Loading Tributary Areas Many floor systems consist of a reinforced concrete slab supported on a rectangular grid of beams. Such a grid of beams reduces the span of the slab and thus permits the designer to reduce the slab thickness. The distribution of floor loads on floor beams is based on the geometric configuration of the beams forming the grid. 1 3 Tributary area of columns A1‚ B2 and C1 shown shaded 2 Girders on all four sides Theoretical Tributary Areas 3 Theoretical

dictionary of American English‚ ’Design’ as a noun informally refers to a plan for the construction of an object (as in architectural blueprint‚ circuit diagrams and sewing patterns) while “to design” (verb) refers to making this plan. And as per the same dictionary‚ advertising is an example of a vital design discipline known as ’Communication Design’. But even the lexicographers would agree that design doesn’t have any specific definition. It would be safe to say that design is the language that communication

I. INTRODUCTION The traditional way to dispose waste water is though a cesspit. The solution is to design sewer system or sewage collection system. Three terms in common use in sanitary engineering are sewer‚ sewage‚ and sewerage. They require definition. The word sewer‚ as a noun‚ refers to a conduit or channel intended to convey sewage; the verb sewer means to supply or equip with sewers; and as an adjective sewer means pertaining to sewer as‚ for example‚ a sewer system. Sewage‚ as

Current research shows classroom design does have a significant impact on the engagement and learning of students. One such study found significant positive impact on learning when ownership of the space was a characteristic‚ as did flexibility in the layout and clearly defined separate learning areas (Barrett et al.‚ 2013). In this classroom design there are individual or personal territories which are clearly defined to allow students to feel a sense of ownership. The room plan maximises flexibility

Design Rationale It is known that the acceleration due to gravity (or g) is approximately 9.8m/s2 [down] or -9.8m/s2 [up]. What we are trying to do is design an experiment to measure and confirm this value. Our plan was to drop an object from a reasonable height and use a ticker tape timer to measure the amount of time and distance travelled between each time. The weight of the object used would have to be heavy enough that it would not be affected by air resistance. For example‚ you shouldn’t use
