Direction: Cost of a new building is Rs 10,00,000 and its scrap value after 50 years is Rs. 1,00,000. Using straight line method

  1. The book value after 10 years in Rs. would be

    Annual depreciation = 18000, so after 10 years the value will be depreciated by 10 × 18000 = 180000
    Book value = 1000000 – 180000 = 820000

    Correct Option: D

    Annual depreciation = 18000, so after 10 years the value will be depreciated by 10 × 18000 = 180000
    Book value = 1000000 – 180000 = 820000


  1. The annual depreciation of the building in Rs. would be

    In 50 years, value of the building decreases by 900000.

    In one year, depreciation would be
    900000
    = 18000
    50

    Correct Option: C

    In 50 years, value of the building decreases by 900000.

    In one year, depreciation would be
    900000
    = 18000
    50



Direction: A point load of 3kN acts at mid-span of a 4 m long cantilever beam as shown in figure below.

  1. Bending moment at mid-span in kNm is









  1. View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum

    M = Fl = (3 kN) × (2 m) = 6 kN-m

    Correct Option: D

    M = Fl = (3 kN) × (2 m) = 6 kN-m


  1. Shearing force at free end in kN is

    Zero as there is no mass in the free end to produce any shear in the member.

    Correct Option: A

    Zero as there is no mass in the free end to produce any shear in the member.



Direction: The scale of a contour map is 1:10,000 and the contour interval is 5 m. Distance between two given points on the map is 2 cm and the elevation difference between the two given points is 10 m.

  1. The slope between two given points in percentage is

    In 200 m in plan, there is elevation change in 10 m. So, in 100 m in plan, the change in elevation will be 5 m
    A point load of 3kN acts at mid-span of a 4 m long cantilever beam as shown in figure below.

    Correct Option: A

    In 200 m in plan, there is elevation change in 10 m. So, in 100 m in plan, the change in elevation will be 5 m
    A point load of 3kN acts at mid-span of a 4 m long cantilever beam as shown in figure below.
