Solutions
S1. Ans.(d)
Sol. Bulk density (Υ_b )=22 kN\/m^3
Water content (w)=10%
Dry density (Υ_d )=Υ_b/(1+w)
=22/(1+0.1)
=20.0 kN\/m^3
S2. Ans.(b)
Sol. Slaked lime is obtained when quick lime reacts with water, this reaction is highly exothermic. This process is known as slaking of lime. During slaking process, the volume of lime increases.
CaO+H_2 O→Ca(OH)_2+Heat
S3. Ans.(b)
Sol. The volume of dry concrete is 1.52 times of quantity of quantity of wet concrete.
Hence.
Quantity of dry cement for 1 m³ wet cement concrete = 1 × 1.52 = 1.52 m³.
Quantity of cement in 1:2:4 proportion of cement = 1/7×1.52=0.217 m^3 ≃ 0.22 m³.
S4. Ans.(c)
Sol. Reduced bearing = N 60° W
Length = 100 m
Latitude = 100 cos 60°= 50 m
Departure = – 100 sin 60° = – 86.6 m
S5. Ans.(a)
Sol. Surface tension (σ)=0.0736 N/m
Radios (r)=4cm
Pressure intensity inside soap bubble ⇒ 4σ/r
=(4×0.0736)/(4×10^(-2) )
=7.36 N\/m^2
S6. Ans.(a)
Sol. Loam is a mixture of sand, silt and clay.
S7. Ans.(b)
Sol. Given; E = 200 N/mm², G = ?
μ = 0.25
we know that,
E=2G(1+μ)
200=2G(1+0.25)
100=G(1.25)
G=80 N\/mm^2
S8. Ans.(b)
Sol. Combined correction due to curvature & Refraction (Cc) = 0.0673 d^2
=0.0673×1^2
=0.0673 m.
S9. Ans.(a)
Sol. Noising → It is the outer projection of a tread beyond the face of the riser. It is rounded to give good architectural view.
S10. Ans.(c)
Sol. Aquiclude are geological formation or stratum of impervious material which do not allow of water. Clay is an example of aquiclude.
S11. Ans.(d)
Sol. When %U < 60%
time factor (T_v )=π/4 (%U)^2
T_V=3.14/4 (0.50)^2
▭(T_v=0.19625)
▭(T_v≈0.2)
S12. Ans.(c)
Sol. Bolts are more suitable to carry Axial tension.
