o Answer any three questions from each Section.

lJse of l.S. 456 and non-programmable calculator is allowed.

o Draw neat sketch's where required and assume suitable

data with clear notification.
SECTION _

ll. Design an open well type stair for a college building using the following data

Floor to floor height = 3.6 m

No. of flights per floor = 3
Size of steps = 150 mm riser and 300 mm tread
Landings are supported all around by walls and by beams of width 300 mm at

floor levels.
Thickness of wall = 300 m
Use M20 concrete and Fe-500

v-

steel.

ilt. Design a reinforced concrete slab for a room of clear dimension 3.65 m x 5.0 m.
The slab is supported all around on walls of width 300 mm. The slab has to carry
a live load of 4 kN/m2 and floor finish 1 kN/m2. Use M20 concrete and Fe-500
steel. Assume corners are held down. Sketch the details of

reinforcement.

13

lv. Design the stem slab of a counterfort retaining wall, if the height of wall above
the ground level is 5 m. SBC of soil is 200 kN/m2, angle of internal friction is 30'

and unit weight of back fill is 18 kN/m2. Keep spacing of counterfort as 3 m.

Coefficient of friction between soil and concrete is 0.5. Use M20 mix and Fe 500
grade of

steel.

Design a three span continuous rectangular beam of span 6.50 m each to catry a

dead load of 15 kN/m and live load of 9.5 kN/m. The beam is supported by
columns. Use M20 mix and Fe 500 grade of steel. Sketch the reinforcement

details.

Vl. A P.S.C. rectangular beam 400 mm x 600 mm carries a UDL of 35 kN/m with
span 6 m. The beam is applied with a prestressing force of 1000 kN along a

:-

tendon having parabolic profile with eccentricity 100 mm at center and zero at
supports. Calculate the extreme stresses for the mid span section by using
strength concept, stress concept and load balancing

concept.

Vll. A PSC beam 230 mm wide and 450 mm deep has a span of 10 m. The beam is
prestressed by steel wires of area 350 mm2 provided at a uniform eccentricity of
75 mm with an initial prestress of 1250 N/mm2. Determine the percentage loss of

stress in the wire if the beam is post tensioned.
