Theory of Structures V

1) The document is an exam for a Theory of Structures course that contains 9 questions across two sections. It provides instructions for solving problems related to designing beams, slabs, columns, footings, and retaining walls. 2) Question 1 asks students to design a staircase slab for a building with given tread dimensions and floor heights. Question 3 asks students to design a doubly reinforced beam with a restricted depth. 3) The document contains problems involving earth pressure calculations, pre-stressed concrete design, combined footing design, load calculations on columns, and isolated pad footing design. Schedules and reinforcement sketches are required for reinforced concrete designs.

SECTION - II (SOLVE ANY THREE)

Q5) An U.C.R Masonry wall is to be provided to retain Earth on its Vertical


Face. Density of Retained Earth = 16kN/m3, Density of Masonary = 25kN/m3
Top Width of Wall = 1.2m, Take Bottom Width of wall = 0.6h Height of
Wall = 4.8m = h, Angle of Repose = 30°, Coefficient of Friction μ = 0.6,
S.B.C of Soil = 225kN/m2. Check the Stability of the wall with respect to
Overturning and Sliding and Calculate Maximum and Minimum Pressure
at Base [12]

Q6) a) Explain the Dis-Advantages of Pre- Stressed Constructions over


conventional R.C.C Construction. [4]
b) A Pre- stressed beam of size 300 x 700 is simple supported on a span
of 11m. It carries an udl of 35 kN/m over its entire span inclusive of its
self-weight. It is pre-stressed by tendons supplying 2200 kN force
which are placed at 125mm below the neutral axis. Calculate the
extreme fiber stresses at end span (support) and at mid span. [8]

Q7) a) Two Columns of size 300 x 300 and 400 x 400 spaced 2.0m apart rest
in a Soil of S.B.C 200kN/m2. They carry loads of 600kN and 1100
kN respectively. Design the combined footing in plan only. Take Length
of the footing as 2.0 times the width. [8]
b) Write a Short Note on Raft Foundation - Need and Advantages [3]
OR
Q8) Find the Load acting on column C1 per floor. Assume Load on B2 to be
38kN/m and Load on B3 to be 20kN/m. Calculate Load on every Floor
considering Parking + 5 Floors. Design Column on First Floor using 3%
steel and take one side as 230. Keep the length the same and change the
width and design Column on Parking Floor. Draw Sketch of reinforcement
of both the columns. [12]
