4. Design a self-supporting steel chimney of height 60 m,

located at the outskirts of Kurukshetra with diameter of the
cylindrical part as 2 m. The thickness of refractory brick
lining 100 mm with density of 20 kN/m3 is supported by
stack throughout the height. Design of the body of chimney
with base plate is expected.

5. (a) Enlist the advantages of cold rolled sections as

compared to their hot rolled counterparts.
(b) Determine the safe axial load carrying capacity of the
column section shown in Fig. 4. The effective length
of the column is 3 m. The yield strength of steel is
280 MPa.

6. (a) List the types of communication and electricity

transmission towers and explain various types of load
acting on transmission line towers.
(b) Describe the complete procedure for the analysis and
design of foundation for towers.

UNIT–IV

7. Design a purlin, supporting galvanised iron sheeting (150

N/m2 dead load) of an industrial building located in Delhi
having span of 20 m and length of 50 m. The terrain is an
open industrial area. Building is class B building with a clear
height of 8 m at the eaves.

8. Deign a beam column subjected to a factored axial load of
400 kN and a factored bending moment of 60 kNm at the
fixed end. The other end of the beam column is hinged. The
unsupported length of the beam column is 4 m.
