What is ideal location for cube casting, RMC vehical at
Ground Floor and Slab casting at 40th Floor
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
Answer / balakrishna bedudoori
I think the ideal location for cube casting is near Slab
casting at 40th floor, because if we take concrete from RMC
vehicle at ground floor, free falling height of concrete
from the vehicle to the ground is generally more than 1.5m,
which can lead to seggregation of concrete, which is not
good for taking moulds.

Answer / prasanna
Since atleast 6 cubes are taken for a batch of concrete, it
is advisable to take 3 each at both location, so that we get
clarity on workability of concrete.Average result of these 6
cubes will hold good.

actually it should be what type of conc. we r going to pour at a area,weather it is M35 and above then it must be in g floor but cube must be cast at pouring point.

Answer / sobhanbabu
at the 40th floor only.pumping jurney takes nearly 10
minutes.during pumping heat generates.

Answer / sudhir shetty
Its at the ground floor because during pumping there will be
some loss of slurry etc which is calculated during designing
of structure after which required strength is calculated. If
its taken in 40th floor u will not get the perfect sampling.

can we find any technical issue if we are gong to change the dimensions of steel beams from one type to another type IE if there are any equievelant data base to find solution for problem of changeing sectios of beam from one type to another with the same cross sectional area.
