Silica fumes
Silica fume is a finely-divided mineral admixture that fills voids between cement particles, resulting in very dense concrete with high compressive strength and low permeability. It works by filling voids created by water in the concrete matrix through particle packing. Advantages include lower permeability, higher strength, improved durability, reduced alkali-silica reactivity, and improved resistance to attack. It is used to produce high strength, corrosion resistant, and abrasion resistant concrete, as well as products like sewer pipes.

Glass fibers reinforced concrete
This document discusses glass fiber reinforced concrete (GFRC), which is a composite material made of cement mortar reinforced with glass fibers. It explains that the addition of glass fibers improves several properties of concrete, including increasing tensile strength, reducing cracking from shrinkage, and improving durability. The key factors that affect GFRC properties are the relative amounts of fiber and matrix, fiber aspect ratio, fiber orientation, and workability of the concrete mixture. Different types of glass fibers include A-glass, C-glass, E-glass, and S-glass. GFRC has applications in exterior ornamentation, interior details, landscape furnishings, and infrastructure projects due to its strength, impact resistance, and durability.
Repair and rehabilitation of structures
The repair and rehabilitation of concrete structures is necessary to extend their lifespan and ensure durability by restoring structural systems to their original positions. Deterioration can be caused by various factors and have effects that endanger safety and utility, requiring distressed structures to be brought back to line, level, and required strength through rehabilitation methods and materials. Tests are available to determine deterioration in structures in need of rehabilitation through case studies of damaged buildings.

Coal Tar Based Pavement Sealcoat: Health and Environmental Overview
Scientists have identified this commonly used sealcoat as a major source of dangerous chemicals in streams and lakes, and as a significant health risk to the public, especially young children. These chemicals, which will are discussed in depth in the webinar, are found in the sediments of nearby lakes and streams from pavements coated with this type of product.
Our expert speaker is Dr. Barbara Mahler, a Research Hydrologist with the USGS at the Texas Water Science Center. She is part of the Contaminant Trends in Lake Sediments (CTLS) team, which uses cores of sediments from lakes to reconstruct the contaminant histories of watersheds.
Doubly R C Beam
This document provides information on doubly reinforced concrete beams. It introduces the concept of doubly reinforced beams, which have reinforcement in both the tension and compression zones. This allows for an increased moment of resistance compared to singly reinforced beams. The key advantages of doubly reinforced beams are that they can be used when the applied moment exceeds the capacity of a singly reinforced beam, when beam depth cannot be increased, or when reversal of stresses may occur. The document includes stress diagrams, design concepts, and differences between singly and doubly reinforced beams.
Design of RCC Lintel
The document discusses the design of reinforced concrete lintels. It describes what a lintel is and the different types of lintels used, including timber, stone, brick, steel, and reinforced concrete lintels. Reinforced concrete lintels are most widely used today due to their strength, rigidity, fire resistance, and economy. The document provides the design steps for RCC lintels, including determining the effective depth and span, calculating loads and bending moment, sizing tension and shear reinforcement, and providing detailing. It also includes an example problem showing the design of an RCC lintel with given dimensions and reinforcement.
PROTECTION METHODS.pptx
Structural health monitoring and concrete protection methods are needed to protect structures from environmental damage and corrosion. Concrete protection includes hydrophobic impregnation, painting, oils and sealers to prevent water and chemical ingress. Reinforcement can be protected through galvanization, corrosion-inhibiting admixtures, and cathodic protection. Self-regulating anodes provide galvanic protection to reinforced concrete through sacrificial corrosion of the anode material. Structural health monitoring assesses structural condition over time using automated methods to predict remaining lifespan.
Förkortad väglivslängd - Orsaker och kostnader
Vägar ska vara rätt dimensionerade, byggda & underhållna så att de inte slits onormalt snabbt. Men många vägar är underdimensionerade och vägmaterialet är felvalt. De flesta orsaker till vägars förkortade livslängd beror inte på trafiklast. Snarare handlar det om fel som byggs in från start, och därefter om bristande vägunderhåll, minskad bärighet på grund av otillräcklig dränering, tjälskador, m.m.
Asfalt av normal kvalitet tål till vägsalt, men det gör inte asfalt av dålig kvalitet. Vägsaltet kan i det senare fallet skapa ett osmotiskt tryck som spränger beläggningen inifrån. Asfalt av bättre kvalitet skulle inte heller nötas ned av dubbdäck i samma omfattning som i dag är en realitet på många vägar.
Av 11 analyserade typer av lastbilsekipage, ger 74-tons ekipage på välbyggd väg lägst vägslitagekostnad per ton last och kilometer. Det beror på att lasten fördelas över så många axelpar att marktrycket blir lågt. Dyrast vägslitage vållas av 40-tons EU-semitrailers.
Bara en fjärdedel av Trafikverkets underhållskostnader på det statliga vägnätet härrör från trafiklast, till exempel dubbdäck från personbilar och nedbrytning under tunga fordon. Utredningen visar att tre fjärdedelar av vägslitaget beror på andra orsaker som t.ex. brister i underhåll, försenat underhåll, byggfel med underdimensionering, brist på planfräsning före asfaltering, åldring och oxidation av asfalt, otillräcklig dränering, tjälsprickor och tjäldeformationer, samt sättningar i undergrunden.

Trans-Siberia_Kupfer
The Trans-Siberian Railroad is the longest railway line in the world, stretching nearly 6,000 miles across Russia from Moscow to Vladivostok. It was an immense engineering feat to construct, traversing diverse landscapes and taking 14 years to complete at great human and financial cost. Though originally built to access Siberia's natural resources, the railroad also enabled migration and economic development while playing a strategic military role. Today it remains an iconic tourist attraction, transporting passengers in a range of accommodations from basic dormitories to private cabins.

Doing The Trans-Siberian Railway In Style
- 1. http://www.thetranssiberiantravelcompany.com/ How to Get the Most Out of your Trip on the Trans-Siberian Railway
- 2. The Trans-Siberian Railway offers travellers a trip of a lifetime, running through three countries and two continents, right from the cabin of a luxury train. But just because the tour is on tracks doesn’t mean that there is only one way to do it. To find out more about how you can customise your trip, check out the available Trans-Siberian Railway Packages for 2016 by TSTC.
- 3. Starting from Moscow will give you a chance to take in the Russian capital’s galleries, museums, and theatres as well as the Kremlin and St. Basil’s Cathedral. Moscow is the starting point for all three lines, the Trans-Siberian, Trans-Manchurian, and the Trans-Mongolian.
- 4. Starting from St. Petersburg is an option for those who want to take a slightly shorter trip. The city itself holds many cultural and architectural wonders and is linked to Moscow via an express train. Starting from here will still see your trip end in Vladivostok or Beijing, so even though it is shorter, you still get a complete experience of the tour. Source: http://media.web.britannica.com/eb- media/19/64419-004-2DE2ACDC.gif
- 5. Starting from Beijing is a popular option since the city is an impressive one with unbelievable scenery and rich cultural locations such as Tiananmen Square, the Forbidden City, and the Summer Palace. From here you can take one of two lines, the Tans-Siberian line and the more popular, Trans-Mongolian one. This is the destination you’ll be interested in if you’re looking for affordable China tours and travel packages.

- 6. Starting from Vladivostok will give you the most complete and original experience of the Trans- Siberian line that there is. Vladivostok can act as the beginning or the end of the 9,259 km trip to Moscow, which can be done on a single train, the number 2 ‘Rossiya’.
- 7. The Tsars Gold Private Train will take you on the Trans-Mongolian line from Moscow to Beijing or vice versa. Stops along the way include Kazan, Ekaterinburg, Novosibirsk, Irkutsk, Ulan Ude, and Ulaanbaatar. Travel along the shore of Lake Baikal in your own private train and take in the scenery of Siberian villages and the wilderness.
- 8. The Golden Eagle Luxury Train departs throughout the year to give luxury to group tours of the original Trans-Siberian Line. The line also branches off into Mongolia, which is just one of several routes to choose from. For an affordable luxury trip that is well planned, tried and tested, the Golden Eagle is a good choice.
