Roof frame is the base where the actual roof stands, preventing the building from all outside weather inconveniences. The actual protection is not only from the rain and excessive heat that can enter your home, but also the roof makes the building safe to avoid accidents as well. Good decision about its structure should be done […]
This construction video will briefly teach you how to measure the binding material, fine and coarse aggregates determination for Plain Cement Concrete (PCC). Initially, the estimation is made for cement then sand and finally for crushed stone. Plain Cement Concrete (PCC) refers to the construction material that is usually applied as the binding materials. It […]
To determine an accurate building materials cost estimate, the estimator should take into consideration various factors. Different building components like roof, wall, floor etc.; items required like rebar, stud, paint, etc.; materials such as steel, pine, vinyl, etc.; the size and description of the items along with its estimated quantity and unit cost are […]
Quantities of materials for the production of required quantity of concrete of given mix proportions can be calculated by absolute volume method. This method is based on the principle that the volume of fully compacted concrete is equal to the absolute volume of all the materials of concrete, i.e. cement, sand, coarse aggregates and […]
