    Stabilization of Black Cotton Soil with Blending of Coir Fiber

    Abstract: Stabilization of soil is a major challenge in civil engineering. About 20 % of land area in India is covered by black cotton soil. Structures built on black cotton soil may be damaged because of high swelling and shrinkage characteristics of this soil with variation of water content. Black cotton soil is an expansive soil which loses its strength in presence of water. On the other hand, it reflects behavior …

    Analytical Determination of Strength of Demolished Recycled Coarse Aggregate

    Abstract: Construction work has increased rapidly from the past two decades. With these construction activities going up, we find lacking of the construction materials, particularly aggregates. So, finding an alternate resource and their feasibility; study is the need of our project. Recycled or used aggregate proves to be a good alternative here. Therefore, the investigation was carried out using compressive strength test, confined to the objective we have tested and empirically …

    Effect of partial replacement of marble dust on concrete with addition of coconut coir: A review paper

    Abstract: AbstractConcrete is the most important construction element and it is utilized in the construction because of its high compression power and its durability. Now a day’s different studies have been performed to compose concrete with waste substance with the aim of decreasing rate and unavailability of conventional materials. This study examined the strength properties of concrete samples produce using waste marble dust as substitution of aggregates by different researchers. Marble …
