A Simplified Approach for Optimization of Tube System in Tall Buildings Introduction: Structural systems for tall buildings have undergone a dramatic evolution throughout the previous two decades and into the 2010s. Developments in structural form have historically been realized a response to emerging architectural trends in high-rise building design. The development of the original tubular systems for tall buildings was indeed predicated upon an overall building form of constant or smoothly varying

This paper presents the mechanical properties of high strength structural steel and mild structural steel at elevated tempera- tures. Mechanical properties of structural steel at elevated temperatures are important for fire resistant design of steel structures. However, current design standards for fire resistance of steel structures are mainly based on the investigation of hot-rolled carbon steel with normal strength, such as mild steel. The performance of high strength steel at elevated temperatures

The theoretical perspective I most closely identify with would be the structural functionalist perspective. The idea that most appeals to me about this perspective is how everything in society is viewed as being interconnected. The main issue I have with other perspectives, like the conflict perspective, is that they classify people into two groups, the haves and have-nots. I think our society is much too diverse to simply categorize people into such broad groups. Another idea I don’t like in

Structural violence is an invisible force that can display at every level of society from individuals to a whole country through various forms such as access to health care, resources and political rights. Structural violence can be referred as a form of oppression through social and political injustices that are imposed on unprivileged populations or communities of the society. Some of the contributing factors into structural violence mentioned by Paul Farmer in “On Suffering and Structural Violence:

hold PDC accountable for unfair labor laws. In 1981, an economic recession affected the price of precious metals, including copper. In 1982, PDC faced three challenges: international competition, hard bargaining unions, and resistance to internal changes. PDC was forced to terminate 3,400 miners’

The Washington Consensus (the Consensus) and related structural adjustment provisions (SAPs) are methods of economic policymaking for a developing society. It has bred a neoliberalist miasma in Latin America, asserting themes of privatisation, deregulation and liberalisation. Here, Williamson (2000) proposes a tripartite argument for the Consensus; rapid economic development is ingrained in nation policies; supplementary focus of such policies as ‘pro-poor’, aimed at poverty reduction; and governmental

episode I shall describe a position that I currently occupy. I have been working at Mashiul Alam + Associates since March 2012 to till date. It is situated in Chittagong, Bangladesh.

Tahmidul Islam Farabi 06 02 03 031 4th Year 2nd Semester Department of Civil Engineering Ahsanullah University of Science & Technology Pavement The road pavement is the actual surface on which the vehicles will travel. It's purpose is two fold, to provide friction for the vehicles and to transfer normal stresses to the underlying soils. Typically, pavements are built for three main purposes: 1.
