Structural Analysis Pick up the correct statement for the web stiffeners. d is the distance between flange angles or the clear distance between flanges All of these Vertical stiffeners are spaced at a distance not greater than 1.5 d and not less than 0.33 d For horizontal stiffeners, d is the clear distance between the horizontal stiffener and the tension flange d is the distance between flange angles or the clear distance between flanges All of these Vertical stiffeners are spaced at a distance not greater than 1.5 d and not less than 0.33 d For horizontal stiffeners, d is the clear distance between the horizontal stiffener and the tension flange ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Structural Analysis The three moments equation is applicable only when There is no discontinuity such as hinges within the span There is no settlement of supports The spans are equal The beam is prismatic There is no discontinuity such as hinges within the span There is no settlement of supports The spans are equal The beam is prismatic ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Structural Analysis When a uniformly distributed load, shorter than the span of the girder, moves from left to right, then the conditions for maximum bending moment at a section is that the head of the load reaches the section the load position should be such that the section divides the load in the same ratio as it divides the span the tail of the load reaches the section the load position should be such that the section divides it equally on both sides the head of the load reaches the section the load position should be such that the section divides the load in the same ratio as it divides the span the tail of the load reaches the section the load position should be such that the section divides it equally on both sides ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
