Orifice std refers to standard orifice sizes used in engineering. Types of taps include flange taps, corner taps, and D and D/2 taps.
Orifice std refers to standard sizes of orifices used in flow measurement
Types of taps include flange taps, corner taps, and D and D/2 taps
Flange taps are used for large pipes, corner taps for small pipes, and D and D/2 taps for general applications
- Q2. What is pressure gauge operating range
- Ans.
Pressure gauge operating range refers to the minimum and maximum pressure values that the gauge can accurately measure.
Pressure gauge operating range is typically specified by the manufacturer.
It is important to ensure that the pressure being measured falls within the gauge's operating range to ensure accurate readings.
For example, a pressure gauge with an operating range of 0-100 psi should not be used to measure pres
- Q3. What is straight length requirements for orifice flow element
- Ans.
Straight length requirements for orifice flow element ensure accurate measurement by allowing flow to stabilize before reaching the element.
Straight length requirements typically range from 10 to 44 pipe diameters upstream and 5 to 22 pipe diameters downstream of the orifice.
These requirements help prevent flow disturbances and ensure accurate measurement of flow rate.
For example, if the pipe diameter is 4 inches, the ...

- Q1. Explain this GD&T symbol.
- Ans.
This GD&T symbol is called concentricity.
Concentricity is a geometric tolerance that controls the central axis of a cylindrical feature relative to a datum axis.
It ensures that the cylindrical feature has a consistent center point within a specified tolerance zone.
The symbol for concentricity is a circle with two parallel lines inside.
It is often used to control the alignment of rotating parts, such as shafts and beari...
- Q2. What welding process would you use here?
- Ans.
The appropriate welding process would depend on the materials being joined and the desired strength and appearance of the weld.
Consider the materials being joined - different processes are suitable for different materials (e.g. MIG for steel, TIG for aluminum)
Consider the desired strength of the weld - some processes offer stronger welds than others (e.g. TIG welding produces high-quality, strong welds)
Consider the app...

- Q2. Explain pushover analysis
- Ans.
Pushover analysis is a nonlinear static analysis method used to evaluate the seismic performance of structures.
Pushover analysis involves applying a series of lateral loads to a structure and observing its response.
It is used to determine the capacity of a structure to resist seismic forces and identify potential failure modes.
The analysis is based on the assumption that the structure will undergo inelastic behavior du...
- Q3. Draw bending Moment & Shear force of standard portal frame
- Ans.
To draw bending moment and shear force of a standard portal frame, one needs to analyze the frame's geometry and loading conditions.
Identify the geometry of the portal frame
Determine the loading conditions on the frame
Calculate the reactions at the supports
Draw the shear force and bending moment diagrams
Label the diagrams with values and units
- Q4. Draw Influence line diagram
- Ans.
An influence line diagram shows the variation of a response function at a specific point due to a unit load moving along the structure.
Influence lines are used to determine the maximum or minimum response of a structure.
They are commonly used in civil engineering for designing bridges and other structures.
The diagram is drawn by considering the structure as a series of beams and calculating the deflection or reaction a...
