The total vertical normal stress on a certain plane at a given point in a clayey soil stratum is 120 kpa, while the effective vertical normal stress is 90 kpa. the total cohesion obtained from a u triaxial test was 100 kpa, while the total cohesion and total friction angle found using a cu test were found to be 58 kpa are and 20 , respectively. the effective cohesion and effective friction angle of the soil are 40 kpa and 31 , respectively. a foundation to be built nearby will induce a shear stress of 60 kpa on this plane. compute the short term and long-term factors of safety against shear failure for this site.

Along 8-cm diameter steam pipe whose external surface temperature is 900c connects two buildings. the pipe is exposed to ambient air at 70c with a wind speed of 50 km/hr blowing across the pipe. determine the heat loss from the pipe per unit length. (b) air at 500c enters a section of a rectangular duct (15 cm x 20 cm) at an average velocity of 7 m/s. if the walls of the duct are maintained at 100c. a) the length of the tube for an exit temperature of the air to be 40 0c. b)the rate of heat transfer from the air. c) the fan power needed to overcome the pressure drop in this section of the duct.
