    Corrugated Sheet:

    1. It is composed of hot-dip galvanised mild steel and cold rolled for producing a linear corrugated pattern. More amount of iron is present in it.
    2. Actually, corrugation increases the bending strength of the sheet when the direction is perpendicular to the corrugations.
    3. Steel must be stretched to bend in the direction of perpendicular to the corrugations.
    4. Usually, every sheet is already manufactured linger in its strong direction.

    Applications of corrugated sheets are given below:

    • In Architectural and construction field
    • In the packaging sector
    • In the Printing sector
    • In the medical field

    Thanking You.

    Weight of different ingredient of Mortar 1:3 –

    Here, I will give you a simple way to calculate the weight of different ingredients in a mortar.

    • The mortar ratio is 1:3, it simply means that the 1 part of cement is present and 3 part of sand is present in that type of mortar.
    • Consider, w/c ratio = 0.4
    • We are doing all calculation for 1kg of mortar.

    1 part = 1/(0.4+1+3) = 0.227

    Water Required =0.25 x 0.227 = 0.056kg

    Cement= 0.2247 kg

    Sand =3.15 x0.227 = 0.717 kg

    Thank You.

    The most active part of cement is the material finer than 10-15 nanometer. Furthermore, a fine grind of cement clinker is able to coat the surfaces of aggregates more completely than coarse material enabling intimate contact of the resultant paste or mortar.

can we consider drum mixing of concrete same as batch mix or nominal mix?

    Yes. Of course. The method of mixing is not relevant to batching. So long as the quantities and proportions remain what they need to be, drum mixing or hand mixing, both are batch mixing. In fact, in the industry, mostly drums are used for mixing concrete because they save time and labour.

    Place bricks on one top of the other around the concrete shape you want to find its volume.

    First, choose a rectangular shape around the object and then going to the object.

    Then place a sufficiently large sheet of polythene in the space around the concrete object for covering the mold.

    Then take a standard bucket of 25-liter capacity and then slightly pour water within the polythene most do formed. Keep a count of the buckets of water poured till it overflows at the top of the brick wall.

    Measure the inside dimension and depth of the rectangular moat.
