SUB:-Design of RCC elements YEAR/SEMESTER:VI/VII
MARK: 40 MARKS DURATION :

2 MARKS
1. What are the different methods used in design of reinforced concrete members?
2. What does the working stress mean?
3. State the assumptions in working stress theory of bending.
4. What is modular ratio?
6 MARKS
1. List the types of loads and its combinations.
2. Explain in detail reinforced, balanced and over-reinforced sections?

10 Marks
1. A singly reinforced concrete with an effective span of 5m has a rectangular section
having width of 300mm and overall depth of 600mm. the beam is reinforced with 3 Fe
415 bars of 10mm at an effective depth of 550mm. the self weight of the beam is
together with a dead load of 4kN/m. calculate the maximum permissible live load on the
beam. Assume M20 grade concrete.
2. The Reinforced concrete beam of rectangular cross section is reinforced to resist the
service moment of 120kNm. Design suitable section of the beam. Assuming M20 grade
concrete.
