Figure 1 Strip Foundation (Chudley and Greeno 2005‚ p.63‚ figure 2.2.1) A strip foundation is a continuous‚ longitudinal strip of concrete‚ which is designed to spread the load of the building through the walls to the subsoil below. As shown in the figure above‚ the projection beyond the face of the wall should be at least the thickness of the foundation‚ to comply with the building

creations‚ they all came from basic materials‚ one of them were concrete. You might think it was just some normal concrete‚ but it was different from the concrete we have today. The concrete from ancient Rome were made with slaked lime‚ volcano ash and volcanic rocks also known as pozzolana. The concrete was surprisingly better than the concrete we use today because the concrete from the past was more environmentally friendlier then modern concrete‚ it also endure chemical decay and last even longer when

CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Introduction of Research Steel-reinforced concrete is a widely used structural material. The effectiveness of the steel reinforcement depends on the bond between the steel reinforcing bar and the concrete. Reinforced concrete is a composite material in which concrete ’s relatively low tensile strength and ductility are counteracted by the inclusion of reinforcement having higher tensile strength and ductility. The reinforcement is usually‚ though not necessarily

Can Water Damage Concrete? Concrete is among the most useful substances ever produced. Mixed and used well‚ it produces a very durable material that’s perfect for constructing buildings and other structures. Science‚ however‚ has other ideas. While many may consider concrete very sturdy‚ its biggest enemy seems somewhat benign in comparison: water. Industry experts such as AlliedFinishes.com offer good proof. In commercial settings‚ buildings like warehouses and large-scale kitchens often feature

Concrete vs. Steel Structures: In the past‚ the world of construction of buildings was based on wood‚ adobe‚ thatch and cave dwellings as construction materials or units. Modern engineering has developed to use the steel‚ concrete as basic elements of construction. Nowadays‚ there is a worldwide debate about which material of those two does reign supreme in the world of development. Most importantly‚ concrete and steel have different mechanical properties which cause a different behavior under
