Q: For a structural element in steel structure, which of the following is a limit state of strength?
  • A. Durability
  • B. Deflection
  • C. Torsion
  • D. Fire
Correct Answer: Option C - Limit State of Collapse or limit state of strength– • It is used for flexure, compression, shear, torsion, over turning, sliding, buckling, fatigue. Limit State of Serviceability– Satisfactory performance under service load. • Use for deflection, cracking, vibration, leakage, loss of durability etc.
