Foundation reinforcement

One of the most basic steps in the construction of a concrete structure is the reinforcement and implementation of its foundation. The design and implementation of the foundation is very important because the strong foundation of a structure depends on its strong and stable foundation, therefore, great care must be taken in its implementation. Reinforcement is actually the formed bars that are used to strengthen the strength of concrete, and reinforcement is the process of stacking these reinforcements next to each other. This process is carried out in specific steps and has very important points that you should be fully familiar with. To reinforce the arrangement of rebars in specific dimensions and sizes, we need silencers made of reinforcement, which are made by using reinforcement wire. are connected to each other. Usually, the reinforcement of the foundation is done in different shapes and sizes according to the number of floors of the building and its size. The process of implementing the structure is mainly done by the plan that has been designed in advance. in which all specifications and implementation methods are mentioned.

What is foundation concreting?

Foundation concreting can be considered the most important step in the construction of any building. If the standard principles are not properly followed in the implementation of the foundation of a structure, the building will not receive a pass grade in terms of safety; Even if the highest quality building materials are used in its implementation. One of the most important steps in implementing the structure’s foundation is concreting.

Usually, due to the fact that the concreting of the foundation of the building is done in a large volume and size, special devices such as mixers are used to prevent the mixing of concrete from drying out, as well as ground pumps to inject concrete with the appropriate pressure into the mold.

The speed of concreting should be such that compaction can be done before the concrete dries. Usually, the interval between the time of concrete preparation and the end of concreting should not last more than 60 minutes. Concrete pouring should be done in favorable weather conditions (without rain and too cold air).

Molding and concrete column

Concreting columns is one of the most important steps in building construction. Columns in the building have the task of transferring the load of their upper floors to the foundation or roof below. It is better not to do this from a height of more than 1.2 meters when concreting the columns. Because it causes separation of concrete granulation, which will decrease the quality of concrete. Knowing the exact details of the concreting process and observing the points that must be observed during concreting will increase the quality of concrete. In buildings with concrete structure, the column consists of rebar and concrete. Concrete should be in such a way that when pouring and setting, it maintains its paste state and easily fills the space between the rebars. After this step, vibration should be done. This is done by a vibrator. To remove the air bubbles from the concrete, it is better to keep the vibrator upright and slowly remove it from the concrete.
