General Strength of Material given CSI Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Strength Figure = (Composite Sleeper Index*20)-10*Hardness Figure
S = (CSI*20)-10*H
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Strength Figure - Strength Figure is a number generally given for the strength o both green and dry timber used for sleepers.
Composite Sleeper Index - Composite Sleeper Index refers to composite sleeper index, which evolved from a combination of the properties of strength and hardness.
Hardness Figure - Hardness Figure is a number which is provided for assuming the hardness of both dry and green timber with 12% moisture content used as sleepers.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Composite Sleeper Index: 783 --> No Conversion Required
Hardness Figure: 1446 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

S = (CSI*20)-10*H --> (783*20)-10*1446

Evaluating ... ...

S = 1200

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1200 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

1200 <-- Strength Figure

Hardness of Material given CSI

Go Hardness Figure = ((20*Composite Sleeper Index)-Strength Figure)/10

Composite Sleeper Index

Go Composite Sleeper Index = (Strength Figure+(10*Hardness Figure))/20

General Strength of Material given CSI

Go Strength Figure = (Composite Sleeper Index*20)-10*Hardness Figure

General Strength of Material given CSI Formula

Strength Figure = (Composite Sleeper Index*20)-10*Hardness Figure
S = (CSI*20)-10*H

What are the advantages of Wooden Sleepers?

(a) Cheap and easy to manufacture.
(b) Absorbs shocks and bears a good capacity to dampen vibrations; therefore,
retains the packing well.
(c) Easy handling without damage
(d) Suitable for track-circuited sections
(e) Suitable for areas with yielding formations
(q Alignment can be easily corrected
(g) More suitable for modern methods of maintenance
(h) Can be used with or without stone ballast
(i) Can be used on bridges and ashpits also
(j) Can be used for gauntleted track
