RCC Slab: How Placement of Electrical Conduits & Reinforcement arrangement

  Let us take a virtual tour of a  building construction site for checking Electrical conduit in RCC slab and reinforcement arrangement  which is going to be cast. Conduit Electrical system is the most common type of Electrical wiring. Mostly PVC conduits are used in domestic wiring. What is visible at the site 1-Electrical conduits as per the Arrangements of lights,  fans,  TV, etc, which protect the wires from external damage as well as increase the longevity of wires. 2-Slab Thickness: Slab thickness of 125 mm was provided. 3-Slab Reinforcement: Top Reinforcement: Here the distance from support is 0.1L from beam Corner, at the discontinuous end and in continuous slab,the distance is 0.3L. Bottom Reinforcement: Here the distance from the center of support is 0.15L from beam Corner, or discontinuous end and in continuous slab, reinforcement distance is 0.25L from the support center.  Reinforcement distances in both top and bottom are maintained alternatively. 4- Concealed Beam or Hi
