Q1:

Maximum permissible slenderness ratio of a member normally acting as a tie in a roof truss, is

A 180

B 200

C 250

D 300

E 350

ANS:E - 350

E is correct because a tie member of the roof truss is a tension member and is acted upon various forces like wind load, seismic load etc.

So 350 is right.
