Guidelines for Design and
Construction
Presented by: [Your Name]
Date: [Date]
Introduction
• • Overview of IS 456:2000
• • Governing standard for concrete in India
• • Covers plain and reinforced concrete
• • Applicable for buildings, bridges, and other
structures
• • Ensures safety, quality, and durability
Scope and Applicability
• • Areas covered:
• - Design
• - Materials
• - Workmanship
• - Inspection and Testing
• • Applicable to:
• - New construction
• - Repair and rehabilitation
Materials
• • Cement: Types permitted as per IS codes
• • Aggregates: Specifications for fine and
coarse aggregates
• • Water: Standards for potable water use
• • Admixtures: Usage and approval criteria
Concrete Grades
• • Classification: M10 to M80 (Nominal and
Design Mixes)
• • Applications of different grades
• • Mix proportioning:
• - Nominal mix for simpler structures
• - Design mix for complex/critical structures
Design Philosophy
• • Limit State Design (LSD): Safety and
Serviceability
• • Working Stress Method (WSM): Earlier
method, replaced by LSD
• • Partial safety factors for materials and loads
Durability
• • Factors affecting durability:
• - Environmental exposure conditions
• - Water-cement ratio limits
• - Minimum cement content
• • Reinforcement protection and cover
requirements
Structural Design
• • Design principles:
• - Flexure, Shear, Compression, and Torsion
• • Limit State Method for beams, slabs,
columns, and footings
• • Reinforcement details:
• - Minimum and maximum reinforcement
percentages
• - Anchorage and development lengths
Construction Practices
• • Formwork: Materials, design, and stripping
times
• • Curing: Importance and methods (ponding,
membrane curing, etc.)
• • Workmanship: Guidelines for mixing,
placing, and compacting concrete
Inspection and Testing
• • Testing of fresh concrete:
• - Slump test
• - Compaction factor test
• • Hardened concrete:
• - Compression test
• - Flexural strength test
• • Quality control measures
Updates and Amendments
• • Amendments to IS 456:2000 (if any)
• • Comparisons with international standards
• • Future perspectives
Conclusion
• • Summary of key points
• • Importance of adherence to IS 456:2000
