Optimization of Cement Replacement by Fly Ash in Compressive Strength of Portland Cement Concrete
Abstract: The production of cement has been known for its additive role in environmental pollution. As a measure of abatement of pollution effort, scientist have evoked the concept of diluting cement with various pozzolanic additive like fly ash, blast furnace slag etc. Many of these additives were found to be acceptable for cement replacement, but their exact role and efficacy remains elusive. In the present study, fly ash was added as …

Effect of Compressibility on Undrained Bearing Pressure of Circular Footing Resting on Two-Layered Clay
Abstract: The present study aims to investigate the behavior of a circular foundation on layered clay of varying properties. There are several solutions for the bearing capacity of footings on two-layered clays, but none of them considered the compressibility of the strata. An underestimation of the soil bearing capacity is the main cause of failures. The typical difficulty in estimating the capacity of soil is its complicated behavior attributed to the …

Experimental Analysis of Wheel Load on Tunnels
Abstract: Construction of tunnels in urban areas for various purposes such as underground transportation and sewage disposal usually includes excavation in soil or semi-rigid media. The need for analysis of wheel loads on tunnels arises due to the future development in the area above the tunnel. If it is a road development, as vehicles pass through it, load of those vehicles may finally act upon the tunnel. But for the present …
