DESIGN OF A LONG SPAN TRANSFER BEAM (REINFORCED CONCRETE) AND THE MODE OF CONSTRUCTION AND REMOVAL OF SCAFFOLDING TO CATER TO THE TRANSFER BEAM

Deep beams are very common construction component, which are often used in
civil engineering to carry loads for a big space. Transfer beam is used to distribute load
from above to the large column beneath it. This study is to design a transfer beam which
has a long span of So meters. Also to determine suitable formwork design, scaffolding
arrangements and construction methodology. A deep beam with long span like this will
tend to deflect or even worse fails, and the mid-span. Analysis has to be conducted to
study the behavior of this beam in order to avoid failure and minimize deflection over
tolerable limit. This study will covers from design and deep beam analysis, suitable
formwork design, scaffolding arrangements and construction methodology. Design
Reinforced Concrete, Beam analysis, Formwork design will be use as aid in this study.
