What is the role and significance of top and bottom reinforcement bars in a concrete cantilever slab?

PRECAST FOCUS: PRECAST CONCRETE PRODUCTION IN COLD WEATHER - Precast concrete products are typically manufactured in a controlled indoor plant environment. However, large structural products, such as bridge girders, piling, and double tees are often cast outdoors on long-line steel casting beds, exposed to the elements where cold-weather conditions need to be considered. Concrete can be placed safely throughout the winter months in cold climates if certain precautions are taken. Learn more: https://ow.ly/gVc150R2Kkr #precastfocus #howprecastbuilds

Raft foundation is actually a thick concrete slab resting on a large area of soil reinforced with steel, supporting columns or walls and transfer loads from the structure to the soil. Raft foundation is generally used to support structures like residential or commercial buildings where soil condition is poor, storage tanks, silos, foundations for heavy industrial equipment etc. Raft foundation transmits the total load from the building to the entire ground floor area. Stress distribution mechanism of raft foundation is very simple. Total weight of the structure and self-weight of the mat is calculated and is divided by the total area of the foundation it is covering to calculate the stress on the soil.

There are numerous advantages of using concrete pipe. Reinforced concrete pipe is the only rigid product that is both the structure and the conduit. The combination of concrete and reinforcement provide both compressive and tensile strength to the pipe. Concrete pipe is fire and weather resistant.
