MCQ (Single Correct Answer)

Identify the FALSE statement from the following, pertaining to the design of concrete structures.

The assumption of a linear strain profile in flexure is made use of in working stress design, but not in ultimate limit state design.

Torsional reinforcement is not required to be provided at the corners of simply supported rectangular slabs, if the corners are free to lift up.

A rectangular slab, whose length exceeds twice its width, always behaves as a two way slab, regardless of the support conditions.

The 'load balancing' concept can be applied to select the appropriate tendon profile in a prestressed concrete beam subjected to a given pattern of loads.

MCQ (Single Correct Answer)

-0.6

Consider the following two statements related to reinforced concrete design, and identify whether they are TRUE/FALSE:

$${\rm I}.$$ Curtailment of bars in the flexural tension zone in beams reduces the shear strength at the cut-off locations
$${\rm II}.$$ When a rectangular column section is subject to biaxially eccentric compression, the neutral axis will be parallel to the resultant axis of bending.

Both statements $${\rm I}$$ and $${\rm II}$$ are TRUE.

Statement $${\rm I}$$ is TRUE, and $${\rm II}$$ is FALSE

Statement $${\rm I}$$ is FALSE, and statement $${\rm II}$$ is TRUE

Both Statements $${\rm I}$$ and $${\rm II}$$ are FALSE
