3. CO!VLPONENTS OF BULLDING
Individual footings are one or the 1110s1 si1111,le and common typesof foundations. These are
used when 1hc load oflhe building is oarTicd by columns. Usually. each column will have its
uwn fooling. 1l1c lboting is just a square or rectangular pad of toncrc1c on which the column
sits.To get o very rough idcu of the size of the footing, the engineer will takethe totul loud on
1he column and divide i1 by1he safe bearingcnpnci1y (SBC) of 1hc soil. for exa1111>le, if a
column has a vertical load of IOT. and 1he S13C of the soil is IOT/m2, 1hen the area of1he
footing will be 1m2. In practice, the designer will look 01 many 01hcr foctors before prcpnring
Individual footings nre usually connected by a plinth beam. a horizontal be-am 1h01 is buih a1
ground or below ground level.
I) \Vhen there is a layer of weak soil at 1hc surface. This layer cannot sup1>ort lhc
weight of the building. so the loads of the building have to by)>llss this layer and be
transferred to the layer ofstronger soil or rock that is below t11c weak layer.
2) \Vhen a building hns very heavy, concentrated load!i:, such -as in a high rise
stnicture. Pile foundations are capable ofuiking higher loads than spre.ad Foo1ings.
There ,ire two types of pile foundmions, coch of which works in i1s own wny,
Friction Piles:
Friction piles work on a different principle. The pile transfer,; tho loud of the building to the
soil across the full height of the pile, by friction. l1l other words. the entire surface of1he pile.
which is cylindrical in shape. works10 transfer the forces10 the soil.
To \lisualise hO\Y this works. imagine you are pushing a solid metal rod ofsay4min
diameter intoa tub of frozen ice<:ream. Once you have pushed it in, it is strong enough to
support some load. The greater the cmbl."<lmcnt depth in the ice cream, the more loud it
con suppor1. This is very similar to how a friction pile works. In a friction pile, the amount
of load a pile can sup1,ort is direclly proponionntc 10 iL,; length.
Breadth of lintel isgenerally equals to the breadth of wall. In case of metric unit. it is
nommlly cqunls to I0cm, 15cm, 20cm etc. \Vhilc, in tasc of FPS system it isconsider as61".
9''. 12·• etc.
Thickness of lintel should not be less than I0cm (4.5'') and ma imu111thickness of
lintel should not be more rhun i1s bre1:1d1h.
SUN SHADE:
Sun shade isa slob that iscast on the top of doors and windows. Sun shade protects doors and
windows from sun and rain. Sun shade iscast monolithicallywith the lintel.
DOORS AND \\'INDO\VS:
A dOOI' isa moving stl'\lc1urc used to block ofl and nllow access10, 911 entrance 10 OI'
wiihin on enclosed space.such as a building or vehicle. Dool'S nonnolly consist oro panel
thnt swings on hinges on the edge, but there arc also doors that slide or spin inside of a
spncc.
A window is an opening ina wall.door, roof or vehicle that allows the pali;s.agc oflight
and. if not closed or sealed, air and sound.
They also lcll me abom the material used in constmction of first noor of our building like w/c
ratio in concrete, grade of concrete which was u. ed for consrmction work, types of bricks etc
asfollowing.
4.1 CEi\lliNT:
Cemeni was lirsidiscovered by an English brick layer nnmcd Joseph Aspdin in 1824. He
called ii Ponland cement for the reason that the cement he discovcn:d resembled the
lime litonc found in Ponl:md. There are many other types of cement. 1"he approximate
composition of Pon land cement is given below
nuucrinl Composition
I. Lime (Cao) 60-70%
2. Silica (Si02) 20-25%
The t\lnction of cement is to combine with water and to fonn ccmen1paste. This pnste first
sets i.e. it becomes fi,•msi\lld1hen hardens due10 chemical reaction. called hydrntion.
be1wccn 1hc cement and water. On scuing & hardening. the cement binds the aggregate

to the concrete. Quality of cement is based on grndc of cement. There arc diITer-:nt types
of
Grade which use in construction work. These are given below.
• 33 Gmde ore is used for general constn1ction works like plastering and finishing
works in normal environmcn1nl condi1ions. However. hs use is vinunlly phased ou1
1odny.
• Coming 10 the 43 Grade OPC. it is the most commonly used grade for
home cons1n1ction. h hos its applications in plnstcring. finishing works. preen.st
items.
foundations., brick work. und compound wall and so on. It has morestrength
development than ll1c 33 Gmdc cement.
• 53 Gmde OPC develops strength very fast. High rise building constructions use
53 grade cement. This is applicable for usein s1n1ctures where high-Grade concrete is
required.
4.2 AGGREGATE:
Aggreg:ttes are small 1>ieccs of broken stones: in irregular size and shapes. Neat ce1nent is
very rnrely used in cons1n1c1ion works since it is liable 10shrink 100 much and
become cracks on.scning, Mor,-ovcr, it will be costly 10 use neut ccmcn1 in
cons1ruc1.ion wol'k. Therefore ccmcn1 is mixed with some incn strong & durable
hard materials.
They also reduce ll1c cost of concrete because tJ1cy arc comparative much cheaper us
cement. There are two types of aggregates
I .Fine Aggrcga1e
2. Coarse Aggl'cga1c
4.Z.I FlNE AGGREGATE (SAND):
The a_ggrcgate. which pass through 4. 75 mm. I.S. sieveand en1ircly retain on 75 micron
(.07Smm) I.S. sieve is known as fine aggrcgalc.
wutc.r. These aggregates increuse the strength orbonding in aggreglllcs. Coarse aggregates
arc used in con.scmction of phm cement concrete (PCC), founda1ion. beams and columns
etc.
At 1hc site con1rac1or usedcoarse aggrcga1e of size I Omni & 20mm which wns

GRADING OF CONCRETE:
Concrete forcons1ruc1ion work is defined by difictenl gmdcs as the rotio of cement:sand:
coarse oggrega1e.
The principle of gntding is that the smaller particles will fill up the voids between
largt.:. particles. This results in the mosl economical use of cement paste for filling the
voids & binding together the aggregate in the prcpatation of concrete.
Thus proper grading of line & coarse aggregate in concrete mix: produces a dense
concre1e wi1.h less quumity of cement,
At our construction site the grade of concrete which was used in R.C.C
slnb, Column, Beams was M20. Ra1io forccmem : sand: coarse aggregate was I:1.5:3
.
REINFORCEMENT:
The nuuerittl ,\1hich is used 10 develops ll good bond with concrc1c in order 10 incrcosc its
tensilestrength is known as rcinlbrccment. Steel bars nre highly strong in tension,
FUNCTION OF REINFORCEMENT:
Reinforcement works as a tension member because concrete is strong in compression ond
week in tension so reinforcement resists 1hc1cnsilc stresses in 1he concrete members.
A1 the si1e<:<m1ro.::1or was using1he high s1rcngth steel bars and T.M.T. (Thcnno
Mcchunicully Treated) bars of diameter S mm, IO mm,12mm. 16 mm & 25 mm ilS J>Cr
requiremem of design in column, beams. slabs.
4.3 \YATER:
h is an important ingrcdiem of concrete because il combines with cement and fonns o
binding paste. The paste thus formed fills up the voids of the sand and coorsc aggregate
bringing them into close adhesion. We should check pH value of water, TDS, sodium
potassium carbonate and bicarbonates, chloride.content, c::ilciurn chloride. sodium s-ulphide.
sodium hydroxide and should be pcrfonn various 1cs1s before using i1 in constn1c1ion work.
In our project source of wo1er is o 1ubc well which is already there in construc1ion
site.llte quality or water is good for purpose of constmction work and can be useU for
drinking purpose ulso.
4.4 R.C.C.
Though plain cement concrCh! has high compressive s1rcng1h and its 1cnsilc SLrcngth is
relatively low. Nonnnlly, the tensile strcngd1of a concrete is about I0% to 15% of ils
compressive strength. Hence if a beam is made up of plain cement concrete. it hns a very low
load carrying capacity. So there is need 10 use reinforced concrete which have more tensile
strc11g1h than plain concrete. And plnin concre1e's behaviour is brittle bu1 reinforced concrete
is ductile in behaviour so i1sserviceabili<y is good. So R.C.C is proforn.'d for co11s1ruc1io11
work. In our prOj(.-C•t we nlso u.sed reinforced concrete thon plain concrete in construction
of beams. columns. und slabs.

- 2½'•-2•·, I ½•'-¾"&1/2"-3/81•
• Each group (fraction) is weighed and tested for thickness on npproprfate openingof
• the thickness gauge by possing each pnniclc through slot of spcciticd thickness along
• least dimension.
• TI1c weight of puniclcs pas.,;ing 1hc thickness gauge is recorded for each frnc1ion. This
• is the weight of naky paniclcs.
• 111c flakiness index is calculated by expressing the weight of lluky particles as a
• percentage of total weight of the sample.
Elongation:
These are the particles having length considerably larger thnn the other two dimensions and
it is the particle whose greater dimension is 1.S1imes its mean size.
Limh ofclonga1cd particles in the 111ixcs is 45%. Thus. if the elongated paniclcs arc greater
tlllln 45%. then the.tggrcgmc is considered undcsiroble for the intended use.
Elongation lndoJ:

6.3 TRANSPORTATION:
The process of carrying Liteconcrete mix from the pk1cc of it's mixing to final position of
deposition is tcnned as trnnsponation of concrete. There arc many methods of
trnnsportmion as mentioned below•
Tn:111spor1 of concrc1e by pans
Transpon of concrete by wheel bMrows
Transpon of concrete by tipping Lorries
Trnnsport of concrete by pumps
Transpon of concrete by beltconveyors
Al this sile belt conveyors ,verc used.
6.4 COMPACTORS:
\Vhcn lhc concrete hos beenplaced. it shows a very loose s1ruc1ure. \Veused dense
concrc1e for constn1ction work, because i1have more strength 1han loose concrete so
compaction afier placing of concre1e is necess:lry. Mence, it must be compacted 10remove
the t1ir bubbles and voids so as to make it denseandsolid concrete to obtain a high su-
ength. There are two method• of compnction.
1. Manuol compaction
2. Mcchanica.1 compaction
There are four types ormechanical vibr.notS whichur used in concre1c con\paclion
Generally in large projccls mechanical compac1ors arc used . There are various mechanical
compnclors which uses according10 requircmcm as m.-cdlc andscreed vibralorsneeded to
compact the column nnd noor respcc1ivcly.
A1 our construction site mainly 2 vibrators arc used forcompuction which was
needle vibnuor andsurface vibnnor.

8. TEr>1PORARY STRUCTURES
8.1 SCAFFOLDING
The scaffolding is a tcmpor.try structure which is used in building operations to support
platfom1s for workmen . structural material and appliances required during construction at
raised heights nonnally more 1han l.5 mCl'cr .This lemporary fonn work is useful in
building
cons1n1c1ion. demoli1ion. maintenance and repair works. Scaftblding is erec1ed either on one
or both sides orthe wnll. For ordinary work scaffolding muy be erected on one side only but
for all superior quality works it must be provided on b-Oth sides of wall. The height of the
scaffolding con be adjusted with the progress of the work. Mostly timber scaflblding is
used due to economy.
Types of scaffolding or scaffold-
Single scanolding
Donblc scaffolding
Ladder scaffolding
Cantilever scolTolding
Steel scalToldiog
Suspended scalToldins
Trc-.tle scaffolding
Wooden gantries
8.2. FORM\VORK
formwork is temporary or per1111mc111 moulds into which concrete or similar materials arc
poured. In the conte,',I of concrete construction. the folse work SUJ>pon.s the shuuering
moulds.

SHUTTERING:
Shuttering or fonn work is the tcnn used for 1cmpornry timber, plywood. metal or other
material used to provide support to wet concrete mix till il gets strength for self support. h
provides suppons to horizontal. vertical and inclined surfaces or also provides support to cast
concrete according to required shape and size.The fonn work also produces desired fini h
concrc1esurface.
Shuucring or fonn work should be strong enough 10 suppon the weight of wet concrete mix
and the pressure for placing 3nd compacting concrete inside or on lh..: top of fom1
work/shuttering. Itshould be rigid to prevent any dcnection in surface after laying cement
concrete and be also suffi-cieru tight to prevcnl loss ofwa1cr and monar fom, cement
concre1e. Shm1ering should be easy in handlin£. erection at si1c and easy10 remove
when ccmcn1 concrete is sullicicnt hard.
I. $reel Shunering
2. Wooden Planks Shuucring
3. Tcmpomry Brick Masonry Shuucring
Steel shuttering
Steel shut!ering pla1c is the best t)1>e of shuttering because this is wa1er tigh1 shuttering which
can bear the load of cement concrete placed on it This shunering can be used for horizontal.
vertical or any other shopc required for the work. It gives levelled surfi1ce which has good
appearance. 111is shuttering gives good appcamncc and pauem work according 10
arohitccturnl drawings. If the plaster is required. the thickness of plaster will be less. B ing
water 1ight shuHcring_. t11e strength ofconcrete withsteel shuttering is compamtivcly higher.
CENTERING:
is a type of folsework the temporary strucrnrc upon which the sloncs of an arch or vault
are laid during construction. Unril the keystone is inserted an arch has no strength and
needs the cciuring 10 keep the voussoirs in 1hcir COITCCI relative positions. A simple
cen1ering wilhout a trnss is called u common centering. The cross piece connc.-c1ing ccn1cring
Ii-tunes are called a Ing.
The centring is normi1lly mnde of wood timbers. which was a rclnrivc.ly straig_htforward
structure in u simple arch or vault. but with more com1,lex shapes, involving double
curvuwrc. such as a small dome or 1hc bolllC•shupcd Ouc.-s of the ki1chc.ns of some
Nonnun· period houses: clay or stmdboundby u weak limemortarmix could be usl.'tl.
STAGING:
Materials such as wooden buHicsi pipc.-s. props. jacks which support both shuttering &
centering nreknown as Staging.

BEAMS: -
i1is n s1ruc1ural member cons1n1c1cd to 1ransfer 1he loads from slab to column it serves
as a com1cc1or lO save the column from sliding ounvnrds. Basically beams are rigid
structural members designed lo c1\ny and transfer the tronsvcrse loads ( londs pcrpendiculor
to ils longitudin11I ax:is) across space 10 supporting elcmcn1s. Reinforced concrete beams
arc commonly used in construction as it provide extra tensile strength, and J>ro\les lo be
economical.
,,, Uli'R
Rsurc,l8•do1.1lhn.aofbum
Types of beam
a) Jois1-Whcn provided in buildings to support roofs, tl1cy :ire called joists.
b) Girder• a large beam supponing a number of joists.
c) Spandrels• cx1crior beams at lloor level of building. which carry port of the lloor load and
that of the exterior wall arc called spandrels.
d) Purlins- beam which carry roof load in trusses.
e) Lintels- which su1>pon the loads from 1he masonry over the openings.
COLUMN:-
Column i.s a supponing pillar and a structural elemenl which transfer the upcoming load and
il•s self-weight to the hard soil through lbundation or a column is defined as a venical
compression member which is moinly subjeetcd 10 oxial loads nnd 1hc cffecLive Ieng.lb or
which exceeds three times its lrncral dimension. Failure occurs when the stresses due to
direct axial loads exceeds the compressive strength of the material avnilablc in the cross
section. On the other hand, an eccentric Jond can produce bending and results in uneven
distribution of stress.
