Dear Sir, am doing my M.E 2 year.. am doing project in Flyash aggregates… i need to know the size of specimen for abrasion, attrition, impact test in concrete.. could you suggest ideas,,

SHEREEF M I says:

In the “INstitute for Steel Development And Growth” (INSDAG) report (3B+G+40 Storeyed residential building with steel-concrete composite option) mention about the design of star and L shaped column. But details description is not given for the same. Is their any Indian code book or design manuals, which preferred for design of star and L shaped columns..?

chinmay naik says:

sir am final year student of M.E. (Structural Engg.) my dissertation topic is “Effect of deleterious material this with add (clay lumps & 75 micron minus dust) in fine aggregate on compressive strength of concrete”.
I want to study this by adding clay lumps externally to washed sundried sand. am varying its contents from 0 to 5% in FA and 0 to 5% in CA. I want to know can I get appropriate results from that? as per IS 383-1970 limits are only 1 %
am going to cast cubes for and test it for 7 days and 28 days, is it necessary to test it on 14th day? and can it effect on long curing period………….
