Answer any FIVE FULL questions. Each question carries TEN marks.
# Question CO PO RBTL
1. a) Explain the behaviour of compression member. 2-Marks CO3 PO2 L3
b) Determine the compressive strength of a strut of ISA 150 x 75 x 8mm
connected to a gusset plate when (i) with one bolt (ii) with more than
two bolts (iii) Welded. Assume angle is axially loaded. Take length of the
member is 3m. 8-Marks

A single unequal angle ISA 100 x 75 x 6mm is connected to 10mm thick CO4 PO2
2. L4
gusset plate with six number of 16 mm diameter bolts to transfer tension.
Determine design tensile strength if longer legs are connected to gusset.
Assume pitch and edge distance of 40mm. 10-Marks

Design a compression member using double channel section- Two ISLC 300 CO3 PO2
3. L4
@ 33.1 kg/m face to face to carry a factored load of 1600kN. The length of
column is 5m with one end fixed and one end hinged. Assume M18 bolts and
fcd= 200 N/mm2. Also design single lacing system.
10-Marks
4. A strut consists of a double angle section ISA 70 x 70 x 8mm and is 3.2m CO3 PO2 L3
long. The member is connected to the gusset plate by three number of 20mm
diameter ordinary bolts. Calculate the design compressive strength of the
member when, (i) when the angles are placed on the opposite side of 12mm
gusset thick gusset plate, (ii) when the angles are placed on the same side of
12mm thick gusset plate.
10-Marks
Design the end connection for ISA 100 x 100 x 10mm using a lug angle for its CO4 PO2
5. L4
full design strength. Adopt M20 bolts-Grade C, property class 4.6. Provide
E250 steel. Sketch the connection details. 10-Marks

2-Marks PO2
6. a) Explain possible modes of failure of axially loaded columns. CO3 L3
b) A double angle discontinuous strut ISA 150 x 75 x 10mm, with long leg
back to back is connected to either side of 10mm gusset plate by two
bolts in a row. The length of the strut between points of intersection is 3.5m.
Determine the safe load that the strut can carry. 8-Marks

PO2
7. Design an unequal single angle section to carry a load of 140kN in tension. CO4 L4
Use M20 4.6 grade bolts. The length of the member is 3m.
