When a uniformly distributed load, shorter than the span of the girder, moves from left to right, then the conditions for maximum bending moment at a section is that
A. The head of the load reaches the section
B. The tail of the load reaches the section
C. The load position should be such that the section divides it equally on both sides
D. The load position should be such that the section divides the load in the same ratio as it divides the span

A. 5 mm less than the minimum clear distance between the main bars
B. 5 mm less than the minimum cover to the reinforcement
C. Smaller of A and B
D. Greater of A and B
The fixed support in a real beam becomes in the conjugate beam a
A. Roller support
B. Hinged support
C. Fixed support
D. Free end
A. The centre of gravity of the load system is midway between the centre of span and wheel load under consi-deration
B. The centre of span is midway between the centre of gravity of the load system and the wheel load under consideration
C. The wheel load under consideration is midway between the centre of span and the centre of gravity of the load system
D. None of the above
Because load is at center so max bending moment occur
