In civil engineering Some important note about Reinforcement casting

Why cover blocks used in Reinforcement:-

To maintained specified distance between Rebars & shuttering.
To protect Reinforcement from corrosion.
To provide Thermal insulation.

Lapping in Tension :-

L = 50D to 60D (D= diameter of bars)

Lapping in compression :-

L = 24D

No. Of stirrups calculation :-

{ Clear span/center to center spacing}+1

Minimum Hook length of stirrups :- 9D(90mm)
Deflection means :- Temporary displacement
Deformation means :- permanent displacement
Stirrups hook angle should be 135°
MS bar larger than 36mm diameter should not be lapped. if it's than welding is referred.
No lapping should be placed in tension zone.
The longitudinal bar should be bent at 90° & bent length should not be less than 18"or 1.5 feet.
End hook angle of longitudinal bars of columns & beam should be 90°
More than 50% of bar should not be lapped in one zone.
The length of hook should not be less than 12d. Where "d" is diameter of bar.
Young modulus of steel (Es) = 2*10^5 N/ mm
Strength of Reinforcement should not be less than 15% of its designated strength.

CONCRETE POURING IN RAIN- how to pouring concrete in rainy days

CONCRETE POURING IN RAIN https://askciviltech.blogspot.com/2020/06/knowledge-of-cement-concrete-behaviour.html CONCRETE POURING:- Water is a major component of all concrete. which is mixed with cement and causes it to hydrate and regain strength. After concrete is laid water can do more harm than good as driving rain. Pouring concrete in the rain can compromise its strength, leading to increased tendency to dust and scaling. Once damage is done. it can be difficult to fix and will often ruin the appearance of the finished surface. Do not let it rain on your parade. Here are some tips to prevent and prevent rain-damaged concrete. Advice for pouring concrete in the rain Despite modern weather forecasting techniques and radar maps, an unexpected rain shower can develop without warning, especially during the hottest months of the year. If rain is in the forecast, you should postpone pouring a large concrete until conditions improve. Even if rain is not predicted you should always be pre

cement plaster or gypsum plaster - which is the best plaster ?

Cement Plaster vs Gypsum Plaster https://askciviltech.blogspot.com/2020/06/knowledge-of-cement-concrete-behaviour.html The rich contribution of plaster to the beauty and preservation of the surface of the walls need hardly be debated. The most popular types of plaster used for building construction are cement and gypsum plaster. This ointments are used for external and internal plastering of the building. They form a protective layer that covers stone and brick masonry with RCC walls and ceilings. Additionally, wall plastering is effective in leveling wall and ceiling surfaces, Gypsum and cement are also used to make textures or plaster and finishes. cement plaster:- Cement plaster is a homogeneous mixture made of Portland cement, sand, and water. The thickness of cement plaster is usually between 12 and 20 millimeters, depending on the type of wall or roof surface that needs to be plastered. Note: A rich cement plaster mixture is obtained by mixing one part The pros Cement plast
