Question Paper
1. Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given in questions to below. The number of reactions which can be produced at a fixed support in a plane structure are 2
(ii) 3
(iii) 4
6 The material of a structure should be strong
(ii) ductile
(iii) durable
All of the above Which of the following is a three-dimensional element Arch
(ii) Dome
(iii) Beam
Bearing wall For normal static dead loads, which of the structural elements would be subjected to axial thrust Beam
(ii) Arch
(iii) Lintel
All of the above Which of the following is an example of a simply supported beam <img src='./qimages/8427-1e.jpg'> For static gravity loads, the bending moment would, in the case of a cantilever, be zero at the hinged support
(ii) zero at the fixed support
(iii) zero at the free end
(iv) zero somewhere but its location cannot be specified in a general sense Young's modulus of elasticity relates stress and bearing capacity
(ii) ductility
(iii) strength
strain
2.(a) Write any four qualities of a structural material. Explain the importance of anyone of these qualities.
What do you understand by a stable structure Draw a neat sketch of a stable structure and show the various types of reactions at the location of supports due to external loads applied on the structure.
3.(a) A simply supported beam of span is supporting a concentrated load at mid span. Calculate the intensity of a UDL of length which, if applied in place of would produce the same bending moment at the centre of beam span. Draw a neat sketch of an arch with appropriate types of supports.
4. Discuss various characteristics of plane pin jointed trusses of steel.
Discuss how structural behaviour of two beams -one very stiff and the other one flexible -would be different when same external forces are applied on them. Support conditions for both may be taken to be the same.
5. Explain how forces are transferred in an arch with a neat sketch.
Provide sketches of any two simple geometric forms of structures.
6. Draw shear force diagram for a simply supported beam of span loaded with a point load at mid span.
What is meant by a layout of a building structural system Explain.
7. Write short notes on any two of the following topics:
Lintel Consideration of safety in buildings Poisson's ratio
(ii) 3
(iii) 4
