Abstract: Sand is an universal constructional material in civil engineering applications, to reduce impact on this and to generate characteristics like strength, RHA has been identified an alternative to sand. In this connection, various percentages of Rice Husk Ash were added to the sand and tested for compaction; shear strength and CBR characteristics..........

Abstract: As per CTBUH norms all Spires are counted in official height measurements of buildings. Thus most of the modern high-rise building features tall spires on top of the building to get included in super tall category. Spire has a large ratio of height (H) to least horizontal dimension (D) that makes it a more slender and wind-sensitive than any other structures. In the past several years, many accidents and much damage were caused by high wind or wind-induced vibrations in such structures. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to develop the wind-resistant design (WRD) procedure for the slender, tapered spires subjected to wind-induced excitation.

Abstract: Entering the era of regional autonomy, the construction activities on buildings in the district/city continues to increase. District/city government should be ready to control such development. For that, we need adequate legislation that the pace of construction of buildings in the area under control. The goal for the development and use of buildings can be orderly so manifest building reliable, and in harmony with the environment...........

Abstract: At present the performance aspect of concrete has generated a lot of importance. This emphasis on performance has given rise to the development of Self Compacting Concrete (SCC). The features of mix proportion of SCC include low water to cementitious material ratio, high volume of powder, high paste to aggregate ratio and less amount of coarse aggregate[1]............

Abstract: The advanced composite materials such as Graphite, Carbon, Kevlar and Glass with suitable resins are widely used because of their high specific strength (strength/density) and high specific modulus (modulus/density). The weight reduction of the drive shaft can have a certain role in the general weight reduction of the vehicle and is a highly desirable goal, if it can be achieved without increase in cost and decrease in quality and reliability............

Abstract: Our topic deals with the concept of concrete technology which includes the study of advanced internal curing by light weight aggregates. As per conventional method, water is provided externally for curing. In conventional type of curing is extensively done in which large amount of water is wasted, so in accordance to this, new technique of internal curing is introduced in which use of pre wetted light weight aggregates is done which provides sufficient moisture to the hydrating cement throughout the cross section of the concrete. These pre-wetted light weight aggregates assures that water is restored in the concrete which would allow the concrete to use the water as per the need.

Abstract: In hot and humid conditions the need to feel relaxed and comfortable has become one of few needs and for this purpose utilization of systems like air-conditioning and refrigeration has increased rapidly. These systems are most of the time not suitable for villages due to longer power cut durations and high cost of products. Solar power systems being considered as one of the path towards more sustainable energy systems, considering solar-cooling systems in villages would comprise of many attractive features............
