A rolled steel joist is simply supported at its ends and carries a uniformly distributed load which causes a maximum deflection of 10 mm and slope at the ends of 0.002 radian. The length of the joist will be, 14 M 13 M 16 m 15 M TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
The ratio of the length and diameter of a simply supported uniform circular beam which experiences maximum bending stress equal to tensile stress due to same load at its mid span, is 1/2 1/3 1/8 1/4 TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
A short column (30 cm × 20 cm) carries a load P 1 at 4 cm on one side and another load P2at 8 cm on the other side along a principal section parallel to longer dimension. If the extreme intensity on either side is same, the ratio of P1 to P2 will be 2/3 8/5 5/8 3/2 TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
A load of 1960 N is raised at the end of a steel wire. The minimum diameter of the wire so that stress in the wire does not exceed 100 N/mm² is: 5.0 mm 4.0 mm 5.5 mm 4.5 mm TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
Gradually applied static loads do not change with time their Direction Point of application Magnitude All of these TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
A material is said to be perfectly elastic if It does not regain its original shape at all It regains its original shape on removal of the load It regains its original shape partially on removal of the load None of these TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
For calculating the allowable stress of long columns σ0 = σy/n [1 - a (1/r)²]is the empirical formula, known as Perry Straight line formula Parabolic formula Rankine TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
A steel bar 20 mm in diameter simply-supported at its ends over a total span of 40 cm carries a load at its centre. If the maximum stress induced in the bar is limited to N/mm², the bending strain energy stored in the bar, is 711 N mm 511 N mm 411 N mm 611 N mm TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
A steel bar 5 m × 50 mm is loaded with 250,000 N. If the modulus of elasticity of the material is 0.2 MN/mm² and Poisson’s ratio is 0.25, the change in the volume of the bar is: 3.125 cm³ 1.125 cm³ 2.125 cm³ 4.125 cm² TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
