Stirrups are used in a concrete beam: a. to increase the beam's compressive strength.
b. to provide tensile strength in the beam since concrtete's tensile strength is negligible.
c. to increase the tensile strength of the beam beyond that provided by concrete.
d. to provide shear strength in the beam because concrete's shear strength is negligible.
e. to increase the shear strength of the beam beyond that provided by the concrete.

Adouble-strand no. 60 roller chain is used to transmit power between a 13-tooth driving sprocket rotating at 300 rev/min and a 52-tooth driven sprocket. a) what is the allowable horsepower of this drive? b) estimate the center-to-center distance if the chain length is 82 pitches. c) estimate the torque and bending force on the driving shaft by the chain if the actual horsepower transmitted is 30 percent less than the corrected (allowable) power.
