Trang 172.3 READING
Read this text and answer some questions
A building is made up of various types of structural elements such as beams, girders, trusses, columns, walls, frames, roofs, etc They can be used independently or incombination to establish a structural system
Columns and beams may be constructed of wood, steel or reinforced concrete Cast iron was widely used at once time for columns and for short beams such as lintels, but steel and reinforced concrete has largely replaced it Nowadays, wrought iron has been entirely replaced by steel Reinforced concrete beams and columns may be poured in a place to form a rigid frame In industrial buildings, they are usually prefabricated in a factory or in a casting yard
Truss is a member consisting of a group of triangles, arranged in a single plane, long span trusses are usually constructed of steel, others are constructed of wood or reinforced concrete Most trusses are pre- cast units
Rigid frames are constructed of wood, reinforced concrete and steel
Floors are usually constructed of wood, reinfored concrete Concrete beams, girders, and floors slabs may be poured in place, occasionally, they are precast units The walls of a dwelling house are usually constructed of bricks, or stone, In multi- storey buildings, they are constructed of wall panels A building may be classified on the basic of the function of the walls If the walls carry the loads, in addition to keeping out the weather, the building is classified as wall bearing construction But if the loads including the weight of the wall are carried by the structural frame, the building is classified as skeleton structure In this case, the walls are to keep our the weather, so they are called curtain walls
The roof of a dwelling house is usually a gable roof, consisting of king- post trusses, purpling, rafters which are covered with tiles In most buildings, the roof is a reinforced concrete flat roof, which is poured in place Precast roof slabs may be used particularly in industrial buildings
Trang 18Questions:

4.3 READING
Read this text and answer these questions:
Concrete is a mixture of small, strong stones, cement and water, which has been densely compacted and left to mature It is very strong in compression and is durable
As it cracks when stretches, it is designed to contain bars of embedded steel This reinforced concrete is the most versatile and cheapest structural material available It is even more effective if the steel reinforcement in the concrete is tightened up or pre- stressed
The concrete frame is made by pouring the wet mixture into mould and leaving it to harden If the process is carried out in a factory, the concrete is called precast If the moulds are used on the site, it is called insitu concrete The joints between the pieces
of concrete can be very neatly made, and an infinite variety of moulded shapes become available
1 What kinds of raw materials can be used to make concrete?
2 What are advantages of concrete?
3 In what case can concrete crack and how to solve that?
4 How to make concrete more effective?
5 How many ways are applied for making concrete? What are they?
