As per IS 800: 2007, the distance between the centres of any two consecutive fasteners in a line adjacent and parallel to an edge of an outside plate shall NOT exceed ______.
DSSSB JE - 2023,
Answer: A
Under IS 800:2007 the distance between the centres of two consecutive fasteners in a line adjacent and parallel to an edge of an outside plate must not exceed 100 mm plus 4t or 200 mm, whichever is less, where t is the thickness of the thinner outside plate. In corrosive surroundings the limit is tighter. The other options give limits that are not those of the code: the expressions with 2t, or the 500 mm and 50 mm starting values, do not occur in it.
