Effect of Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag as Partial Cement Replacement on Compressive Strength of Concrete
Abstract: AbstractThe main objective of this research work is to determine the optimum replacement percentageof GGBS which can be suitably used. To fulfill the objective, various properties of concreteusing GGBS have been evaluated. Mix design has been arrived for M25 concrete. Fineness,specific gravity (cement and GGBS), normal consistency, initial and final setting time andcompressive strength of cement have been found out. Particle size distribution, bulking of fineaggregate, specific gravity, water absorption …

Challenges of RERA: An analysis of New Reforms
Abstract: AbstractMaking it into the list with names like The United States of America, Germany, China,Singapore and UAE, India has finally received a green light. In contrast, where a developed country like US had it implemented in 1974, the time lag of 42 years in India raises a number of questions. After a long wait of 9 years, Real Estate Regulation and Development act, 2016 (RERA) has eventually come into force. …

‘B’ash Concrete: Partial replacement of cement with Bagasse ash
Abstract: AbstractConcrete is an absolutely effective and essential construction material used all over the world because of it advantageous properties. But the increase in cost of cement and environmental pollution caused by cement manufacturing not only increase the cost of construction but also poses a serious threat to the environment. The utilization of industrial and agricultural waste produced by their processes has been used reduce waste for making economic, environmental, and …

Experimental Study on Compressive Strength of Ferrocement
Abstract: AbstractFerrocement construction technology is quite popular throughout the world. Ferrocement as thin material can be used as building components as well as a repair material. Ferrocement composite consists of cement-sand mortar with wire mesh to produce elements of small thickness having high durability, resilience and when properly shaped, it has high strength and rigidity. Ferrocement differs from conventional reinforced concrete or prestressed concrete primarily on the basis of nature, placing …

Study of Seismic Performance of G+50 Storey Building with Different Locations of Shear Wall and with Diagrid
Abstract: AbstractThe present study investigates the behavior of G+50 storey octagonal shaped buildingprovided with shear wall and diagrid at different locations; by inter-combining all theseparameters of shear wall and diagrid total six models of G+50 storey building are made. The dynamic analysis of G+50 storey octagonal shaped building with shear wall and diagrid at a different locations using response spectrum method is carried out by using structural analysis and design computer …
