CE306 Example Lab Report

CE 306 | Lab Report #6 Section 1, Team No. X Jan. 17, 2012 Jo Smith, Bob Jones, Billy Wall Introduction: In Lab 6, students must use the plan sheets to answer questions about reinforcing steel and vertical structural steel components in the DMACC Career Academy. To better understand the types and uses of reinforcing steel and vertical components, the students will define related terms, draw sketches, identify details related to and perform a quantity take off of reinforcing steel. Understanding how to quantify and read details pertaining to reinforcing steel provides students the general knowledge required to then estimate the cost. Reinforcing steel and vertical structural components are often overlooked in the final product of a building or roadway; however, it is imperative the students understand the purpose and design of such materials during the construction phase. While executing this lab, students must also observe common industry practices and standards not spelled out in the notes or specifications, especially while performing the quantity take-off. Summary/Quantity Information: Below are the eight questions with respective answers requested for this lab. Any and all assumptions were recorded in the response to each question. 1. Identify the value of the following loads that the building is designed to withstand: a. Snow Load : The DMACC Career Academy is designed to withstand a snow load of 30 PSF. Reference: Note 1/S0.1 Concrete Reinforcing Steel b. Horizontal Wind Pressure : While designing the structure of the building, a horizontal wind pressure of 20 PSF was factored in. Reference: Note 1/S0.1 Concrete Reinforcing Steel c. Live Load of the Mezzanine in Room 117 : The Mezzanine in the Automotive Technology Lab Room 117 was designed for two different live loads. By the Live Load Key Plan, Note 1 indicates a 100 PSF live load and Note 4 indicates a 200 PSF live load. Reference: S0.3 Structural Loading d. Dead and Live Load of Room 217 : Computer Lab Room 217 has a total, superimposed dead load of 10 PSF per Note 3 on the Live Load Key Plan. There is also a 20 PSF live load for partitions and a 40 PSF live load for classrooms. Reference: S0.3 Structural Loading 2. What is the width of a typical slab control joint? The typical width of a slab control joint used for the DMACC Career Academy is 3/16”. Reference: 9/S2.0 Structural Details 3. What anchors the slab ending at the North wall of the welding gas storage room to the footing below? A #4 180° hook rebar is placed 18” O.C. to anchor the slab to the footing at the given location. Reference: 2/S2.1 and 7/S2.1 Structural Details Page 3
