Different tests of bricks or bricks Different tests of bricks or bricks Good quality goods are needed for good work. The use of bricks for construction work is widespread. So it is important to know the characteristics of the good brick. Likewise, you need something about the brick test. Today I will talk about some of the limitations of my knowledge General Chat Chat Lounge 1. Crushing Strength: It is used to determine the compression strength of a brick. Five bricks are taken as samples for this. Then, with a crashing machine, the pressure is applied through the machine. The force needed to break the brick. That ball is recorded. This way the strength of the five bricks is tested. After this, the average of the compressible strength of these five bricks is taken, and the average value is the compressible strength of the brick. General Chat Chat Lounge 2. Fluorescence Test: The amount of alkali or salt is tested by. Salt is very harmful to the construction work. With water from the hu...

Concrete cancer

Concrete cancer Concrete cancer Not just the cancer that causes human beings. Concrete can be cancerous. Sounds a bit different, but the facts are true. Improper hand-building or malpractices can result in concrete and cancer. And concrete cancer is a very serious problem for concrete structures. We have a general belief that concrete is never destroyed or destroyed, and this blind faith causes more problems. Less different types of problems arise in concrete. Concrete cancer is one of them. Generally, such problems occur in Concrete when concreting occurs at or near Ground Level. Concrete cancer structures are capable of causing a great deal of damage. If it is not repaired in the right way at the right time. # What is Concrete Cancer? If water enters the concrete or comes into contact with mosquitoes in a large way, the internal steel reinforcement (rod) of the concrete is swollen, and a crack occurs at the concrete. This is a cancer of the concrete but for other reasons it can be co...

A Civil Engineer that must know and obey. A Civil Engineer that must know and obey.  Site Management: First of all I would say site management, because engineers have to handle people from Ordinary Labor to Consultants, Clients, Management and various government non-government organizations. The more efficiently they can handle these tasks, the faster they can perform tasks accurately. Good knowledge of drawing: We read Polytechnic "Drawing is the mother language of an engineer", that is, drawing is not an option. Drawing is the language of an engineer, as successful as he is in the skilled work area. If a drawing idea is not a good idea, you should catch the foreman as the contractor has to call the boss !! Keep in mind that this ignorance will make everything dusty, so you need to study drawing more often. You can get the help of someone senior or the internet if needed. Knowing Estimates: This is very important for a civil engineer, always keep in mind that Estimates will ...

Soil tests

                                                                   Soil tests Soil tests are essential in designing the right foundation and determining the right cost or cost. It is important to know that the foundation design of a house is not possible without a soil test at the construction site. Soil testing must be done in the construction of any low ground or filled soil. Soil Testing Methods at Site: . 1To inspect and survey the site or plot. 2. Select the boring number and location according to the field conditions and complete the boring task accordingly. 3. Determine the boring depth as needed. 4. Collecting intact and scattered samples of soil at each boring site and testing in the laboratory. 5. Determine the SPT value of the soil at 8 feet with boring or drilling and find out the safe bearing capacity of th...

Some structural ideas needed by a site engineer Keep sharing.

Some structural ideas needed by a site engineer Keep sharing. A Site Engineer has a lot of structural ideas. Likewise, some of the structural issues were shared. If you have an opinion on a piece of information you can share in the comments. Shear Key in Column: The shear key is kept at the construction joint (especially in the column) for two main reasons Shear Resistance of 3 Column to Increase Capacity Displacement within the Adjacent Segment of the 4 columns to minimize the risk. ✅Shear Key is usually kept at a depth of 2 "to 4", so keep in mind that the hole is well # cleared before the next molding. ✅ It would be best if the hole is covered with polythene the next day after welding so that it can be easily removed. Column Casting Height: In many cases, the contractor is casting a Full Height Column to finish the job in a timely manner, which is not a requirement at all. In this case, you must cast columns in two or more elevators, which can happen if you do not ✅ Void o...

Things to do in building a new building or structure

Things to do in building a new building or structure: 2. Structural design rules must be followed before designing any building. It is important to remember that without proper structural design, no earthquake building will occur. General Chat Chat Lounge 2. Prior to the building design, an experienced engineer should produce qualitative analysis of the soil and an accurate assessment of the soil capacity. General Chat Chat Lounge 2. Experienced engineers (civil engineers) should be supervised during the construction of the building so that quality is maintained. General Chat Chat Lounge 2. To see if quality cement, rod, sand is being used in the correct proportion. Under no circumstances should the concrete's carrying capacity be reduced below 1 psi. For that, civil engineers who are in charge of the construction site on a permanent basis will have to test the cube or cylinder. Avoid the use of excess water in concrete mixtures. After casting, the concrete should be cured using wa...
