Marking

Site marking is one of the starting point of your construction. In this activity your Engineer and Meastri will identify pillar placements. Once pillars placement is identified based on soil condition earth work will start. Engineer will mark the area around the piller. Earth workers will dig marked area Depending on soil condition pillar depth will vary. Some people perform puja before starting this marking.

Building Foundation

Foundation is the lowest part of the building or the civil structure that is in direct contact with the soil which transfers loads from the structure to the soil safely. Generally, the foundation can be classified into two, namely shallow foundation and deep foundation. A shallow foundation transfers the load to a stratum present in a shallow depth. The deep foundation transfers the load to a deeper depth below the ground surface.

Creating Frame Work

Creating a framework for the arch to stand. The arch has long been used in masonry structures. In fact, a brick masonry arch found in the ruins of Ur in Mesopotamia dates back to 1400 B.C. Today, the brick arch is used in construction to span over wall openings and add aesthetics, as the arch is the consummate definition of form and function. This Brick Brief addresses design considerations for brick arches in veneer construction.

Creating Arches

The brick arch is the consummate example of form following function. Its aesthetic appeal lies in the variety of forms which can be used to express unity, balance, proportion, scale and character. Its structural advantage results from the fact that under uniform load, the invoiced stresses are principally compressive. Because brick masonry has greater resistance to compression than tension, the masonry arch is frequently the most efficient structural element to span openings.

The third building was a single dwelling space that was restored and retrofitted by plastering and cane fencing that was redone.
