Factors consider during or before concreting process

Factors consider during or before concreting process
  • Check all dimensions(Eg: reinforcement length, breadth, stirrup spacing,ties distance etc).
  • Proper vibration will be provided during concreting.
  • Check mix proportion.
  • Check the water/cement ratio.

Basics of BIM ARCHICAD

Image
BIM ARCHICAD : ARCHICAD is an architectural BIM CAD software for Macintosh and Windows developed by the Hungarian company Graphisoft. ARCHICAD offers computer aided solutions for handling all common aspects of aesthetics and engineering during the whole design process of the built environment  buildings, interiors, urban areas, etc.. Development of ARCHICAD started in 1982 for the original Apple Macintosh. Following its launch in 1987, with Graphisoft's "Virtual Building" concept, ARCHICAD became regarded by some as the first implementation of BIM ARCHICAD has been recognized as the first CAD product on a personal computer able to create both 2D and 3D geometry, as well as the first commercial BIM product for personal computers and considered "revolutionary" for the ability to store large amounts of information within the 3D mode.

Rebound Hammer test

Image
Rebound Hammer test : Rebound Hammer test is a Non-destructive testing method of concrete which provide a convenient and rapid indication of the compressive strength of the concrete. The rebound hammer is also called as Schmidt hammer that consist of a spring controlled mass that slides on a plunger within a tubular housing. Objective of Rebound Hammer Test : To determine the compressive strength of the concrete by relating the rebound index and the compressive strength To assess the uniformity of the concrete To assess the quality of the concrete based on the standard specifications To relate one concrete element with other in terms of quality Rebound hammer test method can be used to differentiate the acceptable and questionable parts of the structure or to compare two different structures based on strength. Rebound Hammer Positions for Testing Concrete Structure : Points to Remember in Rebound Hammer Test : The concrete surface should be smooth, clean and dry. ...
