Highway construction and engineering includes planning, designing, and building of highways. History stands witness that good roads lead to prosperity for distant societies. If a road is well planned and then executed according to the plan, a highway can open the gates of growth and development.

Highways connect two or more places and ensure that industries, employment, and development follow. Bridges, traffic lights, pavements, bike paths, and lane dividers make up a safe highway. Modern highways are known for their high capacity, efficiency, and planned construction. Highway networks are very important for the growth of a region. Highways open new trade routes and almost every industrial region in the world is connected to the major highway network system of that particular country.

CARA UNTUK MENJAWAB "BENDING STRESS"

untuk menjawab soalan Bending Stress ... 1. mesti kenalpasti bentuk beam dahulu iaitu a) Symmetrical: iaitu mempunyai bentuk yang sama atau simetri di bahagian atas dan bawah. sebagai contoh: b) Unsymmetrical: iaitu bentuk yang tidak sama di bahagian bawah dengan yang di bahagian atas. cuba tengok seperti di bawah ini selain daripada itu, bentuk L, U juga termasuk di dalam bentuk unsymmetrical 2) sekiranya symmetrical, pastikan samada beam itu jenis simply supported beam atau cantilever beams  i) jika simply supported beams:     ii) jika cantilever beams: 3) sekiranya unsymmetrical, step 1: calculate position of y dari tapak bawah step 2: calculate Ixx step 3: barulah calculate nilai stress compression dan tension dengan guna formula di bawah. Mari kita cuba selesaikan satu soalan untuk setiap kes symmetrical dan unsymmetrical. Kes 01: Symmetrical (types: cantilever beam & calculate diam...

tips for Easy Drawing Shear Force Diagram

SFD (Shear Force Diagram)? nahhhh now I give 5 steps and easy for drawing SFD almost all types of SFD correctly   kita pinjam diagram di atas dari web Mr Engineer Langkah 1 mestilah kena calculate nilai reactions bg simply supported beam. Both of the reactions will be equal. Since, beam is symmetrical. i.e., R1 = R2 = W/2 = 1000 kg..   Langkah kedua kira semua tindakan daya dengan guna equation asas pada point A, B dan C When simply supported beam is carrying point loads. Then find shear force value in sections. Shear force value will remain same up to point load. Value of shear force at point load changes and remain same until any other point load come into action. Shear force between ( A – B ) = S.F (A-B) = 1000 kg Shear force between (B – C) = S.F (B -C) = 1000 – 2000 S.F (B – C) = – 1000 kg. Langkah 3 Nahhhh boleh lah lukis SFD. amik pensel sekarang...   Nampak tak? Langkah 4 In case of simply supported be...

Time Waits for No One - How to manage your Time

Time Waits for No One - How to Manage Your Time By Cleo WhittinghamSubmitted On September 21, 2015 Who is to blame? We allow or minds to be bombarded with information every single second of the day. Media and the smartphone are the favourite culprits but the truth and reality behind that is, we have to switch the TV on, we have to open up the browser, we have to sign up to social media platforms. It's very interesting to hear many shout about the ultimate devil, Facebook, or for those who believe Twitter is for the more sophisticated among us but the cold hard facts are we love social media, we get all caught up in their webs (pun intended) and we thrive on it. Take Responsibility - Recognise your weakness muscles & give them a work out. Social media and the internet, family, work, squeezed in hobbies a bit of socialising wedged in at the weekend and we fall into bed at the end of a hectic day and our last thoughts drift to what we really want to be spending our time...
