In a plate girder design, the rivets connecting the flange angles and the flange plates have to be designed for:

Plain cement concrete is strong in taking :

The type of surveying in which the curvature of the earth is taken into account is called:

A simply supported beam of span ‘L’ carries a concentrated load ‘W’ at mid-span. If the width ‘b’ of the beam is constant and its depth is varying through outthe span, then what would be its mid-span depth when design stress is ‘f’?

A column hinged at both ends has a crippling load P. If the central deflection is made zero by providing suitable support, the crippling load will be:

The thicsotropy of soil is the phenomenon of:

The impact of a sewage outfall into a river can be assessed by monitoring:

In a broad-crested weir, the discharge is maximumif the head of water on the downstream side of weir is ......... the head of water on the upstream side of weir:

A beam of length (l+2a) has supports ‘l’aparts with an overhang ‘a’ on each side. The beam carries a concentrated load ‘W’ at each end. The shear force between the two supports is given by:

A point load of 20 kNacting at the quarter span point of a simply supported beam produces a central deflection of 2 mm. For a central load of 40 kN, the deflection at the quarter span point will be:
