If p₁ and p₂ are effective lateral loadings at the bottom and top exerted by a level earth subjected to a super-load on the vertical face of height h of a retaining wall, the horizontal pressure p per unit length of the wall, is (p₁ - p₂) ⅔h [(p₁ + p₂)/4] h [(p₁ + p₂)/2] h [(p₁ - p₂)/2] h TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
In testing a pile by load test, pile platform is loaded with one and half times the design load and a maximum settlement is noted. The load is gradually removed and the consequent rebound is measured. For a safe pile, the net settlement (i.e. total settlement minus rebound) per tonne of test load should not exceed 20 mm 15 mm 10 mm 25 mm TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
If the length of a combined footing for two columns l meters apart is L and the projection on the left side of the exterior column is x, then the projection y on the right side of the exterior column, in order to have a uniformly distributed load, is (where x̅ is the distance of centre of gravity of column loads). y = L - (l - x̅) y = L/2 - (l - x̅) y = L/2 + (l - x̅) y = L/2 - (l + x̅) TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?

If the maximum dip of a parabolic tendon carrying tension P is h and the effective length of the pre-stressed beam is L, the upward uniform pressure will be 8hl/p² 8hp/l² 8hl/p 8hp/l TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
For a number of columns constructed in a rcjw, the type of foundation provided, is Footing Strip Raft Strap TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
‘P’ is the pre-stressed force applied to tendon of a rectangular pre-stressed beam whose area of cross section is ‘A’ and sectional modulus is ‘Z’. The minimum stress ‘f’ on the beam subjected to a maximum bending moment ‘M’ is f = (P/A) - (M/6Z) f = (A/P) - (M/Z) f = (P/'- (Z/M) f = (P/A) - (M/Z) TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
A pre-stressed rectangular beam which carries two concentrated loads W at L/3 from either end, is provided with a bent tendon with tension P such that central one-third portion of the tendon remains parallel to the longitudinal axis, the maximum dip h is WL/P WL/2P WL/4P WL/3P TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
