Tresca or maximum-shear stress criteria assumes that yielding occurs when the maximum shear stress reaches a value of the shear stress in the uniaxial tension test. Assume the principal stress being σ1, σ2, σ3 where σ1 is largest, and σ3 is the smallest principal stresses. Find the value of minimum shear stress to cause yielding, given that yield stress in tension is equal to σo?

A university library budget committee must reduce exactly five of eight areas of expenditure - I, J, K. L, M, N, O and P - in accordance with the following conditions: If both I and O are reduced, P is also reduced. If L is reduced, neither N nor O is reduced. If M is reduced, J is not reduced. Of the three areas J, K and N exactly two are reduced. If both K and N are reduced, which one of the following is a pair of areas neither of which could be reduced?

If nominal shear stress $${\tau _{\text{v}}}$$ exceeds the design shear strength of concrete $${\tau _{\text{c}}}$$, the nominal shear reinforcement as per IS : 456-1978 shall be provided for carrying a shear stress equal to
Consider the following statements in the light of IS : 456 – 2000: 1. There is an upper limit on the nominal shear stress in beams (even with shear reinforcement) due to the possibility of crushing of concrete in diagonal compression. 2. A rectangular concrete slab whose length is equal to its width may not be a two-way slab for certain definable support conditions. Which of the above statements is/are correct?
Which of the following statements are correct regarding Westergard’s concept for temperature stresses? 1. During the day, the top of the pavement slab gets heated under the sunlight when the bottom of the slab becomes hot 2. During summer season as the mean temperature of the slab increases, the concrete pavement expands towards the expansion joints 3. Due to frictional force at the interface, compressive stress is developed at the bottom of the slab as it tends to expand.
Which of the following factors are affecting critical shear stresses? 1. Purity of metals reduces the critical shear stress 2. Surface films greatly enhance the critical shear stress 3. Rise in temperature 4. Rate of deformation and the extent of initial deformation also help in raising the critical shear stress
Consider the following statements: 1. When a soil sample is dried beyond its shrinkage limit, the volume of the soil slowly decrease 2. The plastic limit is always lower than the liquid limit for any type of soil 3. At the liquid limit, the soil behaves like a liquid and possesses no shear strength at all 4. When subjected to drying, the volume of the soil remains unchanged once the water content of the soil goes below its shrinkage limit Which of the above statements are correct?
