    SECTION-B (15 x 5 = 75 Marks)

    Section B carries 75 marks. All the questions of Section B are compulsory and carry equal marks.

    Q. No. Marks CO
    Q 1. A double cover triple riveted butt joint is required to connect two 12.25
    mm steel plates. Determine the nominal diameter of rivets, gross
    diameter of rivets, thickness of the cover plates and pitch of the rivets in
    the joint. Determine the efficiency of this joint if permissible stresses in 05 CO1
    tension, shearing and crushing are 150 MPa, 100 MPa and 240 MPa
    respectively. Assume joint to be continuous where rivets are arranged in
    zigzag pattern with same pitch in all rivet rows.

    A hollow steel pipe (E = 190 GPa, d2 = 82 mm, d1 = 70 mm) of length L =


    4.25 m has to be used as a column. This column hangs from a rigid
    surface and is subjected to a temperature increase ΔT = 50 °C. The
    column is fixed at the top and has a small gap at the bottom as shown in
    the figure below. Calculate the minimum clearance required at the
    bottom to avoid buckling of this column. CO1

    Q 2. A thin cylindrical shell of 1 m internal diameter, 3 m length and wall


    thickness of 1.2 cm is filled with a fluid at atmospheric pressure. What
    intensity of pressure will be developed, if 175 cm3 more fluid is pumped
    into it? Also, calculate the circumferential stress and change in diameter 06 CO4
    at that pressure. The modulus of elasticity of shell material is 200 GPa
    and bulk modulus of fluid is 2.1 GPa. Take Poisson’s ratio for the material
    of shell as 0.3.

    For the beam and loading shown in figure below, determine the
    maximum deflection. Take EI = 8.3 x 105 Nm2.

    Q 3. A steel rod 30 mm diameter and 300 mm long is subjected to a tensile
    force P acting axially. The temperature of the rod is then raised through 05 CO1
    80 oC and the total extension measured as 0.35mm. Calculate the value
    of P. Take Es = 200GN/m2 and αs =12 x 10-6 per oC.

    A 3.0 m long steel shaft ABCD consists of three segments (AB, BC, CD) of
    different cross-sections; the segment AB is hollow with external and
    internal diameters of 100 mm and 60 mm respectively; the segments BC
    and CD are solid having diameters 100 mm and 85 mm respectively. The
    shaft is subjected to equal and opposite torques at the ends and the
    angle of twist is the same for each segment. Determine: (a) the length of
    three segments, (b) the torque that can be transmitted by the shaft, and
    (c) the total angle of twist. Take maximum shearing stress in hollow 10 CO1
    segment to be 45 MPa and modulus of rigidity for steel to be 80 GPa. CO2

    Q4. At a point in a stressed body, the principal stresses are 100 MN/m2
    (tensile) and 60 MN/m2 (compressive). Determine the normal stress and
    the shear stress on a plane inclined at 50o counter clockwise to the axis 09
    of minor principal stress. Also, calculate the maximum shear stress at the
    point and draw the Mohr’s stress circle to verify the answers. CO3

    is 240 MPa and 0.3 respectively, check whether the failure will occur or
    not according to (a) Maximum principal strain theory and (b) Maximum 06
    shear strain energy per unit volume theory. If failure does not occur,
    calculate the Factor of Safety.
    Q.5 An overhanging beam roller supported at B and hinged at E is loaded as

    This beam has the cross-section of isosceles triangle with height to base
    ratio as 1.5. Determine the least safe dimensions of the cross-section, if 06

    100 MPa and 50 MPa respectively.
