Trusses are used in roofs, floors, walls, and bridges to efficiently resist loads through axial member forces. They consist of various configurations like pitched roof, parallel chord, and trapezoidal trusses. Truss members can be rolled steel sections or built-up sections. Loads include dead, live, wind, and earthquake loads. Joints connect members and transfer axial forces, with gusset plates used when direct connection is not possible.

The document discusses different types of slabs used in construction. It defines a slab as a thin concrete structure used for flooring that can be square, rectangular or circular in shape. The main types discussed are: 1. Flat slab - A beamless slab constructed directly on columns for a simpler design. 2. Conventional slab - Supported by beams on columns, which can be one-way or two-way depending on load direction. 3. Sunken slab - Used below washrooms to hide pipes below the floor level. 4. Hallow core slab - A precast slab with voids that requires less concrete and provides service ducts.

Reinforced concrete columns and beams are important structural elements that carry compressive and bending loads respectively. Columns can be categorized as short or long based on their height-width ratio and as spiral or tied columns based on their shape. Beams are classified based on their supports as simply supported, fixed, continuous, or cantilever beams. The construction of RCC columns and beams involves laying reinforcement, forming the structure, and pouring concrete to create these load-bearing elements.

The document discusses several types of concrete slabs, including hollowcore slabs, hardy slabs, and waffle slabs. Hardy slabs use hollow concrete blocks to reduce weight and increase insulation. They are constructed by placing blocks in formwork, adding reinforcement in gaps, and pouring concrete. Waffle slabs contain square grids that create a waffle-like appearance. PVC trays are placed in formwork and concrete is poured, leaving hollow spaces. Waffle slabs can span longer distances than flat slabs and are lighter. Both hardy slabs and waffle slabs offer advantages of reduced weight and increased load capacity compared to conventional slabs.

Steel structures involve structural steel members designed to carry loads and provide rigidity. They are commonly used in high-rise buildings, industrial buildings, warehouses, and temporary structures due to their strength, light weight, and speed of construction. Advantages include quick construction, flexibility, and ability to take various shapes. Disadvantages are reduced strength at high temperatures and susceptibility to corrosion. Common structural steel frames include beam and column construction, trusses, space frames, shear wall frames, framed tube structures, and braced frames. Design must consider both gravity loads like dead and live loads, as well as lateral loads from wind and earthquakes.

Formwork is used to pour concrete into molds to form structures. It can be made from steel, wood, aluminum, or prefabricated forms. Good formwork is easy to remove, economical, leak-proof, rigid, durable, and provides smooth concrete surfaces. Formwork design considers categories like conventional, modern panel systems, and prefabricated modular systems. Steel, plywood, plastic, and aluminum are common materials. Proper bracing and erection sequences are needed to construct columns, beams, walls, stairs, and avoid failures during pouring.

This document provides information on various types of foundations used in construction, including isolated footings, grillage foundations, raft foundations, and rebar (reinforcing steel). Isolated footings are independent footings used to support single columns. Grillage foundations consist of steel beams in tiers to distribute loads over a large area for heavy structures. Raft foundations are concrete slabs that extend across a building footprint to spread loads. Rebar is steel reinforcement embedded in concrete to increase its tensile strength. The document discusses construction details and reinforcement for these foundation types.

Expansion and construction joints are necessary in concrete construction to prevent cracking due to concrete movement. Expansion joints allow concrete to expand and contract with temperature changes, and are incorporated in foundations, walls, roofs, and paving. They are carefully designed and located to mitigate stresses. Construction joints are used when concrete placement is stopped, such as due to equipment issues, and are incorporated into the planned joint layout. They require proper consolidation and curing. Both expansion and construction joints are used in slabs, columns, and masonry walls.

This document provides information on cast-in-place and pre-cast concrete, as well as different types of concrete slabs and floor systems. It defines cast-in-place and pre-cast concrete, compares their advantages, and provides details on useful information for each method. It also describes different types of concrete slabs - flat slab, flat plate, waffle slab, ribbed floor slab, and lift slab. Finally, it discusses different types of floor systems including metal decking and concrete floor systems.

1. Concrete beams, columns, slabs, walls and staircases were constructed on site using formwork and reinforcement bars. 2. For beams and columns, formwork was erected, reinforcement bars were installed, and then concrete was poured and allowed to cure. 3. Concrete slabs were either precast off site or cast in place using formwork, reinforcement, and concrete pouring and curing. 4. Walls were constructed using concrete bricks laid with mortar.

Temporary formwork is used in construction to support fresh concrete until it cures. There are different types of formwork materials including timber, steel, aluminum, fiberglass, and plywood. Factors like strength, rigidity, cost, and number of reuses vary between each type. Formwork design involves sheets, studs, ties, and other components configured for walls, beams, slabs, columns, and decks based on the structural element. Slipforming is a specialized technique where formwork is continuously lifted as concrete is placed, allowing vertical structures like chimneys to be built without side forms. This method was used to rapidly construct tall building cores and highway pavement.

Formwork is a temporary mold used to contain poured concrete until it cures and can support itself. It needs to be strong enough to support the weight of wet concrete and withstand pouring and compaction loads. New materials like steel and plastics are now used for formwork in addition to wood. Slipforming allows for continuous vertical pouring of concrete structures like building cores without relying on external support, by using a formwork that rises slowly on its own as concrete is added.
