The zen of insitu beam casting

Thankfully this will be the last round of insitu beams that need to be cast. These are for strengthening the openings where the slab will be placed on. It generally involves iron rods inserted through iron stirrups and then cast on site in concrete. An engineer provides drawings and requirements and needs to check it before casting.





Not wanting to remove the doors for security reasons, we have to cast the beam in the wall.



Metal rods tied together before it gets cast in concrete.
