Instructions to Candidates: Answer ALL questions Missing data may be suitably
assumed
1) Determine the resultant of force system comprising of four (2)

A)
forces shown in the figure.

B) A bracket ABCD is subjected to a system of coplanar forces (4)

as shown in the figure. Determine the magnitude of


resultant and locate it w.r.t A.

C) Determine the reactions at the supports A and B for the (4)

beam loaded as shown in the figure.

2) A block weighing 200 kN is resting on an inclined plane and (3)
A)
is acted upon by force P as shown in the figure. If the
coefficient of friction between the inclined plane and block
is 0.3, calculate force P required to impend the block up
the plane.

B) Obtain the relationship between angle of limiting friction (2)

and angle of repose.


C) Determine the second moment of area for the shaded area (5)

shown in the figure w.r.t given axis X-X.

A composite circular bar of total length 7m is subjected to
axial loads as shown in the figure. Determine the stress
and deformation in portion AB, BC and CD. Also calculate
the total deformation for the designated conditions.
Take E = 210 GPa for sections AB and CD; E = 90 GPa for
section BC.

4) A boiler of 1000 mm internal diameter is subjected to an (3)

A)
internal fluid pressure of 1.5 MPa. Wall thickness of the
boiler is such that the safe maximum tensile stress of 30
MPa is developed. Calculate circumferential, longitudinal
and volumetric strains in the boiler wall. Take E = 210 GPa
and = 0.28.
B) A rectangular bar of cross section (80mm X 60mm) is (5)

200mm long. It is loaded with normal forces as shown in


the figure. Calculate change in length, breadth, thickness
and volume. Take E = 205 GPa and = 0.3.

C) A steel bar 50 mm in diameter and 2 m long is surrounded (2)


by a shell of a cast iron 5 mm thick as shown in the figure.
Compute the load that will compress the combined bar to a
total of 0.8 mm in the length of 2 m, if load resisted by cast
iron is 34.56kN. For steel, E = 200 GPa, and for cast iron, E
= 100 GPa.

5) A composite member made up of an aluminium tube and (5)

A)
copper rod supports a load of 120 kN through a rigid plate.
There is a gap of 0.5 mm between aluminium tube and the
support as shown in the figure. The thickness of aluminium
tube is 3 mm. What are the stresses developed in each of
the materials of the composite bar? Consider Ecopper = 110
GPa and Ealuminium = 69 GPa.

B) A compound bar of length L is made of two bars (aluminium and (3)


brass), each of which has cross section (50 mm X 12 mm). The
bars are fastened together at the ends as shown in the figure.
Ealuminium = 70 GN/m 2 and Ebrass = 100 GN/m 2. If the bars are
initially fastened at 18°C and the temperature of the whole
assembly is then raised to 50°C, determine the stresses
developed in brass and aluminium. Take coefficients of
expansion for brass and aluminium as 18 X 10-6/°C and 22 X 10 -
6 /°C respectively.

C) A tapered flat of uniform thickness 10mm throughout the (2)

length has width varying from 50mm to 300mm. The bar is


placed between two supports as shown in the figure. If the
temperature of the bar is raised by 70°C, calculate the
maximum stress developed in the bar if a gap provided
between the bar and one of the supports is of 1mm. E =
200 GN/m2; = 12X10-6/ °C.
