A barge is pulled by two tugboats. The barge is aligned horizontally while the rope of tugboat 1 is inclined with the horizontal 9-degrees upward, and rop 2 is inclined with the horizontal 'a'-degrees downward. If the resultant of the forces exerted by the tugboats is a 3,686-lb force directed along the axis of the barge and -29 degrees, determine the magnitud tension (Ib) in rope 1 if a = 54° Answer in 2-decimal places only if applicable, and don't include units.

A garbage truck weighs 152 kN 20 m bridge girder, as shown in Figure 3. The total weight of the truck will be disuributed 38% in the passes through a front wheel while the remaining weights will be distributed at the rear wheel. If the wheels are 4 m apart from each other, determine the maximum moment applied in the bridge girder and only consider two locations of loads: one for front and the other one for rear, from the total weight of the garbage truck.

SITUATION 1: A precast girder of length 20 m is to be lifted at two points at equal distance from both ends. The weight of the girder is 0.10787 oz/mm. And its section modulus is 900,000 mm3. The moment should be made as small as possible. 1. Determine the distance (m) of the pick-up points from each end.
