Directoions .'  Each of the next Six (06) items consists of  two  statements,  one  Labeled  as  the  assertion
(A) and  the  other  as  ‘Reason  (R).  You  are  to examine  these  two  statements  carefully and  select
the  answers  to  these  items  using  the  codes  given below :
Codes :
(a)  Both A  and  R are individually  true  and  R  is the correct explanation of A
(b)   Both A and R are individual true but R is not the correct explanation of A
(c)   A is true but R is false                                   
(d)  A is false ,but R is true    


10 Assertion (A) : The rate of hydration is faster in       finer cements,                           
Reason (R) : the surface area of finer cement, is more in case of finer cement.

Ans : a


11.Assertion (A) : Strength of concrete is reduced due, to segregation
Reason  (R)  :  Reducing  the  workability  of concrete mix results in segregation.

Ans :  c

12 Assertion  (A).  : The  lower  the  difference between the minimum strength and the mean strength  of  a  concrete  mix,  the  lower  the cement content to be used.
Reason (R) : The method for controlling the difference between the minimum strength and
the mean strength is quality control.

Ans :  d

13.Assertion (A) : Shearing force may be defined      as the rate of change of loading moment.~
Reason CR) : Shearing force at a section is the algebraic sum of the forces to the  left of the section.

Ans :  b

14.  Assertion (A)  : The provision  of  lateral reinforcement  in  RCC  columns  is  not
mandatory.
Reason (R) : The lateral reinforcement in RCC columns helps in prevention possible bulking    of               longitudinal reinforcement

Ans :  d

15.Assertion   (A)   :   Method   of   moment distribution in classifiable as a force method
Reason (R) : The method consists computing end  moments  due  to  end  rotation  of  the
member.   
Ans :  d
