This able us to use cement after some later. If cement bags comes in c
ontact of
moisture cement gets set and we use this in structure this does not take
proper
strength that was calculated while designing the structure and may cau
se cracks or
decay and also liable to collapse the structure ,so proper Storing of cem
ent is
essential at the site.At the site cement is stored on a iron sheet which a
ct as a wall
between cement bags and earth moisture.
WATER TANKER :
e of
water to the site. This water is used in curing, preparing mortar a
nd
soaking of bricks etc.
This cone is filled with concrete mix then with this machine this
cone
provide concrete at the required height.
The art of covering the rough surface of masonary walls with the coats
of
suitable mortar to form a smooth finish even durable and weather resis
tant
surface is called plastering.
PROCESS OF PLASTERING :
Prepration of surface
Prepration of mortar
Application of plaster
First surface is prepared by even knocking off the projections on the sur
face
of column and beams.
All the masonary joints should be cleaned to a depth of 15mm , all the
dust
and dirt then cleaned. In case of old walls surface should be made roug
h.
After that we apply coats of plaster it may be single coat or double coat
. At
site there is single coat plastering .
During plastering thickness of plaster should be maintained at all
the
surfaceso we mark the thickness by making small circles at all the surf
ace of
equal thickness . During plastering workers have to wear helmet
, hand
glubbs and long shoes to prevent themselves from any accident.
TOOLS OF WORKERS
Following tools are used by the workers in the construction work :
Firstly a layer of lean concrete is made than a series of steal rods are pla
ced
Than we finish floor surface.
RESULT
At the end of visit we know how plastering , flooring , curing and binding
of
steal is to be done . we also know about the tools and machine used in t
he
construction work and some about the colour of helmets of workers.
