SECTION-B
2. Write a note on two dimensional stress systems with a suitable example.
3. A cantilever PQRS, 7 m long is fixed at P such that PQ = QR = 2 m, and RS = 3 m. It
carries loads of 3 kN, 3 kN and 2 kN at Q, R and S respectively in addition to uniformly
distributed load of 1 kN/m run between P and Q and 2 kN/m run between R and S. Draw
shearing force and bending moment diagrams.
4. A hollow circular bar having outside diameter twice the inside diameter is used as a
beam. From the bending moment diagram of the beam, it is found that the bar is
subjected to a bending moment of 40 kNm. If the allowable bending stress in the beam is
to be limited to 100 MN/m
2
, find the inside diameter of the bar.
5. Derive the torsion formula.
6. A slender pin ended aluminium column 1.8 m long and of circular cross-section is to
have an outside diameter of 50 mm. Calculate the necessary internal diameter to prevent
failure by buckling if the actual load applied is 13.6 kN and the critical load applied is
twice the actual load. Take, E for aluminium as 75 GN/m
2
.

SECTION-C
7. (a) Explain stress strain diagram for brittle materials.
(b) Describe ellipse of stress and its applications.
8. A steel girder of uniform section, 14 metres long is simply supported at its ends. It carries
concentrated loads of 90 kN and 60 kN at two points 3 metres and 4.5 metres from the
two ends respectively. Using Macaulay's method, calculate:
(a) The deflection of the girder at the points under the two loads, and
(b) The maximum deflection. Take, I = 64 ? 10
?4
m
4
, and E = 210 ? 10
6
kN/m
2
.
9. A hollow shaft of diameter ratio 3/8 is required to transmit 600 kW at 110 rpm, the
maximum torque being 20% greater than the mean. The shear stress is not to exceed
63 MN/m
2
and the twist in a length of 3 m not to exceed 1.4 degrees. Calculate the
maximum external diameter satisfying these conditions. Take, modulus of rigidity as
84 GN/m

.
