QA001 ( Find out the axial load on the member PQ (KN) ______ GATE 2014)

Image
  Solution: For QA001 This is a simple problem but tricky. let's do it  Step 1.  Take a section x-x on the PQ member, and draw the free body diagram Here, Suppose the force in PQ member is V KN, and Take the length of the cantilever is L  Step 2.  Find out the deflection in Point Q As per the principle of superposition,                           Upward deflection = Downward Deflection                 Step 3.  Put the given data  Step 4. hence the force in the member PQ is = 50 KN. Answer A is correct.

Q. Find out the minimum time (in Days) for the completion of the project. Sol:  This is a simple problem,  here, the longest duration path will give you that minimum time for completion of the project, and that path is also called a critical path.  So, critical path duration is the minimum time for project completion. Step 1: find out the possible paths  So, the following paths are possible                                                        A-B-C-E-F-J-K-L                     = Tota Duration = 1+7+30+25+7+7+3+1= 81 Days                                A-B-C-Dummy-G-H-I-K-L   = Tota Duration = 1+7+30+25+7+7+3+1= 81 Days                             A-B-D-G-H-I-K-L                 = Total Duration = 1+7+45+25+7+7+3+1= 96 Days  Step 2: So, here you can see that in path  A-B-D-G-H-I-K-L, the time required to complete the project is maximum, so it is the critical path. Step 3 :     Hence, the minimum time required to complete the project is 96 days.  Answer b is correct.

5 Best website for Civil Engineering student for MCQ practice.

# 5 best websites for civil engineering students for practice MCQ and materials. If you have a clear concept that is your advantage, I will suggest you, keep practising until you succeed in life. Here are some of the websites I personally follow to practice and brush up civil engineering concepts online, and yes that is totally free of cost. you can check it to do the same. # 1. Indiabix.com It is one of the best sites for practising all types of questions. A good no of students follows this site for their preparation. you can write test series on the site free of cost.  If you have any doubt or you want to discuss the question, then just jump into the comment section, where many students already discussed the question, so you can take advantage also.   Check it now: -  https://www.indiabix.com/    Click on the link >>> Home page >>> Scroll down >> Engineering section >>> click on civil engineering.  #2. Examveda.com This is another best site for practi
