CEE201 STRENGTH OF MATERIALS
[ET]
Time: 2 ½ Hrs. Max Marks: 70
Note: Attempt questions from all sections as directed. Use of Scientific Calculator is allowed.
Section: A- Attempt all questions. Each question caries 14 marks. [42 Marks]

Q1) (a) A rectangular beam 400mm deep is simply supported over a span of 5 meters. Determine the
Uniformly distributed load per meters which the beam may carry, if the bending stress should
not exceed 110 N/mm2 .Take I=7x106 mm4?
(b) A simply supported beam is subjected to pure bending justify the empirical relation for
deformation with support condition and assumptions.
Q2) (a) A steel bar 8 m long is 28 mm diameter for 2 m of the length, 25 mm diameter for 4 m and 32 mm
diameter for the remaining length. It is subjected to an axial pull of 50 kN. If the modulus of elasticity
of the material of the bar is 2 × 105 N/mm2, calculate the change in length of the bar.
(b) Compare and contrast types of beam with respect to support conditions.
Q3) (a) A member formed by connecting a steel bar 50cm to an Aluminum bar of 60cm is having a
Square cross section of 4cm and 5 cm respectively.. Calculate the magnitude of force P that
will cause the total length of the member to decrease 0.10mm. The values of elastic modulus for
steel and aluminum are 210 kN/mm2 and 70 kN/mm2 respectively.
(b) A rectangular bar of cross sectional area of 1200mm2 is subjected to a tensile load P along the
Horizontal axis. The permissible normal and shear stress on the oblique plane BC (Inclined at 450
to Horizontal) is given as 7N/mm2 and 3.5N/mm2 respectively. Determine the safe load P.
Section: B- Attempt all questions. Each question caries 14 marks. [28 Marks]

(b) Three bars made of copper ,zinc, aluminum are of equal length and have cross section 500,750

and 1000 square mm respectively. They are rigidly connected at their ends. If this compound

member is subjected to a longitudinal pull of 250kN,estimate the proportional of the load carried

on each rod and the induced stresses, Take the value of E for copper=1.3*105N/mm2 for zinc=

1*105 N/mm2 and for aluminum =0.8*105 N/mm2
