It states two sections with eight questions in total; five must be attempted, while questions 1 and 5 are compulsory. Page 2 (Section A) introduces descriptive questions. Q1 involves a welded steel rod with a rigid plate supported by a brass pipe, requiring displacement of point A and stresses in steel/brass. Q2 involves a continuous beam ABC with specified spans and loads, asking for MB and reactions RA, RB, RC for l1 = l2 and W1 = W2 = W. The topics center on structural analysis, material properties, displacements, and beam reactions, forming the basis for the associated FAQ and SEO metadata.
