Homeowners must consider their budget, as foundation repair...
To provide an appearance as if a corner stone were separately installed without requiring the mounting operation of separate corner stone laying by displaying characters such as the execution time and corner stone laying of a building onto the wall-shaped section of a precast concrete foundation. ;...
Installing a Sump Pump or a Dry Basement System in your Basement to Prevent Moisture. No finished basement is complete without some form of water protection. The next thing to consider, and for a long term solution at that, is the addition and installation of a sump pump or a complete fre...
The cold pour joints in this concrete foundation wall show us that the concrete truck made the first pour from the corner of this foundation wall. Concrete spread roughly evenly away (and sloping down) from each side of the foundation corner as the concrete was poured into the forms. The tr...
From corner towards adjacent opening, wider at top than bottom - often due to foundation settlement, expansive clay soil, frost damage, or damage from a shrub/tree close to the foundation wall. Under a ground floor window, from sill to ground, sill bowed up - often due to foundation heave...
Other than confinement thickness, corner radius, cross-sectional aspect ratio, and concrete strength are also the influential parameters of the compressive behavior of FRP-confined concrete in square and rectangular columns. Ozbakkaloglu and Oehlers [86] have performed a pilot study to investigate the...
