Analysis of Multistoried RCC Building with Dampers as Energy Dissipation System using ETABS
Abstract: In order to have earthquake resistant structures, fluid viscous dampers have been used.In present study G+7 Story buildings is compared with the seismic effect of structure with dampers and without dampers. In the present study the software ETABS 2017 have been used. Using response spectrum analyses the response of the RC building considered in the present study is evaluated and compared with and without FVD. This study investigates the influence …

Improving Highway Surface Course Properties of Asphalt Concrete for Heavy Traffic Loading using Mineral Fillers
Abstract: Failure signs seen on both rigid and flexible pavement as distresses is most often instigated by mix properties of the surface due to many factors. Traffic loading, Stripping or raveling is another possible cause of such effects. Stripping occurs when poor adhesion between asphalt cement and aggregate allows the aggregate at the surface to dislodge. As a result, mineral fillers in hot-mix asphalt concrete to obtain certain desirable properties has …

Seismic Performance Evaluation for Flat Slabs under Different Types of Soil Condition by Response Spectrum Method
Abstract: The study investigates the seismic performance of various types of flat slabs under different soil conditions by response sepctrum method. The studied flat slab buildings are G+7 stroies special moment resisting frame—flat plate slab (Model 1), flat slab with peripheral beam (Model 2) and flat slab with drop panel (Model 3), whicharemodeled by ETABS v. 2016. The response spectrum analyses are performed according to BNBC 2017, considering seismic zone Dhaka …

Experimental Investigation of Plastic mix Concrete for Pavement Quality Concrete (PQC)
Abstract: ABSTRACT: This project is particularly dealt with the possibility and analysis of using waste Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) in M40 grade of concrete (from IRC 44) as a partial replacement of fine aggregate with varying percentage of 0%, 2.5%, 7.5%, 12.5%. Various tests performed on cement-like specific gravity, fineness, setting time, standard consistency, etc. on coarse aggregate such as sieve analysis, fineness modulus, specific gravity, etc. On fresh concrete-like slump cone …

Development of sustainable GGBS and FLYASH based Geo-polymer Concrete
Abstract: Construction has been most important human activity since ancient time. Concrete is widely used and trustworthy material for construction. Some of challenges in industry are global warming and insufficiency of construction material. One of the methods for replacing concrete constituents is the use of geo-polymer which helps in using very less quantity of cement in concrete. This project represents study on the mechanical properties of geopolymer concrete with various mixes. …
