Everything about Civil Engineering
IMPORTANT NOTES FOR CIVIL ENGINEERS. Minimum 1 inch spacing between bars in beams according to ACI code. Curtailment at ends in case of simply supported beams L/8 from face of support. For continuous beams curtailment at L/3. Maximum spacing for stirrups is 12 inch. If reinforcement is provided in two layers then 1 inch distance […]

Material reduce the cost of cement concrete slab What is Bubble Deck ? It is a revolutionary flooring system, which has proved to be highly successful throughout Europe since its development began ten years ago. BubbleDeck comprises a hollow, flat slab that spans in two directions, in which plastic balls are incorporated to replace, and […]
To become a successful civil engineer, the following knowledge is essential :- Building materials testing processes Concrete Test : Slump test, compression test, split tensile test, soundness Soil Test : Core cutter test, compaction test, sand replacement test, triaxial test, consolidation test etc. Bitumen Test : Ductility test, softening point test, gravity test, penetration test […]
The load of structure is coming on the soil. So we need to know the bearing capacity of the soil. Bearing capacity of soil is used to indicate the maximum load per unit area which is determined by a) Method of loading or b) Method of dropping weight. Dividing the ultimate soil bearing capacity by […]
Watch the video tutorial to learn about reinforcement lapping zone in column. It teaches you how to place lap in exact position in column, adhering to IS code 13920. When two pieces of rebar are overlapping, a lap is needed to make a constant reinforced line of rebar. The lap length varies depending on the […]
If 6 + 4 = 210, and 9 + 2 = 711, what is the rule to combine numbers? This “intelligence test” has been shared more than 3 million times on Facebook. On Twitter people claim solving it means you have an IQ of more than 150 (genius level). In this video I ask a […]
What is 6÷2(1+2) = ? This problem went viral and generated millions of comments on Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and social media sites. I explain how to get the correct answer by using the modern interpretation of the order of operations. I also explain how you would get a different answer under historical usage of the […]
This problem was shared on Facebook with the claim that only one in a thousand could figure it out. It went viral and generated over 3 million comments. Here is the problem. If 1 + 4 = 5, 2 + 5 = 12, 3 + 6 = 21, what is 8 + 11 = ? […]
Normally beams stand for horizontal structural members which transmit loads horizontally along their length to the supports where the loads are generally transformed into vertical forces. The objective of beams is to withstand vertical loads, shear forces and bending moments. Depending on the types of supports, the following types of beams are available:- 1. Simply Supported […]
