What Is Grouting To increase the load-bearing capacity of the concrete, masonry structure, rock mass, or soil the materials are injecting into the cracks or cavities is known as grouting and the material that is used for grouting is called grout. As a grout to fill the gaps a mixture of cement, sand, water or…
What Is Grade of Concrete By the composition and strength of the concrete, the grades of concrete are defining. For the initial construction, the minimum strength of concrete should have followed at 28 days. The grade of concrete is expressed in the measurement MPa. Where the M is stand for mix and the MPa expressed…
What Is Mortar? Mortar is an aggregate paste made by sand, cement (binding material) & water or by lime, surkhi & water. Sand & surkhi give strength to the mortar. The brawn of mortar diminishes as quantity of sand surges. A blend of Cement: Sand= 1:3 is best. Water required for a far better result…
What Is Plum Concrete? Plum concrete is created mostly by the participation of large and medium rocks of usual size to 300mm or perhaps even greater as filling. It’s being used to improve the evident yielding of concrete for a provided weight of the cement that is to prevent utilizing an excessive quantity of concrete…
Introduction of Rate Analysis for Concrete 1st Step – estimation of labour, materials, equipments & miscellaneous items 2nd Step– check the component of structure to which the RCC rate analysis is needed, Data required for RCC Rate Analysis Step 1: Estimation of Materials Principal Components are: cement, sand, coarse aggregate & steel. Let mix design is M20…
Reinforced Concrete Frame Reinforced concrete frames comprise of flat components (beams) and vertical components (columns) associated by rigid joints. These designs are projected solidly that is, beams and columns are projected in a solitary activity to act as one. RC frames give protection from both gravity and horizontal burdens through bowing in beams and columns….
OPC vs PPC Some Advantages that we get while using OPC in construction sites are. Ordinary Portland cement produces a highly durable and solid sound due to the very low percentage of alkali, chloride, magnesia, and free lime in its composition. In hostile environments there is almost negligible chloride that are present in Ordinary Portland…
What is Veneer? In woodworking, veneer refers to small pieces of wood and sometimes bark, usually less than 3 mm (1/8 inch), usually attached to core panels (usually, wood, particle board or medium-grade fiberboard). producing wide panels such as doors, tops and cabinet panels, floor sections and furniture. They are also used in marriage. Plywood…
What Is Concrete Blocks? Concrete blocks are commonly used in the design of buildings. It is less expensive than the other types of partition walls. Concrete blocks have a relatively decent structure, and the possibility of mistake during development is small. Furthermore, it has sufficient power to be used as a load-bearing wall. Furthermore, the…
Introduction of Contractors Three major parties are committed to each construction design: the holder, the contractor, and the operating company. A construction contractor is consistently reliable for planning and related construction activity and ensuring that the design is finalized on time and within the funding. There are various contractors for each type of work because…
