Q. In a direct shear test, the shear stress and normal stress on a dry sand sample at failure are

0.6 k g / c m^{2}

1 k g / c m^{2}

respectively. The angle of internal friction of the sand will be nearly.

Q. Minimum shear reinforcement in beams is provided in the form of stirrups

Q. A reinforced concrete beam of rectangular cross section of breadth 250 mm and effective depth of 450 mm is subjected to a factored shear force of 150 kN. The grade of concrete, main steel and stirrup steel are M20, Fe415 and Fe250 respectively. Design shear strength of concrete is

0.48 N / m m^{2}

. The spacing of 2-legged 8mm stirrups to be provided is ____ mm. [Give answer in multiple of 5]

Q. Directions: The following items consists of two statements; one labelled as 'Assertion (A)' and the other as 'Reason (R)'. You are to examine these two statements carefully and select the answers to these items using the codes given below:

Codes:
(a) both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A
(b) both A ·and Rare true but R is not a correct explanation of A
(c) A is true but R is false
(d) A is false but R is true

Assertion (A): Minimum shear reinforcement as stirrups must be provided in beams, even if the shear stress

τ_{v}

is less than the shear strength of concrete

τ_{c}

.

Reason (R) : The bending of beams creates a tendency in the particles to slide upon each other with the beam. This tendency is called shear.

Q. In a stressed body, an elementary cube of material is taken at a point with its faces perpendicular to X and Y reference axes. Tensile stresses equal to

15 k N / c m^{2} a n d 9 k N / c m^{2}

are observed on these respective faces. They are also accompanied by shear equal to 4

k N / c m^{2}

. The magnitude of the principal stresses at the point are
