Report Question| 2. | When the steel bars are embedded in concrete, the concrete after setting, adheres to the surface of the bars and thus resist any force that tends to pull or push this rod. The intensity of this adhesive force is called ? | |
|
bond stress
|
||
|
shear stress
|
||
|
compressive stress
|
||
|
none of these
|
||
| 3. | Which of the following statement is correct ? | |
|
Diagonal tension is caused by the combined action of longitudinal tension and the transverse shearing stresses
|
||
|
Shear reinforcement in the form of vertical bars is known as stirrups
|
||
|
According to IS: 456-1978, if the shear stress is less than one-tenth of compressive stress in concrete at extreme fibre, no shear reinforcement is necessary
|
||
|
all of the above
|
||

|
10 mm dia.
|
||
|
12 mm dia,
|
||
| 6. | In post-tensioned pre-stressed concrete beam, the end block zone is the zone between the end of the beam and the section where ? | |
|
no lateral stresses exist
|
||
|
only longitudinal stresses exist
|
||
|
only shear stresses exist
|
||
|
shear stresses are maximum
|
||
| 7. | For an over reinforced (singly reinforced) rectangular reinforced concrete section ? | |
|
the lever arm will be less than that for a balanced section
|
||
|
the maximum stress developed by steel will be equal to the allowable stress in steel
|
||
|
the maximum stress developed by concrete will be equal to allowable stress in concrete
|
||
|
none of the above
|
||
| 8. | The number of stirrups resisting shear force, in a reinforced beam, is given by ? | |
|
Shear force / Spacing of stirrups
|
||
|
Lever arm / Spacing of stirrups
|
||
|
Spacing of stirrups / Lever arm
|
||
|
Spacing of stirrups / Shear force
|
||
| 9. | In a pre-stressed concrete member ? | |
|
high strength concrete should be used
|
||
|
low strength concrete should be used
|
||
|
high strength concrete and low tensile steel should be used
|
||
|
high strength concrete and high tensile steel should be used
|
||
| 10. | In a singly reinforced concrete beam, as the load increases ? | |
|
only concrete will resist tension
|
||
|
only steel bars will resist tension
|
||
|
both concrete and steel will resist tension
|
||
|
both concrete and steel will resist compression
