Short Answer Questions: 1.What do you mean by direct stress and bending stress? 2 Draw stress distribution across the section due to Bi axial bending stress and direct stress. 3 Find core diameter of a solid circular section, if diameter is ‘d’ 4 Explain about the term kernel and determine the size of kernel for a rectangular section 200 mm x 300mm 5 Explain the conditions for stability of dam. 6 Find core diameter of a hollow section, if external and internal diameter are ‘D’ and ‘d’. Assignment : 1 A hollow rectangular column of external depth of 1 m and external width 1 m is 10 cm thick.. Calculate the maximum and minimum stress in the section of the column, if vertical load of 200 kN is acting with an eccentricity of 20 cm. 2 A short column of external diameter 40 cm and internal diameter 20 cm carries an eccentric load of 80 kN. Find the greatest eccentricity which the load can have without producing tension on the cr...
