• (a) Ventilation of a triangular notch is necessary
  
• (b) The same triangular notch cannot measure a wide range of flows accurately
  
• (c) For heavy discharges, a triangular notch gives more accurate results than a rectangular notch.
  
• (d) In a given triangular notch, only one reading is required to be taken for the measurement of discharge

(D)
A triangular notch is preferred to a rectangular notch due to following reasons:
1. The expression for discharge for a right angled V-notch is very simple.
2. For measuring low discharge, a triangular notch gives more accurate results than
a rectangular notch.
3. In case of triangular notch, only one reading, i.e., H is required for the computation
of discharge.
4. Ventilation of triangular notch is not necessary.

The longitudinal joints in cement concrete pavements are constructed with suitable

• (a) tie bars
  
• (b) torsion rods
  
• (c) small spacing
  
• (d) shear rods

In which one of the following systems the optimum road length is calculated for an area based on the concept of obtaining maximum utility per unit length of road?

• (a) Saturation system
  
• (b) Unsaturated system
  
• (c) Minimum utility system
  
• (d) Average utility system

Which one of the following alignments is obtained by development accompanied by tunneling?

• (a) Valley alignment
  
• (b) Cross country alignment
  
• (c) Mountain alignment
  
• (d) Zig-zag alignment

(C)

The alignment of a tunnel constructed as part of a development project would depend on various factors, such as the topography of the area, the geological conditions, and the tunnel's purpose. A zig-zag alignment would not typically be used in tunnel construction, as it would increase construction costs and complexity without providing significant benefits. A "Mountain Alignment" typically refers to a tunnel alignment that follows the contour of a mountain or hill. This type of alignment is often used when a tunnel is needed to bypass a mountainous area or provide access to resources within a mountain. However, it is important to note that the alignment chosen for a tunneling project would depend on a wide range of factors, such as the area's geology, the presence of other infrastructure, and the project's specific needs.

SAFE STOPPING SIGHT DISTANCE AND ECONOMIC DESIGN OF MODERN TRACK

Question-Answer

The design speed for a two-way traffic on a two way lane road is 50 kmph. What is the value of safe stopping sight distance, if co-efficient of friction is 0.37 and reaction time of driver as 2.5 sec?

• (a) 34.8 m
  
• (b) 61.4 m
  
• c) 122.8 m
  
• (d) 193.5 m
  

(B) 61.4 m
SSD = 0.278V.t + V²/254f
SSD = 0.278 × 50 × 2.5 × 50²/(254 × .37)
SSD = 61.4m

Consider the following statements related to economic design of modern track:

1. Axle loading, possible weight reduction of the rolling stock and increase in number of axles should be rationalized.

2. Rail to sleeper fastenings for different type of sleepers at high speeds should have definite standards.

3. The weight of the sleeper and the rail may not be related to each other. Which of the above statements are correct?

• (a) 1 and 2 only
  
• (b) 2 and 3 only
  
• (c) 1 and 3 only
  
• (d) 1, 2 and 3

(A)
A modern track has to be rationalized in view of the following to achieve over-all economy on Indian Railways.

• i. Rail requirements, like quality of steel, design of rail-section and manufacturing process, should be rationalized so that the rail section can sustain the expected stresses due to rolling loads.
  
• ii. Wheel diameter in relation to qualities of rail steel and steel of the wheel tyre should also be rationalized so as to keep Hertzian stresses within the endurance limits of the steel.
  
• iii. Axle loading, possible weight reduction of the rolling stock and increase in number of axles should be rationalized. iv. Rail-to-sleeper fastenings i.e., elastic fastenings for different types of sleepers at high speeds should have definite standards. v. The weight of the sleeper and the rail should be correctly related to each other

• (b) 185π m
• (c) 180π m
• (d) 170π m
  

(A) 190π m

Question-Answer:

In Map versus Aerial photograph, due to symbolic representation the clarity of details is

• (a) less on map than on a photo
  
• (b) more on map than on a photo
  
• (c) less on a photo than on map
  
• (d) more on a photo than on map

Ans. (b)

Differences between Map and Aerial Photograph,
1. The map is an orthographic projection, whereas an aerial photograph is a central projection, i.e. perspective projection.
2. The map has a single constant scale, whereas it varies from point to point depending upon their elevations in an aerial photograph. In the case of the photograph, the terrain area which has higher elevation is closer to the camera and therefore appears larger than the terrains area laying at a lower elevation.
3. The number of details on a map are selective whereas in a aerial photograph there is a large number of details.
4. Due to the symbolic representation, the clarity of details is more on the maps than on photo.
