Rankine's theory of lateral pressure was extended to other soil by mohr resal and bell none of the options All of the options 18. A structure that carries water above land is known as an aqueduct outland over surface aquedant 19. Woodruff key permits movement between shaft and the hub. eccentric axial none of the listed radial 20. Based on the assumptions of Rankine's theory, the soil mass is homogeneous stratified submerged All of the options 21. The proportioning of tendons in design of prestressed concrete simple flat slab between the column and middle strips may be based on moments codes loads deflections 22. Complex stresses may occur when small values of shear and bending moment occur at section symmetrical section are used loads are along principal axes loads are inclined to principal axes 23. If the sand filled behind the retaining wall with saturated water with water, then the possible lateral pressure is lateral pressure due to submerged weight and lateral pressure due to water lateral pressure due to retaining wall All of the options none of the options 24. The design principles of continuous flat slab floors are similar to deformed one way slab two way slab continuous 25. Simple bending takes place if loading passes below shear centre for single symmetric open section loading plane coincides with one of the principal planes of doubly symmetric section loading passes above shear centre for single symmetric open section loading plane do not coincide with one of the principal planes of doubly symmetric section 26. The factor that is responsible for inclination of resultant pressure to the retaining wall is surcharge frictional force earth pressure weight of the wall 27.

It allows them to be installed without disturbing the causeway as it will span over the entire drainage width. circular rectangle box arch 30. Hard, rough and durable granite stone ballast gauge, shall be used. 20 mm 1mm 60mm 100 mm 31. What will be the ruling gradient in hills on 'Other district roads'? 1 in 10 1 in 20 1 in 3 1 in 5 32. Prestressed concrete although it is water tight, it is not vapour tight material tight liquid tight gas tight 33. The nominal reinforcement provided for floor slabs stipulated by Indian standard code is not less than? 0.5 0.8 0.7 0.15 34. Which of the following statement is true? lap joint and butt joint eliminates eccentricity at connection lap joint results in eccentricity of applied load, butt joint eliminates eccentricity at connection lap joint eliminates eccentricity of applied load, butt joint results in eccentricity at connection lap joint and butt joint results in eccentricity of applied load 35. What will be the maximum superrelevation in hills on Major District roads? 1 in 60 1 in 10 1 in 4 4 in 30 36. Use of lap joints is not recommended because bolts are in double shear eccentricity is eliminated stresses are distributed unevenly no bending is produced 37. Members used to carry wall loads over wall openings are called rafter purlin girder lintels 38. In the case of large tanks, the base slabs is subdivided by scale water joints lines 39. In a lap joint, at least bolts should be provided in a line. 3 0 2 1 40. Structural members subjected to bending and large axial compressive loads are known as strut beam-column lintel purlin 41. which of the following condition is true for web side plate connection? bolts should be designed to fail by bearing of connected plies bolts should be designed to fail by shear of bolt hsfg bolts should be used edge distances must be less than two times the bolt diameter 42. The metal linear concept in prestressed tanks has proved to be success in case of water tanks fluid tanks air tanks vapour tanks 43. Load transfer by a beam is primarily by neither bending nor shear shear only bending and shear bending only 44. In flexible end plate design, beam is designed for the torsional moment zero end moment shear force maximum bending moment 45. What are spandrels? exterior beams at floor level of buildings exterior columns interior beams at floor level of buildings interior columns 46. The modes of failure of plate girder are by yielding of compression flange and buckling of tension flange by buckling of tension flange only by yielding of tension flange and buckling of compression flange by yielding of compression flange only 47.
