1. The document contains a 10 question exam on steel structures with questions ranging from designing structural elements like columns, beams, and connections to explaining concepts in steel design. 2. Questions include designing built-up columns, slab bases, single angles in tension, bracket connections, plate girders, and explaining failure modes of bolts and plates or limit states. 3. Design questions provide material properties and loads and ask students to size members and connections using Indian code provisions for bolted connections.
