The document is an exam paper for an Advanced Design of Steel Structures course. It contains 6 questions divided into two sections. Section I contains questions about structural arrangements of railway bridges, lateral load resisting systems in frames, and types of bridge bearings. Section II contains questions about designing tubular supports to act as formwork for an RCC bridge deck, calculating shape factors for channel sections, explaining plastic analysis theorems, and determining the collapse load for a beam. The exam tests knowledge of steel design codes like IS 800, 801, 875, 1915, 1161 and requires candidates to sketch details and perform structural design and analysis calculations.

SECTION - I

Q1) a) Show with neat lebelled sketches the structural arrangement of deck
type and through type railway plate girder bridge. Draw types of bracing
systems used. [8]
b) Sketch various lateral load resisting systems used in frames. [8]
c) Explain the types of bridge bearings adopted by IRC for railway bridges
show with neat sketch. [9]

Q2) a) A deck type ‘N’ truss bridge has 10 equal panels of 5m each with
depth of truss as 5m. For this bridge D.L, L.L are 30 kN/m & 40 kN/m
respectively. Draw influence line diagrams for the bottom chord, top
chord, inclined member, to carry maximum axial force. Design the
built up section for top chord member. Use impact factor 0.37. [20]
b) What is racker, What is design force for racker, Draw racker member
connection to truss. [5]

Q3) A rectangular box section of light gauge steel has sides 125 × 200 mm. The
wall thickness is 2mm, fillet radius at all corners is 4 mm. The length of
member is 3.5m. [25]
a) Calculate axial compressive load carrying capacity when both ends
pinned.
b) Calculate max. transverse distributed load supported by beam.
P.T.O.

100 mm thick finishing coats. Width of deck slab is 15m. Height of sofit
above G.L is 12m. [25]
a) Design & sketch arrangement for tubular support used as form work.
b) Use I.S. recommendation to suggest detailing of form work.

Q5) a) Find shape factor for channel section with vertical web. 100 × 10 mm,
horizontal flanges 65 × 10 mm. [9]
b) Define & explain upper bound & lower bound theorems in plastic
analysis, Thus explain complete, over complete & partial collapse
condition. [9]
