2.
Pick up the correct statement from the following:
The diameter of a rivet, before driving is taken as the nominal diameter of the rivet
The diameter of the rivet hole is taken as the gross area of the rivet
For rivets of nominal diameters less than 25 mm, the diameter of the rivet hole is taken as the nominal diameter of the rivet plus 1.5 mm
For rivets of nominal diameters exceeding 25 mm, the diameter of the rivet hole is taken as the nominal diameter of the rivet plus 2 mm
All the above.

5.
Pick up the correct statement from the following:
The distance between centres of two adjacent rivets in line with the direction of stress shall not exceed 16 t or 200 mm whichever is less in tension members
The distance between the centres of two adjacent rivets in line with the direction of stress shall not exceed 12 t or 203 mm whichever is less in compression members
The minimum pitch of rivets should not be less than 2.5 times the diameter of the rivet hole
The distance between centres of any two consecutive rivets in a line adjacent and parallel to an edge of an outside plate shall hot exceed 100 mm + 4 t or 200 mm whichever is less both in compression and tension
All the above.
