Sir,
How to design an elastomeric bearing pads for RCC bridges?
Dear sir,
what is radiation of gyration……..
To rakshith
The radius of gyration describes the manner in which the area of a cross-section is distributed around the centroidal axis. If the area is concentrated far from the centroidal axis it will have a higher value of radius of gyration and a greater resistance to buckling.
is the expation joints important for concreat ground water tanks
To Reda,
It is possible to omit expansion joints in water retaing structure and use steel reinforcement to control crack widths.
I would say in normal small to medium size underground water tanks, no joints are needed, to avoid leaks
Please tell me the calculation of the core test(concrete) , and details
please describe the design of self compacting concrete.
Sir, please give me the proportion of M15,M20,M25,M30,M35 As per IS:456-2000 for multistories building
how do i recommend the copaction of the soil in my soil report, 90%, 95% etc
To Alireza
The compaction test percentage is based on the soil procter test results. The criteria for compaction perfoamnce is 95% for general fill and 98% for formation.
Sir,
I am civil Engineer i need soil compaction test methodology for Procter compaction & sand replacement method
what is PRW bills and how the subcontractors get profit in steel by placing the steel bars at site as per drawing
Dear Sir,
Its very difficult to distinguish cement mortar and masonary mortar. Pl let me know the differences and the compressive strength of cubes for the same
Respected Sir,
How do we do curing in case of Pile Foundations…????
What are the precaution to take when design with concrete with zone III & Zone IV sand.
And cement content and percentage of Course and fine aggregate correction we have to made.
may you tell me what’s the composition of steel, and the density of iron?
what should be the lapping in bottom reinforcement that is staggering between bar to bar in footing is there any standard space between staggering for laping?
I need calculations for mass concreteing i.e., shuttering?
Hello Sir, my question is : “In suspension bridge, is the load of the road completely supported by cables or is it partially supported by pillars? If it is not so then how cables are able to withstand the load of road and vehicles ? And cables are made up of which materials?
Please tell me full stabilization process for a flexible pavement
haii…… sir..
i hav a small doubt plz clarify.. what is the relation between pressure and velocity?????… (i.e.inversly or not)
if it is inversly proportional then how to proove it???………
The angle of internal friction ( Fi) of silty clay tipicaly higher than a gravel
is it true or fals? can you explain?
I m doing my masters in computer aided structure engg. I m finding any topic for my dissertation work. so plz suggest any topic related to concrete or design..
