Machineries used in RE Wall

 So far you all have known that, how RE Wall construction is done and how they are installed. You might have known from the previous blogs. The panels, how are they casted and how the erection work is done. If you have not seen my previous blogs then you will understand nothing. First go and understand these articles by clicking on the link and then only you will understand here briefly. 

So, the type of machineries used in RE Walls are as follows :- 

  1. Hydra 
  2. Dumper 
  3. Grader 
  4. Roller 
  5. Falkland 
  6. JCB 
  7. Vibrator 
HYDRA 


Hydra is the most important machinery used in RE Wall. Without hydra, nothing work is possible to do. Because to lift the panels, you will need crane or hydra. After casting for demolding the panels, you will need hydra only and also for panel erection, hydra is only the main aim to lift the panels. So HYDRA is the heart of RE Wall. Without this machine you will have to wait for somedays for work. 

DUMPER 


Dumper is used for transportation, to bring the soil. aggregates etc. from other source. You might have visualized why dumper is used for and what's its purpose. Dumper is used in all types of construction work, i.e., for transportation or to bring the materials from other source to the site. Basically dumper is used for bringing sand, aggregates etc. 
In some sites dumper is used for bringing the excavated soil for different uses. There are lots of work can be done through dumper. You can't add it. But you might have visualize it the types of work can be done through this. 

GRADER 


Grader's main work is only for one thing, i.e., to distribute the soil uniformly in all sides. For any road-work construction, airport construction, RE Wall construction, you might have seen the work of grader. It distributes the excess amount of soil, to the sides uniformly. If a dumper dumps the soil or soil level is high than the required level, you can use the grader to distribute the soil or cut the soil to make it uniform respectively. 

ROLLER 


What's about to say for this machine. You all know, that this machine is used for compaction. In RE Wall also, after distribution of soil by grader or by JCB or by some other machines, roller is used for compaction. Here pneumatic tyre roller is used. But see one thing, that roller should be used aside by 1m from the inner side of the wall.

FALKLAND 



This machine is used to filter the soil and also to give the soil at a large distance. Though it's boom is much longer and also for large bucket size, it can carry huge amount of soil to spread it all around. But basically this type of machine is used for large excavations, to climb the hilly areas, to filter the soil etc. It's a very useful machine and it can support large areas in difficult times/situations. 

JCB 


The most common used machines for any construction works, basically for excavations. But in RE Wall, it has many uses. It can bring the soil from one area to other area. It can store the soil in somewhere and then use it when required. It works like grader and sometimes like as Falkland, for excavation and also to filter the soil. It can bring the soil, aggregates or stone dust or gravel in it's loader, to use it for required work. Without JCB construction work is useless to start. With this machine only you can start any construction work. 

VIBRATOR 

And at last this is the most important machine for casting. Without vibrator, casting of panels is useless. It neither gets compaction nor sets perfectly. This is the useful machine for casting of panels. Basically needle vibrators are used of size (40-60) mm. So that the concrete gets well compacted and neither water voids nor air voids remain there.

MACHINES USED AT CONSTRUCTION SITES

 The most commonly used machine at any construction site is JCB where it's technical name is Backhoe. It is the most common and widely used machine in any construction project whether its big or small project. It becomes easier and makes the work faster for the companies at any time of interval.    All other machines such as Transit Mixer, Concrete Mixer, Roller etc are also used in any kind of road project or building project. Transit Mixer is used for large large building projects, bridge projects, some kind of road projects etc. whereas concrete mixer is for small building projects. Roller is used for road project and bridge project for its elevation.  For any building project the most commonly used machines are concrete mixer, transit mixer, concrete pump, bar bending machine, needle vibrator, water pump and many more. All these machinery works make the work easier and faster. Otherwise if the work is done with labourers it will take more time and less efficient ...

How to edit grid systems in Etabs

 Okk in the last blog I had discussed about Etabs for beginners. You have got at least some ideas about it. If you have not seen it then click here . But here I am going to discuss how you will edit Grids/Columns in Etabs. As I had said by clicking on "Modify/Show Grid Systems" option a new dialog box appears, their you can edit anything. But you can also do it by different way. On the left side in grid dimensions (plan) you can see that two options are available. One is "Uniform Grid Spacing" and the other is "Custom Grid Spacing". Click on the "Custom Grid Spacing" and you see that Edit Grid Data option is available. Just click on that, and you can edit it as you want by giving the required dimensions in X-axis and Y-axis only. Ok whatever be lets come to the topic. If you have done it like as I have shown earlier then follow those steps. And the one who were new to this blog this is just for that. That's why I underlined with BLUE line an...

Excavation for RE Wall.

 So, hey guys! How are you? You might have read my previous blogs about panel casting  and panel placing . Now it's time to learn about panel erection or what to do after 3-4 months of casting the panels. So the first step is about excavation for RE Wall. Then only you can erect the panels. So let us learn about this excavation part.  You all know excavation work is done by JCB or Falkland. To excavate the soil and then carry it to the other dumped areas. But before excavation you all know, to marked the center line as well as the outer line also so that the area doesn't excavate much as per the requirement. For excavation just you need to take 500mm more, then that of the given drawing.  Doing this excavation is easy. But what to do if it's flooded with rain water/ or water coming from other sources. Definitely your answer will be to do dewatering work with a water pump. That's fine. But do this dewatering work with almost by fixing 3-4 water pumps. So that it soaks...
