In the last post we have discussed THE LINEAR MEASUREMENTS IN METRIC SYSTEM. Like wise we will see the LINEAR MEASUREMENTS IN CUSTOMARY SYSTEM . LET US SEE THE UNITS: THE FREQUENTLY USED LINEAR UNITS ARE: Inches Feet Yard Mile LENGTH: THE BELOW PICTURE WILL REPRESENT THE ONE DIMENSIONAL UNIT CONVERSIONS : Below are some pictures representing the units in a easy remembering way: THE LINEAR UNITS WILL BE CONTINUED WITH COMPARISON OF METRIC AND CUSTOMARY SYSTEM (LINEAR UNITS) ...............
COVER TO REINFORCEMENT Concrete cover, in reinforced concrete, is the least distance between the surface of embedded reinforcement and the outer surface of the concrete (ACI 130). The concrete cover depth can be measured with a cover meter. PURPOSE OF REINFORCEMENT Minimu...
Let us start with learning basic thing essential for civil stream UNITS OF MEASUREMENTS A unit of measurement is a definite magnitude of a quantity, defined and adopted by convention or by law, that is used as a standard for measurement of the same kind of quantity. Any other quantity of that kind can be expressed as a multiple of the unit of measurement . For example, a length is a physical quantity . There are two systems which familiar in use. They are 1.Metric system 2.Customary system The system which is considered as a standard one all over the world is the METRIC SYSTEM. ...
