Tension members can fail due to three modes:
1. Gross section yielding, where the entire cross-section yields
2. Net section yielding, where the reduced cross-section after subtracting holes yields
3. Block shear failure, which also occurs in welded connections along planes of shear and tension
The design strength is the minimum of the strengths from these three failure modes. Block shear is demonstrated using a failed gusset plate connection with failure planes around the weld. The problem determines the tensile strength of a plate connected to a gusset plate, calculating the strength based on gross section yielding, net section yielding, and block shear failure.
This document discusses several special concreting techniques:
- Pumped concrete is concrete that can be pushed through a pipeline and must have a design that prevents blockages.
- Shortcrete or gunite is a mortar or fine concrete pneumatically projected at high velocity, used for thin sections with less formwork.
- Underwater concrete requires special mixes placed via bagging, buckets, tremie pipes, or grouted aggregates to prevent water intrusion.
- Other techniques include pre-packed concrete placed underwater and special considerations for hot/cold weather concreting. Proper mix design and placement methods are essential for successful implementation of special concreting applications.

The intersection of railway track and the road at the same level is referred to as a level crossing. In the urban areas the level crossing is generally monitored by qualified railway personnel who monitor the train movement and close the level crossing gate to stop the interfering road traffic but such closing of gates leads to congestion in road traffic and also causes loss of time to road users. Road under bridge and road over the bridge are considered as solutions for avoiding level crossings of roads and railway track.
The document discusses composite construction using precast prestressed concrete beams and cast-in-situ concrete. It describes how the two elements act compositely after the in-situ concrete hardens. Composite beams can be constructed as either propped or unpropped. Propped construction involves supporting the precast beam during casting to relieve it of the wet concrete weight, while unpropped construction allows stresses to develop under self-weight. Design and analysis of composite beams involves calculating stresses and deflections considering composite action. Differential shrinkage between precast and in-situ concrete also induces stresses.

Requirements are adjusted for samples less than 30m3 or a single sample for small works.
Cement tests can be divided into field tests and laboratory tests. Laboratory tests include fineness test, standard consistency test, setting time test, compressive strength test, soundness test, and tensile strength test. The fineness test measures the mean size of cement grains and finer cement results in earlier strength development but more shrinkage and cracking. The standard consistency test determines the percentage of water required to form a cement paste using a Vicat apparatus. The setting time test uses the Vicat apparatus to detect when cement paste reaches its initial and final set. The compressive strength test forms cement mortar cubes which are tested at 3 and 7 days to determine strength. The soundness test uses a Le-Chatelier apparatus to
The document provides instructions for conducting pull-out tests to determine the compressive strength of concrete. It states that pull-out tests should be confirmed to BS 1881 Part 207 and give a direct tensile strength value. It describes how inserts can be cast into wet concrete or positioned in hardened concrete using an under-reamed groove. When testing, at least four pull-out tests should be performed at each location and a loading rate of 0.5 ± 0.2 kN/s should be used for 25mm diameter inserts. The compressive strength can then be calculated from the direct tensile strength value obtained during testing.
Non-Destructive Testing of Concrete In Structures26032015
Ultrasonic pulse velocity testing, rebound hammer testing, and cover meter testing are three common non-destructive testing methods for concrete structures. Ultrasonic pulse velocity testing uses transducers to transmit and receive ultrasonic pulses through concrete to assess properties like strength and uniformity without damage. Rebound hammer testing measures surface hardness through a spring-controlled hammer's rebound, indicating relative concrete strength. Cover meters use electromagnetic principles to locate and measure rebar cover thickness in concrete. Non-destructive testing provides important information on structural condition and performance without damaging the structure.

Structural elements like slabs, beams, columns, footings, and staircases will be designed according to code specifications using the working stress method.
1) The study tested 4 reinforced self-compacting concrete beams to analyze the effect of construction joints on structural performance.
2) The beams included a reference beam without a joint, and beams with horizontal, vertical at mid-span, and vertical at 1/4 span joints.
3) Test results showed construction joints had a more significant effect on ultimate load than first crack load. The horizontal joint beam performed best with a 6.7% reduction in first crack load and 26.7% reduction in ultimate load compared to the reference beam. The vertical 1/4 span joint beam performed worst with reductions of 16.7% and 56.2% respectively.
Every industry focus to build and improve the
chimney to create the eco-friend organization as well as to
satisfy the strict environmental board.
IS: 4998 criteria for design of reinforced concrete chimneys
is using working stress method for chimney designing.
There are some limitations of working stress method. Also
the designing is difficult involving lengthy, cumbersome
and iterative computational effort.
So we should recognize this problem and we should use
some time saving techniques like interaction envelopes to
optimize the structural design.
Chimneys with various heights from 65m to 280m are
analyzed and designed by working stress method and limit
state method for collapse and comparison of results are
discussed in this paper. Generation of interaction curves for
hollow circular section is also discussed in this paper.

The document discusses concrete filled steel tube (CFST) columns under axial compressive loads. It summarizes that CFST columns have higher load capacity than hollow steel tubes due to the composite action between steel and concrete. Experimental tests were conducted on circular and square CFST columns with varying concrete grades and heights. The results showed that square CFST columns had higher load capacity than circular columns. Ultimate load also increased with higher concrete grade. Failure modes included local and overall buckling. CFST columns provide advantages like increased strength, reduced construction costs, and improved fire resistance compared to reinforced concrete columns.
