UCL DEPARTMENT OF CIVIL, ENVIRONMENTAL GEOMATIC ENGINEERING MSc in Civil Engineering Test for applicants 1 Structures Q1. Determine the magnitudes of the forces in members a, b, c in the simplest possible way. Q2. A concrete road bridge is proposed to have the profile shown below. Indicate with diagrams how you might prestress this. Provide in your answer a list of the factors influencing your decisions 1 TURN OVER 2 Fluid Mechanics Q3. (a) A wide rectangular channel has a slope S = 0.02. The bed and walls of the channel are paved with concrete. The value of Mannings roughness coefficient 2 is n = 0.014 and the discharge per unit width of the channel is q = 3m /s. Specify if the flow in the channel is sub- or supercritical and find the depth and velocity of the flow. (b) The flow from the channel enters a natural channel of a similar cross-section. A downstream control is used to maintain the depth H = 1.2m just upstream of the entry point (see figure). To prevent the erosion of the natural bed a horizontal apron is used. Estimate the minimal required length of the apron L to ensure that the hydraulic jump occurs over the paved surface.
