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.

Civil engineering Interview questions at L&T

Hacking on column :- 50 nos in 1sqfeet or 500 nos in 1sqmeter Cover blocks center to center distance :- 600 mm to 1 meter Beam shall not have width less than 200mm For 750mm depth beam provide :- Side Face Reinforcement & also called STIFFNOR Width to depth ratio of beam should be more then 0.3 Yoke interval in column should be 600 m / 2feet Diameter of needle for compaction in column = 40mm Why steel always circular ? Because circular patterns stress distribution equally. What slope you will provide if you are constructing staircase according IS 456 ? Answer :- 25° to 40° What's the least count of theodolite of compass ? Theodolite least count is 20 second Compass least count is 30 minute

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...

Basic civil engineering interview questions

Basic civil engineering interview questions Minimum spacing between chairs is 1 metre sand used in India obtained from Ennore ( Tamil Nadu) Concrete cube is filled in 3 layers Minimum percentage of steel in column is 0.8 % of gross area 1 yard is equal to 3 feet Slump cone field in 4 layers Binding wire required of 1 metric ton is 8 kg to 10 kg Technical name of binding wire is Annealed wire What is ties ? Ties are transverse reinforcement of column What is stirrups ? Stirrups is transverse reinforcement of beam What are the concrete test ? Slump test Compressive strength test Water permeability test Water absorption test Type of slumps True slumps - the concrete mass after the test when slumps evenly all around without disintegration is called TRUE slump . Shear slump - when one half of the concrete mass slide down the other is called Shear slump. This type of slope obtained in a lean concrete mix Collapse slump - when the sample is collapse due to addin...
