Preparation of grade beam reinforcement. Grade beam is a reinforced concrete beam design to span from columns to columns, carrying only ground floor walls and transmitting such load to foundation columns instead of the soil below. Here are some of the pictures of ground beam reinforcement

Two course of block was built over the grade beam to help raise the building floor level in other to prevent against flooding 2 Likes

abdulwastecx: Hello Team Harney, you didn't answer the question. Was a soil test performed on this site? Thanks. |

2sexycom:The design was not done by us, Its between the client and the structural firm that did the design why a soil test was not carried out but we adviced all our clients to carry out a soil test. On our part,we observed the physical characteristics of the soil to be okay during the excavation and also we went round the locality and observed other buildings, asked Question to assertain the type of foundation used by other buildings , from our physical observation the soil in that locality respobded well to the load buildings but i must reiterate this approach dose not take away the need for a geotecnic test. 1 Like |

podosci:Nice job. Please do you need a soil test on a bungalow building or only on duplexes? 1 Like |
Re: How We Build Duplexes In Nigeria by podosci(m): 9:29am On Sep 01, 2016 |
DUNKA:Technically you need a soil test to determine the type of foundation to be done weither bungalow or duplex......Specifically Any Raft foundation or pile foundation done without the result of geotechnic test is wrong. For bungalows where the load is very small and a strip is to be used an alternative method not sactioned by most literature is physical obersavation of the sorrounding buildings to check how the building interact with the soil and the foundation used. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Do you need a soil test for plint beam foundation? podosci: |
Re: How We Build Duplexes In Nigeria by abdulwastecx(m): 1:09pm On Dec 21, 2016 |
ceelog: The plinth beam doesn't transmit load directly to the soil below, it transfer load to the columns, so you all need soil test to determine the depth and size of your footings |

Good day ! have reached u through mail but i could not get it through, i have a question over one of article you composed ''Proper Analysis of design and cost of a foundation design for boungalow'' There i found shrinkage and wastage of 25% to increase the volume of concrete, which you later calculated as: 1.25 (25%) x (girth x width of the trench x thickness of the foundation footing). Here, i want to know if 25% was 1.25 in conversion ? |
