Definition of Continuous frame and Truss

Definition of Continuous frame and Truss Continuous frame A continuous frame is a structure which is dependent for its stability and load carrying capacity, upon the ability of one or more of its joints to resist moment. In other words, one or more joints in continuous frame are more or less rigid. Truss or articulated structures A truss or an articulated structure, composed of bars, connected by frictionless pins at joints, and arranged so that the area enclosed within the boundaries of the structure is sub-divided by the bars into geometrical figures usually triangles. Or A truss is an assemblage of members or bars forming a framework of different geomteric figures usually triangles

✡  PRIMAR REQUIREMENTS OF FORMWORK REQUIREMENTS OF FORMWORK REQUIREMENTS OF FORMWORK – QUALITY, SAFETY & ECONOMY In the selection of materials for formwork, the three general principles  of quality ,  safety  and  economy must be paramount. Material quality can ensure safety, and significantly contributes to the achievement of economy. Formwork failure can result in loss of life and always causes catastrophic financial loss. Some general guidelines can be given for form face and framing materials, and for the associated components. These can be covered under the headings of Strength Stiffness Impact Resistance Durability Weight Accuracy Compatibility Insulation 1.   STRENGTH The material strength must be adequate to resist the forces anticipated. This is not only a structural design requirement, but also an essential safety aspect. 2.   STIFFNESS The structural movement under load must be small and predictable....

HOW TO DETERMINE WEIGHT VOLUME RELATIONSHIP OF SOIL? [STEP BY STEP]

Civil Engineering Classes HOW TO DETERMINE WEIGHT VOLUME RELATIONSHIP OF SOIL? [STEP BY STEP] WEIGHT VOLUME RELATIONSHIP OF SOIL The physical properties of a soil give insight as to the identification of the soil and the determination of its characteristics and load response. These properties can be determined by performing a laboratory analysis on undisturbed soil samples obtained during the test boring process. The laboratory analysis should be performed in accordance with the following ASTM Standard: D-854: Test Method for Specific Gravity of Soils It should be noted that laboratory analyses are performed under controlled conditions with exacting materials and equipment. The results of such analyses may be considered to be accurate. A field sample of undisturbed soil will contain three separate and distinct constituents – solids, water, and air. One of the important properties that must be determined in the laboratory analysis is tha...

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PLASTERING & POINTING

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PLASTERING & POINTING PLASTERING Applying mortar coats on the surfaces of walls, columns, ceiling etc. to get smooth finish is termed as plastering. Mortar used for plastering may be lime mortar, cement mortar or lime-cement mortar. Lime mortar used shall have fat lime to sand ratio of 1 : 3 or 1 : 4. If hydraulic lime is used mix proportion (lime: sand) is 1 : 2. Cement mortar of 1 : 4 or 1 : 6 mix is very commonly used for plastering, richer mix being used for outer walls. To combine the cost effectiveness of lime mortar and good quality of cement mortar many use lime-cement mortar of proportion (cement : lime : sand) of 1 : 1 : 6 or 1 : 1 : 8 or 1 : 2 : 8. The objective of plastering are: To conceal defective workmanship To give smooth surface to avoid catching of dust. To give good look. To protect the wall from rain water and other atmospheric agencies. To protect surfaces against vermit.   Requirement of good plaster are: It sh...

DESIGN PROCEDURES FOR A BUILDING FOUNDATION (STEP BY STEP) DESIGN PROCEDURES FOR A BUILDING FOUNDATION (STEP BY STEP)

Civil Engineering Classes DESIGN PROCEDURES FOR A BUILDING FOUNDATION (STEP BY STEP)  Design Procedure of foundation Good design must not only be safe but must aim to save construction costs, time and materials. The following procedures should help to achieve this and an ‘educated’ client will recognize the importance of funding this work with a realistic fee. 1. DECIDE THE LOCATION OF COLUMNS & FOUNDATION AND TYPE OF LOADS ACTING ON THEM.(E.X DEAL LOAD, LIVE LOAD OR WIND LOAD) On the building plan, the position of columns and loadbearing walls should be marked, and any other induced loadings and bending moments. The loads should be classified into dead, imposed and wind loadings, giving the appropriate partial safety factors for these loads. 2. ESTIMATE ALLOWABLE BEARING PRESSURE OF SOIL USING GROUND INVESTIGATION REPORT. From a study of the site ground investigation (if available), the strength of the soil at various depths or strata below foundation level sh...
