Stone sinks due to its density while ship floats due to its shape and displacement.
Stone has a higher density than water, causing it to sink.
Ships are designed to displace water, creating an upward force that keeps them afloat.
The shape of the ship's hull also helps to distribute its weight and create buoyancy.
Ships can also adjust their ballast to control their buoyancy.
Archimedes' principle explains why objects float...

I applied via campus placement at Lovely Professional University (LPU) and was interviewed in Aug 2021. There were 3 interview rounds.
Diesel engine works by compressing air in the cylinder, injecting fuel, and igniting the mixture.
Air is compressed in the cylinder by the piston
Fuel is injected into the cylinder at high pressure
The heat generated by the compressed air ignites the fuel
The expanding gases push the piston down, creating power
Diesel engines are more efficient than gasoline engines

BBS of Stirrups is a reinforcement detailing technique used in construction.
BBS stands for Bar Bending Schedule.
Stirrups are used to provide lateral support to vertical reinforcement bars in concrete structures.
BBS of Stirrups involves determining the quantity, shape, and dimensions of stirrups required in a structure.
It helps in ensuring the structural integrity and strength of the concrete elements.
Example: BBS of St...
Concrete strength increases significantly from 7 days to 28 days.
Concrete strength is measured in terms of compressive strength.
At 7 days, concrete typically reaches about 70-80% of its 28-day strength.
Factors like cement type, water-cement ratio, curing conditions, and aggregate properties affect the strength development.
Higher strength concrete is often required for structural applications.
Testing concrete strength a...
Clear covers are used in all items.
Clear covers provide visibility and protection to the items.
They are commonly used in electronic devices, such as smartphones and tablets.
Clear covers are also used in food packaging to showcase the product.
In the automotive industry, clear covers are used for headlights and taillights.
They can be made of materials like glass, plastic, or acrylic.
Development length in compression member is the length of reinforcement required to transfer the stress from the steel to the concrete.
Development length is determined by factors such as the strength of the concrete, the diameter of the reinforcement, and the bond strength between the steel and concrete.
It is important to ensure that the development length is sufficient to prevent premature failure or slippage of the r...
The cutting length of a rectangular stirrup is calculated based on the dimensions of the stirrup and the bending requirements.
The cutting length is determined by adding the lengths of all sides of the stirrup and multiplying by the number of bends.
For example, if the stirrup has sides measuring 10 cm, 15 cm, and 10 cm, and it requires 2 bends, the cutting length would be (10 + 15 + 10) * 2 = 70 cm.
The cutting length is...

The candidate is asked to draw the BMD & SFD of a Simply Supported Beam shown on the screen.
Identify the support conditions of the beam (simply supported in this case)
Determine the loads acting on the beam and their positions
Calculate the reactions at the supports
Draw the Bending Moment Diagram (BMD) and Shear Force Diagram (SFD) based on the calculated values
Label the diagrams with appropriate values and units
Compressive shear stress is zero while tensile shear stress is equal to the shear force divided by the cross-sectional area of the beam.
Compressive shear stress is zero in a singly reinforced beam according to the Limit State Method (LSM).
Tensile shear stress is calculated by dividing the shear force by the cross-sectional area of the beam.
For example, if the shear force acting on the beam is 10 kN and the cross-sectio...

Explanation of pavement types, highway layers, superelevation and camber values, and field tests in highways.
Flexible pavement is made of bituminous materials and can bend under traffic loads, while rigid pavement is made of concrete and cannot bend.
Highway layers include subgrade, subbase, base, and surface layers.
Superelevation is the banking of a road on a curve, while camber is the slope of the road surface.
