    The document provides specifications for constructing a reinforced concrete cement (RCC) strong room for bank branches. It details that the walls should be 30 cm thick RCC with a 1:2:4 mix ratio. The floor should be 15 cm thick RCC with the same mix ratio. The ceiling should also be 30 cm thick RCC, but may alternatively be reinforced with metal grating if an RCC slab is not feasible. It provides minimum reinforcement requirements of 12 mm diameter steel rods placed every 6 inches in the walls, floor, and ceiling. Finally, it specifies air ventilator dimensions and that two should be provided if the strong room is divided into two portions.

    SPECIFICATION FOR CONSTRUCTING RCC STRONG ROOM (B CLASS)

    The specifications for strong room for branches are detailed hereunder:
    I. THE SPECIFICATIONS FOR THE STRONG ROOM ARE AS FOLLOWS:

    WALLS : R C C 1:2:4 30 cm (12) thick


    FLOOR : R C C 1:2:4 15 cm (6) thick

    FLOOR:

    15 cm (6 thick) heavily reinforced over the existing plain cement concrete


    flooring for vaults in Ground floors and over existing RCC slabs in vaults in
    upper floor ( the strength of the slab in such case will have to be checked to
    allow for the additional dead and super imposed load).

    CEILING - R C C 1:2:4

    30 cm (12 thick). Where it is not feasible to provide a RCC slab as specified,


    the ceiling may be fortified with MS grills consisting of 20 mm rods spaced 75
    mm c/c in angle iron frame work.

    Reserve Bank of India has specified ceilings fortification only in cases where it
    is not feasible to provide RCC slab of specified thickness.

    If it is not possible to provide the strong room with the ceiling of prescribed
    thickness of 30 cms (12) or provide fabrication with MS grills, RBI would be
    prepared to consider relaxation of the existing specification on merits of
    individual cases, provided the floor space directly above the strong room is also
    in the possession and occupation of the Bank.

    II. THE MINIMUM REINFORCEMENTS AS ADVISED BY RBI ARE GIVEN BELOW:


    WALLS :

    12 mm dia mild Steel/tor steel @ 6c/c both ways and on both faces of the wall
    (a formation of reinforcement matt of about 6x 6) on either face of the wall
    to be obtained.

    FLOOR : Same as in the case of walls but only on one face.


    CEILINGS : Same as in the case of walls.

    Further where reinforcement is proposed on two faces of a RCC member, it


    shall be staggered in such a manner that any view taken at right angles to the
    matt formation would show reinforcement at every (3) c/c in elevation ( in
    respect of walls) and in plan (in respect of ceiling slab).

    The above reinforcements are only the minimum and depending on the
    structural requirements, the structural consultants for the work, should design
    and detail out actual reinforcements required but these shall not be less than
    what are specified above.

    III COLUMN SIZES :

    Two columns of 10"x10" size with 6 nos of 12 mm dia TOR Steel main rods and
    6 mm dia binder rods are to be done only after fixing the door and ascertaining
    the plumb line.

    IV AIR VENTILATORS GODREJ STEELAGE


    Overall opening 24"x24" 24"x24"
    Clear opening 18"x18" 18"x18"

    When the strong room is divided into 2 portions for cash and lockers, two
    ventilators for both the rooms are to be provided. The Air ventilator/s should
    not be fixed on the exterior / outer walls.
