Detailing of reinforcements in beams and slabs plays an important role in providing strength, durability and cost optimization. Reinforcement details of concrete beams and slabs should specify clearly about cover to reinforcement, length of reinforcement, curtailment of reinforcement, number and ...

Size and Quantity of Reinforcement for Building Works
Different sizes of reinforcement is required for different concrete members. Quantity of reinforcement per cubic meter of concrete and its suitable size is discussed.
Reinforcement Detailing in Beams According to IS 456-2000
Reinforcement detailing in beams Beam carries transverse external loads that cause bending moment, shear forces and in some cases torsion Concrete is strong in compression and very weak in tension. Steel reinforcement counter act tensile stresses in reinforced concrete beams. ...
Reinforcement Detailing of Reinforced Concrete Slabs
Reinforcement detailing of a slab is done based on its support conditions. Slab may be supported on walls or beams or columns. Slab supported directly by columns are called flat slab. Slab supported on two sides and bending takes place ...
Chloride Attack on Concrete Structures – Cause and Prevention
Chloride Attack on Concrete Structures is one of the most important phenomena we consider when we deal with the durability of concrete. Among all sources of failure of concrete structures, the chloride attack accounts 40% contribution. The main effect of chloride ...
List of Indian Standard Codes on Reinforcement
Indian Standard Codes on Reinforcement Details Below enlisted are the IS codes that is recommended for reinforcement detailing and guidance. IS:432- 1982: Mild steel & medium tensile steel bars and hard drawn steel wires for concrete reinforcement : Part-II -Hard drawn ...
Advanced Composite Materials (ACM)
Advanced Composite Materials (ACMs) can be defined as a combination of materials appropriately arranged using reinforcing fibers, carefully chosen matrixes, and sometimes auxiliary materials like adhesive core and other inserts. These combinations after proper manipulation and processing result in a ...
Specifications of Prestressing Steel in Prestressed Concrete
Specifications of Prestressing Steel in Prestressed Concrete For prestressed concrete members, the high-tensile steel, used generally, consists of wires, bars or strands. The high tensile strength of steel is generally achieved by marginally increasing the carbon content in steel in ...
