b)    160 mm
c)    200 mm
d)    300 mm

Ans: b

4.    In a gusseted base, when the end of the column is machined for complete bearing on the base plate, then the axial load is assumed to be transferred to base plate
a)    fully by direct bearing
b)    fully through fastenings
c)    50% by direct bearing and 50% through fastenings
d)    75% by direct bearing and 25% through fastenings

Ans: c
