The shape factor of standard rolled beam section varies from

The advantage of prestressed concrete over an equivalent RCC member is

The_________ soil transported by the gravitational forces

Statement (I): The slope of bending moment curve at a point is equal to magnitude of shear force at the same point in a beam.

Statement (II): The change in S.F. between two cross-sections of beam due to distributed loading is equal to area of load intensity diagram between the two section.

A saturated clay stratum of thickness 10 m, bounded on top and bottom by medium coarse sand layers, has a coefficient of consolidation of 0.002 cm²/s. If this stratum is subjected to loading, it is likely that it would undergo 50% of its primary consolidation in

Independent displacement components at each joint of a rigid jointed plane frame are:

In a rectangular element subjected to like principal tensile stresses p₁ and p₂ in two mutually perpendicular directions x and y, the maximum shear stress would occur along the:

For a statically indeterminate pin jointed plane frame, the relation between number of ‘m’ and number of joints ‘j’ is expressed as:-
