Part-B :
1. Design a Gantry Girder for the following data
Crane capacity- 100kN
Longitudinal Spacing of Columns – 8m
Gantry Girder spacing – 15m
Wheel spacing of Crane – 3.2m
Edge distance – 1m
Weight of Crab Car – 16kN
Weight of Crane Girder – 100kN

2. Design a gantry girder for a yarn packing industry for the following data :
Crane capacity = 250 kN
Weight of crane (excluding crab) = 200 kN
Weight of crab girder = 50 kN
Mini. Hook approach = 1.2m
Wheel base distance = 3.5 m
C/C Spacing of Columns = 16 m
C/C Spacing of gantry rail = 16 m
Self-weight of rail section = 300 N/m
Depth of rail section = 75 mm
Take fy = 250 N/mm2, E = 2 x 105 N/mm2

3. An industrial building is to be provided with a hand operated 50 kN crane facility. The details of the building and the gantry girders are : Longitudinal spacing of columns = 6m, Centre to centre distance of gantry girders = 12m, Wheel spacing = 3m, Edge distance = 1m, Weight of crane girder = 40 kN, Weight of trolley car = 10 kN. Design the gantry girder for bending and shear.

4. Design a RCC corbel to carry a factored load of 500 kN at a distance 200 mm from the face of a 300 x 300 RCC Column. Use M35 concrete and Fe 415 steel.
5. Design a corbel for a 250 mm square column to support a vertical ultimate load of 400 kN with its line of action 170 mm from the face of the column. Assume M20 grade of concrete and Fe 415 steel.

6. What is a Nib and under what circumstances would you use them? Sketch the reinforcement details in Nibs with a) Light loads b) Large loads.
7. A Longitudinal type of a staircase spans a distance of 3.75 m c/c of beams. The flight consists of 15 steps. Take rise = 175 mm, tread is 250 mm. Assuming grade 25 concrete and Fe 415 steel, design the staircase for a live load of 5 kN/m2. Assuming the breadth of the staircase as 1.4 m.

8. An intermediate flight of a staircase is supported only at the edges of landing (support- Perpendicular to the direction of the flight). Height between landings is 1.5m. The Flight has steps consisting of 10 risers (each rise=150mm) and a treads (each tread=250mm). The steps are supported on a waist slab. Landing is 1 m width. Support width is 300 mm each. Designthe waist slab and landing for bending moment alone. Use M20 concrete and Fe 415 steel. Live load on stair is 3.0kN/m2. Width of flight = 1.5 m.

9. A flight of a dog-legged staircase has the following details :
Going =2.25 m
Landing width = 1.25 m

Support width = 300 mm
Choosing appropriate dimensions for rise and tread, and taking the flight to span longitudinally between the supports, design the flight. Assume live load as 3 kN/m2.

10. Design a dog-legged stair for a building in which the vertical distance between the floors is 3.6m. The Stair hall measures 2.4m x 5m (inner dimensions). The live load on the stair is 3000N/m2.Adopt M20 Grade concrete and Fe415Grade Steel.
