What height of a 3.5 m high 300 x300 mm proposed col. can
be casted at a time ?
Answer Posted / girish rawat
you can cast up to 4 mts of column if you have reqd
supporting system for the same. As for the IS you cannot
pour concrete more than 1.5 mts as segregation and self
compaction takes place. For the columns you there is no
issue as the concrete doesn't drop to the bottom at once. it
is interrupted by stirrups all the way.
This is based in practical experience and we have got it right.
Secondly nowadays there is Mivan Shuttering where you cast
the entire slab and column at one stroke.
Keep moving with new technology, you will save time and the
quality will be better if the mix is homogeneous lesser joints
