The Iroquois Constitution It is about the Five Nations that formed the Iroquois Confederation and what they should and should not do. (Constitution and laws) The Five Nations included the Mohawk‚ Oneida‚ Onondaga‚ Cayuga‚ and Seneca tribes. Comparing the Great Law of Peace and The Constitution of The United States of America The United States Constitution was influenced by the concepts and the principles enclosed in The Great Law of Peace. Some of the same ideas that were in the Iroquois’

pile retaining walls requires several successive operations: (a) Evaluation of the forces and lateral pressures that act on the wall‚ (b) determination of the required depth of piling penetration‚ (c) computation of the maximum bending moments in the piling‚ (d) computation of the stresses in the wall and selection of the appropriate piling section and (e) the design of the walling and anchorage system. Before these operations can be initiated‚ however‚ certain preliminary information

Dato’ A.K. Nathan Chairman and Group MD of Eversendai Corporation‚ Tan Sri A.K. Nathan first involved himself in the steel industry At the tender age of 22 A.K. Nathan was a reserved young lad fuelled with a burning desire to be successful. A.K. Nathan made his entry in the construction business in 1982 by chance when he secured the services of a subcontractor to execute the temporary steel platform works for Dayabumi project in Kuala Lumpur. It was not long before A.K. Nathan found out that the

The main gear design criteria are: surface fatigue limit index‚ bending fatigue limit index‚ surface fatigue lifetime index‚ bending fatigue lifetime index‚ wear resistance of toots flank index and machinability index. Using computer allows a large amount of information to be treated rapidly. One the most suitable model‚ for ranking alternatives

Author(s) Hietaniemi‚ Jukka Title A Probabilistic Approach to Wood Charring Rate Abstract This report presents a probabilistic model for wood charring rate and an application of the model to assess fire resistance of a wooden load-bearing beam. The model is an empical one‚ based on quantification of the dependence of the wood charring rate on the principal physical factors governing the charring process. These factors include the influence of the heat flux exposing the wood surface‚ the

overcoming concrete’s natural weakness in tension. It can be used to produce beams‚ floors or bridges with a longer span than is practical with ordinary reinforced concrete. Prestressing tendons (generally of high tensile steel cable or rods) are used to provide a clamping load which produces a compressive stress that balances the tensile stress that the concrete compression member would otherwise experience due to a bending load. Traditional reinforced concrete is based on the use of steel reinforcement

The more the aspect ratio of a wing the greater the bending forces by the lift at the root. The thickness of a high aspect

BASICS OF LEVELLING USES OF LEVELLING In the context of tidal measurements‚ levelling is used for the following purposes: • Referencing of Tide Gauges: To determine and check the vertical stability of the tide gauge bench mark (TGBM) with respect to reference points (benchmarks) in its immediate vicinity. In order to isolate any local movements‚ there should be at least three such benchmarks‚ and the levelling should be repeated on an annual or semi-annual basis. • Connection
