What is Partition wall? The partition wall is also known as the stud wall. Normally buildings have two different types of walls. One of them is a load-bearing wall and another is which does not support load on it. Most of the exterior walls of the building are load-bearing walls and also in some cases …

What are Curb and Gutter? Kerb (sometimes called Curbs) is one of the components of the road provided at the edges of the carriageway to provide barrier and safety so that vehicles cannot cross it. Curbs are usually made of either stone or concrete of high strength and have certain more elevation than the road …

A retaining wall is a rigid structure build to retain the soil or the masses of debris at one end having different levels so that the soil masses don’t slip from it. Thus, retaining walls are specially designed for lateral earth pressure and forces. The retaining wall further protects the direct vertical exposure of soil …

What is post tension slab? Concrete has high strength in compression but is weak in tension. Since it is brittle in nature it may crack suddenly after failure. So, to make the concrete strong in tension and prevent the sudden collapse of the structure we have to provide tension-bearing materials like steel rods in the …

The beam which is supported at one end but free at the other end is known as a cantilever beam. Bar bending schedule of cantilever beam means simply to calculate the total quantity of steel rods or reinforcement required in the beam for safe load-bearing. In the cantilever beam, tension force acted at the top …
