Can a keyway act or be considered as a waterstop?
Is curing required for lean concrete under foundations and how many days curing to be done by water. pls. provide reference also.
please tell me that nominal mix for concrete taken as per IS are volume mix or weight mix.
kindly let me know the answer at my email id if u can.
sir,
I would like to know the quantity of metal and sand in cubic feet required for a 50 bag cement pcc . i would also like to know the similar quantities of metal and sand for a 325 bag rcc.kindly reply me at the earliest.
sir, do you tell me the procedures to write a site report?
sir,i am a second year architecture and urban planning student at Gondar university technology faculity and i am working on making recycled blocks by already used materials specifically by, wood pieces(as fillers and means of achieving cohesion between ingredients),glass pieces(as FA and CA for giving the block a high density property),wood ash(as a binding with gypsum),gypsum(as a binding element) and ” misir cola” with water (as solvent.”misir cola” is a material locally used by Ethiopians.)
My aim is producing a block which is economical, high density and have simple and short way to make .I will be so glad if you say something.
Dear Sir,
I want to make RCC ceiling strong but economical way. Need your guidance. Please

fnd out the allowable axle load in a timber bridge with 50 mm planks supported on stringers at 600 mm interval .
Respected sir,
I am very much confused about the scope of civil engineering in India.
I am pursuing Diploma in Civil eng. from ICE, India and planning to pursue further courses as well.
Please elaborate me the future of this field, so that I can put myself into it.
What will be the possible effect of cement quality variability on concrete properties or to the end users of cement in real life situation?
sir, i have a small doubt why so many states in india not adopting the new technologies like plastic road construction . when compared to plain bitumen roads these are having so many benefits and cost of construction also reduces.
if sufficient lap length was not provided during tying what was the remedial action, can by welding we reduce the lap lenght.
Dear Engineers,
What is the mix design procedure of Foam Concrete for various compressive strengths ranging from M5 to M15.
sir i need a association name like RACE(royals association of civil engineers)
sir plz give me a tag line abt civil engineering. To make that line one our college t-shirt plz
