The document summarizes the construction process of columns for a seven storied residential building. It describes the process of forming kickers, placing reinforcement bars, shuttering, casting, and curing concrete columns. It provides details on the types and sizes of columns constructed, reinforcement details, and estimates of required construction materials. Laboratory and field tests were conducted to ensure quality of materials and construction methods.

3. INTRODUCTION
In this presentation we will try to present our 4 month’s practicum
experience of the construction work of a seven storied residential building.
We observed the construction process of super structural parts of a
reinforced concrete building.
Here we have focused on mainly column, stair, beam and slab construction
process.

36. Number of Column: 1 NO
Height of the column: 8.25 ft.
Column Dimension: 1.0×1.5 ft. Or (12”X18”)
Total Volume: (1×1.5×8.25) = 12.40 cu. ft.
Dry Volume: 12.40 ×1.5 =18.56 cu. ft.
Mixing Ratio = 1:1.5:3
Water/Cement ratio = 0.4
Concrete Calculation:
Cement= (Dry Volume x Cement
ratio)/Summations of ratio
Sand = (Dry Volume x Sand
ratio)/Summations of ratio
Stone = (Dry Volume x Stone
ratio)/Summations of ratio
So, Cement = 3.0 bags
Sand = 5.0 cu. ft.
Stone = 11 cu. ft.
Reinforcement Calculation:
20mm & 16mm bar = 1× ((6×10×.75) +
(4×10×.48)) = 64.2 kg.
10mm bar = 1×19×7×.19 = 25.27 kg.

81. Problem-1: During the column casting, liquid of concrete mix came out
from the form of column due to leakage in formwork or improper
shuttering of column.
Solution: We alert the labor about the leakage on the column Shutter and
said to used jute tap properly which can protect the leakage on shutter.
Problem and Solution

82. Problem-2: Column C-3, after
removing the shuttering there are
honeycomb on the column which can
occur due to improper vibration.
Problem and Solution (Continued)
Fig: Honeycomb in column

Solution: We suggest the labor to fill the
honeycomb by cement paste. Then they
filled the place by cement paste and
make plain by rubbing the jute tap.

83. Problem-3: In beam FB-2, Stirrup spacing is changed and being some
transverse during the placement of beam.
Problem and Solution (Continued)
Fig: Changed spacing in stirrup

85. During our practicum period we are face some problems and our
recommendation are:
There are no working schedule in the construction site. Company should
have work schedule for every project . Maintain work schedule properly
can save cost.
The management should aware of the safety. A little training and care can
prevent accidents in the project.
Company should need to do some test like slump test, cylinder test etc.
Some test like this can ensure the strength able construction.

86. We have supervised beam, slab, stair & column construction work. After
supervising our construction site, We have learned about beam, slab, stair &
column construction and achieved practical experience. We have also learned
construction management. It was an awesome experience dealing with
different types of people at construction site. It seems to me that the practical
knowledge is the most essential to be an efficient engineer. I tried to give my
full afford as trainee engineers. Overall the internship program laid sound
foundation for us to start our career.
