So if you have any query regarding the concerned matter, just drop a comment and we will try to solve it as soon as possible.
what are the std limits for Maximum Dry Density & Optimum moisture Content? & Where can i get this information?
I am manikandan, pursuing UG final year, am I doing my final year project under the topic of bio-concrete.
Since my project period is only 3 months, can u please tell how to proceed my project.
Actually I have planned to do following test,
1. Temperature condition( finished)
2. Bacterial alive condition ( finished for 60 day/ results-positive)
3. Strength determination for 3,7,14,21 (NDT) AND 28 (FULL LOAD CONDITION) by comparing with conventional concrete.(YET TO BE FINISHED)
PLEASE GIVE YOUR VALUABLE SUGGESTION TO PROCEED MY PROJECT
sir , we are on with our final year projects and we chose the design of wharf /fish landing center ..can you please suggest us the code for the design for the same and if possible some other books to refer on .
sir we are conducting symposium in our college please say me a name
May I know what will be the cube braking value for the 28 days, 14 days and 7 days.. I need the value of M20 concrete mix.
I want to prepare for gate examination through online…. Can you tell me some good sites for model ques and preparing…
The specific gravity and insitu void ratio of a soil deposit are 2.71 and 0.85 respectively. The value of the critical hydraulic gradient is wht? how can this be found out .?please mention the steps too.
sir,I am doing my project on earthquake resisting building by using super conductors.i want to know scope of this project.may i know the load carrying capacity of the super conductor.can you please give some suggestions for my work …..
The concrete testing laboratary showing 7 days cube result 7.2 N/mm2 and 28 days strength is also 7.2 N/mm2 for M 20 concrete for the same batch. Is it possible. I think there must be increase in the strength. The laboratory may be doing some mistake. What is your opinion.
I am doing thesis on GFRC and i want to know the methodology to be adopted for calculating the mix design for the same
what is the exact definition for moment of inertia,centroid and assumptions in structures i.e engineering mechanics, strength of materials, structural analysis.
Sir,
I would like to set up a Civil Engineering Material Testing Laboratory at Hyderabad.
I welcome guidance from our fellow Engineers in setting up the lab.
Thank you.
I would like to know where can i find general input prices, mainly about ready mixed concrete, reinforcement, formworks and skilled/semi-skilled/unskilled labour in different european countries. I have been looking for available information in reliable sources, trying to find the prices for these constructive elements, but it is being very difficult. Do you know if there are any construction cost databases on line (for example), where i can turn to?
Thank you very much
sir, I am a manufacturer of Concrete Interlocking Pavers Blocks, a common problem that i face is of abrasion of the top surface. We are using cement sand ratio as 1:2. please suggest a remedy to overcome this problem..
sir i am studying M.Tech final year in structural engineering and doing project on high strength geopolymer concrete so i need mix design value for M70 and M90 geopolymer concrete and also procedure for mix design….so please reply me
am a ugandan doing construction management, but my dream is to become a civil engineer and have friends who civil engineers. is there a way i can apply for scholarship outside my country
Sir, my problam railway FOB foundetion. Tell me more informetion.
in seismic analysis your result will give you in kn how to determine the equivalent earthquake magnitude base on the seismic analysis. or how to determine that your building can withstand an earthquake magnitude of 7 or 8
I am in search of a code published by Indian Road congress dealing with reinforcement detailing of concrete structures.Please provide me the code number
i am a civil engg. & how i prepare for interview?
