OR
- For a structural layout of G+3 storey building as shown in fig. 1 calculate the load coming on to the Beam ABCD for the same data as in Q.2(b) above. Also draw load distribution diagram.
Q.3
- Design a gantry girder without lateral restraint along its span carrying EOT crane of capacity 200 kN & span of gantry girder = 10 m, Span of crane girder =18 m, Wheel spacing =3.5m,. Weight of rail 0.4 kN/m, Weight of crab = 50 kN, Minimum hook approach = 1.2 m. Weight of crane girder = 180 kN. Use Fe 250 steel. Only show the check for shear and moment only for the section.

- Design a welded plate girder for a simply supported bridge deck 20 m in span subjected to a point load of 200 kN at distance 5 m from both ends in addition to the imposed load of 20 kN/m and dead load excluding self weight is 20 kN/m. Provide only end stiffeners and avoid the intermediate transverse stiffener. Use simple post critical method.
Q.4
- A foot over bridge is of span 20 m and pedestrian load of 4 kN/m². The clear distance between two trusses is 3.0 m and truss height is 1.75 m. Assume suitable configuration of truss and design & detail a cross beam and a bottom chord member.
OR
- Design bottom chord member near support only. The shade is situated on flat terrain with sparsely populated buildings. The shed has less than 10% permeability.
