REINFORCEMENT
3.1) Introduction
Steel reinforcements are used, generally, in the form of bars of circular
cross section in concrete structure. They are like a skeleton in human
body. Plain concrete without steel or any other reinforcement is strong
in compression but weak in tension. Steel is one of the best forms of
reinforcements, to take care of those stresses and to strengthen
concreteto bear all kinds of loads
Mild steel bars conforming to IS: 432 (Part I) and Cold-worked steel
high strength deformed bars conforming to IS: 1786 (grade Fe 415 and
grade Fe 500, where 415 and 500 indicate yield stresses 415 N/mm2
and 500 N/mm2 respectively) are commonly used. Grade Fe 415 is
being used most commonly nowadays. This has limited the use of plain
mild steel bars because of higher yield stress and bond strength
resulting in saving of steel quantity. Some companies have brought
Page 14
SUMMER INTERNSHIP REPORT Sobha Ltd
thermo mechanically treated (TMT) and corrosion resistant steel (CRS)
barswith added features.
Bars range in diameter from 6 to 50 mm. Cold-worked steel high
strength deformed bars start from 8 mm diameter. For general house
constructions, bars of diameter 6 to 20 mm are used Transverse
reinforcements are very important. They not only take care of
structural requirements but also help main reinforcements to remain
in desired position. They play a very significant role while abrupt
changesor reversal of stresses likeearthquakeetc.
They should be closely spaced as per the drawing and properly tied to
the main/longitudinalreinforcement

3.2 Terms used in Reinforcement
3.2.1) Bar-bending-schedule
Bar-bending-schedule is the schedule of reinforcement bars prepared in
advance before cutting and bending of rebars. This schedule contains
all detailsof size, shape and dimension of rebars
Page 16
SUMMER INTERNSHIP REPORT Sobha Ltd
3.2.2) Lap length
Lap length is the length overlap of bars tied to extend the reinforcement
length.. Lap length about 50 times the diameter of the bar is considered
safe. Laps of neighboring bar lengths should be staggered and should
not be provided at one level/line. At one cross section, a maximum of
50% bars should be lapped. In case, required lap length is not available
at junction becauseof spaceand other
constraints, bars can be joined with couplers or welded (with correct
choiceof method of welding).
.2.3) Anchorage Length
This is the additional length of steel of one structure required to be
inserted in other at the junction. For example, main bars of beam in
column at beam column junction, column bars in footing etc. The length
requirement is similar to the lap length mentioned in previous question
or as per the design instructions
Page 17
SUMMER INTERNSHIP REPORT Sobha Ltd
3.2.4)Cover block
Cover blocks are placed to prevent the steel rods from touching the
shuttering plates and there by providing a minimum cover and fix the
reinforcements as per the design drawings. Sometimes it is commonly
seen that the cover gets misplaced during the concreting activity. To
prevent this, tying of cover with steel bars using thin steel wires called
binding wires (projected from cover surface and placed during making
or casting of cover blocks) is recommended. Covers should be +0made of
cement sand mortar (1:3). Ideally,cover should have strength similar to
the surrounding concrete, with the least perimeter so that chances of
water to penetrate through periphery will be minimized. Provision of
minimum covers as per the Indian standards for durability of the whole
structureshould be ensured.
Shape of the cover blocks could be cubical or cylindrical. However, cover
indicates thickness of the cover block. Normally, cubical cover blocks
Page 18

are used. As a thumb rule, minimum cover of 2” in footings, 1.5” in
columnsand 1” for other structuresmay be ensured

Testing of steel:
The steel that arrives at the site should be visibly checked for any discrepancies.
Deformed, severely corroded, cracked and split bars should be rejected.
Samples should be taken for lab tests such as:
 Rolling margin test (to determine the weight per unit length of steel)
 Bend and re-bend test (to determine the ability of the metallic materials to
undergo Plastic deformation in bending)
Normal by reinforcement fittmistakesers:
 Spacing of the bar differ
 Each alternate junction of bars is not tied with binding wires.
 Direction not proper, Column base is not tied to footing mesh.
 COLUMNS
 Initially a stirrup has to be tied to the mat by monitoring the marking as
shown.
 Then column rods are placed on the mat according to the specification.
 Anchorage length for main rods should be 25d or 300mm as shown.
 Corner rods must be placed 45o inclined to column axis as shown, for
proper distribution of load.
Things to Note
Reinforcement should be free from loose rust, oil paints, mud etc. it should be cut,
bent and fixed properly. The reinforcement shall be placed and maintained in
position by providing proper cover blocks, spacers, supporting bars, laps etc.
Page 20
SUMMER INTERNSHIP REPORT Sobha Ltd
Reinforcements shall be placed and tied such that concrete placement is possible
without segregation, and compaction possible by an immersion vibrator.
For any steel reinforcement bar, weight per running meter is equal to d*d/162 Kg,
where d is diameter of the bar in mm. For example, 10 mm diameter bar will weigh
10×10/162 = 0.617 Kg/m
Three types of bars were used in reinforcement of a slab. These include straight
bars, crank bar and an extra bar. The main steel is placed in which the straight
steel is binded first, then the crank steel is placed and extra steel is placed in the
end. The extra steel comes over the support while crank is encountered at distance
of ¼(1-distance between the supports) from the surroundings supports.
For providing nominal cover to the steel in beam, cover blocks were used which
were made of concrete and were casted with a thin steel wire in the center which
projects outward. These keep the reinforcement at a distance from bottom of
shuttering. For maintaining the gap between the main steel and the distribution
steel, steel chairs are placed between them
Weight of rebar per meter length = D2/162 …Kg/m, where ‘D’ diameter of the bars.
Structural members are of two types:
1. Compression member
2. Tension member
1) Compression Members
Ex: Column, Retaining Wall etc.
2) Tension Members
Ex: Beam, Slab etc.

3.3 SHUTTERING/FORMWORK:-
The ‘SHUTTERING’ or ‘FORMWORK’ includes all forms, moulds, sheeting, shuttering
planks, walrus, poles, posts, standards, ledgers, V-Heads, struts, and structure, ties,
walling steel rods, bolts, wedges, and all other temporary supports to the concrete
during the process of sheeting. Formworks are generally made by the timber,
plywood, steel, etc.
On our site, for columns, walls, Beams, staircase standard quality Plywood sheets
are used and for raft foundation GI sheets are used and for slabs Flat plate system
are used.
Fig: formwork column fig: shuttering of slab
MAINLY GUIDENCE USED FOR CREATING OFTHE SHUTTERING:-
 All marking of formwork first of should be completed. Then the shuttering
boards, which are ready for use, are placed along the marking.
Page 22
SUMMER INTERNSHIP REPORT Sobha Ltd
 Using a spirit level, the inner side of the plywood, Plywood are mainly
checked in vertically.
 For column, column starter is fixed to make sure that the column is located at
the right place and Starters are mainly used in steel.
 In case of retaining wall to keep both sides fixing bolt is provided using
gauge plate, tie rod and for column tie rod is provided, which pass through
the concrete..
 Foam strip should be placed between the boards to prevent slurry loss during
concreting.
 Plumb bob should be fixed on the external sides to check the verticality
during quality checking.
 In case of formwork of slab the level is checked by instrument likes; Tape,
Water Level Pipe, theodolite, Line Thread and spirit level meter.
FORM WORK
Forms or moulds or shutters are the receptacles in which concrete is placed, so that
it will have the desired shape or outline when hardened. Once the concrete develops
adequate strength, the forms are removed. Forms are generally made of the
materials like timber, plywood, steel, etc.
Generally camber is provided in the formwork for horizontal members to
counteract the effect of deflection caused due to the weight of reinforcement and
concrete placed over that. A proper lubrication of shuttering plates is also done
before the placement of reinforcement. The oil film sandwiched between concrete
and formwork surface not only helps in easy removal of shuttering but also
prevents loss of moisture from the concrete through absorption and evaporation.
Page 23
SUMMER INTERNSHIP REPORT Sobha Ltd
The steel form work was designed and constructed to the shapes, lines and
dimensions shown on the drawings. All forms were sufficiently water tight to
prevent leakage of mortar. Forms were so constructed as to be removable in
sections. One side of the column forms were left open and the open side filled in
board by board successively as the concrete is placed and compacted except when
vibrators are used. A key was made at the end of each casting in concrete columns
of appropriate size to give proper bondings to columns and walls as per relevant IS.
CLEANING AND TREATMENTOF FORMS
All rubbish, particularly chippings, shavings and saw dust, was removed from the
interior of the forms (steel) before the concrete is placed. The form work in contact
with the concrete was cleaned and thoroughly wetted or treated with an approved
composition to prevent adhesion between form work and concrete. Care was taken
that such approved composition is kept out of contact with the reinforcement.
DESIGN
The form-work should be designed and constructed such that the concrete can be
properly placed and thoroughly compacted to obtain the required shape, position,
and levels subject
Page 24
SUMMER INTERNSHIP REPORT Sobha Ltd
ERECTION OF FORMWORK
The following applies to all formwork:
a) Care should be taken that all formwork is set to plumb and true to line and level.
b) When reinforcement passes through the formwork care should be taken to
ensure close fitting joints against the steel bars so as to avoid loss of fines during
the compaction of concrete.
c) If formwork is held together by bolts or wires, these should be so fixed that no
iron is exposed on surface against which concrete is to be laid.
d) Provision is made in the shuttering for beams, columns and walls for a port hole
of convenient size so that all extraneous materials that may be collected could be
removed just prior to concreting.
e) Formwork is so arranged as to permit removal of forms without jarring the
concrete. Wedges, clamps, and bolts should be used where practicable instead of
nails.
f) Surfaces of forms in contact with concrete are oiled with a mould oil of approved
quality. The use of oil, which darkens the surface of the concrete, is not allowed.
Oiling is done before reinforcement is placed and care taken that no oil comes in
contact with the reinforcement while it is placed in position. The formwork is kept
thoroughly wet during concreting and the whole time that it is left in place.
Page 25
SUMMER INTERNSHIP REPORT Sobha Ltd
Immediately before concreting is commenced, the formwork is
carefully examined toensure the following:
a) Removal of all dirt, shavings, sawdust and other refuse by brushing and washing.
b) The tightness of joint between panels of sheathing and between these and any
hardened core.
c) The correct location of tie bars bracing and spacers, and especially connections of
bracing.
d) That all wedges are secured and firm in position.
e) That provision is made for traffic on formwork not to bear directly on
reinforcement steel.

CONCRETING:-
Cement concrete is a mixture of inert materials like fine
aggregates and coarse aggregates with cement, water and admixtures. It is in a
plastic state when it is fresh and can be moulded into desired shape, and attains
desired strength upon hardening to take up static and dynamic loads.
Cement:
Cement is composed by the calcium silicates, aluminates and alumina ferrite.
It is obtained by blending predetermined proportion lime stone clay and other
minerals in small quantities which is pulverized and heated at high temperature
around 1500 deg centigrade to produce “clinker”. When we mix the small quantity
of gypsum in clinker which are produce to fine powder. This fine powder is known
as cement.
Water cement ratio:
Water required for cement proper mixing for it, application in
various civil work. The weight of water is divided by the weight of cement is called
water cement ratio.
Weight of Water/Weight of Cement = 0.5
Admixture:
Admixture are added to concrete to its preparation, so as to impart certain
special characteristics to concrete; like fly ash, water proofing agents retarders, etc
is called admixture.
Aggregate:
The aggregate are divided into two types, these are
1. Coarse aggregate 2. Fine Aggregate
1) Fine Aggregate:
Fine Aggregate is less than 4.75 mm. which is passed through 4.75 IS
Sieve is termed as fine aggregate. Fine aggregate is added to concrete to assist workability
and to bring uniformity in mixture. fine aggregates shall be such that not more than 5
percent shall exceed 5 mm in size, not more than 10% shall IS sieve No. 150 not less than
45% or more than 85% shall pass IS sieve No. 1.18 mm and not less than 25% or more than
60% shallpass IS sieveNo.600 micron.
Page 29
SUMMER INTERNSHIP REPORT Sobha Ltd
2) Coarse Aggregate:
Coarse Aggregate should be hard, strong, dense, durable,
clean,and free from clay or loamy admixtures or quarry refuse or vegetable
matter. The pieces of aggregates should be cubical, or rounded shaped and
should have granular or crystalline or smooth (but not glossy) non-powdery
surfaces.

unloading the concrete, and sequences were explained to the
concrete incharges of both Basil and Beryl.
Tools & Materialsrequired:
1) Slump cone with tamping rod.
2) Cube mould of 150X150mm size.
3) Wheel barrow.
4) Spanner.
5) Trowel.

FIG: Slump cone with tamping rod.,Cube mould of 150X150mm
size.,Wheel barrow,Spanner. Trowel.,Putty blade to finish.
Step by step procedure:
1) The first step before unloading any concrete is to check the Batching sheet. Check
the Batching sheet for Grade of concrete and also ensure that the Material
proportion is as per the Design mix.
2) Run the Trail mixer for 2 to 3 minutes before unloading the concrete.
3) Before placing the concrete in position take some quantity of concrete for slump
test.
4) Keep the slump cone fitted to its base plate with bolt on a leveled surface.
5) Pour the concrete on to the slump cone in 3 layers, each layers will be compacted
using Tamping rod by giving each layer 25 blows from tamping rod
Page 34
SUMMER INTERNSHIP REPORT Sobha Ltd
FIG: SLUMP TEST
6) Level the top surface of the cone by removing extra concrete and also the base
should be cleaned from split concrete
7) Loosen the slump cone by loosening the bolt at base.
8) Now slowly lift the Slump cone (Straight).
9) After lifting the slump cone immediately observe the slump i.e. the height of fall
of concrete compared to the height of cone is observed and noted down.
Slump for various concrete should be as follows:
For Dumping concrete:50mmto 90mm
For Pumping concrete:90mm to 120mm
For Mivan concreting:90mmto180mm
Cube Casting:
3) Fix the cube mould of size 150mmX150mm using nut & bolt at base and
corners, Then apply the oil to the inner surface of the mould to avoid any
sticking of concrete to the surface.
Page 35
SUMMER INTERNSHIP REPORT Sobha Ltd
4) Take the concrete sample to be molded from the wheel barrow and cast the
cube in three layers,
5) Each layer will be compacted by using tamping rod with 25 blows and
tamping the sides of the cube with a hammer.
Page 36
SUMMER INTERNSHIP REPORT Sobha Ltd
6) Top surface will be finished smoothly and after concrete sets for 2 to 3 hours
the naming of cubes will be done and after 24 hours the cubes will be
immersed in water.
Conclusion/Recommendation:
Slump test is very important work to be carried out before unloading the concrete
and the cube casting plays very important role in concrete industry to determine its
strength.
COMPACTION:
COMPACTION IS THE PROCESS OFDENSIFICATION OFSOIL MASS BY THE
APPLICATOIN OFDYNAMICLOAD
COMPACTION EQUIPMENTS:
1) Compaction layer thicknessshould not exceed 30cm and
compaction should commenceat the edges and progresstowards

CURING FOR BASEMENT FLOORING
PREVIOUS METHOD:
The VDF flooring needs to be cured many times a day,since the
water evaporates from the surface.
There was no existingpracticeto retain the water used for curing
on the VDF floorings.
NEW METHOD:
Instead of curing the VDF flooring many times a day due to the loss
of water from the surface,the new method is to cover the concrete
surface with LDPE sheetafter the final setting time of10 hours and
cure it. By this, one time curingcould be achieved.This will save
the labour cost,curing bandcostetc. The LDPE sheetwill retain
the water over it and helps in effective curing throughoutthe day.

3) After completionall beam reinforcementwork tie the 25mm thick
cover block in the bottom at every 1 to 1.5mtlength of beam and
now check weatherthe columnstirrups provided till slab levelif not
provide the stirrups before downing the beam.
4) Beam reinforcementwill be downed in such a way that the
reinforcementsits approximately at the middleof the beam
shuttering(Cover for both face).
5) Now start with the slab reinforcement.
6) Firstmarkthe reinforcementalignmenton the shutteringin main
rod direction.
7) Lay the main reinforcementover the slab shuttering and cover
block of 15mm
Spread overthe slab.
8) Now mark the secondary slab reinforcementon the mainslab
reinforcementthen tie these secondary reinforcementto the main
reinforcement.
9) Providethe chairs to accommodatesecond layer of
reinforcement(Top extra) at both side of the beam if required.
10) Provide one Stirrup atslab level and another one at 1mtabove
the slab levelto
maintain the proper positioningof the column main reinforcement.
11) Ensure thatthe column reinforcementlappinglengthwill be
availableabovethe slab level,since itis not possibleto lap the

CONCLUSION
In Internship, I have learned a lot about the present scenario in the field of
Civil Engineering System. I have gained sufficient knowledge about the
technology used by the company. In our College Curriculum we learn most of
the things theoretically, which do not provide sufficient information about the
concerned subject in depth, and students remain unaware of the problems and
errors when they go into the field. This practical training has provided us the
knowledgeaboutvarioustechnologiesin the CIVIL Engineering field.
I am highly grateful and obliged to the SOBHA LTD. Family for their
support and guidancefor the successful completion of my Internship.

  • 13. Page 13 SUMMER INTERNSHIP REPORT Sobha Ltd REINFORCEMENT 3.1) Introduction Steel reinforcements are used, generally, in the form of bars of circular cross section in concrete structure. They are like a skeleton in human body. Plain concrete without steel or any other reinforcement is strong in compression but weak in tension. Steel is one of the best forms of reinforcements, to take care of those stresses and to strengthen concreteto bear all kinds of loads Mild steel bars conforming to IS: 432 (Part I) and Cold-worked steel high strength deformed bars conforming to IS: 1786 (grade Fe 415 and grade Fe 500, where 415 and 500 indicate yield stresses 415 N/mm2 and 500 N/mm2 respectively) are commonly used. Grade Fe 415 is being used most commonly nowadays. This has limited the use of plain mild steel bars because of higher yield stress and bond strength resulting in saving of steel quantity. Some companies have brought
  • 14. Page 14 SUMMER INTERNSHIP REPORT Sobha Ltd thermo mechanically treated (TMT) and corrosion resistant steel (CRS) barswith added features. Bars range in diameter from 6 to 50 mm. Cold-worked steel high strength deformed bars start from 8 mm diameter. For general house constructions, bars of diameter 6 to 20 mm are used Transverse reinforcements are very important. They not only take care of structural requirements but also help main reinforcements to remain in desired position. They play a very significant role while abrupt changesor reversal of stresses likeearthquakeetc. They should be closely spaced as per the drawing and properly tied to the main/longitudinalreinforcement

Page 15 SUMMER INTERNSHIP REPORT Sobha Ltd Fig : providing reinforcement in slab 3.2 Terms used in Reinforcement 3.2.1) Bar-bending-schedule Bar-bending-schedule is the schedule of reinforcement bars prepared in advance before cutting and bending of rebars. This schedule contains all detailsof size, shape and dimension of rebars
  • 16. Page 16 SUMMER INTERNSHIP REPORT Sobha Ltd 3.2.2) Lap length Lap length is the length overlap of bars tied to extend the reinforcement length.. Lap length about 50 times the diameter of the bar is considered safe. Laps of neighboring bar lengths should be staggered and should not be provided at one level/line. At one cross section, a maximum of 50% bars should be lapped. In case, required lap length is not available at junction becauseof spaceand other constraints, bars can be joined with couplers or welded (with correct choiceof method of welding). .2.3) Anchorage Length This is the additional length of steel of one structure required to be inserted in other at the junction. For example, main bars of beam in column at beam column junction, column bars in footing etc. The length requirement is similar to the lap length mentioned in previous question or as per the design instructions
  • 17. Page 17 SUMMER INTERNSHIP REPORT Sobha Ltd 3.2.4)Cover block Cover blocks are placed to prevent the steel rods from touching the shuttering plates and there by providing a minimum cover and fix the reinforcements as per the design drawings. Sometimes it is commonly seen that the cover gets misplaced during the concreting activity. To prevent this, tying of cover with steel bars using thin steel wires called binding wires (projected from cover surface and placed during making or casting of cover blocks) is recommended. Covers should be +0made of cement sand mortar (1:3). Ideally,cover should have strength similar to the surrounding concrete, with the least perimeter so that chances of water to penetrate through periphery will be minimized. Provision of minimum covers as per the Indian standards for durability of the whole structureshould be ensured. Shape of the cover blocks could be cubical or cylindrical. However, cover indicates thickness of the cover block. Normally, cubical cover blocks
  • 18. Page 18 SUMMER INTERNSHIP REPORT Sobha Ltd are used. As a thumb rule, minimum cover of 2” in footings, 1.5” in columnsand 1” for other structuresmay be ensured Structural element Cover to reinforcement (mm) Footings 50 Columns 40 Slabs 20 Beams 25 Retaining wall 25 for earth face 20 for other face Chairs: Chairs are used for slabs and it should be placed just before concreting, to avoid any deformation or displacement of the top bars due to human traffic on the slab.

  • 19. Page 19 SUMMER INTERNSHIP REPORT Sobha Ltd Testing of steel: The steel that arrives at the site should be visibly checked for any discrepancies. Deformed, severely corroded, cracked and split bars should be rejected. Samples should be taken for lab tests such as:  Rolling margin test (to determine the weight per unit length of steel)  Bend and re-bend test (to determine the ability of the metallic materials to undergo Plastic deformation in bending) Normal by reinforcement fittmistakesers:  Spacing of the bar differ  Each alternate junction of bars is not tied with binding wires.  Direction not proper, Column base is not tied to footing mesh.  COLUMNS  Initially a stirrup has to be tied to the mat by monitoring the marking as shown.  Then column rods are placed on the mat according to the specification.  Anchorage length for main rods should be 25d or 300mm as shown.  Corner rods must be placed 45o inclined to column axis as shown, for proper distribution of load. Things to Note Reinforcement should be free from loose rust, oil paints, mud etc. it should be cut, bent and fixed properly. The reinforcement shall be placed and maintained in position by providing proper cover blocks, spacers, supporting bars, laps etc.

Page 20 SUMMER INTERNSHIP REPORT Sobha Ltd Reinforcements shall be placed and tied such that concrete placement is possible without segregation, and compaction possible by an immersion vibrator. For any steel reinforcement bar, weight per running meter is equal to d*d/162 Kg, where d is diameter of the bar in mm. For example, 10 mm diameter bar will weigh 10×10/162 = 0.617 Kg/m Three types of bars were used in reinforcement of a slab. These include straight bars, crank bar and an extra bar. The main steel is placed in which the straight steel is binded first, then the crank steel is placed and extra steel is placed in the end. The extra steel comes over the support while crank is encountered at distance of ¼(1-distance between the supports) from the surroundings supports. For providing nominal cover to the steel in beam, cover blocks were used which were made of concrete and were casted with a thin steel wire in the center which projects outward. These keep the reinforcement at a distance from bottom of shuttering. For maintaining the gap between the main steel and the distribution steel, steel chairs are placed between them Weight of rebar per meter length = D2/162 …Kg/m, where ‘D’ diameter of the bars. Structural members are of two types: 1. Compression member 2. Tension member 1) Compression Members Ex: Column, Retaining Wall etc. 2) Tension Members Ex: Beam, Slab etc.

Formworks are generally made by the timber, plywood, steel, etc. On our site, for columns, walls, Beams, staircase standard quality Plywood sheets are used and for raft foundation GI sheets are used and for slabs Flat plate system are used. Fig: formwork column fig: shuttering of slab MAINLY GUIDENCE USED FOR CREATING OFTHE SHUTTERING:-  All marking of formwork first of should be completed. Then the shuttering boards, which are ready for use, are placed along the marking.
  • 22. Page 22 SUMMER INTERNSHIP REPORT Sobha Ltd  Using a spirit level, the inner side of the plywood, Plywood are mainly checked in vertically.  For column, column starter is fixed to make sure that the column is located at the right place and Starters are mainly used in steel.  In case of retaining wall to keep both sides fixing bolt is provided using gauge plate, tie rod and for column tie rod is provided, which pass through the concrete..  Foam strip should be placed between the boards to prevent slurry loss during concreting.  Plumb bob should be fixed on the external sides to check the verticality during quality checking.  In case of formwork of slab the level is checked by instrument likes; Tape, Water Level Pipe, theodolite, Line Thread and spirit level meter. FORM WORK Forms or moulds or shutters are the receptacles in which concrete is placed, so that it will have the desired shape or outline when hardened. Once the concrete develops adequate strength, the forms are removed. Forms are generally made of the materials like timber, plywood, steel, etc. Generally camber is provided in the formwork for horizontal members to counteract the effect of deflection caused due to the weight of reinforcement and concrete placed over that. A proper lubrication of shuttering plates is also done before the placement of reinforcement. The oil film sandwiched between concrete and formwork surface not only helps in easy removal of shuttering but also prevents loss of moisture from the concrete through absorption and evaporation.
  • 23. Page 23 SUMMER INTERNSHIP REPORT Sobha Ltd The steel form work was designed and constructed to the shapes, lines and dimensions shown on the drawings. All forms were sufficiently water tight to prevent leakage of mortar. Forms were so constructed as to be removable in sections. One side of the column forms were left open and the open side filled in board by board successively as the concrete is placed and compacted except when vibrators are used. A key was made at the end of each casting in concrete columns of appropriate size to give proper bondings to columns and walls as per relevant IS. CLEANING AND TREATMENTOF FORMS All rubbish, particularly chippings, shavings and saw dust, was removed from the interior of the forms (steel) before the concrete is placed. The form work in contact with the concrete was cleaned and thoroughly wetted or treated with an approved composition to prevent adhesion between form work and concrete. Care was taken that such approved composition is kept out of contact with the reinforcement. DESIGN The form-work should be designed and constructed such that the concrete can be properly placed and thoroughly compacted to obtain the required shape, position, and levels subject
  • 24. Page 24 SUMMER INTERNSHIP REPORT Sobha Ltd ERECTION OF FORMWORK The following applies to all formwork: a) Care should be taken that all formwork is set to plumb and true to line and level. b) When reinforcement passes through the formwork care should be taken to ensure close fitting joints against the steel bars so as to avoid loss of fines during the compaction of concrete. c) If formwork is held together by bolts or wires, these should be so fixed that no iron is exposed on surface against which concrete is to be laid. d) Provision is made in the shuttering for beams, columns and walls for a port hole of convenient size so that all extraneous materials that may be collected could be removed just prior to concreting. e) Formwork is so arranged as to permit removal of forms without jarring the concrete. Wedges, clamps, and bolts should be used where practicable instead of nails. f) Surfaces of forms in contact with concrete are oiled with a mould oil of approved quality. The use of oil, which darkens the surface of the concrete, is not allowed. Oiling is done before reinforcement is placed and care taken that no oil comes in contact with the reinforcement while it is placed in position. The formwork is kept thoroughly wet during concreting and the whole time that it is left in place.
  • 25. Page 25 SUMMER INTERNSHIP REPORT Sobha Ltd Immediately before concreting is commenced, the formwork is carefully examined toensure the following: a) Removal of all dirt, shavings, sawdust and other refuse by brushing and washing. b) The tightness of joint between panels of sheathing and between these and any hardened core. c) The correct location of tie bars bracing and spacers, and especially connections of bracing. d) That all wedges are secured and firm in position. e) That provision is made for traffic on formwork not to bear directly on reinforcement steel. CHECKLIST FOR VERTICAL FORMWORK:  Formwork components have been arranged as per approved drawing and finish for concrete.  Approved drawings are available of the erected formwork.  Diagonal Dimension of the columns has been checked.(Corners are at right angle)  Tie rods are in proper place and in tight position according to the drawing.  In case of wall All sides are in the straight line along horizontal direction.  No faulty material has been used.  The face of Formwork is clean and shuttering oil is applied properly on the form.  Proper scaffolding is made for pouring of concrete around the Formwork.

It is in a plastic state when it is fresh and can be moulded into desired shape, and attains desired strength upon hardening to take up static and dynamic loads. Cement: Cement is composed by the calcium silicates, aluminates and alumina ferrite. It is obtained by blending predetermined proportion lime stone clay and other minerals in small quantities which is pulverized and heated at high temperature around 1500 deg centigrade to produce “clinker”. When we mix the small quantity of gypsum in clinker which are produce to fine powder. This fine powder is known as cement. Water cement ratio: Water required for cement proper mixing for it, application in various civil work. The weight of water is divided by the weight of cement is called water cement ratio. Weight of Water/Weight of Cement = 0.5 Admixture: Admixture are added to concrete to its preparation, so as to impart certain special characteristics to concrete; like fly ash, water proofing agents retarders, etc is called admixture. Aggregate: The aggregate are divided into two types, these are 1. Coarse aggregate 2. Fine Aggregate 1) Fine Aggregate: Fine Aggregate is less than 4.75 mm. which is passed through 4.75 IS Sieve is termed as fine aggregate. Fine aggregate is added to concrete to assist workability and to bring uniformity in mixture. fine aggregates shall be such that not more than 5 percent shall exceed 5 mm in size, not more than 10% shall IS sieve No. 150 not less than 45% or more than 85% shall pass IS sieve No. 1.18 mm and not less than 25% or more than 60% shallpass IS sieveNo.600 micron.

Step by step procedure: 1) The first step before unloading any concrete is to check the Batching sheet. Check the Batching sheet for Grade of concrete and also ensure that the Material proportion is as per the Design mix. 2) Run the Trail mixer for 2 to 3 minutes before unloading the concrete. 3) Before placing the concrete in position take some quantity of concrete for slump test. 4) Keep the slump cone fitted to its base plate with bolt on a leveled surface. 5) Pour the concrete on to the slump cone in 3 layers, each layers will be compacted using Tamping rod by giving each layer 25 blows from tamping rod
  • 34. Page 34 SUMMER INTERNSHIP REPORT Sobha Ltd FIG: SLUMP TEST 6) Level the top surface of the cone by removing extra concrete and also the base should be cleaned from split concrete 7) Loosen the slump cone by loosening the bolt at base. 8) Now slowly lift the Slump cone (Straight). 9) After lifting the slump cone immediately observe the slump i.e. the height of fall of concrete compared to the height of cone is observed and noted down. Slump for various concrete should be as follows: For Dumping concrete:50mmto 90mm For Pumping concrete:90mm to 120mm For Mivan concreting:90mmto180mm Cube Casting: 3) Fix the cube mould of size 150mmX150mm using nut & bolt at base and corners, Then apply the oil to the inner surface of the mould to avoid any sticking of concrete to the surface.
  • 35. Page 35 SUMMER INTERNSHIP REPORT Sobha Ltd 4) Take the concrete sample to be molded from the wheel barrow and cast the cube in three layers, 5) Each layer will be compacted by using tamping rod with 25 blows and tamping the sides of the cube with a hammer.
  • 36. Page 36 SUMMER INTERNSHIP REPORT Sobha Ltd 6) Top surface will be finished smoothly and after concrete sets for 2 to 3 hours the naming of cubes will be done and after 24 hours the cubes will be immersed in water.
