Dog Legged Staircase helps us to calculate the value and also helps us to get the complete design and staircase drawing. Dog-Legged Staircase Design (IS 456:2000) Dog-Legged Staircase Design (IS 456:2000) Input Parameters Height of Floor (m): Length of Stairwell (m): Width of Stair (m): Riser Height (mm): Tread Width (mm): Live Load (kN/m²): Floor … Read more
Plinth Beam and Tie Beam : Difference Between Plinth Beam and Tie Beam Here you will find the difference between Plinth Beam and Tie Beam. First of all we will know what is plinth beam and tie beam. Then we will know the purpose of using the plinth beam and using the Tie beam. … Read more
Truss A truss is an assembly of beams or other elements that creates a rigid structure. Trusses are used almost everywhere, they are used in Tower, crane, bridges, etc. They are used to make the structure strong and efficient in cost effective way. There are various types of truss present but here you will … Read more
Types of Beam Types of beams Beam Beam is the horizontal structural member in a building used for bearing loads. It is typically used for resisting vertical loads, shear forces and bending moments. The structural member which resists the forces laterally or transversely applied to the axis is also called beam. There are … Read more
Useful method of increasing the bearing capacity of the soil increase bearing capacity of soil is bearing capacity of the soil? bearing capacity of soil Bearing capacity of the soil is the capacity of the soil to support the loads applied to the ground. The bearing capacity of the soil is the maximum average … Read more
Types of Column Failure column failures Column column Columns are the most important parts of a structure. They transfer loads of the structure to the Surrounding soil through the foundation. So we need to build strong columns, otherwise, failure will occur. Columns are built with two building material, concrete and steel. Before designing the columns, … Read more
Foundation Foundation is the lowest part of the building structure, which is directly in contact with the ground and provide the base for the superstructure and transmits the load to the sub-soil. The structure is not visible in a complete building because the portion of structure is below the ground level. Sub-soil:- The … Read more
Design Detail of Isolated Footing Isolated Footings (Par or spread footings) are commonly used for shallow foundations in order to carry and transfer concentrated loads, caused for example by column or pillar. Isolated footings are consists either of reinforcement or non-reinforcement. Isolated Footing Types of Isolated Footing 1. Pad Footing ( Uniform … Read more
Crack on Concrete Crack is a complete or incomplete separation of concrete into more parts produced by breaking or fracturing. Cracks are one kind of universal problems of concrete construction as it affects the building and it also destroys the wall’s integrity, affected the structure safety and even reduce the durability of structure. Cracks … Read more
What is Compaction? Compaction It is a mechanical process by which air is expelled out from soil mass to reduce the void and densify the soil. It is measured by proctor test. Factor Affecting Compaction 1. Water content 2. Amount of compaction 3. Type of compaction 4. Types of soil 5. Add of admixture (CaSo4 … Read more
