Performance Assessment of Construction Chemical in Building Construction by Dr. Ashad Ullah Qureshi Pdf

Today there is practically no concrete without admixtures or construction chemicals. They are used in concrete at the time of construction or during maintenance/ repairs to produce several desirable properties. Twenty years ago, construction chemicals were rarely adopted in India, but today there is a great awareness among practicing Engineers, contractors and public about the use of construction chemicals. To suit the demand, in India, a number of companies are emerging in the field of construction chemicals. Plenty of such products are available in the market. But there are no specifications and standards about their usage. In the absence of these norms, the companies advertise their products as Hi-tech and Super stuff. The only literature available is the manufacturers' brochures. Therefore the user finds it very difficult to choose a particular product. A comprehensive study about these chemicals was made in this work to evaluate their performance by conducting a series of laboratory tests

Performance Assessment of Concrete Structures and Engineered Barriers for Nuclear Applications by Valérie L'Hostis,Robert Gens Pdf

The main outcomes of RILEM TC-226-CNM are summarized in this book. Key input was provided by researchers from countries that are main contributors in the R&D, design, construction, operation, and regulation of waste nuclear reinforced concrete facilities. Nuclear power plants and many of the facilities and structures used for the management of radioactive waste materials generated by the fuel cycle use concrete in their construction. RILEM TC 226 CNM covered several areas including functional and performance requirements for concrete structures; degradation processes; phenomenological modelling, field experiences, tests approaches, instrumentation and monitoring methods dedicated to performance assessments; service-life models; aging Management of Nuclear Power Plants, repair techniques; codes and standards specific to radioactive waste facilities.

Sustainable Building Design by Chitrarekha Kabre Pdf

This book bridges the gap between research and practice in the area of sustainable design of buildings, exploring the passive (climate-responsive) design and thermal behavior of buildings and ways to incorporate these enhancements in architectural and civil engineering practice. It presents climatic data and its analysis in a readily usable form and shows ways in which such data can be used to achieve passive (climate-responsive) and sustainable building design. The book presents case studies of sustainable building in each of five climatic zones of India. The book includes climatic data from 62 cities in India and describes how it can be synthesized in sustainable building design. The book can serve as a practical tool or handbook for architects, engineers, and designers, providing them with an understanding of the physical phenomena involved and a means for suitably implementing and applying passive (climate-responsive) design principles. It also offers a valuable resource for researchers, students, and policymakers working in the area of sustainable building design and construction.

Sustainable Development of Smart Cities Infrastructure (SDSCI-2023) (Volume-2) by H.K. Sharma,Arun Goel,Pankaj Munjal Pdf

Sustainable development of smart cities infrastructures is of paramount importance and need to be planned, designed, constructed, operated and de-commissioned in a manner that ensures economic, social, environmental and institutional sustainability over the entire infrastructure life cycle. Smart cities infrastructure however be cost effective, disaster resilient, environmentally friendly, conserving natural resources, and sustainable ensuring faster delivery of quality and durable structures which include roads, building, bridges, energy and water infrastructures. Government of India is going to encourage Public Private Partnership (PPP) as an alternate option to build most of the infrastructures, which can be useful both for green-field as well as brown-field smart cities projects. The present book is a collection of contributed research and review papers presented at the ‘National Conference on Sustainable Development of Smart Cities Infrastructure’ (SDSCI-2023) held at National Institute of Technology, Kurukshetra in May 2023.The subject matter is grouped into nine sessions which include research articles pertaining to sustainable development of smart cities, urban and rural planning, transportation, built environment and management, sustainable and smart technologies, materials, construction and maintenance, advance modelling, characterization of structures, energy and environment, performance of smart cities infrastructure under extreme loading conditions, green buildings, structural health monitoring, and ICT in smart cities, data mining and machine learning for sustainable infrastructure, GIS and remote sensing, future trends and prospects of smart cities, innovative technologies, building energy and efficiency and sobriety, and sustainable resilience to natural and man-made disasters, and smart materials, etc. The book would be a valuable reference for researchers, students, structural designers, site engineers, and all related engineers involved in the field of sustainable development of smart cities infrastructure.
