I used these emails to finish my bid and present it to my manager. The second document I received was an RFI…
According to Enhanced Fujita Scale, the tornadoes in the United States and Canada can be rated in six categories: EF0, EF1, EF2, EF3, EF4 and EF5. Scale Wind speed (mph) Rating classifications EF0 65–85 Weak EF1 86–110 Weak EF2 111–135 Strong and significant EF3 136–165 Strong, significant and intense EF4 166–200 Violent, significant and intense EF5 >200 Violent, significant and intense Figure 1. The six categories of tornadoes of the Enhanced Fujita Scale EF5 tornadoes have happened in the…
I was more than willing to do so. After the first 16 foot-long pole was into the hole we back filled it and I began tamping the dirt. To do this particular tamping I was using about a half inch rebar to pack down the dirt that is in the area about three feet around the pole. Thrusting this half inch rebar trying to pack a three feet area all around the pole is very tiring but it had to be done. And there were still two other poles to put in. Not only that, but there are about a total of three…

Earthquakes for been a constant force of nature since the beginning of the Earth. The damage done by earthquakes over time cannot be over looked. The damage has been monetary, emotional, and has taken many lives. Today, a capstone in Civil Engineering, Earthquake Engineering is trying to reduce all of these damages using modern technology and resources to build structures that can withstand the mass forces of earthquakes. Earthquake engineering is broken down into two major parts, the first…
always worsen, and before you know it, you could be faced with the expense of replacing your pavement completely. Breaks in the pavement allow water to enter and erode the supporting foundation. If you have concrete pavement, the water can cause the rebar to rust, weakening the pavement's integrity. If you have asphalt pavement, the water penetration can cause the pavement to subside, develop alligator cracking or become uneven due to ground heave from the freeze/thaw cycle. • Asphalt Overlays:…
Title: Aquatecture Background: A third of the earth is covered in water, and most of the world’s population lives close to large bodies of water, including the Philippines which is made up of islands. Thus encouraging naval architecture and stilt designs Water has been important in helping create architecture, from the people who lived by the two rivers; Tigris and Euphrates to the people of Dubai who are living on artificial islands today. Since we highly depend on, use and live with water, it…
