    Hi,

    In simple words, detailing of composed mint is necessary for the structural steel and also for 10 force concrete structures to attend strength and durability. The figure is attached with shows the joining details of beams and columns.

    The main parts of them should be cracked near the columns and the length. It is in the ratio of 1:4. Any other cases the beam re pass must not pass from the column rebars outer surface which comprises the concrete cover.

    Instead of detailing the above different detailings are the wind for rehabilitation and strengthening the damaged elements.

    Sir, Basically slope morphology impacts road drainage and ultimately road stability. Therefore we can placed culvert in each draw. Side slope for rural road where embankment height is less than 3m should be 1:3

    When the sufficient strength is attained for the long span concrete structures to support their self weight, creep deflection may occur in these structures if propping is not provided after the removal of formwork. Hence repropping is carried out after removing formwork and thus these props should not be allowed to stand too long because creep loads may overstress them.

    Yes, you can do that. These are called hung columns. These are columns, having no foundation/ footing, rest over beams, or slabs. These are also termed as hanging columns/ floating column.

    1. Yes, you can do that. These are called hung columns. These are columns, having no foundation/ footing, rest over beams, or slabs. These are also termed as hanging columns/ floating column.
    2. They can not transfer load directly to the foundation or footing. Load from these columns is the point load on the beam over which it rests.These beams are generally deep beam need high percentage of reinforcement, also termed as transfer beam. Load is transferred through the transfer beam to the supporting columns, ultimately to the foundation.
    3. These columns are designed to take vertical load , considering it a compression member.
    4. These are abundantly provided to get more space in the ground floor to keep provisions for parking, conference hall, architectural requirement , banquet hall in hotels, commercial building etc.These are also provided in intermediate floor for the similar purpose.
    5. These columns are designed for vertical load only. In earthquake prone areas these may prove unsafe. If at all provided, they will not take lateral forces, all seismic forces shall be taken by the main columns supporting the transfer beam.
    6. Reinforcement detailing is an important issue in the design of column- beam junction.
