  3. Q3

    1. Design a continuous floor beam B8-B9-B10 as shown in Figure 1 using IS code coefficients (or moment distribution). Thickness of the all floor slab is 120 mm, live load and floor finish load on all slabs are 2.5 kN/m 2 and 1.5 kN/m 2 , respectively. The wall on this beam is 150 mm thick and 2.7 m high. Use M 25 and Fe 415 steel. Design longitudinal reinforcement for all the spans and support for flexure. Design shear reinforcement only for beam B19. Draw neat sketch showing details of main and shear reinforcement. Use LSM.

  4. Q4

    1. Continuous RC beam ABCD of rectangular section is simply supported at A and D and continuous over support B and C. Span AB = 4.2m, BC 6.0m and CD = 5.2m. The beam carries working dead load of 22 kN/m (including its self-weight) and working live load of 19 kN/m. The beam supports 120mm slab on one side. Calculate design moment for span BC and support C after 20 % redistribution of moments by considering proper load case. Design span BC and support C for flexure only. Draw the reinforcement details. Material- Concrete of grade M25, Fe 500 reinforcement.
