GATE (CE) 2022:Design of steel structures

A rolled I-Section is given in figure below. The thickness of flanges and web are 10 mm. If Fe 410 grade plates are used, find the maximum design shear strength (in KN) that the section can take as per IS : 800–2007?

As per IS:800, the maximum value reinforcement in case of weld is

In a plate girder, the web plate is connected to the flange plates by fillet welding. The size of the fillet welds is designed to safely resist

Determine the maximum resultant stress in the fillet weld ABCDA for the Bracket connection as shown in figure. The size of weld is 8 mm.

Two steel plates each of width 120 mm and thickness 8mm are connected with three 20 mm diameter rivets placed in a zig-zag pattern. The pitch of the rivets is 70 mm and gauge is 50 mm. If the allowable tensile stress is 140 MPa, the maximum tensile force that the joint can withstand is

A propped cantilever made of a prismatic steel beam is subjected to a concentrated load P at mid span as shown.

If the magnitude of load P is increased till collapse and the plastic moment carrying capacity of steel beam section is 80 kNm, then reaction R (in kN) using plastic analysis is _____.
