Disadvantages of glass fiber reinforced gypsum There are too many advances in every field, including the construction field. If we are renovating our building or home from scratch,
Load Bearing Structure Load bearing structure is a structural system where loads of buildings like the weight of building itself and the live loads get transferred to the
Dowel Bars The dowel bars are small steel bars that are used to produce a mechanical connection between slabs without restricting horizontal joint movement and these bars are
Development length is the minimum length of the bar that must be embedded in concrete beyond any section to develop its full strength. In the case of axial
TMT BARS Thermo Mechanically Treated (TMT Bars) is the bars having a soft inner core and tough outer core. Passing the steel wire through a rolling mill stand
PLATE LOAD TEST Plate Load Test is used for selection and design of shallow foundation plate load test is very popular, this test is used to determine the
Is steel stronger than concrete? The most asked question was is steel stronger than concrete? The short answer is No. In some situations, the concrete is more batter
Tolerance in the placing of reinforcement, is very necessary because no work was to be done fully 100 percent accurate. The strength of any structure can be achieved
7 Different Types of steel We can use different types of steel in the construction of structures. The structural designers suggest the use of steel. Some types of
8 Properties of steel bars The following are the desirable properties of the steel bars that we must look at the site in the steel. Tensile strength: 1:
Corrosion occur in concrete Corrosion occur in concrete reinforcement due to the increase in the volume of oxidized compounds as compared to the base metal dissolved in steel
Bar Bending Schedule BBS stands for the bar bending schedule. In this process, the bending of reinforcing steel into different shapes required for RCC constructions was noted. This
Purpose and location of steel in concrete is totally depending on the types of the forces we are facing, we use different reinforcement in different locations. The location
The process of making of reinforcement mesh or cage is known as reinforcement fabrication. At present the reinforcement fabrication includes cutting, decoiling and bending, is primilarity a manual
The reinforcement detailing in drawings is to be used to do the work properly. In the drawings, the clear length (Dimensions) and the location of bars etc, was
