Test A. Introduction As shown by the Griffith criterion‚ tensile strength of brittle materials is theoretical 1/8 of the compressive strength. Typically‚ tensile strength of rock materials is about 1/10 to 1/8 of the compressive strength. Hence‚ rock fails easily under tension. In design‚ rock should be subjected to minimum tensile stress. Several methods are commonly used to test the tensile strength of rocks: 1. Direct tensile test: Metal caps are cemented to the

The strengths approach is a method of working with people that focuses on developing their natural abilities and capabilities. It allows people to identify and build on their strengths so that they can reach their goals‚ and retain or regain independence in their daily lives (McCashen‚ 2005). Strengths-based approach is built on the premise that the normal human development process is towards healthy growth and fulfilment‚ and that everyone has strengths that will aid them in this process (McCashen

It is actually pretty scary how accurately is depicts me through my strengths. My five strengths‚ in order‚ were context‚ learner‚ input‚ achiever‚ and intellection. While reading through the descriptions of my strengths list it was as if I was having Déjà vu. One of the strengths I was assigned was input. The description of input for me was‚ “craving to know more

This book review is on Strengths Finder 2.0. Written by Tom Rath‚ this book follows and elaborates on Donald Clifton’s Strength Finder assessment created in 1998. Strength Finder 2.0 looks to dispel the outdated belief that only weaknesses need to be improved upon. The textbook Psychology Applied to Work describes this concept as positive psychology‚ "The aim of positive psychology is to shift the emphasis away from what is wrong with people to what is right with people" (Muchinsky & Culberson

What Strength Can Be “Having the power to move heavy weights or perform other physically demanding tasks” is defined as being strong (Oxford Dictionary). That is exactly what most people think of when they hear the word strong. To some‚ strength is only in physical form‚ but for others it comes in emotions and mental stability. When I hear the word my mind automatically thinks about mental capability and performance. I think of three ways to define the meaning of strong‚ physically‚ emotionally

One of the strengths of this test is that it includes a very detailed and easy to follow fitness classification chart. In order to find your classification‚ all you have to do is find your age and sex. After finding which chart relates to you based on your age and sex‚ you can easily identify which category you fit into. Not only that‚ but it doesn’t require much equipment. Any person that knows how to swim at least one stroke safely for 12 minutes could take this test. Another strength is that it

Concrete Cube Compressive Strength (7 days) Introduction : To determine the strength‚ maximum load can be applied and workability of concrete mixture. Theory : Hard concrete test were conducted at the age of 3‚ 7‚ 14‚ 21 and 28 days after curing(but we tested it for 7 days only). The concrete strength increases according to the age‚the mixture of its concrete design and the strength increment will continue for sometimes. Nevertheless‚ for most of the work‚ the concrete strength on the 28 days is set
