(1)In the university, mathematics, physics,
and chemistry are heavily
emphasized
throughout the engineering curriculum, but
particularly in the
first two or three years.
Mathematics is very important in all branches of
engineering, so it is greatly stressed. Today,
mathematics includes courses
in statistics,
which deals with gathering, classifying, and using
numerical
data, or pieces of information. An
important aspect of statistical
mathematics is
probability, which deals with what may happen when
there
are different factors, or variables,
that can change the results of a problem.
Before the construction of a bridge is
undertaken, for example, a statistical
study
is made of the amount of traffic the bridge will
be expected to handle.
In the design of the
bridge, variable such as water pressure on the
foundation, impact, the effects of different
wind forces, and many other
factors must be
considered.
(2)Passing sight distance is
the minimum sight distance that must be
available to enable the driver of one vehicle
to pass another vehicle, safely
and
comfortably, without interfering with the speed of
an oncoming
vehicle traveling at the design
speed, should it come into view after the
overtaking maneuver is started. The sight
distance available for passing at
any place is
the longest distance at which a driver whose eyes
are 3. 5 feet
above the pavement surface can
see the top of an object 3. 5
feet high
on the road.
Passing sight distance is
considered only on two-lane roads. At critical
locations, a stretch of four -lane
construction with stopping sight distance
is
sometimes more economical than two lanes with
passing sight distance.
(3)Placing is the
process of transferring the fresh concrete from
the
conveying device to its final place in the
forms. Prior to placing, loose rust
must be
removed from reinforcement, forms must be cleaned,
and
hardened surfaces of previous concrete
lifts must be cleaned and treated
appropriately. Placing and compacting are
critical in their effect on the
final quality
of the concrete. Proper placement must avoid
segregation,
displacement of forms or of
reinforcement in the forms, and poor bond
between successive layers of concrete.
Immediately upon placing, the
concrete should
be compacted by means of hand tools or vibrators.
Such
compacting prevents honeycombing, assures
close contact with forms and
reinforcement,
and serves as a partial remedy to possible prior
segregation.
Compacting is achieved by hand
tamping with a variety of special tools,
but
now more commonly and successfully with high
frequency,
power-driven vibrators. These are
of the internal type, immersed in the
concrete, or of the external type, attached to
the forms. The former are
preferable but must
be supplemented by the latter where narrow forms
or
other obstacles makes immersion impossible.
(4)That works must be completed to the
satisfaction of the employer ,
or his
representative
②
, does not give the
employer the right to demand an
unusually high
standard of quality throughout the works, in the
absence of
a prior express agreement.
Otherwise the employer might be able to
postpone indefinitely his liability to pay for
the works. The employer is
normally only
entitled to expect a standard of work that would
be regarded
as reasonable by competent persons
with considerable experience in the
class of
work covered by the particular contract. The
detailed requirements
of the specification
will have a considerable bearing on these matters.
(5)In an arch bridge the arch is the main
structural member and transmits
the loads
imposed on it to the abutments at the springing
points. The part of
the construction above the
arch ring when the roadway or railway is at a
higher level than the crown of the arch is
called the spandrel
③
.
Since steel
and reinforced concrete are capable of taking
tension, the
arch rings can be very much
thinner than in masonry construction. The
braced spandrel bridge is usually constructed
in steel, as is also the bridge
where the
roadway is supported by hangers from the
structural arch.
Another type of arched
bridge is the stiffened tied-arch, which is often
called a bow-string girder. In an archery bow
the string prevents the bow
from flattening
out. In a similar manner, the road-supporting
horizontal
girders are made strong enough to
absorb the arch thrusts, and therefore
the
reactions on the piers and abutments are vertical
。

短文翻译
1、The
next step is the testing of the earth foundation
on which the road is
to rest. Engineers
carefully study the soil to learn how solid it is,
how much
moisture it contains, and how well it
drains. Then they decide how the soil
should
be prepared and packed to provide a good, sturdy
foundation, or
roadbed. They prescribe the
thickness of the road layers, the size of the
rocks in them, and the other materials that
should be used.
While the testing is under
way, a group of surveyors begin to measure
the
land to find out exactly how much work needs to be
done and how
much it will cost. Then the
construction crew can finally move in.
下一步是测试的
基础上,对地球的道路是休息。工程师仔细研究土壤来了解它是多么的固体,
它含有多少水分,以及它如
何排水。然后他们决定如何应备土和包装提供了一个良好的,坚
实的基础,或路基。他们开的路层的厚度
,在岩石的尺寸,并应使用的其他材料。
虽然测试正在进行,一组测量员开始丈量土地找出需要做更多
的工作,它要花多少钱。然后,
施工人员终于可以移动。
2、Besides
its ability to sustain loads, concrete is also
required to be durable.
The durability of
concrete can be defined as its resistance to
deterioration
resulting from external and
internal causes. The external causes include the
effects of environmental and service
conditions to which concrete is
subjected, such as weathering, chemical
actions and wear. The internal
causes are the
effects of salts, particularly chlorides and
sulphates, in the
constituent materials,
interaction between the constituent materials,
such
as alkali-aggregate reaction, volume
changes, absorption and permeability.
In
order to produce a durable concrete care should be
taken to select
suitable constituent
materials. It is also important that the mix
contains
adequate quantities of materials in
proportions suitable for producing a
homogeneous and fully compacted concrete mass.
除了承受荷载的能力,混凝土的要求也将经久耐用。混凝土的耐久性被定义为外部和内部原
因导
致的耐磨性。外部原因包括环境和服务条件的混凝土遭受影响,如风化,化学作用和磨
损。内部原因是盐
的影响,特别是氯化物和硫酸盐,在构成材料,组成材料之间的相互作用,
如碱骨料反应,体积变化,吸
收和渗透。
为了生产高耐久性的混凝土,应注意选择合适的材料组分。同样重要的是,混合包含足够数
量的材料配比适合生产均匀致密的混凝土。
3、Fresh concrete
gains strength most rapidly during the first few
days and
weeks. Structural design is generally
based on the 28 day strength, about
70 percent
of which is reached at the end of the first week
after placing.
The final concrete strength
depends greatly on the conditions of moisture
and temperature during this initial period.
The maintenance of proper
conditions during
this time is known as curing. Thirty percent of
the
strength or more can be lost by premature
drying out of the concrete;
similar amounts
may be lost by permitting the concrete temperature
to drop
to 40 ℉ or lower during the first few
days unless the concrete is
maintained
continuously moist for a long time thereafter.
Freezing of fresh
concrete may reduce
its strength by as much as 50 percent.
新鲜混凝土获得
大部分强度在最初的几天和几周。结构设计是以28天强度,其中约百分之
70是达到在第一周结束后放
置。最后混凝土的强度在很大程度上取决于在这个初始阶段的
水分和温度条件。在这段时间的条件称为养
护。百分之三十或更多的强度可以通过过早的失
去了混凝土干燥;类似的量可以通过使混凝土温度降到4
0℉或在最初几天下除非混凝土连
续保持潮湿,此后很长一段时间了。新拌混凝土的冻可以减少多达百分
之50的强度
4、The essential difference between
the rigid pavement and flexible
pavement is
the manner in which they distribute the load over
the subgrade.
The rigid pavement, because of
its rigidity and high modulus of elasticity,
tends to distribute the load over a relatively
wide area of soil; thus, a major
portion of
the structural capacity is supplied by the slab
itself. The major
factor considered in the
design of rigid pavements is the structural
strength
of the concrete. For this reason,
minor variations in subgrade strength have
little influence upon the structural capacity
of the pavement.
刚性路面和柔性路面的本质区别是它们将荷载对路基的方式。刚性
路面,由于其刚度和弹性
模量高,往往会把荷载分布在相对宽的区域的土壤;因此,结构承载力的主要部
分是由板本
身。主要因素在刚性路面的设计被认为是混凝土结构强度。为此,在路基强度的微小变化对<
br>路面的结构能力影响不大。
