Truss is principally a trident or arc designs frame utilized greatly in roof covering. Queen Post truss is described as an inclined roofing brace utilizing 2 upright tie posts joined within the tie beam and the joists. The woody queen post roof varies from a king-post truss in holding 2 wooden supports or perpendicular part […]

Geometric Design   Geometric design can be defined as follow :- Geometric Design of highways takes care of the dimensions and layout of noticeable features of the highway. It meets the necessities of the driver and the vehicle which range from comfort, effectiveness and security. Perfect geometric design can allow minimization of accidents and their […]

Bricks are one of the main components of a construction, and it has been used by builders and constructors for decades. The modern construction denotes the five types of bricks used for different works. Though the evolutions happen, the basic structure goes through a little change. Types of bricks generally present the materials they are […]

One feature of stonework which usually leads to mess is calculating how much stones or blocks will be needed for a designed wall – you don’t need to end prior to you finish, although you also don’t need a support load of material went disused once you have finished. Creating these computations is quite simple […]

Column Formwork stands for a mould or open box same as container into which fresh concrete is poured and consolidated. As soon as the concrete is arranged, the formwork is detached and a solid mass comes out in the form of the inner face of the formwork. The top of the formwork is kept uncover. […]

In this video you will learn about grades of concrete and it’s ratio. “Mixture proportioning refers to the process of determining the quantities of concrete ingredients to achieve the specified characteristics of concrete.” “The process of relative proportions of cement, sand, coarse aggregate and water, so as to obtain a concrete of desired quality also […]

In this short construction video tutorial, one can learn the concept of distance formula and it’s usage in everyday life. Distance formula is applicable to find out the distance among two points (x1, y1 and x2, y2) in a coordinate plane if coordinate of both points are established. It is based on pythagoras theorem. The […]

DESIGN OF PIER BEAM DATA: Length = 9.5m Breadth = 1.5m Depth = 1.5m = 20 N/ = 415 N/ Cover = 40mm   ANALYSIS: DL of super structure = 2140 kN (including bearings) Self weight of beam = 384.75 kN Design load = DL/2+LL = (2140 +384.75)/2+(0.382700) = 1529.78 kN Maximum moment on pier […]

In construction the most important and appropriate part is reinforced concrete in comparison with all other components that exist in this sector. In this section we are going to provide a newly designed excel sheet that is very much required to perform a design of reinforced concrete staircase. Here are some key benefits of reinforced […]

This is most common method to calculate the material requirements for cement concrete. In this tutorial, you will learn how to calculate cement, sand and aggregate quantity in concrete. M15, M20, M25 Concrete Grades
