| 3. | Which of the following statement is correct ? | |
|
The term tie is commonly used for tension members in the roof trusses
|
||
|
When a tension member is subjected to axial tensile force, then the distribution of stress over the cross-section is uniform
|
||
|
A tension member subjected to axial tension is said to be efficient and economical member
|
||
|
all of the above
|
||
| 4. | Which of the following statement is wrong ? | |
|
The rolled steel channel sections are unsymmetrical sections about Y-axis
|
||
|
The rolled steel angle sections are unsymmetrical sections about both X-axis
|
||
|
The rolled steel T-sections are used as beams in the rectangular water tanks
|
||
|
none of the above
|
||
| 5. | A symmetrical channel section is made of a material which is equally strong in tension and compression. It is used as a simply supported beam with its web horizontal to carry vertical loads. It will be ? | |
|
strongest if the web is used as a top face
|
||
|
strongest if the web is used as a bottom face
|
||
|
equally strong in (a) and (b)
|
||
|
not possible
|
||
| 6. | For a beam in equilibrium, the moment of resistance is ? | |
|
one-half the bending moment at the section
|
||
|
equal to the bending moment at the section
|
||
|
twice the bending moment at the section
|
||
|
none of the above
|
||
| 7. | The common section used in lacing, is ? | |
|
rolled steel flat
|
||
|
rolled channel
|

rolled angle
|
||
|
all of these
|
||
| 8. | Which of the following statement is wrong ? | |
|
Columns are supported on column bases
|
||
|
Column bases transmit the column load to the concrete or masonry foundation blocks
|
||

Column load is spread over large area on concrete or masonry foundation blocks
|
||
|
none of the above
|
