***** The ultimate stress for a hollow steel column which carries an axial load of 1.9 MN is 480 N/mm2. If the external diameter of the column is 200 mm, determine the internal diameter. Take the factor of safety as 4. Draw the shear force and bending moment diagrams, indicating the principal values, for an overhanging beam shown in figure. 20kN/m 6 KN A 2m C 2m B 2m

3 (a) (b)

Write the assumption in theory of simple bending. A 100 mm X 200 mm rolled steel joist of I-section has flanges 12 mm thick and web 10 mm thick. Find the safe u.d.l. that this section can carry over a span of 6 m if the permissible skin stress is limited to 16 0 N/mm2. Derive an expression for the maximum shear stream at any point in a circular section of a beam, which is subjected to a shear force F. Show that it is stress. times the average shear

Define and explain the terms: (i) perfect frame (ii) imperfect frame, (iii) deficient frame and (iv) redundant frame. And also write the assumptions made in finding out the forces in a frame. Derive the relation between slope, deflection and radius of curvature. Derive the expression for Hoop stress and longitudinal stress for a thin cylinder subjected to internal pressure. Write short note on Lames equations. Riveted boiler shells.
