Area sqft works refers to the total square footage of work to be completed in a project.
Area sqft works is a measurement used in construction projects to determine the total amount of space that needs to be worked on.
It helps project managers estimate the amount of materials, labor, and time needed to complete the project.
For example, if a project involves building a house, the area sqft works would include the total s...

I applied via campus placement at University Vishveshvaraya College of Engineering (UVCE) and was interviewed in Dec 2023. There was 1 interview round.
The density of steel is approximately 7.85 grams per cubic centimeter.
The density of steel is a measure of how much mass is contained in a given volume of steel.
It is commonly expressed in grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm³) or kilograms per cubic meter (kg/m³).
The density of steel can vary depending on the specific type and composition of the steel alloy.
For example, the density of carbon steel is typically around 7.85...
Men are dominant in site work due to various societal and cultural factors.
Historically, construction and site work have been male-dominated industries.
Stereotypes and biases have led to fewer women pursuing careers in civil engineering and related fields.
Physical demands and safety concerns associated with site work may discourage some women from entering the field.
Lack of representation and mentorship for women in si...

Calculating concrete quantity for a structure
Determine the volume of the structure to be filled with concrete
Calculate the required concrete mix ratio
Multiply the volume by the mix ratio to get the total concrete quantity
Add an extra 5-10% to account for wastage and spillage
Consider the type of structure and its intended use when selecting the mix ratio
Steel density is the mass per unit volume of steel.
Steel density is typically measured in kilograms per cubic meter (kg/m³).
The density of steel can vary depending on the alloy and composition.
The density of mild steel is around 7.85 g/cm³.
High-strength low-alloy (HSLA) steel can have a density of up to 8.05 g/cm³.
Stainless steel has a density of around 8 g/cm³.

The number of concrete blocks required for 100sft depends on the size of the blocks and the thickness of the wall being built.
The number of concrete blocks needed can be calculated by dividing the total area (100sft) by the area of one block.
The size of the concrete block and the thickness of the wall will determine the number of blocks needed.
For example, if each concrete block is 1ft x 1ft and the wall is 4 inches th
Concrete density is the mass per unit volume of concrete.
Concrete density is typically measured in kilograms per cubic meter (kg/m^3).
The density of normal concrete is around 2400 kg/m^3.
Higher density concrete, such as heavyweight concrete, can have densities up to 4000 kg/m^3.
Lightweight concrete, on the other hand, can have densities as low as 1600 kg/m^3.
The thickness for outer and inner walls plastering typically ranges from 12mm to 20mm.
The thickness of plastering for outer walls is usually around 15mm to 20mm.
The thickness of plastering for inner walls is typically around 12mm to 15mm.
The thickness may vary based on the type of wall surface and the desired finish.
It is important to ensure proper curing and finishing for a durable and aesthetically pleasing result.
Various types of formwork have been used in my recently worked companies, including timber formwork, steel formwork, and aluminum formwork.
Timber formwork is commonly used for small to medium-sized projects due to its cost-effectiveness and flexibility.
Steel formwork is preferred for large and complex structures due to its durability and reusability.
Aluminum formwork is lightweight and easy to handle, making it suitabl
The mix proportion of plastering mortar typically consists of 1 part cement to 3-4 parts sand.
The mix proportion of plastering mortar is usually 1:3 or 1:4 (cement:sand)
The mix can also include lime to improve workability and durability
Water is added to achieve the desired consistency for application
Example: A common mix proportion for plastering mortar is 1 part cement, 3 parts sand, and water as needed
The materials required in 1m3 of plastering mortar include cement, sand, and water.
Cement is typically used in the ratio of 1:4 for plastering mortar.
Sand is used in the ratio of 3-4 times the amount of cement used.
Water is added as needed to achieve the desired consistency.
For example, for 1m3 of plastering mortar, you may need 0.25m3 of cement, 1m3 of sand, and water as needed.
