beam bottom is first laid on the column and then slab formwork
is laid

KEY IN COLUMN
since the height of column is very large,
hence it is not possible to cast the column at
one time, to cast the column later the key is
made at the junction so that the proper bond
between the old concrete and new concrete is
formed.
KEY IN COLUMN
EXPANSION JOINT
Since concrete is subjected to volume change. Provision must
be made to cater for the volume change by way of joint to
relieve the stresses produced.
Expansion joint is function of length
Buildings longer than 45 m are generally provided with one or
more expansion joints.
Material used as expansion joint material is armour board
whose thickness is 25 mm.
EXPANSION JOINT

material, size is 25 mm

WATER BAR
Similarly when the drainage pipes are laid along with the outer wall
then again the connection between the pipe and the wall has
different coefficient of temperature change hence they are joint to
the concrete by lead keys.
In the toilets and kitchen sunken portion the joints in any case are
packed by water proof and non shrinkable material.
BINDING MATERIALS
For water proofing in garden area the soil is first leveled and
then rammed to achieve the maximum density
The PCC is then laid down mixed with tape Crete (a water
proofing compound)
After PCC the plaster of fibrous material is done.
the bituminous sheets are laid by heating it with the welder. On
those sheets the drainage pipes are laid down with suitable
slope and these pipes are covered with geo-fabric sheets.
Again the plaster is done. On the plaster the 40 mm aggregates
are laid.
On the aggregate the geo-fabric sheets are laid down on which
the sand is placed & on the sand the soil ,along with fertilizers,
is placed on which the gardening is done for the non tower area.

INTRODUCTION/BENEFITS
Post-tensioning is a method of reinforcing (strengthening)
concrete or other materials with high-strength steel strands or
bars, typically referred to as tendons
