 OBJECTIVES OF THE PROPOSED WORK

 To get knowledge about the implementation of the structural drawing into construction site.
 To acquire knowledge about the step involving construction process.

 To gain knowledge about the sequence of work to be followed in the construction of the building.

 To learn and experience the on site works and challenges for self-improvement.

 To develop skills to complete the tasks of projects such that the project is completed within time

period and is economical and structurally sound.

 WORKS OBSERVED ON SITE
BRICK WORK:

The brick to be used should confirm with requirements of specification of the work. Initially, mix the mortar with water and blend it
until a smooth and plastic motor is produced.
Masonry involves the installation of building material units like stone, brick, and solid blocks, with the use the mortar as a building
material.
Brick size of 0.19X0.9X0.9m are used.
Type of bond for exterior walls is Flemish bond, whereas type of bond for interior walls is stretcher bond
Mortar (cement, sand) (1:4.5).
Curing was done for about 14 days (3 times a day).
Sill: The height between the base of the window and floor level is known as sill height.
Lintel: A horizontal beam that spans on opening, effectively distributing the weight of the structure above it to the surrounding
vertical supports in masonry wall.
Lastly, this pattern of laying bricks is used till the target height is reached.
BRICK MASONRY WORK ON SITE
 FORM WORK
Formwork (shuttering) in concrete construction is used as a mold for a structure in which
fresh concrete is poured only to harden subsequently. Types of concrete formwork
construction depends on formwork material and type of structural element.
There are generally two types of formworks used commonly :
1. Steel Formwork
2. Wooden Formwork
 FORMWORK AT SITE
Shuttering Process:
1. Design and Planning: - Determine the shape, size, and position of the
structural element. - Plan the type and amount of formwork material required.
2. Fabrication: - Cut and prepare the formwork materials according to the design
specifications.
3. Assembly and Erection: - Assemble the shuttering on-site. - Ensure it is
properly aligned and supported to withstand the pressure of the poured concrete .
4. Removal of Shuttering: - The shuttering shall be removed after 7 days of casting , the
shuttering plates should be cleaned and greased before placing the formwork.
5. Reuse : - Once the formwork is removed from members, they are reused for next
formwork placements.
 PLACING OF REINFORCEMENT
Review Drawings: Understand rebar sizes, shapes, and positions
Organize Materials: Have all rebar, ties, and accessories ready.
Measure & Cut: Cut rebar to required lengths.
Bend: Shape rebar as per specifications in the drawings of project.
Set Forms: Ensure secure formwork.
Install Chairs & Spacers: Maintain proper concrete cover.
Bottom Layer: Position rebar per layout; tie intersections.
Middle/Top Layers: Use supports for correct spacing.
Vertical: Place and secure vertical rebar.
 PLACING OF REINFORCEMENT
Horizontal: Add horizontal ties around vertical rebar.

Alignment & Spacing: Verify with measuring tape.

Inspect Ties: Ensure all ties are secure.

Pre-Pour Inspection (Final Check): Ensure compliance with design and safety standards.

Monitor: Ensure rebar remains in place during the pour.

Tips :

Safety: Wear protective gear.

Quality Control: Check for rust or contaminants.

Communication: Keep the team informed.

PLACING OF REINFORCEMENT ON SITE
 ELECTRICAL CONCEALING IN SLAB
Laying Conduits: Conduits are laid according to the marked routes. They are often secured to the rebar
framework to keep them in place during the concrete pour.
Bends and Junctions: Proper bends and joints are made to ensure smooth pathways for the wires. Junction
boxes are fixed at specified locations.
Securing Conduits: Conduits are tied to the rebar to prevent movement during concrete pouring. It is
crucial to ensure that they are properly secured and not compressed.
Clearance and Cover: Ensure that conduits have adequate clearance from the surface of the slab to prevent
exposure.
Key Considerations-
Compliance with Codes: Ensure all work complies with local building and electrical codes.
Future Proofing: Consider future needs for additional wiring or upgrades.
Quality of Materials: Use high-quality materials to prevent degradation over time.
ELECTRICAL CONCEALING AT SITE
 SLAB CASTING
Ordering Ready Mix Concrete: Calculate the required volume of concrete and order from a reliable
supplier. Ready mix concrete is prepared at a batching plant and transported to the site in transit mixers.
Transportation: Ensure the concrete is delivered within a reasonable time frame to prevent setting
during transit. Transit mixers keep the concrete agitated to maintain its workability.
Pouring: Pour the concrete into the formwork starting from one corner and working across the slab. Use
a chute or pump for larger areas to place the concrete evenly.
Spreading and Compacting: Use shovels, rakes, and vibrators to spread and compact the concrete.
Mechanical vibrators help eliminate air pockets and ensure proper consolidation.
Levelling and Finishing: Use a straight edge (screed) to level the surface of the concrete. This process
involves dragging the screed across the surface to remove excess concrete and achieve a uniform level.
Troweling: For a smoother finish, use hand trowels or power trowels after the initial setting. This step
might be repeated multiple times depending on the desired finish.
 SLAB CASTING
Curing:
Initial Curing: Start curing immediately after finishing to prevent the concrete from drying
too quickly. Cover the slab with curing blankets or plastic sheeting.
Water Curing: Keep the concrete moist by spraying water regularly, especially in hot and dry
conditions. Alternatively, apply a curing compound to seal in moisture.
Curing Time: Allow the concrete to cure properly. Typically, curing lasts for at least 7 days, but
longer curing times improve strength and durability.
Removing Formwork and Final Touches: Remove the formwork after the concrete has sufficiently
hardened, usually after 24-48 hours. Be cautious to avoid damaging the edges.
Control Joints: Cut control joints to prevent cracking. These should be done after the concrete has set
but before it hardens completely, typically within 24-48 hours.
Sealing: Apply a concrete sealer if required to protect the surface from stains and weathering.
SLAB CASTING ON SITE
 COLUMN CASTING
Structural Design:- Obtain and review structural drawings and specifications from a qualified
engineer.- Ensure that all design calculations and load assessments are accurate.

Site Preparation:-

Clear and level the construction site.

Set up formwork for the columns, ensuring it matches the design dimensions and specifications.

Materials:- Use high-quality plywood, steel, or aluminum formwork materials.- Ensure formwork is
clean and free from defects.

Assembly:- Assemble the formwork as per the column layout on the structural drawings.- Ensure
formwork is properly aligned and braced to prevent movement during casting.
 COLUMN CASTING

Placement:- Place the rebars inside the formwork following the specified spacing and
positioning.- Use spacers to maintain the correct cover between the rebars and the formwork.
Pouring:- Pour concrete into the formwork in layers, typically not exceeding 1.5 meters in
height per layer.- Use vibrators to compact the concrete and remove air bubbles, ensuring no
voids are left
Curing- After pouring, cover the top surface with wet burlap, plastic sheets, or curing
compounds to prevent moisture loss.
Post-Curing Inspection and Finishing
Inspect the column for any defects or honeycombing
Repair any defects using suitable repair materials and methods.
Ensure the column dimensions and alignment are within the permissible tolerances.

 CONCLUSION

 The internship is a bridge between the theoretical knowledge and the practical or the reality work at the
field of construction or civil engineering work.
 We all who take the internship class go to companies that already working either as a consultant or
contractor.
 The responsibilities of the hosting company are to teach student and shape them in the one month as a
real site worker.
 My hosting company is a consultant team and they help me and friends who took the internship session
in the company in acquiring different knowledge in different position.
 Since I took my internship session in the consulting side Residential Building Construction.
 I get an opportunity to work in different party of the construction work which helps me to gain more
knowledge by seeing what they work in their own office and what is their main responsibilities to the
client and also each other.
