DO Follow the schemes given in Formwork manual strictly and avoid misuse of components. Apply form work releasing agent to the form work surface,to prevent absorption of water from concrete and adhesion of concrete and damage when shuttering is removed. The form work releasing agent should be applied before reinforcement is fixed in position. Provide tight joints use foam sheets to prevent leakage of grouts. Remove shuttering slowly and avoid sudden application of load. Allow specified time before removing shuttering.Follow the deshuttering time specified in contract / Indian standards.

Property
using bars of negative tolerance effective savings in cost can be achieved. (The design & construction is based on specific theoretical bar diameter, but the bars are supplied by weight)
If
the bars are with plus weight, it means reduced geometrical properties of ribs, which in turn reduces the bond between concrete & steel. And also leads to increase in the project cost.
TMT BARS
Enhancement of rebar strength is achieved by Thermo Mechanical Treatment as a part of rolling process. The bar is rapidly cooled / quenched in high-pressure water jacket / spray system as it emerges from the finishing strand of the rolling mill. This quenching process the surface layer to hardened structure called Martensite & while the core remains comparatively hot and Austenitic. Tempering begins as the bar leaves the water cooling section. The heat supplied from the core tempers outer Martensite layer. The core Austinitic transforms to a ductile Ferrite Pearlite core. The finished bar has a grain structure comprising a Tough outer layer & ductile core which imparts excellent yield strength with superior ductility.
TMT bars contain lower carbon content & thus exhibit better ductility & weldability (can be butt welded or lap welded) TMT bars have better yield strength, tensile strength, and elongation than CTD bars of same grade. TMT bars display easy bendability and thus requires less energy for bending & rebending alongwith superior reverse bending properties. They possess in built ability to resist loss of strength when exposed to higher temperatures. They display better corrosion resistance than CTD bars due to absence of cold twisting stresses. TMT bars are also available in higher strength levels than those listed in the Indian Standard. Use of Fe 500 grade TMT bars can result in saving of more than 15% in steel consumption when compared to CTD bars.

REINFORCEMENT COVER
Cover to reinforced concrete member is the minimum thickness of concrete provided over the reinforcement steel measured from the exposed concrete surface to the closest reinforced steel. The role of concrete in the cover region can be compared to the role human skin plays in protecting the flesh & other parts of the body. Concrete in the cover region protects steel reinforcement in two ways: By providing dense, strong, impermeable barrier against ingress of moisture, oxygen, chlorides, sulphates, carbon dioxide, & other aggressive gases & chemicals. By providing passive coating on steel surface. Due to alkaline nature of concrete, this coating prevents corrosion of steel.
PROTECTION OF REBARS
If the work is suspended for a longer period, then the dowel bars left in the first phase have to be protected. The protection can be done by the following methods
By applying a firm coat of neat cement slurry to the exposed reinforcement bars leaving no point untouched.
Reinforcement
DO
Conduct applicable tests for the reinforcement bars for every lot / as stipulated in the specification Store reinforcing bars under cover, until required to use, kept clear of mud, dirt and oil and preferably stacked by sizes on racks. Use only bars that are free from mud, dirt, oil, grease, paint, loose rust, mill scale and pitting due to corrosion, Slightly oxidized bars are not good for adhesion with concrete;
DONT Dont use bars with mud and dirt sticking to them. Mud and dirt can be easily washed off with water.
Dont use bars with oil, grease and paint sticking to them. These should first be dissolved in suitable solvents. Dont use bars with loose rust and mill scale. These can be removed with a wire brush.

PREPARATION OF CONCRETE
Measurement of Ingredients DO CEMENT Measure cement in units of 1 bag. ( Remember 1 bag of cement contains 50 Kg and has a volume of approximately 1 cft.) AGGREGATES
Volume batch.
Measure aggregates in gauge boxes for specified mixes of dimensions, in terms of volume of one cement bag. Gauge boxes should be made of good timber or sheet metal with lifting arms for hand mixing. Make allowance for bulking of sand when it is damp. Remember, sand may bulk up 30% of its volume when damp and unless allowance is made or this, the mix may be under sanded and consequently harsh and unworkable. If accurate information is not available an average bulking of 25% may be assumed i.e., the quantity of damp sand to be mixed should be 25% greater than the quantity of calculated quantity of dry sand.
Weigh batch. Incase of weigh batching the actual weight specified in approved mix design with suitable corrections shall be put in the concrete mixer.
MACHINE MIXING
DO Add the constituents of the mix as per the approved mixed design. DONT
Dont mix concrete on bare ground. Dont add extra quantity of water to achieve workability as this may result in reduced concrete strength.
PLACING CONCRETE
DO Place concrete in position before initial set occurs i.e., within 30 minutes of mixing. Fill all nooks and corners in formwork, surround all reinforcement with concrete using tamping rods or vibrators. Place concrete in horizontal layers ( 6 to 12 deep for R.C. work and 15 to 18 for mass concrete work) each of which should be compacted properly, before subsequent layers are placed. Place each layer before the previous layer has hardened, except, of course, where concreting of the previous layer was stopped at the end of the days work. In fact concrete placing should be continued without interruptions until the placement is completed to avoid intermittent cold joints.
DONT Dont place concrete during rains unless proper cover can be provided. Dont drop concrete from a height greater than 5 feet; to avoid segregation. Dont use concrete in which initial set of cement has already started.
CURING
What is Curing? Curing is the process of preventing loss of moisture from the concrete while maintaining a satisfactory temperature regime. Why curing is required? Concrete in its early life needs to be carefully looked after like parents looking after their newborn baby. If the concrete is not nurtured properly by carrying out the required curing & protected against wind & extreme ambient conditions, then the structure will loose its strength, & durability, the concrete will behave like a child born weak.
METHODS OF CURING
Water cure by flooding, ponding, mist spray. Water retaining method By using absorptive coverings such as sand, canvas, burlap or straw that are kept continuously wet. By mechanical barriers. By using chemical membranes.
2.For concrete having blended cements like Portland pozzolana cement, Portland slag cement or mineral admixtures - Minimum 10 days. This may be extended to 14 days. 3. For concrete exposed to dry & hot weather conditions
- Minimum 10 days.
CURING
DO Keep all surfaces of newly laid concrete damp for 7 days. Damping can be done in several ways; by hosing or sprinkling of water; by wet sacking or matting ; by ponding of horizontal surfaces with raised edges in weak mortar and filling I 2 depth of water ; or by laying 2 3 thick layers of sand kept soaked in water. DONT Dont neglect curing. It is better to over cure than to under-cure. Undercuring results in loss of strength which is irreparable ; and water is cheap.
CONSTRUCTION JOINTS
Construction joints are surfaces where two successive placements of concrete meet. They are typically placed at the end of the days work. But may also be required when the concrete placement is stopped for longer than the initial setting time of concrete. The location of construction joints should be planned. It may be desirable to achieve bond & continue reinforcement through a construction joint. For monolithic concrete, a good construction joint might be a bonded interface that provides a water tight surface & allows for flexural & shear continuity through the interface.
The main concern in joint placement is to provide adequate shear shear transfer & flexural continuity through the joint. Flexural continuity is achieved by continuing the reinforcement through the joint with sufficient length past the joint to ensure adequate splice length for the reinforcement. Shear transfer is provided by shear friction between old & new concrete or dowel action in the reinforcement through the joint.
Equipment-related causes Improper equipment Improper equipment maintenance Equipment failure (crane, pump, concrete plant) Interruption of utility service
Material-related causes Improper selection of release agent Cement characteristics Variation in mixture components Inappropriate use of admixtures Inappropriate use of release agents Environmental causes Extreme weather conditions
2- -Bugholes (Air surface voids) Bugholes on vertical faces are normally caused by air bubbles, but occasionally by water entrapped between the concrete mass and the form, especially in sticky or stiff concrete mixtures of low workability which may have an excessive sand and/or entrapped air content. Also, the use of vibrators of too large an amplitude or the lack of complete insertion of the vibrator head may result in increased air-void formation.
3--Form-streaking Form-streaking is caused by mortar leaking through form joints and may be aggravated by over vibration from vibrators that are too powerful, or by using forms that vibrate excessively during consolidation. Placing excessively wet or high-slump concrete mixtures will result in more mortar washing out through tie holes and loose fitting forms. Special care is sometimes required when superplasticizers are used, as they tend to increase leakage at form joints and in pump lines. 4 --Aggregate transparency Aggregate transparency is a condition characterized by a mottled coloring on the surface which results from deficiencies in the mortar. It may result when concrete mixtures have low sand content, dry or porous aggregates, or high slump with some lightweight and normal weight aggregates. Also, high density or glossy form surfaces may cause aggregate transparency.
5--Subsidence cracking Subsidence cracking results from the development of tension when the concrete settles after or near initial set. The cracks are caused because the upper concrete bridges between the forms while the lower concrete settles. These cracks may occur when there is an insufficient interval between placement of concrete in columns and placement of concrete for slabs or beams. They may also occur adjacent to block outs or over reinforcing bars with shallow cover. To prevent subsidence cracking, the concrete can be revibrated. Revibration is most effective when done at the latest time at which the vibrator head will penetrate the concrete under its own weight. Subsidence cracking over reinforcing bars can be controlled by increasing concrete cover during the design phase and by using wellconsolidated, low-slump concrete.
6--Color variation Color variation may occur within a placement if the concrete is not uniform or is incompletely mixed. Vibrators inserted too close to the form destroy the release agent or mar the form surface. External vibration used haphazardly may also cause color variation. Furthermore, color variations may result from nonuniform absorption and/or nonuniform application of the release agent. 7 --Sand streaking Sand streaking is a streak of exposed fine aggregate in the surface of the formed concrete caused by heavy bleeding along the form. It frequently results from the use of harsh, wet mixtures, particularly those deficient in 0.30 to 0.15 mm and smaller sizes. Sand streaking is controlled by the use of tight forms and proper mixture proportioning, using well-graded fines to minimize bleeding.
8- -Layer lines
Layer lines are dark horizontal lines on formed surfaces which indicate the boundary between concrete placements. Layer lines are caused by stiffening or insufficient consolidation of the lower level due to lack of penetration of the vibrator into the lower level.
9- -Form offsets Form offsets are usually caused by inadequate stiffness or anchorage of the forms and can be aggravated by too high a rate of placement and/or using too powerful a vibrator. 10--Cold joints Cold joints frequently occur in concrete for many reasons. Cold joints can often be avoided by contingency planning, back-up equipment, working to keep the concrete surface alive, and working to vibrate into lower lifts.
