A.the soil is known to be expansive.

B.visual observation of the site has been conducted.

C.the building is large

D. none of the above

3. Because low-density soils help to cushion vibrations, a structure built on low-density soils will be subjected to lesser deformation than one built on high-density soils.

Homework Answers

Answer #1

1) True

  • The connection requires both to form a good bond between the Structural insulated members.

2) B) Visual observation of the site has been conducted

  • The bearing capacity value of the soil is different for various soils,so it is different for expansive soil
  • The weight of the building needs to be estimated so that we can apply required measures according to the bearing capacity of the soil.

3)False

  • Settlement is more likely to occur in low density soils

4)Ceiling joints

  • Provide Support
  • Resist outward thrust

5)The new growth rings are added at the centre of the tree

  • The rings expand with growth of the tree allowing a new one to form at the centre.

6) True

  • The engineer or the architect responsible for designing it ,provides the specifications
