Prestressed concrete construction Prestressed concrete Prestressed concrete is a method for overcoming concrete’s natural weakness in tension. It can be used to produce beams‚ floors or bridges with a longer span than is practical with ordinary reinforced concrete. Prestressing tendons (generally of high tensile steel cable or rods) are used to provide a clamping load which produces a compressive stress that balances the tensile stress that the concrete compression member would otherwise

SACHIN JAIN SONABH DHARIWAL VARUN GOEL [pic] INTRODUCTION: Ready-mix concrete is a type of concrete that is manufactured in a factory or batching plant‚ according to a set recipe‚ and then delivered to a worksite‚ by truck mounted transit mixers. This results in a precise mixture‚ allowing specialty concrete mixtures to be developed and implemented on construction

object thereby strengthening it. The idea of pretensioned concrete has been around since the late 19th century‚ but its use was limited by the quality of materials available at the time. It wasn’t until the 1920s that materials of a suitable quality were available in sufficient quantity to allow pretensioned concrete to be used with confidence. The pioneers of this field were Freyssinet‚ Magnel and Hoyer. Description: In pre-tensioned concrete tensile elements such as cables‚ ribbons‚ or rods are clamped

Most people knows that solids control is important for the oilfeild drilling industry‚but less people knows the working principle of solids control equipment. Solids control is a technique that uses combined equipment for drilling rigs to separate the solids in the drilling fluids that are crushed by the drill bits and carried out of the well to the surface. The solids control equipment contains five stages‚which including mud tanks‚shale shakers‚vacuum degassers‚ desanders‚ desilters and

POLYMER COCNCRETE 1. Introduction Despite being thought of as a modern material‚ concrete has been in use for hundreds of years. The word concrete comes from the Latin concretus‚ which means “mixed together” or compounded. Concrete is an extremely popular structural material due to its low cost and easy fabrication. Concrete is made up of sand or stone‚ known as aggregate‚ combined with cement paste to bind it. Aggregate can be of various sizes. It is broadly categorized as fine (commonly
