Strength Assessment of RCC Beams Subjected to CorrosionBy Anand Kumar BG
Abstract: The damage assessment of civil structural members is one of the most important and recently emerging fields in engineering. Deterioration of a structure may occur due to a host of factors such as poor workmanship, improper maintenance, atmospheric effects, accidents, natural calamities. Certain causes like environmental effects, natural calamities cannot be controlled. Therefore, durability of concrete structures especially those exposed to aggressive environments is of great concern. Many deterioration causes …

Suitability of Crushed Ceramic Tiles as Fine Aggregates in Cement MortarBy Anand Kumar BG, Ravindra R, Patil Rooparchana
Abstract: Recycled aggregates shall make a vital contribution towards the reuse of construction demolition waste which is otherwise dumped indiscriminately. The technical feasibility of utilization of crushed waste ceramic tiles as fine aggregates in cement mortar isstudied.Physical characterization and comparison of the ceramic fine aggregates (CFAs) with natural fine aggregates(NFAs) was carried out and strength properties of cement mortar with ceramic fine aggregate were studied.The result was promising for a replacement …
