Solutions

S1. Ans.(c)
Sol. Segregation→ Separation of coarse aggregates from mortar during transportation is called segregation. Due to segregation voids in concrete increased and strength of concrete decreased.

S2. Ans.(c)
Sol. Piezometer is a device which is used to measure low pressure it can only measure pressure of liquid only and not able to measure for gas. It could not able to measure pressure below ambient I.e., vacuum pressure.

S3. Ans.(c)
Sol. In a thin cylindrical pressure vessel,
Longitudinal stress (σ_l )=pd\/4t
Circumferential (Hoop) stress, (σ_h )=pd\/2t

S4. Ans.(b)
Sol. The influence line diagram is the graphical representation for reaction, shear force and bending moment due to moving load. It can be drawn for beams, arches, trusses etc.

S5. Ans.(d)
Sol. → Minimum % reinforcement in column = 0.8% of gross area
→ Maximum % reinforcement = 4% of gross area (if bars are lapped)
→ 6% of gross area (it bars are not lapped)
→ No. of bars in circular column equal to ‘6’
→ No. of bars in rectangular column equal to ‘4’

S6. Ans.(d)
Sol. Intercepting trap is used to prevent entry of foul sewer gases into the water closet by providing a water seal.
