A simply supported beam is considered as a deep beam if the ratio of effective span to overall depth is less than
Why Working stress Method for design is uneconomical?
What is the maximum projection of bearing stiffeners attached to a steel beam's web thickness, tw, according to IS 800?
How much bond resistance is present in ultimate step
A pretensioned concrete member of section 200 mmx250 mm contains tendons of area 500 mm² at centre of gravity of the section. The prestress in the tendons is 1000 N/mm². Assuming modular ratio as 10, the stress (N/mm²) in concrete is
The lateral ties in a reinforced concrete rectangular column under axial compression are used to
A rectangular concrete beam of width 120 mm and depth 200 mm is prestressed by pre tensioning to a force of 150 kN at an eccentricity of 20 mm. The cross-sectional area of the prestressing steel is 187.5 mm². Take modulus of elasticity of steel and concrete as 2.1 x10 MPa and 3.0 x10 MPa respectively. The percentage loss of stress in the prestressing steel due to elastic deformation of concrete is
Read the following two statements
1. Maximum strain in concrete at the outermost compression fibre is taken to be 0.0035 in bending.
2. The maximum compressive strain in concrete in axial compression is taken as 0.002.
Keeping the provisions of IS 456-2000 on limit state design in mind, which of the following is true?
