RCC Structures Design If A is the area of the foundation of a retaining wall carrying a load W and retaining earth of weight 'w' per unit volume, the minimum depth (h) of the foundation from the free surface of the earth, is h = (W/Aw) [(1 + sin φ)/(1 + sin φ)] h = (W/Aw) [(1 - sin φ)/(1 + sin φ)]² h = (W/Aw) [(1 - sin φ)/(1 + sin φ)] h = √(W/Aw) [(1 - sin φ)/(1 + sin φ)]² h = (W/Aw) [(1 + sin φ)/(1 + sin φ)] h = (W/Aw) [(1 - sin φ)/(1 + sin φ)]² h = (W/Aw) [(1 - sin φ)/(1 + sin φ)] h = √(W/Aw) [(1 - sin φ)/(1 + sin φ)]² ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
RCC Structures Design In testing a pile by load test, pile platform is loaded with one and half times the design load and a maximum settlement is noted. The load is gradually removed and the consequent rebound is measured. For a safe pile, the net settlement (i.e. total settlement minus rebound) per tonne of test load should not exceed 10 mm 25 mm 20 mm 15 mm 10 mm 25 mm 20 mm 15 mm ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP

RCC Structures Design An R.C.C beam of 25 cm width has a clear span of 5 metres and carries a U.D.L. of 2000 kg/m inclusive of its self weight. If the lever arm of the section is 45 cm., the beam is Needs revision of the section Safe in shear Is safe with stirrups and inclined members Is safe with stirrups Needs revision of the section Safe in shear Is safe with stirrups and inclined members Is safe with stirrups ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
RCC Structures Design In a doubly-reinforced beam if ‘c’ and ‘t’ are stresses in concrete and tension reinforcement, ‘d’ is the effective depth and ‘n’ is depth of critical neutral axis, the following relationship holds good (m + c)/t = n/(d + n) mc/t = n/(d - n) (t + c)/n = (d + n)/n mc/t = (d - n)/t (m + c)/t = n/(d + n) mc/t = n/(d - n) (t + c)/n = (d + n)/n mc/t = (d - n)/t ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
