RITES Site Engineer Interview Questions and Answers

Concrete temperature refers to the temperature of freshly mixed concrete.

• Concrete temperature affects the setting time and strength development of concrete.

• It is important to control the temperature of concrete during mixing, transportation, and placement.

• High temperatures can accelerate the setting time and reduce workability, while low temperatures can slow down setting and strength gain.

• Concrete temperature is typic...read more

Precocious of water structure joint refers to the ability of a joint to withstand water pressure and prevent leakage.

• Water structure joints should be designed and constructed to be watertight.

• Various types of joints can be used in water structures, such as expansion joints, construction joints, and control joints.

• Proper sealing materials and techniques should be employed to ensure the integrity of the joints.

• Regular in...read more

Cube test results are used to determine the compressive strength of concrete at 7 and 28 days.

• Cube test involves casting cubes of concrete and testing them under compression

• Results are reported in terms of compressive strength in MPa or psi

• 7-day results are used to determine early strength and 28-day results are used to determine ultimate strength

• Concrete with a compressive strength of at least 20 MPa is considered sui

Flow calculation on orifice plate

• Determine the differential pressure across the orifice plate

• Calculate the flow rate using the orifice equation

• Consider the fluid properties and orifice plate dimensions

Control systems are used to manage and regulate processes or machines.

• Control systems use sensors to measure inputs and outputs to adjust the system accordingly.

• They can be open-loop or closed-loop systems.

• Examples include thermostats, cruise control in cars, and autopilot in airplanes.

• Control systems can be designed using various techniques such as PID control, fuzzy logic, and neural networks.
