An Experimental Studyon Behaviourof Piled Raft Foundation
Abstract: Piles in piled raft are often considered as settlement reducers, not load bearing members. Theexperimental study focuses on the behaviour of piled raft foundation subjected to vertical load. The model rafts were made of mild steel plateswith plan dimension 160 mm ×160 mm × 10 mm. The model piles used in this test were non-displacement piles of diameter 10 mm.Three lengths of piles were used in the experiment to represent …

Optimal Design of Gusset plate and Analysis of Bailey Steel Truss Joint
Abstract: In order to achieve safe and economic steel structure joint, we are going to design a gusset plate such that its shape is optimized by achieving the same amount of strength. In conventional method of designing a joint we make sure that gusset plate is able to bear the load and joint is safe, but lot of material is wasted where there is no stress induced. So, to avoid this …

Stabilization of Reinforced Earth Wall Backfill Using Steel Slag and Recycled PET Fiber: A Composite Material Approach
Abstract: Reinforced Earth (RE) walls are widely used in infrastructure due to their structural efficiency and ease of construction. However, they typically require high-quality granular backfill, which may not be readily available or cost-effective in many regions. This study investigates the potential of utilizing locally available sandy clay soil stabilized with industrial and plastic waste materials specifically 20% steel slag and 0.75% shredded polyethylene terephthalate (PET) fibers, as an alternative backfill …

Effect of Reinforcement on Bearing Capacity of Sand
Abstract: The reinforced earth concept, which is now being evaluated with increased significant encompasses formation of a composite of a soil with tension resistance reinforcing elements such as metallic and nonmetallic strips, bars, rods fibers or nets in the soil. The objective of using the reinforcement is to supress the normal tensile strains in the soil mass through frictional interaction. Flexible nature of reinforced earth mass enables it to withstand large …

Effectiveness of PTFE-Based Nano-coatings in Improving Corrosion and Wear Resistance of Stainless Steel
Abstract: Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) has emerged as a highly effective material for enhancing the durability and performance of metal surfaces, particularly in environments requiring superior corrosion resistance and low friction. This study investigates the application of PTFE coatings on various metallic substrates, with a focus on stainless steel and carbon steel, to improve their corrosion resistance, wear protection, and tribological performance. Utilizing advanced deposition techniques such as sol-gel and plasma spray, PTFE …

Exploring Lightweight and Earthquake-resistant Construction with Ferrocement Sandwich Panels
Abstract: The creation of sandwich panels made of ferrocement as non-load-bearing building components is examined in this study. The sandwich panels had one layer of wire mesh netting between two thin pieces of ferrocement for reinforcement. Two thin ferrocement layers strengthened with a thermocol sheet made up the sandwich sections. The two iron lattice sections were connected by steel wires. Three sandwich panels in total were made. Compared to traditional masonry …

Incorporating Material Fatigue Parameter Determine in The Rolling & Sliding Contact Fatigue Analysis of Gears
Abstract: As the material's intricate stresses and strains are always shifting during phases of loading, determining the predicted equipment working under rolling-sliding contact loads and their fatigue lives (wheels, bearings, and gears) is particularly difficult. Another difficulty is not knowing the precise characteristics of the material used to make the components, which is particularly noticeable. when it comes to heat-treated components, where the material characteristics' values can differ greatly among the …

Torsional Strengthening of RC Beam using Ferrocement Jacketing
Abstract: Due to the type of loading on the structure, it is generally known that there are four structural actions: axial force, shear, bending, and torsion. The reinforced concrete beams are said to be subjected to torsion, when the point of application of lateral loads does not coincides with shear center of the beam. These loads may be due to loading pattern or connection of beam. Torsional failure is typically seen …

Effect of Silicon Carbide Filler on Mechanical and Damping Behavior of Basalt/Stainless Steel Hybrid Laminated Composites
Abstract: This study consolidates three experimental investigations on hybrid laminated composites reinforced with basalt fibre, stainless steel (SS) wire mesh, and silicon carbide (SiC) filler using vacuum infusion moulding. Three laminates were fabricated with filler variations of 0%, 1.5%, and 3% by weight of matrix material, maintaining a stacking sequence of [0B/0W/45B/0W/0B/45W]s with a thickness of 4–5 mm. The first investigation focused on impact strength. Drop-weight impact testing revealed a steady …
