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. …

Evaluation of Different Pre and Post - Emergence Herbicides for Silybum Marianum L. Control in Wheat (Triticum Aestivum L.)
Abstract: Milk thistle (Silybum marianum L.) is an emerging destructive weed of field crops and waste lands in Pakistan. This field experiment was conducted to evaluate different pre- and post-emergence herbicides for Silybum marianum L. control in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). Randomized Complete Block design (RCBD) with split plot arrangement having three replications was employed. The application of Bromoxynil+MCPA to wheat crop showed maximum plant height (94.75 cm), number of productive …

Cementing Sustainability: Utilizing Waste Foundry Sand to Enhance Concrete Performance and Reduce Environmental Impact
Abstract: The incorporation of waste foundry sand into concrete production represents an environmentally conscious and cost-effective approach. This method involves substituting discarded foundry sand for a portion of traditional fine aggregates in concrete mixtures. The primary objective is to address environmental concerns associated with waste disposal while simultaneously achieving cost efficiency in construction materials. By integrating waste foundry sand into concrete, this practice promotes sustainability by reducing landfill waste and conserving …

Optimal Dosage of Pumice in Lightweight Aggregate based Conc
Abstract: Lightweight concrete (LWC) is a pioneering solution in the construction sector, characterized by its unique composition and versatile applications. Engineered with lightweight aggregates and additives, LWC achieves a significant reduction in dry density compared to conventional concrete, making it 23% to 87% lighter, with densities ranging from 300 to 1,840 kg/m³. This reduced weight makes LWC ideal for projects requiring load minimization, such as high-rise buildings and prefabricated elements. A …
