PROJECT: STEEL BUILDING DESIGN CASE STUDY. SUBJECT: JOIST SELECTION (ECONOMICAL BAY STUDY) Investigate two framing options: Option I - joists span 30', Option II - joists span 36'. This bay framing study is done for joists (sheets 16-17), interior floor girders (sheets 18-22), and. interior fill beams (sheet 23-24). Comparison bays are priced out (sheet 25) to select economical bay framing.
This discovery of spontaneous âradioactivityâ (a term coined by Becquerelâs doctoral student, Marie Curie) eventually earned Becquerel a Nobel Prize for Physics in 1903, which he shared with Marie Curie and her husband Pierre Curie.enchmarks: Henri Becquerel discovers radioactivity on February 26, 1896. Credit: A photographic plate made by Henri Becquerel shows the effects of exposure to radioactivity. A metal Maltese cross, placed between the plate and radioactive uranium salt, left a clearly visible shadow on the plate.
In 1903, members of the French Academy of Sciences wrote a letter to the Swedish Academy in which they nominated the collective discoveries in the field of radioactivity made by Marie and Pierre Curie, as well as their contemporary Henri Becquerel, for the Nobel Prize in Physics.
