Although delivering a safe and healthy building for human occupancy is the responsibility of design and construction professionals, the design and construction of buildings are done within the framework of numerous federal, state, and local laws or constraints. These laws and constraints are aimed at ensuring that public health and safety issues are carefully considered by design and construction professionals in delivering buildings.
Discuss the differences and relationships between the following constraints:
Building codes and construction standards
Zoning codes or ordinances and building codesA client is considering building a multistoried office development in a hurricane-prone area in Louisiana. The local building codes require specific features for hurricane protection. Answer the following questions:
Who is responsible for ensuring that such features are included in the design of the building, and what possible consequences may be incurred by the responsible party if it does not do so?
Who is responsible for verifying that the construction of the building complies with the hurricane protection provisions of the building codes? What authority does the responsible party have to verify such compliance?
a power plant burns 150,000 tonnes (1 tonne = 1,000 kg) of coal each year. The coal has 2.5% sulfur content, and the air pollution control equipment removals approximately 94% of sulfur. Assume 10% of the sulfur content ends up in the ash.
If, on 8/1/2019, 3-year municipal bonds with an AA- rating and a coupon rate of 6.50% (payable semiannually) are selling for $100.00, what would be the fair market value of the 300 Whittier bonds (not including the 8/1/2019 coupon payment)
A typical propane tank that we use for barbeque initially contains a pressure of 10 psi. The pressure is low, so we take it to the local store to fill the tank with more propane. After filling,the pressure is 100 psi.
Calcium sulfate (CaSO4, solubility product Ksp=2*10^-5 M^2), is added to initially pure water, such that solid CaSO4 remains at equilibrium. (Assume the sulfate does not participate in reaction other than the solubility product; no HSO4- formed).
the pressure inside a commercial airliner is maintained at 1.00 ATM. what is the net upward force exerted on a (1.0 m)(200 cm) cabin door if the outside pressure is 0.30 ATM?
The cost of a 100,000 bbl/d ethanol unit is $40,000,000. From historical records, the capacity exponent ratio for CCR is 0.75. Estimate the cost of a similar ethanol unit with a capacity of 135,000 bbl/d.
What is your recommendation for the maximum size of coarse aggregate for the following situation? A continuously reinforced concrete pavement cross section contains a layer of No. 6 reinforced bars at 15.24 cm centers,
in inclined circular gate with water on one side shown in the figure. determine the total resultant force acting on the gate and the total location of center pressure.
A falling-head permeability test was carried out on a clay soil of diameter 100 mm and length 150 mm. In 4 minutes the head in the standpipe of diameter 5mm dropped from 680 to 350 mm.
Determine the acceleration when t = 4 s, the displacement from t = 0 to t = 10 s, and the distance the particle travels during this time period.
Define flow at a hydraulic jump (upstream and downstream) in terms of the types of flow and corresponding Froude number. What is the depth of water at each section (upstream and downstream) compared to critical depth
A 8 inch polyethylene pipe has a flow rate of 1000 gallons/minute with a linear length of 10000ft. Starting at elevation 200ft then ends at 600ft elevation. Initial pressure is 40 psi. find the friction and the head loss.
