**SOT Numerical Problems – Previous Year Insights**
Strength of Materials (SOT) numerical problems in exams cover key topics like stress-strain analysis, shear force and bending moment diagrams, bending and shear stresses, torsion of shafts, and column stability. Previous years’ questions often focus on stress transformations, deflection of beams, and energy methods. Solving these problems requires a clear understanding of fundamental concepts, formula application, and problem-solving techniques. Practicing past numerical problems helps improve speed and accuracy, making it easier to tackle competitive exams. Regular revision of important formulas and solving a variety of problems from previous years can significantly enhance performance in SOT exams.
