- Shear strain energy theory for the failure of a material at elastic limit, is due to
- The maximum magnitude of shear stress due to shear force F on a rectangular section of area A at the neutral axis, is
- A simply supported rolled steel joist 8 m long carries a uniformly distributed load over it span so that the maximum bending stress is 75 N/mm². If the slope at the ends is 0.005 radian and the value of E = 0.2 × 106 N/mm², the depth of the joist, is
- A short column (30 cm × 20 cm) carries a load P 1 at 4 cm on one side and another load P2at 8 cm on the other side along a principal section parallel to longer dimension. If the extreme intensity on either side is same, the ratio of P1 to P2 will be
- A compound truss may be formed by connecting two simple rigid frames, by
- If a three hinged parabolic arch, (span l, rise h) is carrying a uniformly distributed load w/unit length over the entire span,
- constant, depth of a cantilever of length of uniform strength loaded with Keeping breadth uniformly distributed load varies from zero at the free end and
- A cantilever of length ‘L’ is subjected to a bending moment ‘M’ at its free end. If EI is the flexural rigidity of the section, the deflection of the free end, is
- A cantilever of length 2 cm and depth 10 cm tapers in plan from a width 24 cm to zero at its free end. If the modulus of elasticity of the material is 0.2 × 106 N/mm², the deflection of the free end, is
- In the truss, the force in the member AC is
