UNIT-1
Q1. Define raft foundation. Why raft foundation is provide? (2marks)
Q2. Design a combine rectangular footing for two columns 600x600mm
each and 5m apart and carrying a load of 1800 kN each. The available width
is restricted to 2.40 m. the safe bearing capacity of soil may be taken as
200kN/m2. Use M20 concrete and Fe 415 steel. Use limit state method.
(12marks)
Q3. Two columns 5 m apart between centers carry loads of 1600 kN
and 2400KNrespectively.The sizes of the column are 600mm×600mm and
750mm×750mm .Design a combined footing for the columns. The
projection beyond the center of the column parallel to the length of the
footing are limited to 0.8m and 1.4m respectively .Approximate weight of
the footing may be taken as 320 kN. The safe bearing capacity of the soil is
300 kN/m2 .Use M 20 concrete and Fe 415. (12marks)
UNIT-3

Q1.How you can prevent the shrinkage cracks in tank walls ? (2marks)
Q2 Design a circular tank with flexible base capacity 40,000 liters.
The depth of water is to be 4m including free board of 200 mm. use M20
concrete and Fe 415 steel. (11marks)
Q3. Design a circular tank with domical top for capacity 40,000 liters The
depth of water is to be 4m including free board of 200 mm. the tank is to be
supported on masonary to when take unit weight of water 9800 N/m3.
(11marks)
UNIT-5
Q1. What do you mean by pre-tensioning and post tensioning? (2marks)
Q2. Discuss the losses of prestress. (5.50marks)
Q3. A prestressed concrete beam 400mm×600mm in a section has span of
6m and is subjected to a UDL of 16 KN/m including the self-weight of the
beam. The prestressing tendons are located at the lower third point and
provide an effective prestressing force of 960 KN. Determine the extreme
fiber stresses fiber stresses in concrete at mid span section. (5.50marks)
Q4. Que 10 A beam of 400mm×600mm cross section is prestressed by a
parabolic tendon with a pretressing force of 1920 KN. The tendon has a sag
of 100mm at mid-span as shown fig (a). find the extreme fiber stresses by
load balancing concept, if it is subjected to (a) total udl of 256 KN (b) total
udl of 360 KN. (5.50marks)
