crane resulting in the maximum effect on the column can be calculated as follows. The position of the jib crane is described by the angle

1) Wrinkling in the flange. Wrinkling in a drawn part consists of a series of ridges that form radially in the undrawn flange of the work part due to compressive buckling. Wrinkling in the wall. If and when the flange is drawn into the cup‚ these ridges appear in the vertical wall. Tearing. Tearing is an open crack in the vertical wall‚ usually near the base of the drawn cup‚ due to high tensile stresses that cause thinning and failure of the metal at this location. This type of failure can also

Roof Truss Essay If I was building a 10 pitch roof I would use a roof truss rather than using a rafter. A roof truss is a rigid‚ strong frame work made up of wood members‚ such as 2” X 4”s‚ fastened and held together by metal connector plates. A roof truss consists of one or more triangular units constructed of straight pieces that are connected at the ends by joints. Personally roof trusses are superior due to its number of different designs‚ they are very strong‚ and lastly they are installed
