Question 1

What is the maximum slenderness ratio possible for a tension member which can be subjected to reversal of stress due to the action of the wind and earthquake forces?

Question 2

Shear lag effect is

(i) Prominent in which all the elements of a member are not directly connected.

(ii) Can be reduced by decreasing the area of connected leg.

(iii) non uniform stress distribution that occurs in tension member not connected

(iv) Can be reduced by decreasing the length of the outstanding leg.

Which of the above statements are correct?

Question 3

The tensile strength of the plate (in kN) 120 mm X 14 mm with the holes of 16 mm diameter bolts as shown in figure based on rupture of critical section criteria based on limit state design(LSD) of IS 800:2007 is (Consider Fe 500 steel section)

Question 4

The angle section ISA 120×100×10 shown in figure. The bolts used are of diameter 20 mm. The block shear strength of the section is 257.85 kN.

Type of failure occurred in the section is?

Question 5

A single angle section ISA 100 × 75, 8 mm is used to resist tensile load with connection as shown below. Use 20 mm shop bolts of grade 4.6 for the connection. The ultimate strength of steel if 410 MPa. The block shear strength of the connection is ______ kN.

Question 6

For the plate shown in the figure given below, determine the strength in net section rupture (in kN) as per LSM. Take ultimate strength of plate to be 410 MPa.
