FERROCEMENT C-BEAMS/RAFTERS SUBMITTED BY:
PRATYUSH12617
• Ferrocement:Ferro cement is a form of reinforced concrete using closely spaced multiple layers of mesh and/or small diameter rods completely infiltrated with, or encapsulated in motor
• Properties• It is a very durable, cheap and versatile material.• less shrinkage, and low weight.• high tensile strength and stiffness• better impact and punching shear resistance• undergo large deformations before cracking or high deflections
Advantages• For structural application as beams in roofing.• 20% savings on materials and cost• Suitability for pre-casting• Flexibility in cutting, drilling and jointing• Very appropriate for developing countries, labor intensive• Good impermeability• Fabricated into any desired shape.• Ease of construction, low weight and long lifetime.• Better resistance against earthquake.
