📌 Title Checking Beam Centering | Beam Width & Depth Measurement Before Beam Binding #CivilEngineering #Work 📌 Description In this video, we are showing how to check beam centering before beam binding (reinforcement tying). This is one of the most important steps in construction because if the formwork (shuttering) dimensions are not correct, then the beam size will not match the structural design. ✅ Step by Step Checking Process: Beam Centering Inspection – Ensure the beam shuttering is properly aligned and fixed with supports so that there is no bulging during concreting. Width Checking – Use a measuring tape to measure the clear width of the beam formwork. It should exactly match the drawing dimension (e.g., 9", 12", etc.). Depth Checking – Measure the depth of the beam including the slab thickness. This ensures the total height of the beam matches the structural drawing. Level & Alignment – Check whether the top level of the beam shuttering is aligned with the slab centering. Any mismatch can affect slab thickness. Formwork Tightness – Make sure there are no gaps or loose joints in the shuttering, otherwise concrete leakage may occur. Before Binding – Only after confirming all dimensions are correct, reinforcement binding should be started. ✅ Why This Check is Important? Prevents mistakes in beam size during concreting Ensures proper load transfer as per design Avoids slab level mismatch Saves cost and time of correction work This process is very useful for civil engineering students, junior engineers, site supervisors, and construction professionals who want to learn practical field checking methods. 👉 If you found this video useful, don’t forget to Like 👍, Share 🔗, Comment 💬, and Subscribe 🔔 to get more real site construction videos. #BeamCentering #BeamBinding #SlabCasting #CivilEngineering #ConstructionSite #FormworkChecking #BeamMeasurement #PracticalFieldWork #BuildingConstruction #StructuralEngineering
