Everything about Civil Engineering
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
BEAM DESIGN 1.DATA L=3000mm Dead load=6KN/m Live Load=8KN/m Finished load=0.75KN/m Wall Support=230Mm Concrete grade=M20, Steel grade=fe415 2.EFFECTIVE SPAN OF BEAM: Effective Span =c/c of support = 3230 mm 3.SIZE OF BEAM: Effective depth=Span/12 =269.16mm , Say 270mm Breadth=1/2d =135mm Clear cover=25mm,Use 16 mm ø D=303 mm, Say 310 mm D=310mm d = 277mm, Say 280mm […]
This is another useful presentation from L & T – Learning Technology. In this construction video, he will teach you how to calculate land area at site. The Solution is Heron’s Formula: If there is a triangle having three sides (a, b and c), and if you know the measurement of the three sides, then […]
Civil site engineers should know the following tips and tricks. Either memorize them or have a list readily available. Minimum thickness of slab is 125mm. Absorption of water should not be over 15 percent. Lapping is unaccepted for the bars that have a diameter of more than 36mm. Longitudinal reinforcement should be not under 0.8% […]
Super Structure Building Construction All exposed corners of columns and beams shall have straight edges and shall be champhered if specified in architectural drawings. Concreting of columns , beams, facias, and thin sections of concrete members shall be carried out using approved plasticiser as per manufacturers specifications. Concrete pouring , testing, removal of formwork and […]
In today’s tutorial section you will master yourself of the process on how to calculate cutting length of stirrup. Well, before proceeding towards the tutorial we should have the basic understanding about the stirrup. Generally the requirement of stirrup lies at areas of high shear such as bearing points and below large point loads. Increasing […]
Standard Room Sizes The size of a room is determined by the function of the room and by the furnishings that go into the room. The list of typical room sizes shown below should be used ONLY as a guide for general planning purposes and to determine overall square footage of a proposed plan. FOYER […]
