Civil engineering is a very diverse and wide discipline, depending on the area you really want to specialized.
we have structures, highway engineering, foundation engineering, hydraulics, project managements, irrigation and water resources etc.

structural engineering enables you to work with architects on building and other discipline on building projects, your role depend heavily on the complexity of the job structural. The more structurally complex the job become the more your involvement.

To the main issue at hand, building construction is purely a building technology job, we structural engineers do the consultancy work but due to too much overlaps like our good understanding of materials property like concrete, steel, wood, polystyrene etc, and our better understanding in analysis and mathematics, we tends to do better as a builder if we are ready to learn.

what you really need to know are as follows:
1.Learn how to interpret architectural, structural, mechanical, and electrical drawings on a building project
2. Learn how to read tape (linear measurement from measuring instrument), know the difference between 'metric' and 'imperic'
3. Learn how to do setting out with profile board
4. Learn how to batch concrete, mix ratio etc
5. Learn how to prepare quotation and bill of quantities
6. Learn how to do project schedules and job planning.

The title 'engineer' is overburden and very misleading. Learn as much as you can from artisans ( carpenters, masons, iron benders, electricians, etc). learn from other professionals like architects, civil engineers, building technologist, surveyor etc.

The main bar was 12mm spaced at 200mm center to center while the distribution bar was 10mm spaced at 250mm center to center. The aim of the job is not to allowed vehicle to pass over it but for the side of the wall to resist the overburden soil pressure which may result from moving vehicle adjacent to the wall.

My Engineer I greet o
Can the reinforcements allow for convenient packing of car on it without fear of collapsing?

Thanks

10 Facts you Didn’t Know about TMT Iron Rods

What are TMT Iron Rods?

Thermo-Mechanically-Treated (TMT) iron rods are products of innovation and technological advancement in the construction industry. They have become the most common, essential and highly preferred materials in building and construction because of their strong bonding with concrete, great strength and better ductility. They provide better reinforcement to concrete structures and minimize damage caused by earthquakes, corrosion, and thermal agents.

Interesting Facts about TMT Iron Rods

TMT iron rods have many qualities that give structures undeniable benefits. Let us consider ten facts you probably did not know about TMT iron rods.

Thermo-Mechanical Technology
TMT iron rods are produced through a unique manufacturing process called thermo-mechanical-treatment where hot steel billets are passed through quenching process.

The process hardens the outer surface of the iron rods, enhancing their tensile strength, while the inner core remains soft, increasing their ductility. This alteration in microstructure across the cross-section of the rod imparts enormous strength to it.

They are generally used in construction for superior protection against earthquake and other natural disasters. To however ensure safety for your structure, TMT iron rods should be resistant to corrosion as this helps to obtain a longer life to your structure.

Uniform rib structure
TMT iron rods have uniform rib structure which makes it easy for them to bond perfectly with concrete and cement. This enables the iron rods and concrete hold each other in place and not exist as separate entities forced to stay at one place. The result of this is that the structure is given great strength to bear load and withstand external forces.

Peralite Inner Core and Outer Core
The manufacturing process of TMT iron rods, which hardens the outer surface of the iron rods, and makes the inner core soft, enhances its tensile strength. This ensures that the structure is strong enough to bear extra load, durable and have long lifespan.

TMT iron rods are manufactured in grades.
TMT iron rods are produced in different grades. The grade is measured by the strength and rigidity. The grades are Fe-415; Fe-500; Fe-550, and Fe-600. Each grade has its properties and application. This means it is very essential to choose the right TMT iron rod based on its application and usage. Fe-415, for instance, has high uniform elongation and is used in areas which have moderate corrosion and that are prone to earthquakes.

TMT iron rods are corrosion and rust-resistant.
The manufacturing process of TMT iron rods gives them enhanced rust and corrosion resistance. They have low carbon content which makes them withstand rust and corrosion, and enhance total life of the structure.

TMT iron rods have thermal resistance.
The right chemistry and physical properties of TMT iron rods ensure that the rods withstand high temperature, moist conditions and fire. Hence, they give buildings and structures longer lifespan.

Suitable for all types of construction projects
The edge that TMT iron rods have over local iron rods is that they are used for all types of construction projects due to their excellent bendability and flexibility. TMT iron rods can be broadened or bent to suit your construction structure.

They are natural-disaster-resistant.
The unique manufacturing process of TMT iron rods gives them a high level of ductility. This ensures that when buildings are shaken up during natural disaster, especially earthquake, they can retain their structure. This is the reason why TMT iron rods are highly preferred in major construction projects.

TMT iron rods have excellent flexibility and bendability.
The intensely advanced quenching process undergone by TMT iron rods hardens the outer layer, thereby giving the iron rods easy bendability. This quality means that TMT iron rods can be moulded into any desired shape without breaking and can be used for various construction purposes.

TMT iron rods are defect-free.
Also, TMT iron rods do not go through any deformation or twisting processes. This is why their surface is free from cracks and other defects.

Choose the genuine TMT brand

TIGER TMT iron rods have unmatchable strength, perfect ductility, thermal resistance, and other great qualities that make them suitable for all types of construction. They are used for commercial construction projects such as dams, bridges, high rises, corporate or individual buildings, industrial construction, heavy civil construction and other construction types that require high yield strength.
