TCE Structural Engineer Interview Questions and Answers

Aptitude+ Technical MCQ test

Q1. BMD and SFD diagram of continuous beam and portal frames.
Ans. 
BMD and SFD diagrams show internal forces in a structure, like bending moment and shear force.
• BMD diagram displays variation of bending moment along the length of a beam or frame.

• SFD diagram shows variation of shear force along the length of a beam or frame.

• In continuous beams, BMD and SFD diagrams help in analyzing internal forces at different supports and sections.

• Portal frames have different loading conditions which...read more

Q4. Plastic method of design
Ans. 
Plastic method of design is a structural engineering approach that considers the redistribution of internal forces to achieve a more efficient design.
• Plastic method allows for redistribution of internal forces beyond the elastic limit of the material.

• It is based on the concept of plastic hinges forming in the structure to dissipate energy.

• Design is based on achieving a collapse mechanism that is ductile and predictable...read more

Q1. What is mean by shear key
Ans. 
Shear key is a device used to transfer shear forces between two components in a structure.
• Shear keys are typically used in construction joints to prevent sliding between adjacent components.

• They are designed to resist horizontal forces and ensure stability.

• Shear keys can be found in structures such as bridges, buildings, and dams.

• Examples include shear keys in bridge expansion joints to prevent movement between bridge

Q2. Different between columns and beams
Ans. 
Columns are vertical structural members that support loads, while beams are horizontal members that transfer loads to columns or walls.
• Columns are vertical and primarily support compressive loads.

• Beams are horizontal and primarily support bending loads.

• Columns are typically taller than they are wide, while beams are typically wider than they are tall.

• Examples: In a building, columns support the weight of the floors abo...read more
