RCC Roof Slab, Construction, Uses, Advantages, Disadvantages
Subject and UNIT: Basic Civil & Mechanical Engineering: UNIT III: g. Roofing
Flat Roofs are used to buildings of any shape. They are economical also. Flat roofs are of two types, namely, (i) Madras Terrace Roof and (ii) R.C.C. Flat Roof.
Requirements, Types
Subject and UNIT: Basic Civil & Mechanical Engineering: UNIT III: g. Roofing
Roof is a horizontal or sloping structural member provided as a cover to a building. intermediate floors are covered by horizontal R.C.C. slabs.
Functions, Classification, Effective Load
Subject and UNIT: Basic Civil & Mechanical Engineering: UNIT III: f. Beams, columns and lintels
Width of the lintel is equal to the width of the wall.
Definitions, Types, RCC, Steel Columns, Stanchions
Subject and UNIT: Basic Civil & Mechanical Engineering: UNIT III: f. Beams, columns and lintels
Column is a vertical structural member. It transmits the load from ceiling/roof slab and beam, including its self-weight to the foundation.

Subject and UNIT: Basic Civil & Mechanical Engineering: UNIT III: e. Masonry
Stone is a natural choice for masonry, if available in plenty. Its durability has been demonstrated in our temples and massive structures.
Terminology, Bonds in Brickwork and its Types, Principles
Subject and UNIT: Basic Civil & Mechanical Engineering: UNIT III: e. Masonry
Brick Masonry is defined as the systematic arrangement of bricks and bonding them together with Cement Mortar or Lime Mortar.
Civil Engineering
Subject and UNIT: Basic Civil & Mechanical Engineering: UNIT III: d. Superstructure
Definition: Masonry is defined as the art of construction in stone or brick bonded together with mortar. Mortar may be cement mortar or lime mortar.
Subject and UNIT: Basic Civil & Mechanical Engineering: UNIT III: a. Foundations for machines
Machine foundations are broadly classified into three types, namely, 1. Concrete Block Foundation, 2. Block and Trough foundation and 3. Framed Foundation.
Types, Requirements, Design Criteria
Subject and UNIT: Basic Civil & Mechanical Engineering: UNIT III: a. Foundations for machines
Machines produce dynamic forces in addition to the static forces. The design of foundations for machinery is therefore more complex than that for building structures.
Subject and UNIT: Basic Civil & Mechanical Engineering: UNIT III: a. Foundations or substructures
Unequal settlement of sub-soil is due to (i) Unequal resistance of the soil, (ii) Unequal loading per unit area of the foundation soil or (iii) Eccentric loading on the soil. This results in formation of cracks in the structure.
Uses, Types, Advantages, Classification
Subject and UNIT: Basic Civil & Mechanical Engineering: UNIT III: a. Foundations or substructures
The design and construction of Deep Foundations is a challenging job for a civil engineer. 'A foundation is said to be a Deep Foundation, when its depth is more than the width of the foundation.
