3. (b) Plan growth is a function of soil moisturestress i.e., soil moisture tension andosmotic pressure. When the moisturecotent in the soil is excessive, the poresof soil are completely filled with waterand there is no air available in the rootzone. Because, for satisfactory plangrowth, the presence of air in the rootzone is essential, absence of air retardsthe plan growth.

15. (b) Principal stress is given by

[Where P' is pressure intensity due totail water]
for no tail wate case, 'P 0

Also shear stress,
= 'vP P tan
for no tail water 'P 0
= vP tanHence, we can see that both principaland shear stress decrease because ofpresence of tail water.

Effective angle of friction for coarse grainedsoils have high value of angle of friction
As angle of friction increases as densenessof packing goes on increasing C and aremeasures of shear strength. Higher thevalues, higher the shear strength.

136. (c) A is correct but R is falseThe base period is the period betweenthe first watering and the last watering.While crop period is the period betweenthe time of sowing and the time ofharvesting the crop.
137. (d) A is false and R is trueIn case of lift irrigation, duty is highbecause the commanded area is closethe the well, transmission losses areless.On the other hand, in case of canalirrigation, the transmission losses arehigh and duty is low.
138. (a) A and R both are true and R is correctexplanation of A.Calcium and magnesium are beneficialfor the soil because they keep it in acoagulated clod form. This occursbecause the silicates and aluminates ofcalcium and magnesium are insolublein water and they possess cementingproperties also. After the exchange ofcalcium and magnesium ions by sodiumions of irrigation water, soluble sodiumsilicates are formed which do not havecementing properties. The clods of soilstherefore cruble and fine sillica grainsare released which clog the pores of thesoil, resulting in reduction of permeabilityand destruction of soil structure.
139. (a)
140. (b) Both A & R are correctBed load: Sediment load moves alongthe bed with occasional jumps into thechannel.Suspended load: Sediment load ismaintained in suspension due toturbulence of the flowing water.Sediment load: is the burden ofsediment carried by the flowing water ina canal. It includes both bed load &suspended load.
141. (d) Maximum limit of sulphates as SO3 is400 mg / l as per table 1 clause (5.4) ofIS 456 : 2000
142. (d) The creep coefficient of concrete decreaseswith the age at loading
Age at loading Creep coefficient7 days 2.228 days 1.61 years 1.1
143. (b)
Pipes laid in ordinary or softer grounds areembeded in concrete to with stand the force oftransport sewage and its turbulence.
For pipes not embed in concrete, half of theportion should atleast be in firm soil having thesame shape as that of the pipe.
144. (a)
The sewer pipe lengths are usually laid fromthe lowest point with their socket end facingupstream. In this way the spigot of each pipecan be easily inserted in the socket of alreadylaid pipes. After fitting the socket and spigotinto each other, the proper joining is done.
145. (a)
146. (d) In convective precipitation when air rises
upward in atmosphere, its gets cooledadiabatically to form a cloud.
147. (b) Precipitation occurs when a local portion
of the atmosphere becomes saturatedwith water vapour, so that the watercondenses and precipitates. Forprecipitation to occur there must besuf f icient nuclei present to aidcondensation.
148. (c) High strength concrete is less susceptibleto shrinkage.
149. (a)
150. (b) Due to poisson effect, portion of slab aboveN. A expands under compression andportion below N.A. contracts” under tension.This induces secondary stress in lateraltransverse direction. The transversereinforcement resists these stress alongwith effects of shrinkage and temperature.

Pratt truss is better than Howe truss.
