Calculate the bending stress in a 1 ¾ in. x 12 in. x 18 ft. microllam lvl beam under the following load conditions: a)-2500 lb concentrated load at center with the beam fixed at both ends. b)-70.0 lb/ft uniform load with the beam fixed at both ends. c)-is the calculated stress acceptable?

Apump is used to circulate hot water in a home heating system. water enters the well-insulated pump operating at steady state at a rate of 0.42 gal/min. the inlet pressure and temperature are 14.7 lbf/in.2, and 180°f, respectively; at the exit the pressure is 60 lbf/in.2 the pump requires 1/15 hp of power input. water can be modeled as an incompressible substance with constant density of 60.58 lb/ft3 and constant specific heat of 1 btu/lb or. neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the temperature change, in °r, as the water flows through the pump.

The higher the astm grain-size number, the coarser the grain is. a)-true b)-false
