March 12, 2024 3 Asked a question What are the disadvantages of RCC?Reinforced Concrete (RCC) has several disadvantages, including: 1. Cracking: RCC is susceptible to cracking due to factors like shrinkage, temperature variations, and structural loads. Cracks can compromise... January 24, 2024 2 Asked a question Why under reamed piles are used?Under-Reamed Piles are widely used for different types of soils such as sandy soils, clayey soils and also expansive soils. Under-Reamed Piles are required to be taken down to a certain depth because of... January 22, 2024 2 Asked a question How to determine the liquid limit of soil?Take representative soil sample of approximately 120 gms passing through 425 micron IS sieve and mix thoroughly with distilled water in the evaporating dish to a uniform paste. The paste shall have a consistency... January 11, 2024 2 Asked a question What is shear failure in soil?Soil shear can be described as one layer or portion of soil moving over or with respect to another layer of soil. The interface between the two layers of soil can be abrupt and well defined, such as when... January 11, 2024 2 Asked a question What is the difference between shear stress and shear strength?When we apply some force on a body, the body has a tendency to resist the applied force. So stress is the resistive force developed in a body per unit area. Shear stress is resistive force developed per... January 11, 2024 2 Asked a question What is a GPS survey?A GPS survey, also known as a Global Positioning System survey, is a method used to determine precise positions and locations on the Earth's surface using GPS technology. The Global Positioning System... January 11, 2024 2 Asked a question What is the purpose of pedestals in column isolated footing?A pedestal transfers the load from the column to the footing, which is below the ground surface such that the metal of the column i.e. reinforcement does not come in direct contact with the footing. Since... January 11, 2024 2 Asked a question What type of steel reinforcement must be used in areas under seismic zone?The major reason of buildings collapsing due to earthquakes is the breaking of reinforcement bars without crossing their ultimate tensile strength. The amount of seismic energy crossing the rebars is the... January 11, 2024 2 Asked a question What is Corrosion resistance steel?Due to extreme environmental exposure, presence of acidic impurities in air as well as water and other environmental factors, the steel in reinforcement bars constantly gets corroded with time. Such chemical... January 11, 2024 2 Asked a question What is the use of steel reinforcement bars in concrete?Concrete is weak in tension and brittle, but has reasonable compressive strength,. By combining steel bars to take the tension and concrete to take the compression reinforced concrete can be used to build... January 11, 2024 2 Asked a question What are Atterberg limits used for?The Atterberg limit refers to the liquid limit and plastic limit of soil. These two limits are used internationally for soil identification, classification, and strength correlations. December 30, 2023 2 Asked a question How to calculate the liquid limit?The following steps outline how to calculate the Liquid Limit. First, determine the plastic limit. Next, determine the plasticity index. Next, gather the formula from above = LL = PL – PI . Finally,... December 30, 2023 2 Asked a question What is the penetrometer test for liquid limit?Based on the relationship between the moisture content and the penetration of a cone into a soil sample, the cone penetrometer test method for liquid limit provides an immediate value of penetration.... December 30, 2023 2 Asked a question What apparatus is used to test the liquid limit of soil?What apparatus is used to test the liquid limit of soil? December 30, 2023 2 Asked a question How do you calculate liquidity index of soil?It can be calculated as a ratio of difference between natural water content, plastic limit, and liquid limit: LI=(W-PL)/(LL-PL) where W is the natural water content. December 30, 2023 2 Asked a question Why do we determine the liquid limit of soil?Why do we determine the liquid limit of soil?
