Dear Experts. Which hose pipe is better for pouring CLC/Foam Concrete Slurry in directing casting
BALAKRISHNA SHETTY

Mayur says:

Sir, please let me know that books available for various types of building construction bylaws.

mahendran.k says:

compression strength which is high cover block and concrete bricks

bilal says:

my question is that where should i use 25mm, 20mm and 16 mm steel bars in building…. thanks

Sirisha says:

can any one suggest me a research topic on Nanotechology

mrs.pawar says:

can we use ppc or psc cement instead of opc

vismay shah says:

Minimum grade of Concrete required for Core testing

Sujan Shakya says:

why there is difference between reinforcement percentage in manual design of column and its sap analysis? Eventhough the column is short, it takes additional moment, why is it so?

vikas mane says:

can we increase the strength of slab and beam in existing structure? if yes how can it be done

GAURAV BONDRE says:

How to break parapet walls safely in building which is in use?

MAHESH LAHOTI says:

HOW MUCH VARIATION IN CUBES SIZES ALLOWED AFTER CASTING?

s.k sharma says:

Sir,
i want to know How much kg should consider in M25/M30/M10/M40 grade of RMC.

Naman solanki says:

plzzz explain in detail ….what is survey station,remote sensing

vishal says:

A total station or TST (total station theodolite) is an electronic/optical instrument used in modern surveying and building construction. The total station is an electronic theodolite (transit) integrated with an electronic distance meter (EDM) to read slope distances from the instrument to a particular point.[1]

Robotic total stations allow the operator to control the instrument from a distance via remote control. This eliminates the need for an assistant staff member as the operator holds the reflector and controls the total station from the observed point.

BSShetty says:

Dear Sirs, After pouring CLC Foam Concrete ( Direct Casting) very next day it is sinking and 3 to 4″ material comes down…

jagadeesh rejeti says:

howmuch strength difference between tensile and compressive of steel bar

Balvinder Singh Kalra says:

Hello Sir , i need help on –

Hollow Concrete Block
&
Ash Brick Block

Which of the two has more strength .
Which of the two is advisable if Building is on A – PILLAR .

Very confused between two , i have to start a new commercial project but not able to decide which block to use.

Aakash says:

Minimum three specimens should be tested at each selected age. If strength of any specimen varies by more than 15 per cent of average strength, results of such specimen should be rejected. Average of there specimens gives the crushing strength of concrete. The strength requirements of concrete.

Engr Muhammad Asif says:

Yesterday I was in the Lab, checking the Compressive Strength of Concrete Cubes, I have a Question, what is the Mechanism of that Machine.? How & Why it Stop when Cub start Cracking.??

Eben Amu says:
