Practical Construction Tips

At this point, the debate is evenly poised with the freshers supporting “M.Sand” and the experienced professing “River Sand”. I

There are some things about European cities in general that have contributed to the relative lack of Skyscrapers. Many European

Before we look at the reasons, please have a look at the framed structure where the conventional Rectangular section has been adapted

Yes, but not by much to be appreciable. Generally, concrete is known to shrink upon drying. This shrinkage causes lateral

Concrete always cracks. Well, that’s not quite true in practice, but it’s definitely true in principle. Concrete, when used as

  We can call cracks always as the headache for civil engineer’s but it can be prevented if several measures

What is Ready Mixed Concrete (RMC)? Ready Mixed Concrete is a tailor – made concrete that is manufactured in a

Difference between Beam and Lintel Beam:- According to ‘Frederick S. Merritt & Jonathan T. Ricketts’ (Author of Building Design and

Yes it is possible to design slab without any beam. By using FLAT SLAB , it is a reinforced slab

we can also called this self-loading mobile concrete mixers. These efficient equipment’s need just one operator to drive, load, input dose and mix fresh concrete while moving it

When the ratio is in proportion, say 1:2:4 , 1:3:6, 1:4:8 etc.they are always in vol. When strength is specified

How does the self-loading concrete mixer work? Concept of SLCM: A machine that can Self Load aggregates, Weigh Batch, Mix,

We can easily calculate the BBS of Slab From the drawings of the Structure. We know Main reinforment bars are

Any building made of R.C.C. components have different elements like footings, columns, shear walls, slabs, beams etc. Each element is
