Consider a simply supported beam with a uniformly distributed load having a neutral axis $$(NA)$$ as shown. For points $$P$$ (on the neutral axis) and $$Q$$ (at the bottom of the beam) the state of stress is best represented by which of the following pairs? (elements $$P$$ & $$Q$$ are taken slightly right of mid span).

A $$450$$ $$mm$$ long plain concrete prism is subjected to the concentrated vertical loads as shown in the figure. Cross section of the prism is given as $$150\,\,mm\,\, \times \,\,150\,\,mm.$$ Considering linear stress distribution across the cross-section, the modulus of rupture (expressed in $$MPa$$) is ______________

The beam of an overall depth $$250$$ $$mm$$ (shown below) is used in a building subjected to two different thermal environments. The temperatures at the top and bottom surfaces of the beam are $${36^ \circ }C$$ and $${72^ \circ }C$$ respectively. Considering coefficient of thermal expansion $$\left( \alpha \right)$$ as $$1.50 \times {10^{ - 5}}\,\,$$ per$${}^ \circ C,$$ the vertical deflection of the beam (in $$mm$$) at its mid-span due to temperature gradient is ______________
