What is the meaning of the M4.6 grade bolt – Cazzon

The first digit relates to the ultimate strength of the material, whilst the second is the ratio of yield stress to ultimate strength. Thus grade 4.6 bolts have an ultimate material strength of 400N/mm2 and the yield (or proof) stress is 60% of the ultimate strength. What is black’bolts? 4.6 grade bolts without corrosion protection … Read more

Point of application of horizontal load on bridges – Cazzon

In India, some bridge engineers have doubts on point of application of horizontal load. Some people consider the point of application of longitudinal and transverse load at the bearing level. Longitudinal force : The longitudinal forces shall be considered as acting horizontally through the knuckle pins in case of bearings having rocking arrangement or through … Read more

Grouting in Tunnel

Jet Grouting (Horizontal): – An efficient and versatile technical solution for tunnelling in different soil, usually with high granulometry, the presence of intense water flow and high hydraulic gradient. The construction of the Main tunnel and Escape Tunnel through quaternary deposits, consisted of silty-clayey soil with gravels, pebbles, cobbles and occasionally boulders. Horizontal Jet Grouting … Read more

HOW TO DETERMINE PILE CAP DEPTH?

I have a doubt regarding assuming pile cap thickness. There are two theories Beam theory and truss theory. In truss theory, the empirical formula for pile cap depth, when the pile diameter less than 550mm is, D= 2 × dp+100 mm , Where D is the pile cap depth and dp is the pile diameter … Read more
