UNIT NO 3: DESIGN OF REINFORCED CONCRETE SLAB 3.1 INTRODUCTION Reinforced concrete slabs are used in floors, roofs and walls of buildings and as the decks of bridges. The floor system of a structure can take many forms such as in situ solid slab, ribbed slab or pre-cast units. Slabs may span in one direction or in two directions and they may be ...

Then slowly concrete is poured into the tremie. Once it is filled, the tremie is lifted by a very little amount allowing the concrete to flow out. This concrete will gradually move up with all the mud and impurities at the bottom of the pile. Then again tremie is filled with concrete and allow concrete to flow out.

For lightweight aggregate concrete, the values for modulus of elasticity and tensile strength given in the Table should be multiplied by a factor equal to [oven dried density/2200] 2.For example, the modulus of elasticity of a lightweight aggregate concrete of strength class 25/30 and oven dry density 1850 kg/m 3 should be taken as 31 x [1850/2200] 2 = 21.9 GPa.

ACI 318- Structural concrete building code suggests that the elastic modulus (Ec) for concrete shall be calculated by the formula given below: Ec = 33 Wc^1.5 √ fc ----- …

Reinforced concrete. Concrete has relatively high compressive strength, but significantly lower tensile strength.As a result, without compensating, concrete would almost always fail from tensile stresses (Stress (mechanics)#Mohr's circle) even when loaded in compression.The practical implication of this is that concrete elements subjected to tensile stresses must be reinforced with materials ...

fcu, k——Standard value of compressive strength of concrete cubes（N/mm2）, fcu,k=20（N/mm2）; After calculation: fcu,0=20+1.645×5.00=28.23（N/mm2） Notice: JavaScript is required for this content.

The value of Elastic modulus at 28 days of concrete age is given in BS 8110: Part II 1985: Where: ko: is 20 KN per square millimeter for normal weight concrete. fcu,28: concrete compressive strength at 28 days. 5. Modulus of Elasticity Based on IS 456.

The mechanical properties of concrete are dependent on many factors, such as the characteristics of the raw materials used, the curing conditions and the local concrete practice, which may vary from place to place. The mechanical properties measured in other places cannot be directly applicable to Hong Kong.

1. Introduction. Lightweight concrete (LWC) is a versatile material that has created a great interest and large industrial demand in recent years in a wide range of construction projects, despite its known use dated back to 2000 years.LWC is a concrete, which by one means or another has been made lighter than conventional (normal weight aggregate) concrete (El Zareef, 2010, Babu, 2008).

RE: Shear Modulus of Concrete. structSU10 (Structural) 17 Apr 13 08:12. typically it follows G = E/2 (1+v) in the elastic region, but once the concrete cracks there is a great reduction in the shear modulus. There is a paper "Post-cracking shear modulus of reinforced concrete membrane elements" on science direct that discusses this.

The concrete cube has a compressive strength of "fcu". Among them, "cu" means cube. The standard value of the cubic compressive strength is expressed by "fcu,k", where "k" means the standard value.

For a given humidity and temperature, the total shrinkage of concrete is most influenced by the total amount of water present in the concrete at the time of mixing and to a lesser extent by the cement content. As per Clause 6.2.4.1 of IS 456:2000, The approximate value of the total shrinkage strain for design may be taken as 0.0003.

Punching shear is a failure mechanism when structural elements subjected to concentrated load. Failure occurs in perimeter defined away from the concentrated load.
