Design Philosophies, , 1.1., , PLAIN CEMENT CONCRETE, , Plain Cement Concerete is a hardened mass obtained from a mixture of cement, sand, gravel and, , water in definite proportions. These ingredients are mixed together to form a plastic mass which is, , poured into desired shape moulds called as forms. This plastic mass hardens on setting and we get plain, cement concrete. The hardening of this mixture is caused by a chemical reaction between cement, and water., , Plain cement concrete has good compressive strength but very little tensile strength, thus limiting, its use in construction. Plain concrete is used where good compressive strength and weight are the main, , requirements and tensile stresses are very low., , 1.2. REINFORCED CEMENT CONCRETE, Plain cement concrete has very low tensile strength. To improve the tensile strength of concrete, some sort of reinforcement is needed which can take up the tensile stresses developed in the structure., most common type of reinforcement is in the form of steel bars which are quite strong in tension., The reinforcing steel is placed in the forms and fresh concrete is poured around it. This solidified, , composite mass is called as Reinforced cement concrete and is abbreviated as R.C.C. Thus, Reinforced, cement concrete is a composite material which is made up of concrete and steel reinforcement. The steel, reinforcement, generallyinthe form of steel bars, are placed in the tensile zone of the structure and, , take up the tensile stresses. R.C.C. is a versatile constYuction material which is strong in compression as

There is an overall, andprestressed, economy by using R.C.C. because its maintenance cost is, low., Transportation: The raw materials which are required for R.C.C., water and steel are, easily available and can be transported i.e., cement, sand aggregate,, easily. Nowadays Ready MIX, Concrete (RMC) is used for faster and, better construction. (RMC is the, concrete which 1s, manufactured in the factory and, transported to the site in green or plastic, Fire Resistance:, R.C.C., structures are more fire resistant than otherstate)., construction materials like steel, commonly useu, and wood., Permeability: R.C.C. is almost, impermeable to moisture., Seismic Resistance:, Properly designed RC.C. structures are, extremely resistant to, , Despite, , reinforcing, , reinforcement, , The properties of concrete, depends upon the proportions and type of its ingredients. A, properly, designed concrete mix is very durable. A good concrete, mix should satisfy the, following requirements, (i) The concrete should be mixed, thoroughly to from a homogeneous mix., (ii) Concrete should be, compacted properly to prevent it from being porous., (ii) Sufficient curing of concrete is required for, developing full strength., iv) The water cement ratio should be apropriate,, considering the strength and workability criteria., (v) The concrete mix should be designed, properly and should have all the ingredients in right, , (vi), (vi), , 7.

Concrete Making Materials, , Conr' K setiCon, , (i) Rapid Hardening Portland, Cement, , Rapid hardening cement is finely ground, and has more percentage of tricalcium silicate and, aluroihgte, which results in rapid hardening, and quick, development of the strengun. This type of aicaledum, used in places, cement is, construction works, where, to be done,, faster, that the, fom_work, can, be removed, early.

This type of, cement is used in mass concrete works, such, as gravity dams, retaining wall. bridge abutments etc.., where large amount of concrete may result in very high heat of hydration. High heat of hydration can, lead to severe cracking of the concrete. This cement should confirm to IS, 12600:1989., , hence, , (iv) Portland Slag Cement, , (1) Cement, , concrete which, shows binding, properties after, which, hardened mass, , Cement is the only chemically active ingredient of, reacting with water.

There are many types of, , Blast furnace slag is the waste product of Pig Iron industry. This slag is mixed with the cement, clinker amd ground properly to obtain portland slag cement. The slag imparts high resistance against, Sulphate attack to the cement. Therefore, it is widely used in places where chances of sulphate attack, , cements available in market. some of which are explained beiow:, , are there, such as under soil construction works (subjected to ground water exposure) and near the, industries emitting waste containing sulphates. It should confim to IS 455:1989., , (i) Ordinary Portland Cement, , (v) Sulphate Resisting Cement, , Ordinary portland cement (OPC) is commonly used in construction. The Bureau of Indian standard, OPC in three grades. This ciassification is based, on the compressive strength of, cubes. The face area of these cubes shall be 50, The cube is made of I part of cement, mortar, to 3, sand by weight. with a specified water cement ratio. The grades of OPC cement, as per this classification are, following:, has, , classified, sand, parts of standard, , cement, , cm., , i ) 33 grade, ii) 43 grade, , Hii) 53 grade., , Here the grade number indicates the minimum compressive strength of cement-sand mortar cubes in, N/mm at 28 days., It, , is, , preferable, , to, , measure cement in terms of its, , changes, , with the environment conditions.

Thiscement has very highsulphate resistance and is widely used, for under soil/ground water construction works., (vi) Portland Pozzolana Cement, , Porland Pozzolana cement contain pozzolanic material, clay or flyash. This cement is, obtained by grinding pozzolana and cement clinker together. The pozzolana have no cementitious, free lime they producea compound having cemertitious, properues themselves but when they combine with, as, cement is cheaper and has a lower rate of development of strength, Pozzolana, Porland, properties., all general construction, for, now, used, is, cement, Pozzolana, widely, being, compared to OPC. Portland, , like burmt, , works., (vi) White Cement, while manufacturing cement,, is obtained by controlling the percentage of iron oxide, This cement is manufactured by heatingon, materials., raw, by using China clay, chalk and lime stone as coal so that there are no chances of contamination with, oil fuel in place of, a very low flame by using, of desired colour., cement inorder to obtain cement, Coloured, pigments a r e added to the white, coal ash., This, , cement, , This cement is used for all aestheticworks., (2) Aggregate, , material or chemically inactive, of aggregates.
