Exploring Building Information Modeling
Abstract: A process which generate and manage digital presentation of functional characteristics of places is known as building information modeling (BIM). BIM is helpful to exchanged, mined a building or additional built asset. Nowadays for preparing plan, design operate and maintain infrastructure such as water, electricity, gas, roads, bridges, ports and tunnels, etc. BIM is commonly use. In this paper, we are trying to execute the work of BIM for 3D …

Utilization of Pond Ash as a Partial Replacement of Fine Aggregate Using Alccofine in Conventional Concrete
Abstract: Pond ash is the byproduct and is produce from coal plants. These plants release byproduct in major quantity which effects the environment. In this paper, an experimental work has been done on the conventional concrete with pond ash as replacement of fine aggregate. The grade of the concrete is M-40 and nine concrete mixes named as F1, F2, F3, G1, G2, G3, G4, G5 and G6 were prepared with different …

Risk Assessment in Indian Construction Projects Using Modified Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process
Abstract: Construction projects are initiated in dynamic environment which creates circumstances of high uncertainty and risks due to accumulation of many interrelated parameters. So, the need for establishing a systematic risk assessment for construction projects has increased more than ever before with the additional fact that the construction projects are becoming increasingly complex and dynamic. The aim of this paper is to provide a risk assessment methodology that provides a decision …

Survey Study on Environment Impact Assessment in Construction: A Review
Abstract: Rapid expansion of industry and population in India has transfering of people from villages to cities, which has enhanced human settlement in world’s rising towns and cities. This generates several problems related to the atmosphere. Environmental impact assessment (EIA) is now a very vital study before communing of any project idea or expansion in our country. The EIA study is necessary to arrange a detailed account of environmental effect of …

A Review of Ecofriendly Bricks by Using Fly Ash
Abstract: Concrete, steel and bricks are commonly used materials in construction practice, of which, bricks are most commonly used constituent. Masonry walls are commonly used in partition thereby large numbers of brick elements are required in construction of building. In this paper, various types of manufacturing of bricks were studied. Optimum percentage of fly ash using various combinations of material in the brick like lime, cement and clay are studied and …

Effect of Construction Load on RC Floor Slab
Abstract: In reinforced concrete building structures, floors are added from bottom to top sequentially.The load due to construction of new floor is transferred to the lower floor slab through shoring. Different construction practices are adopted at work sites for the transfer of this load. The effect of construction practices was reviewed. The threshold value for bending moment under construction load is marked to provide the caution against the possible failure of …

Reviewing Some Properties of Concrete Containing Recycled Concrete Aggregates
Abstract: Concrete being most commonly used construction material, is largely responsible for exhaustion of natural resources. The construction activities around the world generate millions tons of Construction and Demolition Wastes (CDW) every year. This waste generated from the construction activities and demolition of old structures is becoming a major concern for the modern society. Thus, the construction industry is more attracted towards the use of alternate materials so that the impact …

Development of Structural Health and Damage Assessment Chart of a Building
Abstract: As the requirement of infrastructure is increasing day by day, process of new construction is increasing rapidly but the quantity of old infrastructures is more, also new construction has some limitations, so the pre-constructed structures should be maintained properly to achieve their full life and also to reach economic balance. Building structures deteriorate with respect to time due to various environmental conditions like temperature, presence of moisture, humidity and gases, …

Optimum Location of Shear Wall with Plan Irregularity of Multistoried Structure for Wind Analysis Using E-Tab
Abstract: Shear wall are used to elongate the strength and stiffness of structure, equal length and width of shear wall is maintained in the models, which are modeled in E-TAB software. In this chronicle, different irregular shapes “h” and “J” shapes are considered with different location of shear wall in it to see the structure in terms of reliability. The structure is 15 storied high which has height of 52 m …
