When do we use the Hook development length??? and is it applicable for the tension steel in both of +ve and -ve moments? or only negative??
pls explain it for me as much clear as possible
*write a typed answer pls

Q4: Experiments were conducted to determine the safe
buckling load on columns with T-section
100 mm × 100 mm × 10 mm with different support conditions. When
both ends of the columns
are fixed, safe crippling load carried by the column was found to
be 60 × 103 N. Suggest the
length for other three columns for the same crippling load when the
support conditions are
changed to one end fixed but the other end free, both the ends
hinged and one end fixed but the
other end hinged. The cross section of the column is kept constant
in all cases, and E = 200 GPa.
Take factor of safety = 4.
Instead of T section, a hollow column of same material having
length 5 m and external diameter of
55 mm when subjected to a compressive load of 60 kN, there was a
shortening in the length of the
column by 0.120 cm. Suggest a suitable value for the thickness of
the column to withstand the safe
crippling load when one end of the column is fixed and other end is
free?

Q1: Analysis of forces and moments were done for a
simply supported beam having span 10 m
carrying a uniformly distributed load of ‘w’ kN/m over a length of
5 m from the left end support
and point loads ‘2w’ kN, ‘3w’ kN and ‘1.5w’ kN at distances of 6 m,
7 m and 8 m respectively from
the left end support. It was observed that the maximum bending
moment acting on the beam is
equal to 192 kNm. Suggest a suitable value for ‘w’ based on
this loading condition. How it will
change the reactions at the supports? What happens to the shear
force and bending moment
values at the supports and at the points where loads acting? By
plotting the bending moment and
shear force diagram for the beam, briefly conclude the relationship
between the values for shear
force and bending moment.

Q5: Experiments were conducted to determine the deflection on a T- section steel girder 200 mm x 200 mm x 10 mm and a rectangular beam made up of concrete having breadth 15 cm and depth equal to 25 cm. T- section girder is used as a simply supported beam for a span of 4 meters but rectangular beam is used as a cantilever beam for span of 6 meters. Both beams are subjected to a uniformly distributed load ‘w’ N/mm run over the entire span. Suggest a suitable value for ‘w’ so that the maximum deflection in the simply supported beam does not exceed 17.65 mm. Compare the maximum value of slope and deflection for both steel and concrete beams. Modulus of Elasticity, E for steel = 2 x 107 N/cm2, E for concrete = 2.5 x 107 kg/cm2. What will be your suggestions to minimize the deflection on both steel and concrete beams based on the results obtained for the slope and the deflection of beams

An unsymmetrical I section prestressed concrete beam of top flange (350 X 40 mm) in size, bottom flange of (200 X 40 mm), 30mm thickness of web and overall depth of 400 mm is prestressed with 19 numbers straight steel wires of 7 mm diameter located at a distance of 15 mm from the bottom of the soffit and 9 numbers of straight steel wires of 6 mm diameter located at a distance of 15 mm from the top of the beam. The wires were initially tensioned on the prestressing bed with an initial prestress of 1.2 GPa. The length of the beam is 10 m. Calculate the total percentage loss of stress in the wires at top and bottom. Assume the beam is post tensioned beam and all the wires stressed simultaneously by using the following data: [9] Relaxation of steel stress= 4.5% of initial stress -6 Shrinkage strain in concrete for post tensioning = 200 x 10 Creep Coefficient ɸ=1.6 Friction coefficient for wave effect=0.0015 per metre Slip at anchorage= 1.5 mm Modulus of elasticity for steel = 210 GPa Modulus of elasticity for concrete= 35 GPa
