In the Construction layout basics video, the narrator refers to ‘batter boards’; in Australia we usually refer to these as profiles. Also, you will notice the use of imperial units of measurement. In Australia, we use metric measurement. In the Finchley College video, the lecturer describes the use of a total station for the setting out. A total station is a surveying instrument that integrates the capabilities of an electronic theodolite with electronic distance measurement. He also talks about surveying to set out the foundations. In Australia, we use the term foundation for the ground upon which the structure is built, and the term footing for the base of the building that sits on the foundation. The Chad Ryan video narrator refers to the “pad” – this is the base or platform of the bulk excavation before the detailed excavation takes place.) Review drawing CC-1A, CC-23A, CC-24A (Factory plans) and surveying report and marks/ control points (corners boundaries, AA/A1, AK, A7, etc) Ensure that the Survey marks have been established and marked out as reference points within the corners of the lot with stakes. Stakes should be positioned at least 600mm from the building line Run a taut string line from batter board to batter board, passing directly over the pegs. Stringlines to be run between the nails and the top of the stakes. Check the distance between each stringline and ensure that they are equal. Once the perimeters are parallel, the diagonals need to be measured to ensure that the building line is Square. Diagonals should be double checked by using Pythagoras theorem to prove it is square and correct. Profiles should be established around the site but should at least be minimum 1200mm away from construction machinery. Stakes should be perfectly pointed to ensure that when they are driven into the ground they don’t twist and move to avoid inaccuracies. Plans should be looked over and checked for the location of footings including strip footings, pad footings and beams. Hubs and laths are used to establish gridlines with chalk and should be double checked that they are correctly placed. Dig out the footings ensuring that they are the right depth before finally pouring the footing. 2. Structural integrity – study the drawings showing details of the footings for this project. Describe how the footings – piers, pad footings (these are really pile caps), strip footings (this is really a pier and beam type system) and slab – contribute to the structural integrity of the building. You will need to address the following in your answer: a. the purpose of each type of footing (the specific loads that are supported; why this type of footing is used; how the loads are transferred to the ground) (approx. 100 words each) Piers : LA023653, Assessment 3, CPCCBC4011B, Ed4 3 © New South Wales Technical and Further Education Commission, 2019 (TAFE NSW), Version 2, November 2019

A pier is a concrete column that's cast a top of a footing and is connected to the footing by steel re-bar. Piers are vertical pillars that transfer the load of the structure to the soil. Mostly used in soils that are either highly expansive or prone to collapse. These are typically underlain by stable material of high strength gravels, or compact sand. Piers work well on sites that may be difficult to dig a traditional foundation for example around tree roots, as well as being ideal for sites that are close to the ocean or flood zones as they raise a structure off the ground to protect it from the water. Pad footings: the simplest and cost-effective footing used for the vertical support and the transfer of building loads to the ground. Pad are footings used in good soil conditions this means that these types of footings do not need to be deep and structural loads of from the building is isolated to columns and not load baring walls. In instances the bearing capacity of soil directly below the structure is insufficient for a spread footing, piles are then used to transfer the load to deeper and firmer strata. It is necessary for piles to be used when the soil is affected by seasonal changes Strip footings : strip footing supports the load of the exterior walls and any interior wall that is load bearing or supports a slab. These are shallow foundations and are deemed to be the best option for light loads. Concrete Slab : Concrete slabs can be used in two different ways which include being supported by the ground or suspended slab above the ground. slabs are made from reinforced concrete. The slab is poured thicker at the edges, to form an integral footing. b. specific requirements for each type of footing (why they are the size specified; why they have reinforcement in the configuration shown; types of joints if applicable) (50 - 100 words each) Piers : Where footings are used on fill, unstable soils low bearing capacity soils, etc. the footings (and slab) will need further support which may be provided by: Bulk piers—using a backhoe or excavator to dig down to firm ground at regular intervals. Bulk piers are generally poured at the same time as the footing. 4 LA023653, Assessment 3, CPCCBC4011B, Edition number 4 © New South Wales Technical and Further Education Commission, 2019 (TAFE NSW), Version 2, November 2019

After three days, excavate concrete beams between the piers. These concrete beams will be excavated around the entire perimeter of the house. Position steel reinforcement for the beam. Pour the beam Pad Footings Construction method/sequence Pile caps are constructed by excavating an area around the group of piles to enable form work to be inserted. The pile tops may be trimmed to ensure they are at the same height. A reinforcement cage is then built and positioned in the formwork cast box and fastened to the piles.

4. Read about the different types of joints in ground slabs. a. Sketch and explain the purpose and structural functionality of three types of slab joint (approx. 50 words each ), and Isolation joins (also known as expansion joints), isolate the slab from a wall, a column or a drain pipe. 8 LA023653, Assessment 3, CPCCBC4011B, Edition number 4 © New South Wales Technical and Further Education Commission, 2019 (TAFE NSW), Version 2, November 2019
Construction joints (which can also function as contraction joints) Construction Joint in concrete used to prevent any crack during its life period. Concrete has the property of expansion and contraction due to temperature changes resulting in a change in the volume of concrete. The change in the volume of concrete causes concrete cracking. Contraction joints (also sometimes called control joints) Contraction joints (also called control joints) are used in to minimise random concrete cracking by creating straight-line weakened-planes in concrete to control the cracking location by inducing cracks at predetermined locations. When slabs shrink due to change in moisture and temperature, shrinkage or tensile stresses start building and cracks form at contraction joints because the concrete is weaker or thinner at these locations as illustrated below b. indicate on a part floor plan of the factory project, where you would expect to see an isolation joint.
