BEST STUDY MATERIAL FOR GATE CIVIL ENGINEERING

When it comes to preparation for the GATE exam 2022, the prerequisite and the must have part is a good study material. If you are a person self-preparing for GATE exam after your B Tech, you may have a dozen text books of your UG course.

Referring standard textbooks is always good in preparation but this should be done only for some doubt clearance or when you want to know more about a topic. This is because textbooks are deep and vast and not filtered as per the GATE exam requirement. This can also fetch you a good score in GATE, but the time taken for that would be twice or thrice the time you need to spend with a good and tailor made study material.

Thus, a complete and an exam focused material is a high-priority in the successful preparation of GATE exam.

They are Simple stresses and strains, Complex stresses and strains, Shear force and bending moment, Theory of simple bending, Centroid and moment of inertia, Shear stress distribution, Torsion, Slopes and deflections, Columns and struts, Shear centre, Strain energy, Theory of failures and Springs.

 

  1. CONCRETE STRUCTURES

The topics we study for UG degree in this subject is plenty when compared to that required for GATE. Selective study is much important in this subject as well. The weightage for this subject is 3 to 5 marks. It has been divided into 15 Chapters namely Materials and testing, Comparison of WSM, ULM and LSM, Design of singly reinforced rectangular sections in LSM, Design of doubly reinforced beams in LSM, Design of flanged sections in LSM, Limit state of collapse – Shear, Limit state of collapse- Torsion, Bond, Slabs, Limit state of collapse- Compression, Footings, Limit state of serviceability: Deflection and cracking, Fundamentals of pre-stressed concrete, Analysis of pre-stressed concrete members and Losses in pre-stressed concrete.

 

  1. STEEL STRUCTURES

Here you have to be very much choosy on what you have to prepare. The contents in this book have been judiciously filtered in that way.  The subject carries a weightage of 2 to 3 marks. It has been divided into the following 11 Chapters: Material and specification, Riveted and bolted connections, Welded connections, Design of tension members, Column bases, caps and column splices, Design of compression members, Design of beams, Design of plate girders, Design of gantry girders and Roof trusses.

 

  1. STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS

This subject carries a weightage of 5 to 7 marks. The whole subject has been sorted into 10 Chapters namely Static and kinematic indeterminacy, Method of structural analysis, Analysis of trusses, Energy theorems, Moment distribution method, Slope deflection method, Plastic theory, Moving loads and influence lines, Arches, and Matrix method.

 

  1. CONSTRUCTION MATERIAL AND MANAGEMENT

This subject deals with the materials of construction and also the techniques used in construction management. It has a weightage of 2 to 3 marks. The subject has been classified into 6 Chapters. They are: Structural steel, Concrete, Bricks and mortar, Timber, Bitumen and Construction management.

 

  1. GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEERING

Geotechnical engineering which carries the highest weightage occupies the first place in the order of importance for preparation of GATE exams. It has to be prepared without skipping any topics. This subject has a weightage of 13 to 14 marks. The subject has been sorted into 18 Chapters namely Origin of soil, Clay mineralogy and soil structure, Basic definitions and properties of soil, Index properties of soil – Particle size analysis, Index properties of soil – Consistency limit, Soil Classification, Permeability of soil, Effective stress, Seepage analysis, Stress distribution in soil, Consolidation, Compaction, Shear strength, Earth pressure theories, Stability of slopes, Shallow foundation, Deep foundations and Sub-surface investigation.
