SECTION-B
2. Design a counter fort retaining wall, if the height of the wall is 5.5m above G.L. SBC of
soil is 180kN/m
2
. Angle of friction is 30?, unit weight of backfill is 18kN/m
3
. Keep
spacing of counter fort as 3m.
3. Design a flat bottom circular water tank of dia 10m and total height 4m which is to be
supported by ring beam of 7.5m diameter. The ring beam is to be supported by six
columns equally spaced. Use M25 concrete and Fe 415 steel. Design the ring beam and
cylindrical wall.
4. Write a short note on Analysis of stresses in concrete chimney.
5. Design a rectangular slab of size 4mx6m which is simply supported along the edges and
has to carry a service live load of 4kN/m
2
. Assume co-efficient of orthotropy as 0.75. Use
M20 concrete and Fe 415 steel.
6. What are the advantages and disadvantages of flat slab?

SECTION-C
7. State the rules for predicting yield patterns and locating the axes of rotation of slabs with
different plan forms and boundaries. Derive the moment curvature relation of reinforced
concrete section.
8. A reinforced concrete rectangular beam 400mm wide and 525 mm deep is reinforced
with 4 bars of 20mm dia at bottom and 4 bars of 12 mm dia at top. Determine the strength
of the beam section in torsion, if it is also subjected to ultimate bending moment of
50 kN-m and ultimate shear of 20 kN. Assume M20 grade concrete, Fe 415 grade of
steel.
9. Write short notes on the following :
a. Structural behavior of cylindrical shell and folded plate
b. Codal provisions for shells and folded plates.

NOTE : Disclosure of Identity by writing Mobile No. or Making of passing request on any
page of Answer Sheet will lead to UMC against the Student.
