Plain cement concrete (PCC) is used as a base layer for construction. It provides a non-porous, rigid surface for laying reinforced cement concrete (RCC) on soft soil. PCC is used for leveling and as a base for footings, grade slabs, and roads. Anti-termite treatment involves applying soil treatment chemicals during construction to provide a barrier against termites. It must be done by specialized agencies and is most effective when the chemical is properly chosen and applied. Stone masonry uses stone units bonded with mortar for building components where stone is abundant locally, such as columns, footings, and architectural features, providing an economical construction material.

CONCRETE

2.  Plain Cement Concrete (PCC) is
also called as Cement Concrete
(CC) or Blinding concrete.
 It is used for leveling, bedding for
footings, grade slabs, concrete
roads etc.
 PCC is used to provide non-porous,
rigid, impervious, firm and leveled
bed for laying RCC, where earth is
soft and yielding.

4.  Anti termite treatment is a process
in which soil treatment is applied
to a building in early stages of its
construction.
 The purpose of anti termite
treatment is to provide the
building with a chemical barrier
against the sub terrain termites.
 Executed through specialized
agencies only
 The pre constructional soil
treatment is required to be
applied during the construction
stages of the sub - structure up to
plinth level.
 The effectiveness of chemical
depends upon the choice of the
chemical, the dosage adopted
and the thoroughness of
application.
Anti Termite Treatment

6.  Stone masonry is made of stone units
bonded together with mortar, where the
stones are available in a abundance in
nature, they provide an economical
material for the construction of various
building components such as columns,
footings, arches, lintels, beams etc.
 USES:
 Building foundations, walls, piers,
pillars, and architectural works
 Lintels, beams, arches domes etc
 Roofs and roof coverings
 Cladding works,
 Dams, Monumental structures
STONE MASONRY

7. General Principals
 The stones to be used for stone
masonry should be hard, tough and
durable,
 The pressure acting on stones should
be vertical
 The Stones should be perfectly
dressed as per the requirements
 The heads and bond stones should
not be of a dumbbell shape
 The mortar to be used should be
good quality and in the specified
faces
 The construction work of stone
masonry should e raised uniformly

8.  The plumb bob should be used to
check the verticality of erected
wall
 The Masonry work should be
properly cured after the
completion of work, for a period
of 2 to 3 weeks
 As far as possible broken stones
or small stones chips should not
to be used in construction
 Double scaffolding should be
used for working at higher level
 The properly wetted stones
should be used to avoid mortar
moisture being sucked
