The stages of strengthening from start to finish include strengthening any type of construction, which is not an easy task and may require a lot of effort and investment. Although the construction of the building takes a lot of time and is tiring work, the result is a lasting asset to us. The process of strengthening a residential building is an organized work carried out by skilled people.
Building construction process from zero to one hundred
Due to people’s increasing need for high quality buildings, structural diagnosis and re-strengthening of buildings is one of the essential projects in the construction industry. Concrete building strengthening technology means using science and reasonable strengthening measures to improve the safety and durability of concrete building structures. It ensures the normal use of buildings and increases their life span based on confirmation and diagnosis of the strength of the main concrete structures of the building.
Strengthening the building structure includes strengthening problems in the construction process, modifying and strengthening the basic performance of the building, so as to increase the useful life of the building.
The steps used to strengthen the building from the beginning are:
a. Pre-construction steps
Request technical assistance
Estimate costs and budget
Obtain permission from the relevant authorities
Inspection of the superstructure – columns.
B. During the construction stages of the building
Single site preparation or settlement works
2-Drilling and PPC
3- Foundations
4- Base beam or slab
5- Superstructure – columns
6- Brick works
7- Window openings on the door
8- Floor slab or roof structure
9- Framing and installing windows and doors
10- Electricity and plumbing
11- External finishes
12- Terrace finishing and ceiling • 13- Interior finishing
14- Carpentry and equipment
15 Moisture insulation
16-Making the painting
The following steps are given step by step to construct the building
Pre-construction stages (first stage)
- Possession of land or plots of land
This is the most important stage in building construction. Find the most suitable construction site for building construction purposes. Be careful while selecting the land which has all the desired facilities nearby and it should be free from all land related issues.
It is suggested that before purchasing land or land, you should collect previous information about the effective cost through online research or by seeking help from real estate agencies or related people.
- Get technical assistance
After choosing the appropriate land for construction, get help from a professional architect to draw up construction plans and benefit from his advice. The architect prepares a plan based on the needs of the building and the number of apartments and shops based on your needs and budget. • Then, after the architect consults with a structural engineer for details of the reinforcement used, your foundation depth, gravel size used, column width, etc. are applied. - Preparing estimates and budgets
The strengthening phases of construction involve a large amount of materials and budgets. After the layout and details of the structure are completed, these details are conveyed to the building estimator. A building estimator estimates the quantity of different materials for the job and prepares a summary sheet showing the cost of constructing the building.
What is the building construction process?
The process of constructing the various elements of a building on a construction site is called the building construction process. Building construction consists of various stages such as planning, design, site preparation, construction of foundations, construction of columns, beams, slab, plastering and finishing works.
Strengthening steps for buildings
Reinforced concrete is needed to strengthen buildings in houses, tunnels, garden facilities, etc. The first requirement for buildings is safety.
Therefore, regardless of the building design concept and how the building structure changes, concrete is necessary as a basic material, and attention to its strengthening and safety of reinforced concrete building structures is especially important.
In the current industrial and civil buildings, there are many buildings that have been used for more than 30 years.
Many factors limit them, and many concrete buildings have varying degrees of potential safety hazards.
In addition, some buildings compromise building safety due to design, construction and engineering management issues.
When the following conditions occur in the building, the building should be inspected and weatherproofed in time.
The process of strengthening buildings
The process used to strengthen a building includes design approval for relatively simple to complex structural components and connections between components.
Analytical and computer methods are usually used to analyze the behavior of the structure and obtain results to verify the design so that judges and project managers in government institutions or investors can do so.
Conduct critical reviews of the application and implementation of FRP materials in construction projects.
Follow up the construction process and identify critical points in projects that need special attention.
With the help of consultants and decision makers to gain a clear vision on when to use FRP instead of classic building materials.
How is the work process at Pekran Sazan Company?
After completing the course, Pekran Sazan structural engineers and architects will help you by utilizing the advantages of building strengthening in relation to traditional materials in infrastructure and construction projects, and at the same time knowing the limitations that exist for specific applications. Make informed choices from a variety of different building strengthening materials and processes suitable for a particular application.
Benefits of following building strengthening steps
– Following building strengthening steps provides opportunities for designers to design creatively and freely.
Construction companies can benefit from reducing the weight of materials, for example, and experimenting with the strengthening process by reducing foundation costs, lifting equipment, etc.
conclusion
Strengthening buildings is an essential process in construction. Steel reinforcement is a choice for strengthening due to its unique advantages compared to other strengthening materials, which include:
