G-3 ICI Flashcards
- Pre-assembling footing forms- outside corner
Footing ladders are pre-built while the excavation is being dug and set to one side for quick installation. Positioned over the building corners.
- Types of footing forms securely weighted down
Tapered Pier footings
- On a pile locate the foot
Check phone (go to page 5)
- Pile type that rely on side pressure to carry a load
Friction piles
- Case pile type “x”
Take pic of case piles pg.20 and review differences
- Components of insulated concrete forms
Patented insulated concrete forming systems usually consist of panels,ties,corner,anchor brackets, and metal tracks. Products and installation may vary from one manufacturer to another.
- Foundation walls for flat insulating or (insulateting) concrete
ICF Foundation walls that fall under part 9 of the BCBC do not require reinforcement.
- Flat insulating concrete form foundation walls required
Maximum floor to height is 3m (9’10).
The building is no more than two storeys in height and contains only one dwelling unit .
The building location is in seismic spectral response acceleration Sa (2.0) zone of not more then 0.4
- Important why are the outside corners are made stronger
- Erecting form panels, what is done first
Should be oiled or sealed before use to prevent swelling when concrete is placed.
- Vertical formwork material quantity calc
contact area?!?!?
- The walls forming sheathing panels joints- inside+ outside
edges and ties and joist must align on inside and outside for the ties
- Advantage of having all side of column same size
the forms are interchangable
- Gang form wall panels are lifted up and reset
Gang form panels have lifting rings attached to the top of the strong-backs. the crane used a spreader bar to ensure that there are no lateral forces acting on the strong backs.
- How to control gang forms panels when they are framed
Having a crane on site allows the larger forms to be built and moved from place to place
- Most common time of forms to be damaged
Stripping before the concrete has gained sufficient strength
Order to layout 24’ o.c tie spacing on 4’x8’
