Site Plan Requirements

A site plan (also known as a plot plan) is a diagram or process to show the proposed improvements on an existing property. A site plan is important, as it provides information regarding the landscape features of a given plot of land. Zoning is done or can be understood with the help of a site plan.

Which of the following statements is true for design properties of non pre-stressed steel reinforcement as per NSCP 2015? *Can choose more than one. A. For non-prestressed bars and wires, fy shall be Es times steel strain for any value of strain. B. For tensile steel strains greater than that corresponding to fy, stress shall be Es times steel strain. C. For non-prestressed bars and wires, the stress beyond fy shall be Es times steel strain. D. For tensile steel strains greater than that corresponding to fy, stress shall be considered independent of strain and equal to fy.
Select the correct statement from the following: An "under-reinforced" beam condition results in a brittle failure mode. An "over-reinforced" concrete beam is acceptable because it's stronger than required and is conservative. An "over-reinforced" beam corresponds to a condition where the beam maximum bending strength is controlled by steel yielding. The ACI code provisions include a maximum limit on the amount of beam reinforcing steel to ensure that an "under-reinforced" condition exists.
