Question 31. Stones are obtained from rocks that are made up of:
  1.    Ores
  2.    Minerals
  3.    Chemical compounds
  4.    Crystals
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> Minerals


Rocks are made up of minerals. They can be monomineralic (single mineral) or polymineralic (more than one mineral).


Question 32. In sedimentation analysis the soil fraction should be of what micron size, so as to be kept in a liquid medium (water).
  1.    75
  2.    83
  3.    57
  4.    70
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> 75


Explanation: According to Indian standards the soil fraction is set as 75 micron to be used in a liquid medium.


Question 33. Which one of the following is not a classification of stones?
  1.    Physical Classification
  2.    Mineralogical Classification
  3.    Chemical Classification
  4.    Practical Classification
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> Mineralogical Classification


The classifications of stones are physical (based on structure), chemical (based on chemical composition), practical (based on usage) and geological (based on the mode of origin). Mineralogical classification is not a means of classifying stones in general. It's called chemical classification.


Question 34. The fitness modulus of the fine aggregate is in the range of
  1.    2.0 to 3.5
  2.    3.5 to 5.0
  3.    5.0 to 7.0
  4.    6.0 to 8.5
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> 2.0 to 3.5


2.0 to 3.5


Question 35. In limit state design of concrete for flexure, the area of stress block is taken as
  1.    0.36 Fck Xu
  2.    0.42 Fck Xu
  3.    0.446 Fck Xu
  4.    0.53 Fck Xu
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> 0.36 Fck Xu


0.36 Fck Xu


Question 36. Cube strength of controlled concrete to be used for pre-tensioned and post-tensioned work respectively should not be less than

  3.    420 Kg/cm^2 and 350 Kg/cm^2
  4.    530 Kg/cm^2 and 420 Kg/cm^2
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> 420 Kg/cm^2 and 530 Kg/cm^2


420 Kg/cm^2 and 530 Kg/cm^2


Question 37. The creep strains are
  1.    caused due to dead loads only
  2.    caused due to live loads only
  3.    caused due to both dead and live load
  4.    independent of loads
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> caused due to dead loads only


caused due to dead loads only


Question 38. Ratio of compressive strength to tensile strength of concrete
  1.    increases with age
  2.    decreases with age
  3.    remains constant
  4.    none of the above
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> increases with age


increases with age
