The option (c) represents features of Buddhist architecture. In option, D though Vedika, Stupa, Chaitya are all features of Buddhist architecture, Vimana is out of place as it implies the tower in a Dravidian temple.

Correct Option: C

Geodesic domes are based on Icosahedron whose triangular faces are then sub-divided into smaller triangles. An icosahedron has 20 faces, each of which is an equilateral triangle of uniform size.

Geomembranes, predominantly high-density polyethylene (HDPE), have been used as bottom liners in landfills for almost 30 years for its resistance to chemical and corrosive. They minimize the transfer of leachate from the landfill to the environment. Leachate is the liquid that drains or ‘leaches’ from a landfill. It varies widely in composition regarding the age of the landfill and the type of waste that it contains. It usually contains both dissolved and suspended material.

Correct Option: B

Illumination Level of the room = 300 lux = 300 lumen/sq m
Efficacy of the lamps = 60 lumen/watt

Illumination Level of the room = 300 lux = 300 lumen/sq m
Efficacy of the lamps = 60 lumen/watt

Short columns are designed as structural members having a high stiffness with low ductility. During an earthquake, short columns, not adequately designed for such a large force, are often the first members to fail. The damage in these short columns is often in the form of Xshaped cracking – this type of damage of columns is due to buckling/shear failure. Short Column effect caused by partial infills in framed structures may be prevented by adopting adequate separation gaps. These members should be designed so that movement is allowed during an earthquake.

Short columns are stiffer and absorb larger forces during an earthquake
