BRITISH-INDIA INFLUENCE TO FMS RAILWAY STATIONS (KTM) IN THE CASE OF KUALA LUMPUR AND IPOH
Geological environment and historical background of Malaya displayed an important role in the development of train system in Malaysia. The early local settlements of Malaya have mostly settled in the lowland and coastal area, with water transportation as a means of transportation for communication and trades. Malay kingdoms were cited and the capital was at a point near river mouths. However, later in the 19th century, rivalry takes part between the European powers for control of the tin deposits in Malaya. Tin became a significant raw material contributing to the industrial revolution. Large tin deposits were discovered in Sungei Ujong,Negeri Sembilan, in the valleys of Klang River and at Larut, Perak. In 1874, British came in to control the unrest in the tin-producing areas and later, residential system was established in Perak, Selangor and Sungei Ujong.
There was demand to connect the mines to the ports where first section of the Malayan Railway was opened between Taiping,Perak and Port Weld,Klang. During this era, the railway stations was made of wood and nipah palm. However, later, more townships in the state of Perak, Negeri Sembilan and Selangor developed along the roads. The town includes Taiping, Ipoh, Seremban and Kuala Lumpur. This resulted development in architectural design as well to the railway stations. In 1910, becoming the main railway station for the state of Selangor, Kuala Lumpur railway station has been relocated and was built as the first concrete station in town. Ipoh in the other hand serves as the main railway terminal for the state of Perak and was the second concrete station in 1920. Both buildings was designed by Arthur Benison Hubback whom was a British architectural assistant to the Director of Public Works of that time.
Therefour, this study will further evaluate the relationship of the Ipoh railway station in comparison to the Kuala Lumpur railway station architectural style from the influence of global industrial revolution era, as well as local political and historical influence.

Railway engineering is a multi-faceted engineering discipline dealing with the design, construction and operation of all types of railway systems. It encompasses a wide range of engineering discipline as Civil engineering, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering and computer engineering. A great many other engineering sub-disciplines are also called upon to combine and create railroad engineering. The civil engineers plan the railway track, design the alignment and right of way and finally they operate.
The Importance of Railway in TransportationAhmed Nassar
This research article mainly talks about railways. An account of the long history of centuries-old railways will be mentioned. Hence the vital importance of the railways and its role in all fields. Then the types of railway elements (rail, sleepers, and ballast). Then we will look at the advantages and disadvantages of each. Finally, the design of rail with all needed geometric equations.
In the Middle Ages, people traveled on foot or horseback, and other forms of transport were intended for goods. It is impossible to imagine the revolution that took place in industry and population expansion without the modern means of transportation for passengers and goods. So, the development of railways to coincide with industrial progress was a major challenge. In ancient civilizations in Egypt, Greece…etc, transportation of transporting goods and people by carts (drawn by bulls or horses), and they built predetermined methods to reduce animal energy consumption during transport, paved flat roads and prevented animals from walking on unpaved terrain Because this consumes much energy, this was the first transportation lines in the world.

Qinghai-Tibet Railway is a track rewriting human’s project history and Tibet’s history. As the first railway to Tibet, the Qinghai-Tibet railway ended Tibet’s history without railroad and train. It was believed that human are not able to build a railway on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. However, the launching of this altiplano railway on 1st July 2006 proves that Chinese engineers can do it. Making a Tibet tour via this railway is considered as a lifetime journey for many travelers.
Kolkata underwater metro project VISHAL PPT.pptximsuraj2309
The Kolkata underwater metro project is an innovative and ambitious infrastructure endeavor aimed at improving urban transportation in Kolkata, India. The project involves the construction of an underwater tunnel to connect important parts of the city and alleviate traffic congestion. To cover this topic comprehensively, I can provide a detailed overview including the project's history, objectives, engineering challenges, construction phases, technological aspects, environmental considerations, and anticipated impact on the city's transportation landscape. Let's dive in.
Overview of the Kolkata Underwater Metro Project
1. Introduction
The Kolkata underwater metro project is part of the Kolkata Metro Railway, operated by the Kolkata Metro Rail Corporation (KMRC). It aims to extend the metro rail network in the city by introducing an underwater section, a first of its kind in India.
2. Background
The idea of an underwater metro tunnel in Kolkata was conceived to address the growing congestion and limited transportation options in the city. The project was envisioned to provide a faster, more efficient, and eco-friendly mode of transportation.
3. Objectives
Enhance connectivity within Kolkata, particularly between the eastern and western parts of the city.
Reduce traffic congestion on the roads.
Provide a safe, reliable, and comfortable commuting option for residents.
Boost economic activities and development along the metro route.
Engineering and Design Aspects
1. Route and Stations
The underwater metro route stretches from Howrah Maidan to Salt Lake Sector V, covering approximately 16.6 kilometers. It includes a mix of elevated, underground, and underwater sections. Notable stations along the route include Howrah, Mahakaran, Esplanade, Sealdah, and Salt Lake Sector V.
2. Tunnel Construction
The underwater section involves the construction of a tunnel beneath the Hooghly River. This tunnel is approximately 520 meters long and runs at a depth of about 30 meters below the riverbed. Specialized engineering techniques such as tunnel boring machines (TBMs) are used for tunnel excavation and lining.
3. Technology and Safety
Advanced tunneling technology is employed to ensure the structural integrity and safety of the underwater tunnel.
Fire safety systems, emergency exits, and evacuation procedures are incorporated into the design to meet international safety standards.
Construction Phases and Challenges
1. Construction Timeline
The project has been implemented in phases, with each phase focusing on specific sections of the metro route. The underwater tunnel construction posed significant challenges due to the river's depth and the need for precision engineering.
2. Environmental Considerations
Special attention is given to environmental impact assessments and mitigation measures during construction. Measures such as sediment control, noise reduction, and waste management are implemented to minimize ecological disruption.
3. Engineering Challenges

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

1. Key Events in Bangkok’s Urban History and
Development - Emphasis on Alternative Modes of
Public Transportation
Ishmam Ahmed
2. After the fall of Ayutthaya,
King Taksin moved the
capital of Siam to Thonburi,
which was located on the
west bank of the Chao
Phraya River.
Thonburi had created canals
to improve transportation
and trade.
Prelude to
Bangkok
3. This canal was created by
the royal intention of King
Rama I in 1783 after
establishment of
Rattanakosin kingdom.
Used as a waterway by
people but also for boating
and festivals.
The Bangkok
Moat
King Rama I established
Bangkok as the new capital
of Siam on the east bank of
the Chao Phraya River. 1782.
The new city was built
around the Grand Palace and
Wat Phra Kaew, and canals
were dug to connect the
palace to other parts of the
city.
4. The Saen Saep Canal was
built on the order of King
Rama III during a conflict
between Siam and Annam
over Cambodia in order to
establish water transport for
soldiers and weapons
Rama V’s
Canals
During the reign of King
Chulalongkorn (Rama V),
Bangkok underwent
modernization and
urbanization. The canal
system was expanded and
improved to facilitate
transportation and trade.
The canal system also
facilitated the parcelling and
subdivision of land into
plots.
5. The Bowring
Treaty
The treaty liberalized foreign
trade in siam - kickstarting
economic rejuvenation and
infrastructural development.
Charoen Krung Road (the
first modern road in the
country) was built in 1862, in
response to requests by
Western consuls/merchants.
6. Exploring
Trams
The tram network first
operated as a horse tram
system, and was eventually
converted to electric trams
in the late nineteenth
century. The first trams were
built on Charoen Krung Road
in 1888. . In 1963, the trams
were discontinued for the
road's expansion.
7. After Taksin Bridge
construction in 1982, the big
trees were removed and
Sathon Road were enlarged,
narrowing the canal.
Road Network
Expansion
As Bangkok continued to
grow and develop, the canals
were viewed as unsanitary
and congested. The advent
of motorized transportation
further decreased the use of
canals. Many of Bangkok's
historic canals were filled in
to make way for new roads
and buildings.
By the late 70’s, 80 percent
of the city's historic canal
system was lost.
8. Introduction of the BTS
Skytrain Silom (Light Green)
& Sukhumvit (Dark Green)
Lines (1999)

9. A failed project to build an
elevated highway and rail
line from central Bangkok to

The project was cancelled in
1998. Due to its standing
stones, it was nicknamed
"Thailand's Stonehenge".

M-Map
Revised
The first M-Map had
ambitious plans to expand
Bangkok’s Rail Network.
However the government
didn’t think reflect its
priorities at the time - so
they updated it with a plan a
little less ambitious.
13. Reviving
Canals?
Bangkok's Canal Renovation
Project is trying to revive
Bangkok’s one of many
historical canals. The revival
is aligned with a strategic
move to create more
blue-green infrastructure.
The canal system is also
integrated more thoroughly
into the MRT/BTS system.
