Site preparation & Installation :

Ring Beam Foundation
1. Material:

A ring beam foundation is made from reinforced concrete, which is essential for supporting the structural loads effectively.

2. Depth Considerations:

The depth of the ring beam is determined based on factors such as allowable soil-bearing pressures and topographical conditions. It is essential to analyze these variables to ensure the ring beam is appropriately designed for the site.

3. Sand Pad Requirements:

The sand pad should be level, stable, and free from sharp edges.

4. Design Considerations:

The foundation should be designed to accommodate various loads, including wind loads, seismic loads, and earthquake loads. These loads must be factored into the design to ensure the structure remains stable under all conditions.
