estimation of rc slabs and beams>

[hamzaumarkhan]

please can any one help me

I estimate there are 12 rc slabs and maybe 4-5 beams

ErieChch, that might not be conservative!

Thanks patswfc, I have read the code and yes you are right. 10 rc slabs and 4 beams is more appropriate.

hamzaumarkhan - as you can see from the posts above, you didn't really ask a question. If you want help, please ask clear and concise questions. Estimating could be estimating reinforcing, in which case the answer is either a) hire a structural engineer or b) read a concrete design textbook if you are a junior engineer aspiring to be a structural engineer and come back with specific questions about what you don't understand. It could be about cost estimating, which would be very regionally dependent. You could be asking for rules of thumb. Nobody really knows, because you didn't ask anything.

I didn't know there was such a think as remote control slabs and beams! Will wonders never cease!

Yea.

And a seismic joint is something you smoke after an earthquake.

Go figure.

I suppose he wants a couple of guidelines for material estimation here, but does need to state that.
