The porosity of a soil sample is 35% and the specific gravity of its particles is 2.7. The dry density of soil sample is:

Following results are obtained from particle size analysis:

Uniformity coefficient = 8

Coefficient of curvature = 2.8

Percentage of soil passing through 75 μ IS sieve = 10%

Percentage of soil passing through 4.75 mm IS sieve = 70%

If liquid limit and plastic limit for the soil are 38% and 34. 2% respectively, the soil can be classified as per IS soil classification system as

A continuous beam ABC is as shown in the figure. End supports are simple (i.e., A and C) and span AB=L BC=L. There is a concentrated load ‘W’ at the centre of the span AB while no load over the span BC.E_j is same for both the spans What is the moment at the continuous support B?

A simple truss ABC is supported at A and B as shown in the figure. If a point load (P) along BC is applied at joint C in horizontal direction, then what will be the vertical deflection at C ?

Assume same area and same material

(i.e., A.E, I same for all members).

In the moment distribution method, the carry over moment, when the far end is fixed, is equal to

The web plate of 2000mm depth is connected to the flange along both longitudinal edges of a welded plate girder. Considering the serviceability criteria for unstiffened plate girder, the minimum thickness of the web plate of Fe410 grade steel required is___________.

In plastic analysis, the shape factor for a rectangular section is
