  Step by Step- RCC roof Slab steel calculation- Numerical Example In this article, I have described step by step RCC roof Slab steel calculation. So read it carefully one by one to get a clear understanding. Slab is a structural member which enable people to move from one floor and one place to another place in a flat. With out slab one can not take benefit of any structure like, building, culvert, bridge. etc. What is RCC Slab? Simply, the slab in which steel bars are used is known as RCC Slab. The full form of RCC is reinforced concrete cement. Where Reinforcement is called a steel rod. The slab should be strong enough to bear the required load according to design. The slab should be provided steel bars to withheld tensile force, so this slab is called the RCC slab. I have given an example for the calculation of the quantity steel rod in slab below. Let us take an example of a slab. Numecal for RCC roof Slab steel calculation Q) The length and breadth of slab is 10 meter and 7 m...

  In this article I have described about what is PCC, DPC and RCC in civil engineering. These terms are often used in civil engineering. So, I have given some pointwise explanation with their meaning, function and uses. But you have to read carefully to understand it better for practical life in construction. The different between pcc, rcc and dpc are given below:- what is PCC DPC and RCC in civil engineering What is PCC? It stand for Plain concrete cement. This is the mixture of cement, sand , aggregate and water only. Reinforcement is not provided in concrete while construction. It can not be used for column, beam, slab etc which have to bear load or tensile force. It can bear compressive load only so, it can be used for making floor, retaining wall, road etc. What is RCC? It stand for  Reinforcement  concrete cement. This is the mixture if cement, sand , aggregate,water as well as steel rods. It can be used for column, beam, slab etc which have to bear load or compress...

  Estimation is a crucial part of an Engineering. Every civil technician should have a good knowledge of it. The accurate estimation set of procedures is not be followed. Here is the stepwise procedure to calculate the numbers of bricks in the Masonry wall. You can download a .pdf file for calculation of bricks in the wall just by clicking on the top right corner of this article. General Procedure for to calculate bricks in a wall First of all, calculate the volume of the Masonry. (Volume=length x Breadth x Height) Then check for the specification of the brickwork to determine the size of brick and proportion of the mortar and thickness of the mortar joint. Calculated the volume of the individual building units. Also, calculate the volume of the building unit with mortar in it. For instance, if the standard size of brick is 230mmx105mmx55mm and the mortar thickness is 10mm then the volume of the building unit with mortar will be 240mmx115mmx65mm. After that calculate numbers of bui...

  Concrete pavement which is occasionally called rigid pavement is a concrete layer that is in contact with traffics directly and it is used for different purposes and applications. The concrete used for pavements can be modified and changed in various ways as per the requirement. Not only does the concrete pavement need to be strong and durable but also it must be workable and cost effective because it is commonly prone to severe environmental conditions. Concrete pavements offer several advantages which is not possessed by bituminous pavement designs, for example, it is considerably suitable for large points loads, withstand diesel spillage and other aggressive materials, suitable for cases where sub-grade strength is low, resist high temperature, and many more benefits. There are different types of concrete pavement which are employed for various applications and these will be discussed in the following sections.
