DRAWING
PART-A
1. a) Design a Cantilever Retaining wall at the height of earth embankment 20
is 5m and angle of internal friction φ=300,unit weight of soil is γ=18
KN/m3.Take co-efficient of friction factor of soil and
concrete=0.6,then SBC=200 KN/m2.Using M20 and Fe415 grades.
(OR)
b) Design a Stem based on Counterfort retaining wall and the height of 20
earth embankment is 6m and SBC of soil is 180 KN/m 2 and then angle
of internal friction φ=300.Take yield weight of soil is 18 KN/m3. Using
M20and fe415 grades and assume spacing of counterfort is 3m.
2. a) An Interior panel of a flat slab floor is 6m x 6m along column centre 20
lines. Live load on floor is 3kN/m2.Supporting column diameter is 500
mm. Choosing the thickness of the slab (from stiffness criteria) and
appropriate dimensions for column head and drops, calculate the
design moments and shear forces. Use direct design method
(OR)
b) Design an Interior panel of a flat slab for a live load of 5kN/m 2 and a 20
column grid of 6mx6m. Columns are of 600mm diameter. Drops shall
be provided. Show the reinforcement details in the flat slab. Use M20
concrete and Fe415 steel.Adopt limit state method of design.
3. a) A Square water tank 4mx4mx3m in height is supported on ground and 20
open at top. Assuming the base of the wall as hinged, design the
thickness of the wall and reinforcement for the wall, for moment in
vertical direction only.
(OR)
b) Design the underground water tank 4m x 6m x 2.2m with a freeboard 20
of 0.2m. The weight of subsoil is 16kN/m3. Angle of internal friction
of soil is 34o. The subsoil is saturated at ground level. Safe bearing
capacity of soil is 165kN/m2. Use M30 concrete and Fe415 steel.
4. a) Determine the design load on the Purlin of the industrial building near 20
Vishakhapatnam give clause of building general the life of 50 years.
Terrain category II, max dimension 40m, width of building 15m,
height of the elevation level-8m, topography-θ less than 3 0,
permeability medium, span of truss-15m, pitch-1/5, sheeting-AC sheet,
spacing of truss 4m, spacing of purlin 1.35m.
(OR)
b) Design a Steel Roof Truss to suit the following data: 20
Span of truss-15m, type-fan type, roof cover-GC, materials-rolled steel
angles, spacing of the roof truss-4.5m, wind pressure=1.0kN/m2.draw
the elevation of roof truss and details of joints.
5. a) Design a Welded Plate Girder of 30m span to support a Uniformly 20
Distributed Live load of 80kN/m over the span. Assume required data.
(OR)
b) Design a Gantry Girder of 25m Span. Assume required data. 20
