Properties of Concrete using Plastic Scrap a Review


The plain cement concrete has very low tensile strength, restricted pliability, and little protection from breaking. Inward miniaturized scale breaks are innately present in the concrete and its poor rigidity is because of the proliferation of such small cracks, in the long run prompting fragile disappointment of the concrete. The most generally acknowledged solution for this flexural shortcoming of cement is the regular fortification with high quality steel. Regardless of the way that these procedures offer flexibility to people, they however dont grow the trademark unbending nature of solid itself. In like manner the help putting and profitable compaction of RCC is amazingly troublesome if the solid is of low workability especially by virtue of overpowering solid M 30 . In plain concrete and near feeble materials, assistant parts scaled down scale breaks become even before stacking, particularly on account of drying shrinkage or distinctive purposes behind volume change. The width of these breaks on occasion outperforms a few microns, yet their two estimations may be of higher enormity.

Soil Stabilization Using Waste Materials in Sri Lanka


The uses of automobiles are increasing day by day because of that the waste of tyres increases in Sri Lanka. Safer disposal of rubber tyre waste has become a challenging job in Sri Lanka. As a result of the improper way of disposal, there is a great damage to eco system like air pollution and aesthetic pollution. So that use of their basic properties in engineering applications are become prominent. This investigation has focused on the CBR of soil reinforced with randomly mixed shredded rubber tyre chips and the results will be compared with unreinforced samples. The optimal percentage value of shredded rubber tyre content in soil will be determined using the Standard proctor compaction test and CBR test. Increases in CBR value significantly reduce the total thickness of the pavement and hence the total cost involved in the road projects.

Design and Construction of A Shredding Machine for Recycling and Management of Organic Waste

This research work accounts for the study of the significant problems of organic wastes management which is an issue utmost concern in developing Countries like India. Principally our aim is to minimize the jolt caused by organic Waste produced in agricultural fields as residue which is commonly burned causing pollution. We seek to reuse this valuable resource and turning into good quality compost for agricultural use. In this study, we designed and constructed a Shredding machine. The machine will initially convert larger particle size of Collected organic waste into desired size such that it can be treated other chemical and biological processes in order to convert it into compost in least amount of time possible. Indifferent from the conventional processes used this methodology elucidates the paramount problem of dumping, environmental pollution. In Addition to that it helps in farming by inducing the compost. As this methodology involves mechanical, chemical and biological processes for converting agricultural waste into compost making it highly efficient and eco friendly which is need of the hour

An Experimental Study on Properties of Concrete using Waste Plastic Scrap Materials as Partial Replacement of Coarse Aggregate

Investigations were done on M 30grade concrete by replacing coarse aggregate partially by plastic fiber to get maximum strength. This work presents the Strength and workability results of waste plastic fiber reinforced concrete WPFRC . The different percentages of waste plastic fiber reinforced concrete used in the experimentation are 0 , 0.5 , 1 , and 2 by partial replacement of coarse aggregate using plastic fiber This Study presents the satisfactory results on various strength tests of concrete containing plastic fiber as a partial replacement of coarse aggregate and would help to resolve solid waste disposal problem. However, further research work is still necessary in order to have a more in depth understanding.

Study of Silica Fume Blended Concrete using Statistical Mixture Experiment and Optimizing of Compressive Strength of Cement Concrete


The prime objective of this study is to design, analyze and optimize the silica fume blended concrete using Statistical Mixture Experiment and to explore the practicability of Statistical mixture experiment in mix design of concrete containing the several components. The traditional mix design methods have drawbacks. Traditional method of mix design of concrete fails in designing the complex concrete mixture containing the cementitious materials, pozzolanic materials and several admixtures. Traditional methods are based on trial and error method in which effect of only one component can be determined. Trial and error does not provide the whole picture of concrete mixture. In this study, the statistical mixture design method is employed to analyze the effects of silica fume on 28 days compressive strength of concrete and to design and optimize the silica fume blended concrete. The components of concrete mixture are Cement, silica fume, water and aggregate. Total of 15 runs or design points are generated which are combinations of proportions and laboratory experiment is carried out on these design points and 28 days compressive strength is measured. Mathematical relationship is established between 28 days compressive strength and proportions of components using least square technique and then mathematical model is studied to analyze the effects of silica fume in concrete.

Monitoring of Forest Fire Detection System Using ZigBee

A large number of valuable forests are destroyed in every second caused by fire around the world. As a result of insufficient information of firefighting cannot be provided in time to the occurrence of fire places. Therefore, the lives of people, animals and valuable forest have been lost for wild fire. This proposed system is designed by using sensors nodes and empowering them to communicate with each other through wireless technologies. The system mainly consists of three parts detecting part, monitoring part and wireless sensor network part. The detecting part was devised using Simulated Sensor Program. Temperature sensor LM35, humidity sensor DHT 11 and gas sensor MQ2 detect the occurrence of forest fire. The monitoring part is integrated with LCD display. The ZigBee protocol is utilized for the wireless sensor network communication.

Modified Behaviour of Concrete by Replacing Fine Aggregates with Coal Fly Ash

The prime objective of the study was to evaluate the structural properties and potential of concrete containing coal fly ash that of concrete containing no coal fly ash of corresponding mix proportions and strength. The cubes were tested for the compressive strength and beams specimens were tested for flexural strength. Splitting tensile strength tests were conducted on cylinder specimens. The total numbers of 60 cubes, 40 beams specimens and 40 numbers of cylinders were tested for compressive strength, flexural strength and splitting tensile strength respectively at different ages to study the following aspect. The effect on unit weight of concrete after incorporating varying proportions of bottom ash. The effect of coal fly ash on workability C.F of fresh concrete. The effect on compressive, flexural and splitting tensile strength using bottom ash in varying percentages as a partial replacement of fine aggregates. Mix containing 30 and 40 bottom ash, at 90 days, attains the compressive strength equivalent to 109.13 and 105.17 of compressive strength of normal concrete at 28 days and attains flexural strength in the range of 112 116.3 at 90 days of flexural strength of normal concrete at 28 days.
