Welded connection leads to saving in expenditure on material and labour.. Welding permits architects and structural engineer complete freedom of design.. Welded joints are better for fatigue, impact and vibration as compared to bolted joint. 4. Rigidity of joint also leads to reduce deflections. 5. The compactness and rigidity of welded joints permits design assumption to be realised more accurately. 6. It leads to rapid construction, thus saving in time of project. 7. It leads to rigid connection which in turn leads to reduced beam depth and weight. Section - Q.

Web: Web of required depth and thickness is required to keep the flange plates at the requisite distance and to resist shear in the beam. Stiffeners: Stiffeners are provided to safeguard the web against local buckling failure. These stiffeners are provided either in the longitudinal direction called as horizontal stiffeners or in the transverse direction called as vertical stiffeners or in both the directions.

The field and laboratory studies carried out for obtaining the necessary information about the subsoil characteristics including the position of ground water table, are termed as soil investigation or exploration. It is generally carried out in two stages, namely, preliminary and detailed.
Test No : 11 CIVI ENGINEERING 19 reliminary exploration consists of the geological study of the site and the site reconnaissance. uring preliminary investigations, geophysical methods and tests with cone penetrometers and sounding rods can be very useful. etailed investigation follows the preliminary investigation and is normally carried out to determine the nature, sequence and thickness of various subsoil layers, their lateral variation, physical properties and the position of ground water table. oring and detailed sampling are usually undertaken to obtain this information. Various in situ tests also form a part of the detailed investigation programme. ST: The test employs a split spoon sampler which consists of a driving shoe, a split-barrel of circular cross-section which is longitudinally split into two parts and coupling. IS 11 :1981 gives the standard procedure for carrying out test. It is briefly stated below: (a) The borehole is advanced to the required depth and the bottom cleaned. (b) The split-spoon sampler, attached to standard drill rods of required length is lowered into the borehole and rested at the bottom. (c) The split-spoon sampler is driven into the soil for a distance of 45 mm by blows of a drop hammer of 65 kg falling vertically and freely from a height of 75 mm. The number of blows required to penetrate every 15 mm is recorded while driving the sampler. The number of blows required for the last mm of penetration is added together and recorded as the N value at that particular depth of borehole. The number of blows required to effect the first 15 mm of penetration, called the seating drive, is disregarded. (d) The split-spoon sampler is then withdrawn. The soil sample collected inside the split barrel is carefully collected so as to preserve the natural moisture content and transported to the laboratory for tests.
