ISHAN'S R.C.C. Drawing

Ishan’s Reinforced Concrete Drawing is a practical and syllabus-oriented textbook prepared for 5th Semester Civil Engineering and Architectural Assistantship students. The book develops a clear understanding of reinforcement detailing and structural drawing of important RCC components through systematic explanations, properly labelled drawings and bar bending schedules. The book begins with the fundamentals of reinforced cement concrete, including nominal diameter of bars, nominal cover, anchorage of tension bars and calculation of steel-bar lengths for beams and slabs. It then explains the reinforcement detailing of slabs, beams, columns, footings and portal frames. A separate section on AutoCAD for RCC drawings introduces students to computer-aided drafting. Contents Covered in the Book 1. Introduction Concept of Reinforced Cement Concrete Nominal diameter of reinforcing bars Nominal cover to reinforcement Anchorage of bars in tension Calculation of steel-bar lengths for beams and slabs 2. RCC Beams Singly reinforced rectangular beams Doubly reinforced rectangular beams Cantilever beams Reinforcement arrangement with vertical stirrups Bar bending schedules 3. RCC Slabs Classification of slabs Difference between one-way and two-way slabs One-way slab reinforcement Two-way slab reinforcement Cantilever slab detailing Shear design and bar bending schedules 4. Columns and Footings Classification of columns Effective length of columns Short and long columns Reinforcement in columns Square, rectangular and circular columns Columns with lateral ties Isolated sloped column footings 5. Portal Frames Three-bay, two-storey RCC portal frame Reinforcement detailing of structural members Enlarged details of beam-column junctions 6. AutoCAD for RCC Preparation of RCC drawings using CAD software Computer-aided drafting of reinforcement details Read more
