Question Paper
1. What are the general considerations of selection of a construction equipment Discuss the advantages of selecting a standard equipment.
2. Give an account of the different ways of financing a construction equipment.
"Right operating personnel are needed to operate any construction equipment." Explain how would you fulfil the truth of the above statement in a large construction site.
What are the different types of lubricants? How does circulating oil differ from gear oil What are the characteristics of wire rope lubricant?
4. What is scheduling What items of a big construction site are required to be scheduled Briefly describe the ways of scheduling these items.
5. What is meant by spare parts inventory How would you plan for repair and maintenance of a construction equipment?
6. What are the objectives of inspection Discuss the four major types of inspection.
7. What is a Log Book What information are recorded in a log book? How does a log book help in satisfactory maintenance of a construction equipment?
Define specific speed of a pump. State how the following parameters of a pump are related to each other:
Discharge vs Speed
Head vs Speed
Power vs Speed
A centrifugal pump operating at 1450 rpm consumes 45 kN of power to discharge 60 litres per sec. of water against a head of 60 m. Find the discharge head and power consumption if the same pump is operated at 1750 rpm.
9. Give a neat sketch showing the assembly of a drop hammer showing the frame of rig, pile, gear with drum and power unit used for a piling work. Derive an expression of efficiency of blow for a drop hammer type pile driving. Discuss how the efficiency of blow is influenced by the weight of pile and that of hammer head.
10. Give a neat sketch showing the Fuel system of a diesel engine. Explain the principles of working of Pressure-Time Fuel injection scheme of a diesel engine.
