Test: Estimation & Valuation- 1 - Question 12

The cross-section areas of three sections of an embankment at an interval of 40 m are 10 square metres, 15 square metres and 35 square metres. Calculate the quantity of earthwork for the embankment. Use prismoidal method.

Detailed Solution for Test: Estimation & Valuation- 1 - Question 12

Prismoidal formula is given by:

V =  h/3[a+a+ 4[a+ a+…. an-2] +2[a+ a+…. an-1]

h = 40 m

a= 10 m2

a3 = 35 m2

a2 = 15 m2

V = 1400 m3

Test: Estimation & Valuation- 1 - Question 18

Modular bricks are of nominal size 20 cm × 10 cm × 10 cm and 30% of the volume is lost in mortar between joints. Then what is the required number of modular bricks per cubic meter of brickwork?

Detailed Solution for Test: Estimation & Valuation- 1 - Question 18

Nominal size (Modular brick) = 20 cm × 10 cm × 10 cm

Actual size (Modular brick) = 19 cm × 9 cm × 9 cm

Mortar required for 1 m3 brickwork =

= 0.2305 m3

Volume of Mortar lost b/w joints = 30%

 

Volume (set Mortar) 

Actual volume of brickwork = 1 – 0.29655 = 0.70035 m3

No. of modular bricks

Test: Estimation & Valuation- 1 - Question 19

Which of the following tax generally not applicable to residential building is:

Test: Estimation & Valuation- 1 - Question 20

Plywood is obtained by gluing wooden sheets at a pressure of:

Detailed Solution for Test: Estimation & Valuation- 1 - Question 20

Correct Answer :- a

Explanation : Plywood is obtained by gluing wooden sheets at a pressure of 100 to 150 N/cm^2.

Plywood is formed through the bonding of three or more layers of wood using an adhesive. The layers are very thin and the bonding is done at a temperature of 100 to 130 °C. Each layer has grains on it that are perpendicular to the layer below it. This lessens the extent to which the plywood shrinks and also increases the strength of the final product.
