Reinforcement of Pond Ash Bed with Recron 3S and Analysis of Its Geotechnical Properties

A huge amount of ash pond is being generated by the thermal power plants and other such processes involving the combustion of coal in developed and developing countries. It has a hazardous effect on the environment and human beings. Some of the largest coal reserves are there in India hence, it is one of the largest producers of coal and coal based thermal power plant installations. The current rate of deposition of Pond ash in India has reached 160 million tons per annum. Around 90 sq km acres of precious land is used for the storage of abandoned Pond ash. But the current utilization rate of ash is only around one third of its total production. The fly ash is disposed of in the ash ponds. This practice leads to an ever increasing ponding area for storing ash and causes environmental issues for the people living around the industrial area including thermal power plants. The developmental projects like the construction of highways and roads have taken a boost in recent years. This requires a huge amount of natural soil and aggregates to be either excavated or deposited. The opportunity cost for such development is an environmental and economic issue. These issues need to be addressed by adopting some alternative methods. Pond ash is one such by product that can be used as material for filling in some of the geotechnical constructions. It is a non plastic and lightweight material. The present work describes the effect of moisture content, degree of compaction, synthetic fiber as reinforcement on various geotechnical properties of pond ash are studied. A series of tests including direct shear test, CBR test, light compaction as well as heavy compaction test, unconfined compression test was performed to estimate the strength characteristics of compacted pond ash using polyester as reinforced material. Physical properties of the pond ash were studied by performing tests like specific gravity test, grain size distribution test by mechanical sieve analysis. This study is helpful for the successful application of pond ash in different fields such as embankment construction, road base, and sub base construction, designing of retaining walls, etc. It also provides an eco friendly approach for the disposal of pond ash.

A Review Study on Seismic Behavior of Tall Structure by using Floating Columns with Shear Wall

Floating column rest on the beam, means the beam which support the column is act as a foundation. That beam is called as transfer beam. This is widely used in high storied buildings which are used for both commercial and residential purpose. This helps to alter the plan of the top floors to our convenience. The transfer beam that support floating column will be designed with more reinforcement.

An IOT Based Low Power Health Monitoring with Active Personal Assistance

Among sensible goals of active and assisted living paradigm is the unobtrusive monitoring of daily living activities. A lot of research has been going on continuous home and personal monitoring applications. There are many solutions were adapted by these technologies to make better remote monitoring applications. The traditional continuous home and personal monitoring systems which are implemented with traditional client server architecture which may fail in factors like low power consumption, un deterministic data delivery time, More sensitive to external connectivity issues temporary failures of servers , adhoc networks using ZigBee and Z wave etc. and also increase the cost of implementation. However, when dealing with the home environment, and especially with older adults, obtrusiveness, usability, and cost concerns are of the utmost relevance for active and assisted Living AAL joint program. With advent of cloud services, the continuous remote monitoring based applications became truly plug and play' approach implementation and also reduce the problems of temporary failures. One of the biggest challenges in this area is to make such application devices work with low power battery based applications . The main drawback comes from the higher power consumption, inherently needed to sustain much higher data rates. In this project, a solution is proposed to improve the low power consumption in Wi Fi sensors by making use of advanced RF based Microprocessor from Texas instruments CC3200 . Bed Occupancy sensor automation has been designed and implemented to test the feasibility of the approach. The TI CC3200 comes with ARM Cortex M4 as a core and inbuilt Wi Fi subsystem. The CC3200 provides different power modes to make the device enter into sleep or hibernate mode. This device will only enter only in work phase when the sensor is active state. During this phase, the processor sample and processes the sensor data and uploads to the cloud using REST API. Thing speak is an IoT cloud service used to present the sensory data as graphs, bar charts, and dashboards on the cloud remaining time it will enter into sleep phase to save the power of the device, so that it will extend the battery life time of the device.

Comparative Study on RCC Beam with and without Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymer using Ansys Software

RCC components are mainly beams and columns are sturdy and strong in flexure when they are utilized with Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymers CFRP composites which are epoxy bonded for tensile zones with the direction of fibres parallel to it of high tensile stresses. The mechanical behavior of composite concrete structures is difficult to analyze by an analytical model, due to the nonlinear behavior of the composite material. FE analysis is an efficient solution to overcome the problems. A load defection response, stress response and strain response were measured when CFRP reinforcement was provided, the stiffer response was observed at a relatively reduction in deflection, stress and strain in CFRP sheet.Finite Element Method analysis for the investigation of deformation and stresses. Ansys 14.5 software is used for finite element modelling. In this study unreinforced beam and beam reinforced with CFRP are compared on the basis of deformation and stresses.

Review Paper on RCC Beam with and without Fibre Reinforced Polymer

Concrete creation is normally expected to present trouble free carrier all through its intended layout lifestyles. But these expectancies arent realized in many constructions due to structural deficiency, fabric deterioration, unanticipated over loadings or bodily damage. Untimely material deterioration can stand up from some of reasons, the most common being while the construction specifications are violated or while the ability is uncovered to harsher carrier surroundings than the ones anticipated throughout the making plans and design levels. Bodily damage can also arise from fire, explosion ' as well as from restraints, both internal and outside, in opposition to structural motion. Except in extreme cases, maximum of the structures require healing to
fulfil its purposeful necessities by way of suitable repair strategies.
