A compound column had been fabricated with 4 angles of ISA placed at corners of a square The radius of gyration of the angle is 10 mm. For the fabricated column, the overall slenderness ratio is 40. What is the maximum distance between lacing bar attachments at the fabricated columns?
Question 2
Statement (I): In design of a gantry girder, it is considered that lateral load and longitudinal load do not act simultaneously.
Statement (II): In a gantry girder crane movement and crab movement are not permitted simultaneously.
Question 3
Consider the following statements: In a plate girder 1) Bearing stiffness are designed for bearing forces and they must also be checked for safety against compressive forces. 2) The length of any staggered intermittent fillet weld should not be less than 10 times the thickness of the stiffener. 3) Bearing stiffeners must be provided at the point of maximum bending moment. Which of the above statements are correct?
Question 4
Which of the following assumptions are correct for ideal beam behavior?
1) The compression flange of the beam is restrained from moving laterally.
2) The tension flange of the beam is restrained from moving laterally.
3) Any form of local buckling is prevented.
Question 5

2σ (tensile), σ(tensile). The elastic limit in tension is 200 MPa and μ = 0.3. Value of σ at faiture when computed by maximum strain energy theory.
Question 6
Statement 1: For the bar shown in the given figure torque transmitted by bar AB and BC will be equal in magnitude.
Statement 2: For bars in parallel connection, the angle of twist will be same in all bars.
