10. CHAPTER 3 DETAILS OF FIELD
STUDY3.1DETAILS OF STRUCTURE: 1. The height of the
structure is 99.5mts. 2. The structure consists of 2 wings
(wing-A and wing-B). 3. Two wings are separated by an
inaccessible partition wall in every floor throughout the
structure. 4. Each wing consists of 4 flats in each floor
totalling 8 flats per floor. 5. The lake verandahs consist of 27
floors totalling 216 flats in them. 6. Apart from the 27 floors
there are 2 subsurface floors designed for parking purpose. 7.
These subsurface floors are well protected by retaining walls
with height varying from 8-12m . 8. A stilt lobby level is also
provided. 9. Each wing consists of 4 lift wells and 2 stair
cases Figure 3.1 a plan describing placement of lift wells and
stair cases in wing-A 10

12. 3.2PROCESS OF LAYING A SLAB: In this all the
sophisticated equipments are used to finish the work in easy
andsimple method. The thickness of each slab is 20cm and
between 2 wings a strip is not castedimmediately but casted
after 25 days known as Expansion strip. The steel rods used
inconstruction are THERMAX STEEL from Germany. Also
shaft spaces are provided in slab for plumbing work Figure

Figure 3.6, 3.7 describes work of electrical conduting and cup
locks support After framing using shutter boards filmed with
shuttering oil, electricalconduting will be done, here cup locks
are used to support the frame, and then concrete ispoured over
the frame with the help of hydraulic jack and concrete pipes
which are used topump the concrete from transit mixer to the
place where slab has to be laid. To preventcoagulation inside
pipes, first a cream slurry cement paste has to be passed
through pipes forsmooth flow of concrete 12
13. Tower cranes are used to move the required material
from one place to other insite both vertically and horizontally.
The tower cranes can with held the wind force up toheight of
30m, beyond which they need to be clamped to nearby
column of building forsupport.Each tower crane costs about
Rs.95 lakhs Figure3.8 view of the tower crane from the site
office3.3BATCHING PLANT:M40 concrete mix is used here
for the construction of structure. A separate batching plant
ispresent near the site for the construction of lake verandahs
and hill crest structures. Figure 3.9 batching plant with a
transit mixer 13
14. Figure 3.10, 3.11 describes the control panel and closer
look to batching plant respectively. A Transit mixer is used to
transfer concrete from batching plant to the work site.It carries
around 7cubic mtr volume of concrete and takes about 15 min
to load.The main components of batching plant are Control
panel Silos Cement storage godown Small tower crane for
pushing ingredients into mix using trayThe batching plant
consists of silos which are used to store flyash and chemicals

&quality control lab): In this lab the quality and strength of
various building materials like cement, sand,concrete, water,
coarse aggregate are tested using various testing machines and
apparatus like vicat apparatus, Compression testing machine

of various columns from below ground surface 16
17. Figure 3.16, 3.17 describes frame work for column
concreting and tor rings respectively. Columns are laid under
utmost care. steel rods are firmly placed and theseare
connected using different types of TOR RINGS with the help
of binding wire. About 8Tor rings are provided at spacing in
every column. Basically tor rings are of different typeslike
rectangular, square type, triangular, trapezoidal used for
connecting various amount ofsteel rods.tie rod, ropes are used
to place the shutters firmly around the column where
theconcrete is to be laid. Once the shutter is firmly placed then
the concrete is filled manually till0.5 mtr in order to avoid
HONEY COMBING. M40 grade concrete is used for

7. layingcolumns. The date on which concreting is done to a
column is written on column so that carehas to be taken to
cure it for 14 days 17
18. Figure3.18 the checklist for column concreting Prior to
concreting of a column it should fulfil all the requirements of
thechecklist for the column concreting ,it checks all the
activities and should meet theacceptance criteria after
checking the report will be signed by Foreman, Site engineer
andSector engineer before giving a nod to concreting 18

safety nets tied around the building edges Figure 3.25 the
following items are provided as per ISO safety norms. 22
23. CHAPTER 4 CONCLUSIONS From the field study
report, it is evident that the construction is going on full
swing, butfrom according to the project monitoring chart, the
project is lagging behind the schedule fora period of about 6
months. As dated on 1st june2012 the construction for slab for
3th floor is going on and stillabout 24 floors are to be
constructed. The schedule to hand over the project is dated
forJanuary, 2014 at the earliest. To accomplish this task the
work should be done in 2 batches of workforce throughoutthe
day and the developers should lend more financial support
than present. Gracing the Hulimavu Lake, this most
happening realty destination for the elite will bea self-
sufficient and all encompassing community where its
residents will prosper forever. 23
