LOADING
Question

1)For solid rectangular vertical members, the

Consider the following statments related to axial and eccentric loading in vertical members and core is a rhombus of diamond shape.

(2)For vertical members subjected to eccentric compressive force, for no tension in the section the eccentricity (e) should be less than(Where d = depth of section and k = radius of  gyration)

choose the correct option. 

Statements:

 

A.
 Statement 2 is true and statement 1 is false
B.
Statement 1 is true and statement 2 is false
C.
Both statements are false.
D.
 Both statements are true
Answer ( Option B)

Statement 1 is true and statement 2 is false

Solution

For a rectangular section of width b and depth d:

To ensure that no tensile stress is produced in the section,


Where,

· e = eccentricity of the load

· k = radius of gyration of the section

·  = distance from the centroid to the extreme fibre

For a rectangular section,

 

Substituting,
