More than 100 concrete trucks convene for massive pour at Four Seasons hotel Toronto
120 cement trucks convened at six different pouring locations
Co-ordination was crucial for Toronto’s largest residential concrete pour, which used 10,000 tons of concrete for the foundation.
It took five months to plan the pouring process which required a construction crew of approximately 180
used 120 concrete trucks running simultaneously for 12 hours.
420 million pounds of concrete on the 1,250,000 square-foot project.
Seven police officers positioned to control the flow of concrete and traffic
Result = 55-storey building comprised of 253-rooms
On site, concrete for the foundations is being unloaded onto a On site, concrete for the foundations is being unloaded onto a conical pile at a rate of 200 cubic feet per minute. As the conical pile at a rate of 200 cubic feet per minute. As the concrete is poured it is confined close to where it is to be laid. concrete is poured it is confined close to where it is to be laid.
The concrete pile remains cone-shaped and its height is always The concrete pile remains cone-shaped and its height is always equal to the radius of the cone’s base. Use calculus to show how equal to the radius of the cone’s base. Use calculus to show how fast the height of the pile is increasing when it is 18 feet tall. fast the height of the pile is increasing when it is 18 feet tall. P4.2P4.2

The satandard formula for the Area of The satandard formula for the Area of hemisphere = 2hemisphere = 2 ππ r² r² (here the radius is 3)(here the radius is 3)
II 22 = Sound Power ÷ Surface area = Sound Power ÷ Surface area this is called…this is called… Sound intensity Sound intensity (think power of speaker over area –small area is intense (think power of speaker over area –small area is intense

Assignment task Assignment task Calculate the Sound Pressure Level (SPL) in decibels (dB) of a Percussion drill 3 metres away with a sound power output of 50 watts (M)
formula...formula...
Now we need INow we need I 2…2… To find the decibels ,dB To find the decibels ,dB
At the end We use At the end We use 10 Log (I(I 2 ÷ 2 ÷ II 11 ))
II 1 1 is 10 is 10 - 1 2 - 1 2 ( a d e a d s m a l l n u mb er – t h e s ma l l e s t s o u n d w e c a n h e a r )( a d e a d s m a l l n u mb e r – t h e s ma l l es t s ou n d w e c a n h e a r )

Now put your figures into the Now put your figures into the formulaformula
From the calculator IFrom the calculator I 2 2 = 0.884 = 0.884 So then So then DB = 10 Log (0.884 / 10DB = 10 Log (0.884 / 10 ^ - 12^ - 12 ))
DBDB = = (put this into the calculator to f ind the answer) (put this into the calculator to f ind the answer)
10 Log (0.884 / 1010 Log (0.884 / 10 ^ - 12^ - 12 ) =) =
Decibels = 120dBDecibels = 120dB
