Vision to see reinforcement work and check if there is a problem

 

Before Checking the reinforcement it's very necessary to know the basics of reinforcement role in concrete. steel ( reinforcement ) which has the property of tensile is provided where there are tensile loads ie: beam, slab, cantilever, and also column ( although the column has a more compressive load it also has lateral loads also). 

Moving on to how much steel is required in concrete?  It depends on the type of concrete structure. it varies from 30 kg / m3  to 100 kg / m3

Checking the footing steel:- 

1) Footing steel should have a proper cover

2) Footing steel should have proper spacing ( c/c )  

3) Checking the diameter of the bar 

4) Checking the numbers of bars for column 

5) The equal distance from footing edge to column steel center.

6) Column steel should have proper stirrups 

Checking the column steel:- 

1) Column steel should have a proper cover

2) Column steel should have a proper number of bars

3) Overlap should not come at the same place for all bars

4) Overlap should be 50 Dia 

Checking the beam steel:-

1) Numbers of bars should be as per the design 

2) No bar should touch the shuttering, it should have a proper cover 

3) Beam rings should be tied properly and should be in proper alignment ( tilting should not be there )

Water Tank reinforcement:- 

1) Water tank base slab beam and tank wall reinforcement should have a properly developed length.

2) Champher bar should be there at the base slab and tank wall.

3) Extra cover should be present in water tank reinforcement.

4) Cross reinforcement should be there at the manhole cover.

Physical and chemical properties have to be checked before purchasing steel material, the ultimate tensile strength will be a minimum of 8 % more than the actual 0.2 %  proof stress or yield stress but not less than 545 n/ mm2  for Fe500 and elongation not less than 12 % 

 

Precast Concrete is an appealing choice for a variety of projects. The structure is designed and built in a factory, which helps to prevent costs and time. A team of professionals manages the project at every step of production, from design to execution. All the equipment needed to cast the reinforced concrete is also provided in the factory.

I am writing the below article on this topic and I am sharing it with you. Hope you will like it...

All over the world, concrete reinforcement is common for all structures. For construction, it is a basic need for concrete structures. It is part of any structure's creation. To find out concrete reinforcement costs you can visit our website. In this article, I will discuss the different aspects of concrete reinforcement and how the quality of concrete can be improved by reinforcement.

This blog will also look at how to design concrete reinforcement and how to improve the quality of concrete. Concrete Reinforcing steel is a vital component of concrete. It has to be done in such a way that it gives strength to concrete. If you follow certain guidelines while laying the concrete you can get concrete of good quality. Without proper concrete reinforcement, concrete may crack. So, you have to get the concrete right.

1. Why proper concrete reinforcement is important?

Concrete is one of the most widely used construction materials and is widely used in the construction of roads, bridges, buildings, dams, runways, and many other structures. Concrete is a very strong material, but to make it stronger, we use steel reinforcement bars. The most common type of steel used for reinforcement is mild steel, which is cheap and easy to weld. The steel reinforcement gives extra strength to the concrete and helps it withstand compression and tension. Reinforcement is known as the part of concrete which is used to provide the stability and strength of the concrete. The stability and strength of the concrete heavily depend on the reinforcement used in the concrete. In proper concrete reinforcement is important for the proper load-bearing capacity, load distribution, and durability. Proper concrete reinforcement is important for the proper load-bearing capacity, load distribution, and durability.

2. What is a binding wire?

A binding wire is a wire that is used to bind the reinforcement bars together. It is typically made of galvanized mild steel and comes in different sizes and forms. The size of the wire depends on the size of the reinforcement bars that are being bound together. The binding wire is often attached to the reinforcement bars using a binder, which is a type of wire connector. The reinforcement bars are bound together using the wire that is wrapped around the bars and the binder is used to hold the wire in place.

3. What are the types of proper binding wires?

Reinforcing bars are used in concrete to increase their strength and durability. Reinforcing bars are also known as rebars, and they are steel bars that are used in concrete to increase their strength and durability. The most common rebars are made of steel and are produced by rolling steel billet into a cylindrical shape.

4. Why proper cover is important?

Proper coverage is an important factor to consider while laying concrete structures. It is an important aspect of structural design. It is the amount of concrete placed above the cover of reinforcement. It is the protection given to the reinforcement steel from exposure to weather and atmosphere, the action of traffic, and service loads. Concrete which is correctly proportioned, properly placed, and finished, with full and proper cover, is the only construction material that will provide for service loads and still withstand the destructive forces of nature. The proper coverage is considered as 1/2 of the diameter of the bars, as per IS: 456. The cover is a very important factor in concrete construction. If a concrete member is not covered properly, it may be affected by corrosion and cause structural failure. This is because the concrete corrodes on the surface, which causes the steel in the concrete to rust, which in turn causes the steel to lose its strength. The loss of strength will cause the concrete to crack and fail. The concrete will crack because the rusting steel expands, and the concrete surrounding it contracts. This causes the concrete to crack and fail. The concrete will fail because it has lost the steel’s strength, which means that the concrete is no longer capable of supporting the load it was designed to bear.

Conclusion: Proper reinforcement and cover to the same are very important to get desired results. It can be done by using different types of binding wires with proper cover.
