Answer to Problem 19.1Q

12 feet apart.

Explanation of Solution

Ground fault circuit interrupterduplex convenience outlet is defined as the electrical instrument that is used in an electric circuit to break the circuit if there is any imbalance in circuit current. The duplex convenience outlet in living areas should be a maximum of 12 feets apart.

It protects all electric instruments from overheating. GFCI duplex convenience outlet is used to decrease the fire risk in the circuit.

The structures in the following problems are single-story, one-bay assemblies representing one common lateral force- resisting systems used in buildings: Moment-Resisting Frames (MRFS). Each frame is fix-connected at its base. Your tasks are as follows: 1. 2. Solve for the support reactions (vertical, lateral, and moment) under the applied lateral load. Determine member end forces (axial, shear, and moment) for all relevant structural members.

Determine member end forces (axial, shear, and moment) for all relevant structural members. 1. 2. 3. Draw internal force diagrams (bending moment) for the required elements. 4. Determine the lateral deflection of joint B Be sure to clearly label your diagrams and show all work leading to your solutions. You must use the slope deflection equations to solve the problem, otherwise it will take forever. Use dimensions referenced to elements' centerlines. You shall neglect axial and shear induced deformations.
