1-Dont try to cram or spend more time here just read it fast and cover syllabus then practice MCQ's cheptor of same topic to check your progress. . |
2-Wrong options are also given but dont concentrate there, Right answer is in bold format. |
Q1 ⇒ The factor of safety for steel is lower than that for concrete [other wrong options] [Discuss in forum] steel and concrete are same steel is higher than that for concrete none of the above |
Q2 ⇒ Assertion A : The load factor for live load is greater than that for dead load. Reason R : The live loads are more uncertain than dead loads. Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A. [other wrong options] [Discuss in forum] Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A. A is true but R is false. A is false but R is true. |
Q3 ⇒ The approximate value of the ratio between direct tensile strength and flexural strength is. 0.5 [other wrong options] [Discuss in forum] 0.33 0.75 1.0 |
Q4 ⇒ For a reinforced concrete section, the shape of shear stress diagram is parabolic above neutral axis and rectangular below neutral axis [other wrong options] [Discuss in forum] wholly parabolic wholly rectangular rectangular above neutral axis and parabolic below neutral axis |
Q5 ⇒ Due to shrinkage stresses, a simply supported beam having reinforcement only at bottom tends to. deflect downward [other wrong options] [Discuss in forum] deflect upward deflect downward or upward none of the above |
Q6 ⇒ The percentage of voids in cement is approximately. 40% [other wrong options] [Discuss in forum] 25% 60% 80% |
Q7 ⇒ Diagonal tension in a beam increases below the neutral axis and decreases above the neutral axis [other wrong options] [Discuss in forum] is maximum at neutral axis decreases below the neutral axis and increases above the neutral axis remains same |
Q8 ⇒ M10 grade of concrete approximates. 1 : 3 : 6 mix [other wrong options] [Discuss in forum] 1 : 1 : 2 mix 1 : 2 : 4 mix 1 : 1.5 : 3 mix |
Q9 ⇒ Normally prestressing wires are arranged in the. lower part of the beam [other wrong options] [Discuss in forum] upper part of the beam centre anywhere |
Q10 ⇒ 1% of voids in a concrete mix would reduce its strength by about. 5% [other wrong options] [Discuss in forum] 10 % 15% 20% |
Q11 ⇒ If a beam fails in bond, then its bond strength can be increased most economi-cally by using thinner bars but more in number [other wrong options] [Discuss in forum] increasing the depth of beam using thicker bars but less in number providing vertical stirrups |

Q14 ⇒ If the permissible stress in steel in tension is 140 N/mm2, then the depth of neutral axis for a singly reinforced rectangular balanced section will be. 0.40 d [other wrong options] [Discuss in forum] 0.35 d 0.45 d dependent on grade of concrete also |
Q15 ⇒ If nominal shear stress tv exceeds the design shear strength of concrete xc, the nominal shear reinforcement as per IS : 456-1978 shall be provided for carrying a shear stress equal to xv - TC [other wrong options] [Discuss in forum] xv xc Tv + Tc |
Q16 ⇒ The increased cohesiveness of concrete, makes it. less liable to segregation [other wrong options] [Discuss in forum] more liable to segregation more liable to bleeding more liable for surface scaling in frosty weather |
