Section A

Q.1 a) What are the methods available for yield line analysis of slats? 05
b) Explain the various types of prestressed concrete pipes. 05

Q.2 Determine the permissible load of rectangular slab 4𝑚 × 6𝑚 and depth as 150mm which is simply supported on all 15
sides and is reinforced with 10mm dia bar @ 150mm in shorter direction and 10mm bars @ 200 mm/c/c in longer
direction. Take effective cover as 25mm and use M20 concrete and Fe415 steel.

Q.3 Design an elevated circular water tank of 500 kilolitre capacity with top dome. The tank is supported on masonry 15
tower. The depth of water in tank is 5m. Take unit mt of water =10KN/m3. Take L.L on dome is 1.0KN/m2.

SECTION-B

Q.4 a) Explain various kinds of joints used in water tanks 05

b) Explain difference between Bunker and silo. 05

Q.5 Design rectangular beam continuous over four column supports of effective span 5m. the beam is subject to an 15
imposed load of 10KN/m and L.L of 15 KN/m . Use M20 concrete and Fe415 steel.

Q.6 Design post tensioned prestressed concrete two way slab 6𝑚 × 9𝑚, with discontinues edges , to support an 15
imposed load of 3KN/m2. Cable of four wires of 5mm diameter carrying an effective force of 100KN are available for
use. Design the spacing’s of cables in two directions and check for safety of the slab against collapse and excessive
deflection of service loads. Assume fcu=40N/mm2, fpu=1600N/mm2, Ec=38KN/mm2.
