BUILDINGS AND CONSTRUCTION ( step by step)

STEP 1 SITE PREPARATION :   

                                  

This work involves the removal of roots of trees, debris and leveling ground area

STEP 2 Excavation and PCC:

     The foundation of building ground is excavated with the help of excavating machines as per the building dimension specified in drawings. In this foundation trench, a layer of PCC (Plain cement concrete) is laid in the dug portion before placing the reinforcements for the foundation. 

 STEP 3 : FOUNDATION

  

     A building is load transferred from the superstructure to the soil and needs to be extremely strong to handle the load. After the PCC work foundation reinforcement work is started. The foundation bottom level must check before concreting it. The remaining space between the foundation is filled with earth.

STEP 4: Plinth Beam and Slab:

 After the foundation work is done ground beam formwork preparation is started and poured with concrete. 

   Over the plinth beam, masonry work is started. And space between foundation and plinth beam filled with soil.

  

STEP 5: Superstructure – Column:

   He superstructure is the portion above the plinth level of the building.

  The main component of the superstructure is a column and beam. 

STEP 6: Brick Masonry Work:

    As column and beam framework completed masonry work is started with different materials such as bricks, concrete blocks, fly ash bricks, etc. according to building drawing. Masonry work is done using a cement mortar mix. It is a mixture of cement & sand.

STEP 7: Floor Slab or Roof Structure

 

    Then the formwork is started to construct slab resting on the column and beam. Over slab formwork, slab reinforcement is placed as per slab detailed drawing.

STEP 8: Door Window Framing and Fixations:

After that door window frames are fixed at their specified position given in drawing.

STEP 9: Exterior Finishing:

    Waterproofing is also done to prevent rising dampness in the wall. External cladding can also be done to enhance the elevation of the house.
