What is bar bending schedule in RCC?
Why we provide Anchor Bar in a single RC beam?
Anchor bars are the bars which are given on compression side to hold the stirrups or lateral reinforcements and the main bars.

On-site generally, I heard these two terms capping beam and ground beam, so What is the difference between these two?
There is a minor difference between ground beams and capping beams Ground Beams are provided between the pile caps, it provides structural stability and provide strength to a foundation While Capping Beams ties all piles together and helps to distribute load of superstructure to the substructure. ItRead more
There is a minor difference between ground beams and capping beams Ground Beams are provided between the pile caps, it provides structural stability and provide strength to a foundation While Capping Beams ties all piles together and helps to distribute load of superstructure to the substructure. It has the same function as pile caps, in addition to distribute the load of the superstructure.

Hi,
Substitute frame method is used for the analysis of complex structure I.e multi-storeyed building because analysis of multi-story building is very complicated and long calculations needed. Substitute frame method used for sudden analysis and gives approximate values.
The moment distribution method is used for the analysis of applied loads on the structure in the substitute frame method. This method is generally used to determine the vertical loads and horizontal loads. Vertical load is a combination of live load and dead loads
This method is applied only or vertical loads.
Dead loads include self-weight of slab column and beams which is analysed in substitute frame method.
In this method, the beams which are at floor level as well as the columns above the floor and below which are situated at the fixed far end will be e analysed. In some cases the bending moment is not distributed over the far end, thus the moment is computed independently at each floor and retained on that floor for further analysis.

The vertical movement in foundations is caused by : Either downwards movement of the wall or wall footing, when a wall footing sinks in soft soil. An up and down movement of the wall or wall footings such as when a wall is disturbed by frost in a freezing climate Expansive clay soils expand or shrinRead more

Bar bending schedule (BBS) is a comprehensive, detailed list of reinforcement bars to be used in an RCC construction along with their number, location, mark, type, size, lengths, details in correspondence with the drawings. It also includes the timing for the bending of each bar, and that is why it’s called a bending schedule.
Bars are needed to be bent in order to give them the desired reinforcement shape. Stirrups and anchorages are two places where bar bending is compulsory. In addition, when we need to join bars, we might want to bend them on the ends before welding or fastening.
BBS also gives a clear and logical understanding as to how much bars of what sizes will be needed to be procured and bent by what time so that no delay, all procurement is done with minimal transport expenses, and all bending is done with minimal machine and labor costs.
