belt conveyor is required to deliver crushed limestone having a bulk density of 75 lb/cu ft at the rate of 200 tons/hr. The conveyor is to be 200 ft between center of pulleys with a rise of 25 ft. The largest lumps are 4 in. and constitute 15% of the total. The conveyor will discharge over the end. For a belt speed of 200 fpm, what is the minimum width of belt that can be used? Calculate the horse

3. A portable conveyor system is used to load wet sand from a stockpile to a concrete mix plant. The conveyor has a 30" wide belt that has a travel speed of 300 feet per minute. The angle of repose for the sand is 15°. Compute the average production rate of the conveyor in cubic yards per hour.
Question: Each of the four silos seen in the figure has an empty weight of 30MN, and can hold up to 105 MN of grain. The weight of the mat is 55 MN. Since each silo is filled independently, the resultant load imposed on the mat does not necessarily act through the centroid. Evaluate the various loading conditions and determine whether centrally loaded, one-way eccentric loaded, and two-way eccentric loading requirements will be met. If these requirements are not met, determine the minimum mat width, B, needed to satisfy these requirements. Allowable bearing capacity is given as qa=265kPa). 50m 12,5m Plan 50m 12,5m Profile Mat foundation

Calculate number of transit mixers (TM) required for transporting concrete from central batching plant to site. The cycle time data of a 6 m³ typical transit mixers is given below: O Loading time of TM = 6.0 minutes. O Travel time of loaded TM to site= 30 minutes. Average waiting time at site = 5.0 minutes Discharge time of concrete at site through concrete pump = 15 minutes. Travel time for return trip = 24 minutes. If the central batching plant having average output of 60 m³/hr is to run continuously, work out the requirement of no. of concrete pumps and TM.
Q.5/A 3.75 Cyd wheel loader used to load trucks from a stockpile of mixed aggregate. The haul- return distance is 300 ft. calculate the estimated productivity of loader in tons (conservative) based on 50 min/hr. Efficiency? The loader will move forward on the first gear in haul and on the third forward in return; the unit weight is 3400 Ib/Cyd, and the swell percent is 20%.

A member 1.5 m long has a cross section 75 mm by75 mm. The member becomes 0.7 mm longer and0.01 mm narrower after loading. Determine Poisson’sratio for the material.
A 3-cy wheel loader will be used to load trucks from a quarry stockpile of processed aggregates having a maximum size of _ in. The haul distance will be negligible. The aggregate has a loose unit weight of 2,950 lb per cu yd. Estimate the loader production in tons based on a 50-min hour efficiency factor. Use an aggressive cycle time and fill factor.
Aggregates from a material storage site are required for the embankment of a roadway. The porosity of the aggregates at the storage is 75% and it is desired that these be compacted until a porosity of 20% is reached. The section of current interest for the embankment is 8m wide, 1.2m compacted thickness and 220m long. Compute the total cost if each truckload of aggregates to be transported will cost around 3550.00 and each truckload has a capacity of 7m3.
For the beam shown, the magnitude of the concentrated load is P = 28 kN, the magnitude of the couple is Mg = 200 kN-m, and the beam lengths are a = 4.8 m and b= 14.4 m. (a) derive equations for the shear force V and the bending moment M for any location in the beam. Place the origin at point. A. (b) use the derived functions to plot the shear-force and bending-moment diagrams for the beam. Use your diagrams to determine the magnitudes of the maximum shear force and the maximum bending moment. Note that answers may be positive or negative. Here, "maximum" refers to the largest magnitude value, but you should enter your shear force and bending moment with the correct sign, using the sign convention presented in Section 7.2 of the textbook. If the magnitudes of the largest positive and largest negative values are the same, enter a positive number. P a MB B b C X
Two materials, A and B, are to be separated using two unit operations, 1 and 2. The feed has 10 tons/h A and 4 tons/h B.
