Rainfall-runoff Relationship in Small Mountainous Catchments
Abstract: An event of stream danger was seen in a little watershed, where precipitation prompted a critical decrease in soil dampness content. This development of soil water can be perceived as sporadic motions as it streams into lower layers. This peculiarity includes a significant measure of water going through the dirt, contributing fundamentally to the general outpouring from the watershed. The precariousnessdriven stream hypothesis can depict this peculiarity, which emerges because …

Comparative study of various castellated beams with and without stiffeners
Abstract: use of the castellated beams has its own benefits as its reasonable gives additional strength by almost the same amount of material easily erectable. Studies associated with them demonstrate that quantifiable reduction in the weight of the structure is accomplished by allowing web openings without reducing structural strength or necessities of serviceability. They are made-up by cutting I section in the zigzag design to make shapes like circular hexagonal rectangular …

Sustainability of PPP Infrastructure Projects: Lessons from the Indian Experience
Abstract: Though the development of infrastructure projects either through private investment in case of public-private partnership (PPP) or using general funding, leads to the promotion of sustainable development (SD), but on account of giving more emphasis on the business interests of private sector there is the tendency of financial aspect taking precedence over the social and environmental aspects of sustainability. As a result, the infrastructure development through PPP route exhibits concerns …

Comparative Study between Conventional and High Strength Concrete
Abstract: The current trend of use of superlatives in concrete technology may strike as somewhat disconcerting to many. We had high strength concrete, hyper-plasticizer, and super plasticizers, very reactive Pozzolana, and now high performance concrete. It is difficult to imagine any concrete being manufactured and used, which is not intended to perform to the extent; high performance concrete is not a new material of construction. The sole distinction is the level …

Damage Assessment in Reinforced Concrete Structures
Abstract: Reinforced concrete structures are subjected to a pattern of loading in addition to deterioration with age during their service life, which lead to damage of the structure. Damage assessment is an integral part of structural health monitoring (SHM) which aims to detect, locate and quantify the damage as well as predict the remaining service ability of the structure. Damage assessment technique can be classified into either global or local methods. …

Utilization of Agricultural Waste for Defluoridation of Water: A Review
Abstract: Fluoride is an essential micronutrient for human health which can be obtained from food items. Excess fluoride is one of the anionic, inorganic contaminants, found predominantly in ground water due to weathering of rocks, geochemical reactions or anthropogenic activity such as disposal of industrial wastewaters, because of which removal of excess fluoride is mandatory. Among various methods used for defluoridation of water, adsorption is widely used. It is more remarkable …

Geotechnical Analysis of Stepped Gravity Walls
Abstract: Retaining walls are structures that help to maintain different elevations of the ground surface on either side of it. When the height of cut, backfill or slope is beyond a certain limit, a single gravity retaining wall becomes unfeasible and uneconomical. In such situations, stepped gravity walls can be an attractive option. The wall at each level of the retaining system should be checked for safety against sliding, overturning and …
