Questions

  1. Q1

    1. a)

      Enlist various design philosophies/methods for design of RCC structures. Compare working stress method with limit state method.

      [4]
    2. b)

      A beam of size 230mm × 412 mm effective depth is simply supported over a span of 5m. The reinforcement consists of 4 bars of 16mm diameter at tension face. Find intensity of uniformly distributed load (including self-weight) that can be carried by beam. Use M25 & Fe415.

  2. Q2

    1. a)

      Draw and explain stress-strain curves for concrete as per LSM.

      [4]
    2. b)

      Calculate maximum safe superimposed load carried by beam of effective span 7.5m. The beam is detailed as below i) Width of rib = 300mm ii) Effective flange width = 1200mm iii) Thickness of flange = 130mm iv) Effective depth = 565 mm v) Tension steel = 5nos. of 25mm diameter vi) M25 grade of concrete and Fe500 grade of steel vii) Effective cover = 35mm 2

  3. Q3

    1. a)

      Draw stress block diagrams with all parameters for the design of doubly reinforced RCC section of flexural member using LSM.

      [2]
    2. b)

      Design cantilever slab using LSM approach for an effective span of 1.6m carrying live load of 3.0 kN/m 2 and floor finish of 1.5 kN/m 2 . Use M25 & Fe 415. Draw the details of the reinforcement.

      [2]
    2. b)

      A RC slab is to be provided for a passage measuring 3.2m × 7.5m with 230mm wide beams around all edges. Design the suitable slab assuming LL 3 kN/m 2 and FF 1.5 kN/m 2 . Use M25 and Fe500. Assume moderate exposure condition. Show details of the reinforcement.

  6. Q6

    1. Design a two way slab of effective spans 3.23m × 4.73m with two adjacent edges discontinuous. The slab is supported on beams of 230m width around all edges. Provide L.L. of 2.5kN/m 2 and F.F. of 1 kN/m 2 . Use M30 and Fe500. Show the details of the reinforcement with neat and clean sketch.
