Identify the FALSE statement from the following, pertaining to the design of concrete structures.
A
The assumption of a linear strain profile in flexure is made use of in working stress design, but not in ultimate limit state design.
B
Torsional reinforcement is not required to be provided at the corners of simply supported rectangular slabs, if the corners are free to lift up.
C
A rectangular slab, whose length exceeds twice its width, always behaves as a two way slab, regardless of the support conditions.

The relevant cross-sectional details of a compound beam comprising a symmetric $${\rm I}$$-section and a channel section (with welded connections), proposed for a steel gantry girder, are given below (all dimensions are in $$mm$$)

$$(a)$$ Determine the depth of the centroidal axis $$\overline y $$ and the second moment of area, $${{\rm I}_{xx}}$$ and $${{\rm I}_{yy\,\,eff}}$$ of the compound section. For computing $${{\rm I}_{yy\,\,eff}}$$ include the full contribution of the channel section, but only the top flange of the $${\rm I}$$-section.

$$(b)$$ Determine the maximum compressive stress that develops at a top corner location on account of a vertical bending moment of $$550.0$$ $$kN$$-$$m,$$ combined with a horizontal bending moment of $$15.0$$ $$kN$$-$$m.$$

Consider the following two statements related to structural steel design, and identify whether they are True or FALSE.

$${\rm I}.\,\,\,\,\,\,$$ The Euler buckling load of a slender steel column depends on the yield strength of steel.
$${\rm II}.\,\,\,\,\,\,$$ In the design of laced column, the maximum spacing of the lacing does not depend on the slenderness of column as a whole.

A
Both statements $${\rm I}$$ and $${\rm II}$$ are TRUE
B
Statement $${\rm I}$$ is TRUE, and Statement $${\rm II}$$ is FALSE
C
Statement $${\rm I}$$ is FALSE, and Statement $${\rm I}$$$${\rm I}$$ is TRUE
D
Both Statements $${\rm I}$$ and $${\rm I}$$$${\rm I}$$ are FALSE
