  • C.Round head rivet
  • D.Countersunk rivet

Answer: C

The rivet in the figure has a head shaped like a half-sphere, a dome, on a cylindrical shank, and the head sits above the surface of the plate. This is the round head rivet, also called the snap head or button head rivet. A flat head rivet has a flat top, a countersunk rivet has a conical head that sinks flush into the plate, and a tinman's rivet is a small rivet with a thin flat head used in sheet metal work. The answer is Round head rivet, option (C).
