    ILD or Influence Line Diagram shows us the effect of a point load at some point on a structural member with respect to the position of the load.

    So, ILD tells us what and where would be the maximum effect of a load places at what location. So to visualize the worst-case scenario and best-case scenario and the variations I between, ILD is a comprehensive aid.

    The most common usage is in Bridges, rail tracks, and roads where loads are always pointed loads (axle loads) and always moving. Knowing when and how much will be the maximum effect like bending moment, shear force, etc. helps us set up the design values.

    Prestressing is now a must to have phenomenon in every mega project whether it includes flyovers or dam or anything.

    During prestressing operation at one end, frictional loses will occur and the prestressing force decreases along the length of tendon until reaching the other end. These frictional losses include the friction induced due to a change of curvature of tendon duct and also the wobble effect due to the deviation of duct alignment from the centerline.

    development length is the length that is needed to insert in the concrete so that can easily resist the force that is applied whereas anchorage length is the length of bar which is considered to be available when it is bended by some angle and it is provided at the support similarly, the developmentRead more

    development length is the length that is needed to insert in the concrete so that can easily resist the force that is applied

    whereas

    anchorage length is the length of bar which is considered to be available when it is bended by some angle and it is provided at the support

    similarly, the development length in the column will be the same as that of beam

    from the below image you can understand what I m saying about the development length and anchorage length of beam and column

    a Kicker is a 5-15cm advance that is given at the Column/Shear divider Base during the throwing of the section/establishment. It is given to guarantee that the directions of the section/divider are kept up consistently between the chunks and basically all through the structure.
    Casting of slab/ foundation, the covering for the segment can be fixed legitimately on the kicker to ensure column location and base alignment is precise.
    Its job is to keep away uneven steel cover and Column/wall alignment issues, which are practically difficult to correct once the concrete is cast and can be effortlessly distinguished/redressed by giving a kicker.
    An inappropriate practice related to the arrangement of the kicker is that a few contractual workers give a kicker after casting a slab, which includes an extra undesirable Construction columns near the base where the shear is maximum and hence is not advised.

    Walls, beams, columns, foundations etc can be called as primary or main load bearing components of a concrete building.

    Examples of secondary load bearing structures would be the lintels in masonry walls, the shelf angles that support finishes when they span over a window or other opening and there are other odd and ends that provide support or stabilization such as cross bracing in steel bar joist or structural elements used during the construction of the building.
