Design of Masonry Structures Rich cement mortars are more liable to cracking as compared to lean mortars because rich mortars have High shrinkage Less strength None of above Both (A) and (B) High shrinkage Less strength None of above Both (A) and (B) ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Design of Masonry Structures Consider the following statements:1. Masonry in rich cement mortar though having good strength with high shrinkage is much liable for surface cracks.2. Lime mortar possesses poor workability and poor water retentivity and also suffers high shrinkage.3. Masonry in lime mortar has better resistance against rain penetration and is less liable to crack when compared to masonry in cement mortar.Which of these statements are correct? 1 and 3 1 and 2 1, 2 and 3 2 and 3 1 and 3 1 and 2 1, 2 and 3 2 and 3 ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Design of Masonry Structures A 200 mm thick brick masonry wall made of modular bricks carries an axial load of 30 kN/m from wall above and an eccentric load of 20 kN/m from RCC floor acting at a distance of 47.5 mm from the centre line of the wall.
