Everything You Need TO Know About TIE BEAMS

The tie beam is a terminology used for a beam whose function is not to carry the slab load but just to act as a stiffner to the columns and thereby reduce the long column effect. Sometimes it also acts as a damp proof course at the plinth level and as a seperator for ventilators and doors when placed at the lintel level. -~-~~-~~~-~~-~- Please watch: “RCC E03: Design of Beam for Shear[Theory]“ -~-~~-~~~-~~-~-
