Interview Questions for Civil Engineering

Q. 1 What is Punching Shear?
Ans. Punching shear is a type of failure of reinforced concrete slabs subjected to high localized        forces. In flat slab structures this occurs at column support points.

Q. 2 The standard sand now a days used in India is obtained from ? 
Ans. Ennore (madras)

Q.3 The mixture of different ingredients of cement is burnt at temperature of ?
Ans. 1400 degree centigrade

Q.4  For ensuring quality of concrete which aggregates are used?
Ans. Graded aggregates

Q.5  IN Quality Control of Portland Cement, the test essentially done is ? 
Ans. Setting time, Soundness, tensile strength,consistency.

Q.6  Why we are not provide bar in the center of the column and bar?
Ans. Steel are provided for tension. In column max. tesile stresses are generated along the column face.

Q.7 What is soil analysis?
Ans. Soil analysis is the testing of soil to determine the nutritional and elemental composition of soil. It is generally tested for knowing the contents of nitrogen, potassium and phosphorus.

Q.8  State the applications of modulus of elasticity?
Ans. Modulus of elasticity is related to the flexibility of the material. The value of modulus of elasticity is pretty important in case of deflection of different materials used in building construction.

Q.9  What is the difference between sill beam,Tie beam and plinth beam?
Ans. 1  Sill beam:- flexural member
         2  Tie beam:- fully compression member
         3  plinth beam :- loading from bottom (soil mass) is UDL so

        4   main reinforcement is in top of beam.
