Objective and Significance: – This Test used to determine the compressive test of Red/Clay Bricks. Red Bricks are generally used for masonry work. It needs to posses desired compressive strength as some time load is directly transferred to masonry. In case of load bearing structure bricks masonry is used as load taking structure. Aim: –…
Physical Properties: Expansion : – Once embedded in the concrete, rebar must have a thermal coefficient that is as closely identical to the concrete’s as possible. In other words, they must expand and contract at the same rate. Why? Because concrete has weak tensile strength. Thus, spalling may occur if there is tension between the…
Types of Rebar: – Rebar is classified with material used for production and it’s further classifieds with it’s applications. 1. Carbon Steel Rebar Carbon steel rebar is the most common type of rebar used in residential and commercial projects. This alloy steel is exceptionally cost-effective and durable, but the carbon steel may not hold up…
