Effect of Steel Fibre Reinforcement on Early Strength of Concrete IJTSRD
Cement concrete is the most extensively used construction material in the world. The reason for its extensive use is that it provides good workability and can be moulded to any shape. Ordinary cement concrete possesses a very low tensile strength, limited ductility and little resistance to cracking, internal micro cracks, leading to brittle failure of […]
Utilization of Recycled Coarse Aggregate for Concrete Production IJTSRD
The utilization of recycled aggregate on compressive strength of concrete is investigated in this research. In the experimental, five types of concrete mixtures were tested: concrete made with natural aggregate as a control concrete and five types of concrete made with natural fine and recycled coarse aggregate (10%, 20%, 30% and 50%) replacement of coarse […]
Role of Thermoplastic Granulus for the Improvement of Strength of Clay Soil IJTSRD
Soil stabilization is any process which improves the physical properties of soil, such as increasing shear strength, bearing capacity etc. which can be done by use of controlled compaction or addition of suitable admixtures like cement, lime and waste materials like fly ash, phosphogypsum etc. The cost of introducing these additives has also increased in […]
Experimental Study on High Strength Concrete using Industrial Wastes IJTSRD
Generally the river sand is used as a fine aggregate on concrete and is obtained by mining the sand from river bed. Increased sand mining not only affects the aquifer of the river bed but also causes environmental problems. In recent days demand for river sand is increasing due to its lesser availability. Therefore the […]
Study for Comparison on Design of Steel Frame using Rolled, Fabricated and PEB Sections IJTSRD
Recently, the introduction of Pre Engineered Building PEB design of structures has been as an optimised alternative for the construction of steel sheds. The adoption of PEB design concept instead of use of traditional rolled section resulted in many advantages as the sections are designed as per bending moment diagram thereby reducing the material requirement.
