Section Factor for Trapezoidal Solution

Follow our step by step solution on how to calculate Section Factor for Trapezoidal?

FIRST Step Consider the formula

Z Trap = \frac{{(((B trap + d f(trap) \cdot z trap) \cdot d f(trap)))}^{1.5}}{\sqrt{B trap + 2 \cdot d f(trap) \cdot z trap}}

Next Step Substitute values of Variables

∴

Z Trap = \frac{{(((3.8105m + 3.32m \cdot 0.577) \cdot 3.32m))}^{1.5}}{\sqrt{3.8105m + 2 \cdot 3.32m \cdot 0.577}}

Next Step Prepare to Evaluate

∴

Z Trap = \frac{{(((3.8105 + 3.32 \cdot 0.577) \cdot 3.32))}^{1.5}}{\sqrt{3.8105 + 2 \cdot 3.32 \cdot 0.577}}

Next Step Evaluate

∴

Z Trap = 29.9849137028982m^2.5

LAST Step Rounding Answer

∴

Z Trap = 29.9849m^2.5
