SECTION II
4. (a) How are the roads classified in India ?
(b) Draw a typical cross-section of a road crust for any higher type of road, name the various layers and explain the importance of each layer.
(c) Explain the difference between compaction and consolidation of a road embankment.
5. (a) What are the factors that need to be considered while fixing the location of a major bridge ?

SECTION III
7. (a) Compare the Limit State design method with the Working Stress design method of RCC structures. Which method leads to more economical design ?
(b) Enumerate the steps in designing a RCC column subjected to direct load as well as bending moment. (no calculations required)
(c) What is pre-stressed concrete ? Where is its use indicated and preferred ?
8. (a) Derive the expression for three moment theorem.
(b) A beam ABCDE has a fixed support at both ends A and E and is continuous over the intermediate supports B, C and D. The spans are - AB = 3 m, BC = 4 m, CD = 3.5 m and DE = 3 m. The span AB carries a U.D.L. of 150 N per running metre, span BC carries a U.D.L. of 200 N per running metre,
span CD supports a concentrated load of 1000 N at the center of the span and span DE carries a triangular load of intensity 500 N at the end D and 0 N at the other end E. The moment of inertia of various segments of the continuous beam is as follows — AB – I, BC and CD – 1.5 I and DE – I. Using three moment theorem or any other method, find the bending moment and shear force at the joints and sketch the bending moment and shear force diagrams. Also show the deflected shape of the beam. Neglect self weight of the beam segments.
