The internal diameter of a cast iron pipe is 300 mm and its thickness is 10 mm. If the pipe is supported at two points 8 m apart, what is the internal cross-sectional area of the pipe as per IS:1239 (Part 1)?

A) 0.0707 m2
B) 0.0616 m2
C) 0.0524 m2
D) 0.0491 m2

As per IS 1239 (Part 1)-2004 for Pipes, the internal diameter is 300 mm or 0.3 m.

The internal radius r = (Internal diameter/2) = 0.3/2 = 0.15 m

The internal cross-sectional area A = πr2
= π x (0.15)2
= 0.0707 m2

Therefore, option A is the correct answer.

  • If a part is constrained to move and heated, it will develop:

    A) Tensile stressB) Compressive stressC) Shear stressD) No stress Explanation: As per theory of thermal stresses, when a body is restricted from free expansion or contraction, it develops internal stresses when subjected to change in temperature. If a constrained part is heated, it tends to expand. But restriction to movement causes development of compressive stresses…
