Week 6 Timber based columns Erecting, propping, plumbing up and cramping technology Circular proprietary column systems

How to construct timber based column panels Select your material - 100 mm x 50 mm european whitewood 18 mm WBP ( Water and boilproof ) plywood Cut your backing timber to length – Check your specification or drawing for the column dimensions Add 18 mm to the finished width of the column for the plywood facing “rips” Ie: For a column which is 400mm wide – The plywood will be 418 mm wide,

How to construct timber based column panels The timber should overhang by 50 mm on one side 100 mm x 50 mm timber backing Plywood facing: Note: for a 400 column the ply is cut 418 mm wide 418 The timber should overhang by 18 mm on one side Note : you must make 4 of these panels to form a set

Activity 9 Reproduce this diagram on A4 drawing paper using drawing boards and equipment. Do not draw this diagram to scale just proportion it to your drawing paper

Draw a cross sectional ( Overhead view ) of the formwork required to cast a 500 mm x 500 mm column. The drawing should be drawn to a scale of 1:5 Column cramps 75 mm wide 500 mm x 500 mm Coumn

Week 7 Suspended slabs Erecting, propping and edge forming technology

Activity 10

Week 8 Suspended slab with drop edge beam Formwork construction requirements A listing of all the requirements of formworking materials and equipment. The details are for before during and after the erection of formwork

Activity 11

Activity 12

Week 9 Calculations Working out volumes of concrete Hydrostatic pressure

Activity 13 : Calculations Your tutor will discuss the working out with the class once you have attempted the calculations

Activity 14

Hydrostatic pressure Example Calculate the maximum hydrostatic pressure at the bottom of a 2 m high concrete column, assuming the density of concrete is 2400 kg/m3. Maximum hydrostatic Density of Distance from top Pressure at any point = Concrete (Kg/m3 x of form 100 ( Converts to KN Max pressure = 2400 x 2 100 Max pressure = 48 KN/m2

Calculate the maximum hydrostatic pressure on the following columns : Height = 1.4 m Density of concrete 2400 Kg/m3 = Height = 1.8 m Density of concrete 2500 Kg/m3 = C. Height = 3.4 m Density of concrete 2450 Kg/m3 =

Week 10 Selecting plant, materials, equipment and resources Reading the information Occupations, roles, trades and responsibilities within the construction industry List the trades
