3) Question.
The life period of steel building is
Answer.The life period of a steel building is 50 years.While the exact lifespan can vary depending on factors like construction quality, maintenance, and environmental conditions, a well-built steel building can last for several decades. Many sources indicate a lifespan of 25 to 50 years, with some even suggesting up to 100 years with proper care. Others mention a shorter lifespan for specific types of steel buildings. For example, oil industry structures might have a lifespan of 30 years, while general buildings without RCC framing might last 25 to 30 years. -
4) Question.
Bulb angles are used in
Answer.Bulb angles are used in shipbuilding. They are specifically designed for constructing ship hulls, where they serve as stiffeners for the shell plating.- Corrosion resistance: The rounded bulbous shape resists corrosive buildup and is easier to paint than standard angles.
- Improved strength-to-weight ratio: The bulb shape increases the stiffness of the outstanding leg, which helps reduce the overall weight of the ship without compromising strength.
- Easier fabrication: Fewer connections and simplified welding are required compared to other stiffeners.
