    B

    1)

    Explain the

    differenr

    rypes

    ofioints

    (APR/MAY 2003)

    i) Rigid

    Joints:

    .

    Can

    take

    tensile, compressive, shear

    and

    bending

    moments too.

    .

    Relative

    rotation

    and

    relative

    displacement

    are

    impossible.

    .

    Generally

    used

    for

    the

    iunction

    ofcolumns

    to footings.

    .

    Used forjoining ofindividual

    members to

    each

    other.

    Limitationsi

    .

    Requires

    considerable man

    power

    and

    hence minirium

    applications.

    ii)

    Hinge

    like

    Ioints:

    .

    Can transmit forces

    passing

    through

    hinges

    itself, and also allow

    certain

    motion

    and

    rolalions.

    .

    ,oints

    osed

    in

    precast

    members

    are

    usually

    hinge

    like.

    .

    Requires

    less working time

    than

    that ofthe

    rigid

    joints.

    .

    Execution is

    simpler.

    iii)

    Shod Joints:

    .

    Used

    in industrial construction

    and used

    for

    longspan

    only.

    .

    Chiefly used

    in bridge

    construction

    for long

    span

    bridges.

    iv)Dry

    Joints:

    .

    A

    joint

    accomplished by

    simple

    placing

    oftwo

    members on

    each

    other and

    then

    fastening

    them

    is

    called

    dry

    joint.

    .

    The

    structure becomes

    immediately loose

    bea ng-

    v)

    Wetloints:

    .

    The

    joint

    rcquiring

    not

    only

    a casting

    cement

    morlar, but

    also

    a

    subscquent

    concreting

    is

    called

    wet

    joint.

    Eg:

    when a

    rigid

    jointis

    formed,

    generallythe

    Iengthening

    ofsteel

    bars is byjoining

    the

    members

    by overlapping

    [or)

    welding

    them

    wh

    jle

    the

    discontinuity

    is avoided

    by

    a

    skilful subsequent

    concreting is called wet

    joint.

    .

    Adcqualc

    for

    the bcaring

    ofgreater force.

    .

    Struchrrc

    monolithic

    character.
