If p₁ and p₂ are mutually perpendicular principal stresses acting on a soil mass, the normal stress on any plane inclined at angle θ° to the principal plane carrying the principal stress p₁, is: [(p₁ - p₂)/2] + [(p₁ + p₂)/2] sin 2θ [(p₁ - p₂)/2] + [(p₁ + p₂)/2] cos 2θ [(p₁ + p₂)/2] + [(p₁ - p₂)/2] cos 2θ [(p₁ + p₂)/2] + [(p₁ - p₂)/2] sin 2θ TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?

After pre-stressing process is completed, a loss of stress is due to Creep of concrete Shrinkage of concrete Elastic shortening of concrete All of the listed here TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
If the length of a combined footing for two columns l meters apart is L and the projection on the left side of the exterior column is x, then the projection y on the right side of the exterior column, in order to have a uniformly distributed load, is (where x̅ is the distance of centre of gravity of column loads). y = L/2 - (l - x̅) y = L/2 + (l - x̅) y = L/2 - (l + x̅) y = L - (l - x̅) TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
