Two rectangular tanks, A and B, are filled to a height, ha and hb respectively, as shown; ha is double hb, the width of container B is double that of A, and the containers have the same wall thickness. How does the pressure and the force at the bottom of the tanks compare, respectively? You may assume the length of each container is equal.

2) The flooring system shown is composed of slab panels measuring 20 X 25 ft in plan, supported by shallow column-line beams, as shown in the figure. The slab is pre-cast and resting on the beams. The panels carry a service live load of 144 psf in addition to the self-weight of the floor. a) Calculate the factored load on beam CD as per the tributary area shown. Assume a slab thickness of 7 in and the density of the concrete used to be 150 pcf. Use the load combinations from the ASCE 7-10 load combinations for Strength Design (2.3.2). b) Sketch the bending moment diagram (BMD) for the beam using the factored load calculated in step (a). c) Calculate Mu for the trapezoidal load distribution. d) Design a reinforced concrete beam using a rectangular section to carry the Mu calculated in step (c). You can use design guides, but show clear steps. Use concrete with fc'=4000 psi and steel with fy = 60000 psi.
