The total length of a cranked bar through a distance (d) at 45° in case of a beam of effective length L, is A. L + 0.42 d B. L + 2 x 0.42 d C. L – 0.42 d D. L – 2 x 0.4 d 17 / 25 17. What should be the actual area of the length measuring 2.5cm * 4cm (0.025m * 0.04m) in a cadastral map drawn at a scale of 1:500? A. 150m² B. 250m² C. 350m² D. 450m² Explanation: Actual area = actual length * actual breadth = (0.025*500m) * (0.04*500m) = 250m² 18 / 25 18. The quantity of metal required in cubic metre for 3.7m wide road of one km long for one layer compacted thickness 8 cm is… A. 296 B. 444 C. 370 D. 222 Explanation: Quantity of metal (loose) = length * width * thickness = 1000m * 3.7m * 0.08m * 1.50 = 444 m3 [On compacting 12cm thickness, we get 8cm compacted thickness] 19 / 25 19.
