Beam and Girder look the same but the girder has to beam a heavier load than the beam. The beam is generally constructed to beam distributed load whereas girders are constructed to bear heavy point load from the group of Continue reading Beam vs Girder | Different between Beam and Girder and their Application
What Method of joints in truss? The process of analyzing the truss ie. to find the forces in each member of the truss by using joints of the truss and making all forces acting on joints in the equilibrium equation Continue reading Determine the force in each member of the truss by Method of joints
We know the modulus of elasticity of steel is 2*105 Mega Pascale for all grades of steel. But how can we Calculate the Modulus of elasticity of concrete? Let us discuss it. The concept behind the modulus of elasticity of Continue reading How to Calculate the Modulus of elasticity of concrete?
Free Body Diagram (FBD) Free Body Diagram is a sketch of the body (space diagram) drawn in such a way that it shows all the reaction forces, applied forces, and moments on the body. It enables us to check the Continue reading Free Body Diagram- Guides to Drawing a good FBD for Equilibrium
Hello guys, I have discussed the Most Useful Civil engineering apps for Android below one by one. Smartphones have really essential tools for engineering purposes. The old days, where engineer carries big bags containing notebooks, pens, measuring instruments, calculating devices, Continue reading Top 17 Most Useful Civil engineering apps for android – 2020
What is Floating Column? • It is a vertical member which rests on a beam and does not transfer loads directly to the foundation. • It is not floating really, supported on the beam. Floating column at as a point Continue reading Floating Column – Reinforcement details | Merits and Demerits
Development length is the length of steel bars that should be embedded into the concrete of other members to make the strong bond between members like column, beam, slab, etc. The development length formula of steel is given below. For Continue reading Development length formula- How to Calculate development length of steel
In the previous article, I had discussed Rate analysis for Concrete. But we will talk about how to do rate analysis for plastering step by step. The plaster contains a mixture of sand and cement only. So, to calculate the Continue reading Rate analysis for plastering – Step by Step Procedure for Calculation
There are different types of steel bars used in construction. The reinforcement bar is a steel bar that is used as tension in reinforced masonry structures and reinforced concrete to strength & aid the concrete under tension. The term concrete Continue reading Types of steel bars used in construction- Characteristic strength of steel
What is riveted joints? There are different Types of riveted joints used to joint two steel or timber member. Rivets are the non-threaded strong joints that are generally made up of aluminum or steel consisting of head and shank. And, Continue reading Types of riveted joints – Types of failure in riveted joints
