Q4. BSD (Bending stress diagram) of I section beam
Ans. 
BSD of I section beam shows the distribution of bending stress along the length of the beam.
• BSD is a graphical representation of bending stress distribution in an I section beam.

• It helps in understanding how the bending stress varies along the length of the beam.

• The diagram typically shows the maximum and minimum bending stress points.

• It is important for structural engineers to analyze the BSD to ensure the beam can wi

Q2. What is the slump for pumped concrete in a construction site? Ans. 80-100mm
Ans. 
The slump for pumped concrete in a construction site is typically 80-100mm.
• Slump refers to the measure of consistency or workability of concrete.

• Pumped concrete is used when concrete needs to be transported through pipes or hoses.

• A slump of 80-100mm is considered suitable for pumped concrete as it allows for easy flow and placement.

• If the slump is too low, the concrete may be difficult to pump, while a high slump may l...read more
