Where is the load centered if the distance from the handle to the wheel axle is 4 feet?
Assuming the load is evenly distributed from the wheel to the handle, it would be 2 feet. But if it is a wheelbarrow, there is more load over the wheel than load at the handle end when lifted, so my estimate would be 1.5 feet from the wheel.
What is the occupancy load for a 6500 sq ft restrant?
Depends upon many factors, not the least of which includes what life safety code was locally adopted. For example, under NFPA 101 (2009) Life Safety Code, you would divide the net square footage by 15 square feet per person to obtain the area limit (433 people). Then you would calculate the egress load limit by allowing 0.2 inches per person. For instance, you would need at least 87 inches of egress openings (at least three doors 36 inches wide) to accommodate 433 people. However, if there is live entertainment, the front doors alone would need to support exit of 2/3 of the max load, i.e., 289 people, which would require at least two 36-inch doors (out-swinging, panic hardware, etc), among other factors. Your local fire protection engineer and fire marshal will do the calculations for your particular situation, based upon the local code.
What is the ideal value of percent regulation?
The percentage of regulation is a measure of the variation of ac voltage as a function of dc output voltage. Perentage of regulation=(Vnl-Vfl)/Vfl *100% Vnl=vltge acrs load rstnce at min crnt Vfl=vltge acrs load rstnce at max crnt
How would the amount of force that is needed to put the load up the inclined plane be reduced?
Reduce the friction
Why did the backpackers carry a flashlight?
he wanted to lighten his load
The load limit on a small bridge is 8 ton what is the load limit in pounds?
What are the basis of a bridge load limit?
What is the standard dead load of an elevator in kN?
The standard dead load of an elevator is about 450 pounds. This translates to a kN value of around 0.75.
How do you calculate working load limit?
There are several ways to calculate working load limit. One of these includes Minimum Breaking Load (MBL) divided by Working Load Limit (WLL) equals Working Load Limit (WLL).
How would you use load in a sentence?
I will load the car. The truck's load is too heavy. Load the wheel barrow with plants. The load limit is 4,000 lbs. per axle.
What happens when you overload an elevator?
if elevator provided with the overload protection you will get indication. if further load it starts moving and gains speed
What does over capacity mean?
In a way it seems like a contradictory idea. How can a machine be producing 'over capacity' if capacity is the limit of its ability?When elevators are designed, engineered and built, all the technical data connected with the materials used, their ability to carry loads, and changes that occur to materials during use (related to heating up, for example) all go into a careful estimate of what the elevator can safely carry, and probably also an estimate of the absolute maximum load, which if exceeded, would cause failure. But these are theoretical, or mathematical estimates of the elevator's ability. Given any number of factors, a specific elevator may be able to carry a load larger than the calculated limit for some length of time. But weights just a little over normal safety capacity would cause more rapid wear of the system, and would probably not cause catastrohpic failure.
What are the units of force and how would you measure a force?
Newtons (N) Measure force with strain gauges (or load cells)
What is the difference between elevator lift and crane lift?
The way they lift the load.
What is load limit governor?
A load limit governor is a device that is controls the amount fuel that goes to the engine. This ensures that the amount of fuel that goes into the engine is not above the specified limit.
How do you get the aggregate working load limit for a commercial motor vehicles?
I've never heard of an aggregate working load limit for a vehicle. The only place that term is used in the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration Reglations is in the load securement section. If that is what you meant, it's pretty simple. Most tiedowns and chains should be marked with their Working Load Limit. If they are, you simply add them up. Five synthetic straps with Load Limits of 7,000 pounds each equals an aggregate working load limit of 35,000 pounds. In most cases, your aggregate working load limit must be at least 50% of the total weight of what you are carrying. In this case, these 5 tiedowns' load limit would be enough for something weighing 70,000 pounds. If you don't know what the Load Limits are, you can go to 393.108 in the regulations. They have a list of tiedown types and sizes. If the tiedown is not marked, you must use the assigned rating from the regs. You need to check 393.100 through 393.136 though. Many commodities, such as bundled lumber, vehicles, heavy equipment, have specific requirements in addition to the genereal load limit requirements. Also, keep in mind, if you are inspected and your load is not secured sufficiently, it is an Out of Service Violation and you can probably count on being issued a ticket, being parked where you are, and your company's safety rating going down." That is not quite right. According to the rules the aggregate working load limit is "the sum of one half of the working load limit of each tiedown". This means you divide the load rating of each tiedown by two and then add them up to get the aggregate working load limit. If your tiedowns are rated at 7,000 lbs and you have 5 tiedowns , the aggregate working load limit, the sum of one half of the working load limit of all tiedowns would be 17,500 lbs. Securment rules state "The aggregate working load limit of any securement system used to secure an article or group of articles against movement must be at least one-half the weight of the article or group of articles". Divide the working load limit of each tiedown used by two and add them together. This number needs to be equal to or greater than half the weight of your load. It is an overcomplicated, fancy way of saying that the load limit of your tiedowns must be equal to the weight of the load.
Where does a capacity plate indicate?
Safe load limit
Why load resister is conected across the circuits?
Load resistors are connected across the circuit to limit the current flowing through the load.
