1(i) While designing a reinforced beam for shear, the calculated values of Vn@d and
Vc were found to be 32,850 and 35,475, respectively. The following statement
is true.
(a) No shear reinforcement is required.
(b) Minimum shear reinforcement is required.
(c) Design shear reinforcement above minimum is required.
(d) The information provided is not adequate.
(ii) According to ACI Code, the calculation of critical shear for members with
distributed load is at a distance d from the face of the support. The first shear
reinforcement (stirrup) should also be placed at a distance d from the face of
the support.
(a) True
(b) False
(iii)For a reinforced concrete member with rectangular cross-section, the shear
stress is maximum at the:
(a) Neutral axis of the member
(b) Top of the member
(c) Bottom of the member
(d) Extreme top and bottom of the member
(iv) For the design of a reinforced concrete member in shear, there is no limitation on
the amount of shear provided by shear reinforcement.
Name:
(a) True
(b) False
(v) For a column with concentric loading:
(a) Both concrete and steel are in compression.
(b) Concrete in compression and steel is in tension.
(c) Both concrete and steel are in tension.
(d) The information provided is not adequate.
