the split tensile strength of cylinder as per IS : 5816 1999[14]at 7, 28and 56 days of curing. 6.2.1 Results of Compressive Strength Test For compressive strength test, cube specimens of dimensions 150 x 150 x 150 mm were cast for M60 grade of concrete. The moulds were filled with different proportions of cement,metakaolin and Fly Ash. Vibration was given to the moulds using the table vibrator. The top surface of specimen was leveled and finished. After 24 hours the specimens were demoulded and

to their architecture and culture. When building, Romans used quite a few different materials for certain aspects of architecture. “Long before concrete made its appearance on the building scene in Rome, the Romans utilized a volcanic stone native to Italy called Tufa to construct their buildings” ( Dr. Jessica Ambler). When the Romans did use concrete, they didn’t see it as very appealing or stunning. So, instead of leaving it bare, they usually covered it with other materials such as brick and

student enrolment at Unitec over years, it is becoming essential to find a viable alternative to the current open car parks on campus to improve parking capacity near Entry 3 and Entry 4. The aim of this project is to construct a four-storey reinforced concrete car park building on time, on budget, to required standards, with minimal adverse effects on the surrounding environment and without compromising the health and safety of the workers and the general public. 2 ESTABLISHMENT The purpose is to ensure

When the FRP-confined concrete columns are subjected to axial compressive loads, the concrete core starts to expand laterally and this expansion is resisted by a confining stress provided by the FRP jacket. The value of such lateral confining pressure is a function of the strength and amount of FRP wrap and the column’s cross-sectional dimension. For example, when confining concrete in a circular shape, the FRP jacket provides a uniform pressure around the perimeter resulting a great improvement

when Durability properties of Concrete is considered. Durability of Concrete using Granite Fines is almost same as that of reference mix (GF0), However at 30% replacement compared to other proportions yielded better durability. VI.

1.3.1. Cement Cement is a fine, soft, powdery-type substance. Concrete is a fine, delicate, fine sort substance. It is produced using a blend of components that are found in natural raw materials, for example, limestone, mud, sand and/or shale. At the point when cement is blended with water, it can tie sand and rock into a hard, strong mass called concrete. Cement is a binder, a utilized as a part of construction that sets and hard and can bind tie different materials together. The most important

function of the temple, which was to display the political, economic and social importance of the benefactor. This personal glory for the donor was achieved through the Temple’s function and he was able to cut costs using concrete. However, in addition to cutting costs, concrete also proved to be a necessary tool in the advancement of Romans arch technology when location became an obstacle. This innovation is exemplified in Sanctuary of Fortuna Primigenia. The location of this temple at the top of

Now assistant engineer Mr. Tarun bika explained me about following concepts or terms used in construction. FOUNDATION:- Now he showed me the foundation plan of the building and explained me about footing . There are two types of foundations :- a. Shallow foundation. b. Deep foundation. At construction site only shallow foundation was given. SHALLOW FOUNDATION:- Shallow foundations transmits structural loads to the soil strata at a relatively small depth.these are laid at a depth D not exceeding
