FERROCEMENT

FERROCEMENT IS A TYPE OF THIN

REINFORCED
CONCRETE
CONSTRUCTION
WHERE
CEMENT
MORTAR IS REINFORCED WITH LAYERS
OF COTINUOUS AND RELATIVELY SMALL
DIAMETER MESH.

FERROCEMENT CHAJJA

IT IS A COMPOSITE
MATERIAL.

PROPORTION 1:3.

LIGHT WEIGHT
REINFORCEMENT WIDELY
DISTRIBUTED.

THICKNESS 40mm.

MATERIAL REQUIRED

CEMENT
SAND
M.S.BRACKETS
NAILS
CHICKEN MESH/WIRE MESH.
WELD MESH
STEEL

PROCEDURE

PLASTER BREAKING.
LEVEL CHECKING
FIXING BRACKETS.
SHUTTERING.
PROVIDING CHICKEN
MESH OF 12mm x
12mm SIZE.

PROCEDURE

FIXING WELD MESH.

FIXING OF 6mm
STEEL BARS.
CHECK THE LEVEL
OF SHUTTERING.
CAST THE CHAJJA IN
1:3 PROPORTION OF
CEMENT MORTAR.

FERROCEMENT CHAJJA

ADVANTAGES

LIGHT WEIGHT.

EASY FOR CONSTRUCTIONS.

LONG LIFE TIME.

LOW MATERIAL EXPENDITURE.

OTHER APPLICATIONS

FERROCEMENT BOATS

FERROCEMENT HOUSES

SWIMMING POOL

WATER TANK.

CONCLUSION

FERROCEMENT IS A VERSATILE MATERIAL.

ADVANTAGEOUS FOR THIN SHELLS WHERE STRENGTH

AND RIGIDITY ARE DEVELOPED THROUGH SHAPE.

IT IS HOMOGENEOUS & ELASTIC AND HAS RELATIVELY

BETTER MECHANICAL PROPERTIES AND DURABILITY.

NON FLAMABLE & HIGH CORROSION RESISTANCE.
