what are the differences between Tie beam, Ground beam and strap beam.
thanks
Answer Posted / sanjeev sah
strap beam :- In cantilever foundation design two separate footings are interconnected by a reinforced concrete beam that is very stiff AND IS NOT SUPPORTED BY THE UNDERLYING SOIL! The purpose of the design is to force the soil reaction to be concentrated at a specific point.
tie beam :- Building) a horizontal beam that serves to prevent two other structural members from separating, esp one that connects two corresponding rafters in a roof or roof truss
Ground beam :- In a framed structure, the sill which is nearest the ground or on the ground; used to distribute concentrated loads.

As per Kandal suggestions, we have implemented rolling starts on 140 (+/- 5) degrees and we kept 3 rollars to complete the rolling before falling 125 degrees and the Aggregate AIV is below 22. But When the DBM bed is being rolled 3rd high viabration, (Before 1 plain & low ,2 high Viabrations), the aggregate is getting sharp edge agg. projections are damaged. As the literature is said that, the VG-30 Grade having better control the temp. susceptibility than Penetration grade. if so we could not get this problem at site. But we are facing on site. let me know.
