How to Calculate Land Area at Site

Image
How to calculate land area at site The Solution is Heron’s Formula: If there is a triangle having three sides (a, b and c), and if you know the measurement of the three sides, then Area =  Where s is semi perimeter And s = (a + b + c)/2 Let’s suppose there is a land having irregular shape and we need to find the area of the land. In triangle ABD AB (a) = 3 m BD (b) = 4 m AD (c) = 5 m S = a + b + c /2 = (3 + 4 + 5)/2 = 6 m Area =  In triangle BCD BC (a) = 3 m CD (b) = 3 m DB (c) = 4 m S = (3 + 3 + 4)/2 = 5 m Area = 4.47 m 2 In triangle ADE Area = 3.8 m 2 Total area = 6 + 4.47 + 3.8 = 14.27 m 2 To get more details, go through the following video tutorial.

Some vital checklist for RCC slabs and beams

Some vital checklist for RCC slabs and beams 🔵 RCC slabs and beams should be checked correctly once they are fully arranged for concreting. Inspection of concreting works is considered as a vital step to attain superior strength and stability of the structure. The purpose of a check list at the time of making inspection of the concrete member is to keep record of the concrete placement and quality control measures provided at site. Phases of examination of Concrete Works - Examination of concrete is performed in following 3 stages, 1. Pre-placement 2. During placement 3. Post-placement. Type of examination of concrete is based on the type of concrete, i.e. PCC or RCC, type of components being casted like RCC slab, columns, footing, beams, walls etc. It is both useful for the contractor and engineer to keep the record of checks, in order that they can be submitted for any inconsistency. It can also be used as a proof of quantity of concrete work accomplished by the...
