I applied via Referral and was interviewed before Jan 2017. There were 4 interview rounds.
There are several types of foundations used in civil engineering.
Shallow foundations: spread footings, mat foundations
Deep foundations: pile foundations, drilled shafts
Special foundations: caissons, cofferdams
Combined foundations: raft foundations, pile caps
The ratio for ceiling plaster is typically 1:4 or 1:5.
The ratio refers to the proportion of cement to sand used in the plaster mixture.
A common ratio for ceiling plaster is 1 part cement to 4 parts sand.
Another common ratio is 1 part cement to 5 parts sand.
The specific ratio may vary depending on the project requirements and local building codes.
The proportion of M30 grade concrete is 1:1:2 (cement:sand:aggregate).
M30 grade concrete has a proportion of 1 part cement, 1 part sand, and 2 parts aggregate.
This means that for every 1 unit of cement, 1 unit of sand, and 2 units of aggregate are used.
For example, if you have 1 bag of cement (50 kg), you would need 50 kg of sand and 100 kg of aggregate.
Cutting length of steel is the length of steel bars required for construction purposes.
Cutting length of steel refers to the length of steel bars needed for construction projects.
It is calculated by subtracting the development length and lap length from the total length of the bar.
The cutting length is important for determining the quantity of steel required and for cost estimation.
For example, if a steel bar needs to ...
The number of holes per inch square in chicken mesh for external plaster varies depending on the specific requirements of the project.
The number of holes per inch square in chicken mesh for external plaster is determined by factors such as the type of plaster being used, the desired level of ventilation, and the size of the mesh.
In general, a common range for the number of holes per inch square in chicken mesh for exte...

I was interviewed in Dec 2024.
I applied via Walk-in and was interviewed in May 2024. There were 3 interview rounds.
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.

Mivan slab cycle is a construction technique using aluminum formwork for casting slabs in a repetitive cycle.
Mivan slab cycle involves setting up aluminum formwork panels for casting slabs.
The cycle includes fixing reinforcement, pouring concrete, curing, and then dismantling the formwork for reuse.
This method is efficient, cost-effective, and results in high-quality finishes.
Mivan slab cycle reduces construction time ...
Before concreting, ensure proper formwork, reinforcement placement, concrete mix design, and weather conditions.
Check formwork for proper alignment and stability
Ensure reinforcement bars are correctly placed as per design
Verify concrete mix design meets project specifications
Monitor weather conditions to prevent issues like rain or extreme temperatures affecting the concrete

OPC cement is made from limestone and clay, while PPC cement is made from fly ash and clay.
OPC cement has higher strength and is used for construction of high-rise buildings and bridges.
PPC cement has better workability and is used for plastering and finishing works.
PPC cement is more eco-friendly as it uses industrial waste as a raw material.
OPC cement is costlier than PPC cement.
OPC cement is commonly used in areas w...
A two way slab is a type of reinforced concrete slab that is supported by beams on all four sides.
Two way slab is used in buildings with large column spacing
It is designed to resist both positive and negative bending moments
It is commonly used in parking garages, commercial buildings, and residential buildings
Two way slab is more economical than one way slab for larger spans
