A simply supported beam with dimensions of b = 14 in., h = 26 in., d = 23.5 in., and L = 24 ft supports a uniform service (unfactored) dead load of 1.679167 kips/ft including its own self weight plus a uniform service (unfactored) live load of 1.4 kips/ft. The concrete is normal-weight concrete. The beam is reinforced with 5 No. 5 bars. The concrete strength is 10,000 psi, and the yield strength of the reinforcement is 60,000 psi. Determine the maximum applied bending moment due to the combined service loads (dead plus live), Ma.      

When faced with a situation in which an older patient with a terminal illness is in cardiac arrest, but written documentation regarding the patients wishes cannot be located, the EMT should:

Find the exact value of the real number y. y = csc-1(1) (5 points)

(08.04 LC) Which of the following ions is formed when a base is dissolved in a solution?

(08.02 MC) What is the molarity of a solution prepared by dissolving 20.0 grams of NaOH in sufficient water to make a solution with a total volume of 2.40 liters?

The most common treatment to prevent venous thromboembolism in high-risk surgical patient is the use of:

A rectangular beam with cross section b = 16 in., h = 22 in., and d = 19.5 in. supports a total factored uniform load of 3.10 kips/ft, including its own dead load. The beam is simply supported with a 21-ft span. It is reinforced with five No. 8 Grade 60 bars, three of which are cutoff between midspan and the support and two of which extend 10 in. past the centers of the supports. The concrete strength is 6,000 psi (normal weight). The beam has Grade 60 No. 3 stirrups satisfying ACI 318-14 Sections 9.7.6.2.2 and 9.6.3.3. The strength of the five bars is φMn = 320.8 kip-ft, and the strength of the remaining two bars is φMn = 134.5 kip-ft. Determine the distance from the support to the theoretical cutoff point (i.e. disregard ACI 318-14 Section 9.7.3.3).

What is the purpose of using hooks as anchorage?

When large amounts of steel are to be used, they can be bundled together. This decreases the required development length of each bar.

Bond stresses must be absent whenever the stress or force in a reinforcing bar changes from point to point along the length of the bar.
