Effect of Viscoelastic Dampers on Progressive Collapse Resistance of RC Building
Abstract: Natural as well as man-made hazards may cause the failure of the primary load bearing members of buildings. The spread of an initial local failure from element to element, eventually result into the collapse of an entire structure or a large part of it, which is known as Progressive Collapse. Progressive collapse initiates when one or more primary load bearing elements get fails causing failure of the entire structure. It …

Comparative Study of Corrosion Resisting Behavior of Steel Reinforcement
Abstract: The corrosion of reinforcing steel in concrete had received increasing attention in recent years because of the severe damage to concrete structures. It is so severe that we need a high cost dramatic repair of the structure. The corrosion of reinforcing steel results mainly from the destruction of the protective oxide film by chloride attack or/and carbonation of the concrete. Extensive research into factors contributing to corrosion of reinforcing steel …

Development of Primer as a Value Added Product from Waste PET
Abstract: Polyethylene terephthalate was depolymerized by two different chemical recycling techniques i.e. glycolysis and aminolysis. Glycolysis is carried out with Zinc hydroxide and with conventional catalyst i.e. Zinc acetate for the comparable yield of the monomer. Glycolysis is carried out with ethylene glycol whereas aminolysis is done with ethanolamine. Products obtained from both the techniques namely Bis(2-hydroxyethyl) terephthalate (BHET) and Bis(2-hydroxyethyl) terephthalamide (BHETA) have different chemical structure but have hydroxyl functionality …
