Rcc structures design
Is greater than the depth of critical neutral axis, the concrete attains its maximum stress earlier
Is less than the depth of critical neutral axis, the steel in the tensile zone attains its maximum stress earlier
Is equal to the depth of critical neutral axis; the concrete and steel attain their maximum stresses simultaneously
All the above
Answer is Right!
Answer is Wrong!
2. In a singly reinforced beam A. Compression is borne entirely by concrete B. Steel possesses initial stresses when embedded in concrete C. Plane sections transverse to the centre line of the beam before bending remain plane after bending D. Elastic moduli for concrete and steel have different values within the limits of deformation of the beam
Compression is borne entirely by concrete
Steel possesses initial stresses when embedded in concrete
Plane sections transverse to the centre line of the beam before bending remain plane after bending
Elastic moduli for concrete and steel have different values within the limits of deformation of the beam
