CONSTRUCTION ENGINEERING TIPS

 CONSTRUCTION ENGINEERING TIPS
.
*ASTM Abbrevation : American Society for Testing Materials
*Grade of Concrete is denoted as Cement: Sand: Aggregate (Ex C-20 Grade : 1:2:3)
*C/C means Center to Center Distance
*DL means Development Length
*Lapping of bars not allowed if the dia of bar is more than 36mm.
*For circular column minimum of 6 longitudinal bars are used and 4 for Rectangular.
*The minimum thickness of slab is 0.125m
*Water pH value less than 6 should not be used for construction purpose.
*The concrete Should not be thrown from a height more than 1.5m.
*The Compressive strength of Bricks is 3.5 N /mm
*The initial setting time shall not be less than 30 minutes and the final setting time of cement is 10hours.
*Dead Load means Self weight of Structure
*Sand having moisture content more than 5% should not be used for Concrete mix.
*DPC means Damp Proof Course. The thickness of DPC should not be less than 2.5cm.
*Cube test is carried out for each 30m usage of concrete.
*RMC : Ready Mix concrete, The concrete is made at factory and transported to the site, This type of concrete is used where there is a lack of space for mixing the concrete and used where a huge amount of concrete is required for construction.
*The height of floor is usually 3m or 10ft (If a person asks you whats the height of 12 storied building?
Ans: 3m x 12floors = 36m)
*A head mason can work 25-30m in a day.
*In construction, the rate analysis for the work of workers is calculated in Man Hours. (Ex: 10 Birr for 1 Man hour)
*Cantilever Beam has One fixed support and the other end is free.
*Simple supported beam has a minimum of two supports.
*PCC (Plain Cement Concrete) this type of concrete is used on members only when the tensile forces are not acting on it.
*The weight of first class clay brick should be 3.85 Kg. and it has a crushing
strength of 10.5MN/m
*Adding more water in the concrete mix to increase setting time leads to form
the Cracks or honeycomb in hardened concrete.
*Vibration in freshly made concrete is done to remove the air bubbles in concrete mix.
*Impermeability of concrete: The concrete which resists the the entry of water or moisture into it.
*The concrete can be lifted to a maximum height of 50m using Concrete
Pumps.
*The curing Period of RCC is 28days .
*The minimum sill level height should be
44 inches.
*The transverse reinforcement provided in columns are called Ties .
*The transverse reinforcement provided in
Beams is called as Stirrups .
*Stirrups in Beams and Ties in Column are provided to handle the shear force and to keep longitudinal bars in position.
*The Prime reason for using steel as reinforcement is due to thermal expansion.
The thermal expansion
coefficient of concrete and steel is (approximately) same having value
*C-25 grade of concrete is generally used in the construction of slab.
*Weight of Bar is calculated using formula D /162 (D = Dia of bar in mm)
*The No. of HCB required for 1 metr square of masonary wall are 13 HCB blocks.
*Specific gravity of Cement is 3.16g/ cm ; Bricks is 2g/cm ; Sand is 2.65g/cm ,
*Standard Size of Brick is 19cm x 9cm x 4 cm or 19cm or 9cm x 9 cm
*Floor area occupied by 50kg of Cement bag is 0.3m and height of 0.18m.
*As per EBCS Maximum dia of bar used in the slab should not exceed 1/8th of the total thickness of the slab.
*The slope or Pitch of the stair should be in between 25 degrees to 40 degrees.
*The rise in stairs is in between 150mm to 200mm.
*Tread in staircase is in between 250mm to 300mm.
*Hook length should not be less than 9D (Dia of Bar)
*Unit weight of PCC is 24KN/m , RCC is 25 KN/m , Steel is 7850Kg/m
*The volume of 50kg cement bag is
1.3CFT.
*Theodolite least count is 20Secs whereas Compass Least count is 30mins .
*TMT bars : TMT means Thermo Mechanically treated bars
*Cement more than 3 months old cannot be used for construction
*The length of each bar from factory is 12m
