The overall objective for the design of bituminous paving mixtures is to determine, within the limits of the project specifications, a cost-effective blend and gradation of aggregates and bitumen that yields a mix having the following properties: Design of Asphalt Pavement, Bitument Pavement (a) Sufficient bitumen to ensure a durable pavement; (b) Sufficient mixture stability … Read more
A beam transfers the load to the supports that in actual might be a column or a wall which in turn transfers the load to the foundation. Different Type of Structure / Beam Supports The supports are actually the conditions in which this load is distributed. The supports that are normally used in a beam … Read more
The algebraic sum of the vertical forces at any section of a beam to the right or left of the section is known as shear force. It is briefly written as S.F. The algebraic sum of the moments of all the forces acting to the right or left of the section is known as bending … Read more
Foundation substructures are structural members used to support walls and columns to transmit and distribute their loads to the ground. “Footing is the lowest part of the structure that distributes the load on a larger area to avoid any shear or axial failures of the structure” What is foundation? Design Criteria of Foundations For proper … Read more
