Compressive and Tensile Behavior of Lime Added Geopolymer Concrete.
Abstract: Concrete is the most used material, which required large quantities of Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC). OPC production is held responsible for some of the CO2 emissions, which polluted the atmosphere. Hence, it is inevitable to find an alternative material to OPC. Geopolymer concrete is a best alternative which shall be produced by the chemical action of inorganic molecules. This paper focuses fly-ash based Geopolymer concrete with addition of lime. In …

Analysis of Specially Configured Large Ferrocement Water Tank
Abstract: Ferrocement construction technology is quite popular throughout the world for a long time. Ferrocement, a thin element composite of cement concrete mortar, wire mesh with skeleton steel is used as a building construction as well as a repair material. In this work, a special configuration is selected with different bar arrangement used for supporting skeleton steel in a large ferrocement water tank. Welded wire mesh is used in this water …

Seismic Analysis of Symmetrical and Unsymmetrical Multistory Building with Shear Wall and Hybrid Shear Wall
Abstract: Shear walls are structural systems which provide stability to structures from lateral loads like wind, seismic load. Shear walls are added to the building interior to provide more strength and stiffness to the building when the exterior walls cannot provide enough strength and stiffness. It is necessary to provide these shear walls when the tolerable span width ratio for the floor or roof diaphragm is exceeded. Shear walls are mainly …

Experimental Investigation of Effect of Soil Structure Interaction on Buildings
Abstract: In the conventional analysis and design, buildings are generally considered to be fixed at their bases, but in actual practice, the support condition depends on the type of soil on which it is founded. The flexibility of the soil medium allows the movement of soil and foundation, which decreases in the overall stiffness of building frames and results in a subsequent increase in natural periods of the system. Thus, the …
