Automobile Management System Project Report.pdfKamal Acharya
The proposed project is developed to manage the automobile in the automobile dealer company. The main module in this project is login, automobile management, customer management, sales, complaints and reports. The first module is the login. The automobile showroom owner should login to the project for usage. The username and password are verified and if it is correct, next form opens. If the username and password are not correct, it shows the error message.
When a customer search for a automobile, if the automobile is available, they will be taken to a page that shows the details of the automobile including automobile name, automobile ID, quantity, price etc. “Automobile Management System” is useful for maintaining automobiles, customers effectively and hence helps for establishing good relation between customer and automobile organization. It contains various customized modules for effectively maintaining automobiles and stock information accurately and safely.
When the automobile is sold to the customer, stock will be reduced automatically. When a new purchase is made, stock will be increased automatically. While selecting automobiles for sale, the proposed software will automatically check for total number of available stock of that particular item, if the total stock of that particular item is less than 5, software will notify the user to purchase the particular item.
Also when the user tries to sale items which are not in stock, the system will prompt the user that the stock is not enough. Customers of this system can search for a automobile; can purchase a automobile easily by selecting fast. On the other hand the stock of automobiles can be maintained perfectly by the automobile shop manager overcoming the drawbacks of existing system.
Courier management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
It is now-a-days very important for the people to send or receive articles like imported furniture, electronic items, gifts, business goods and the like. People depend vastly on different transport systems which mostly use the manual way of receiving and delivering the articles. There is no way to track the articles till they are received and there is no way to let the customer know what happened in transit, once he booked some articles. In such a situation, we need a system which completely computerizes the cargo activities including time to time tracking of the articles sent. This need is fulfilled by Courier Management System software which is online software for the cargo management people that enables them to receive the goods from a source and send them to a required destination and track their status from time to time.

2. TOPICS TO BE DISCUSSED:
• Carbonation
• Chloride attack
• Corrosion of steel
• Corrosion control
• Effects of some materials on durability
• Surface treatments of concrete
• Short term and long term tests on durability of concrete
• Concluding remarks on durability
3. CARBONATION:
• Carbonation of concrete is a process by which carbondioxide from air penetrates into concrete and reacts with calcium
hydroxide to form calcium carbonates.
• CO2 by itself is not reactive. In the presence of moisture, CO2 changes into dilute carbonic acid which attacks the
reinforcement and reduces alkalinity of concrete.
• Rate of Carbonation:
The rate of Carbonation depends on :
• The level of pore water ( relative humidity)
• Grade of concrete
• Permeability of concrete
• Whether the concrete is protected or not
• Depth of cover
• Time

TIME IN YEARS FOR CARBONATION
9. • The highest rate of Carbonation occurs at a relative humidity of between 50 and 70%.
• The rate of Carbonation depth will be slower in case of stronger concrete( lower w/c ratio
and low permeability).
MEASUREMENT OF DEPTH OF CARBONATION:
A common and simple method for establishing the extent of Carbonation is to treat the
freshly broken surface of concrete with a solution of phenolphthalein in diluted alcohol. If
Ca(OH)2 is unaffected by CO2 the colour turns out pink. If the concrete is carbonated it will
remain uncoloured.
10.
11. CHLORIDE ATTACK:
• Chloride attack mainly causes corrosion of reinforcement.
• Protective oxide layer which is formed due to high Alkalinity of concrete is lost due
to presence of chloride in presence of water and oxygen.
• Chloride enters the concrete from cement, water, aggregate and sometimes from
admixtures and also by diffusion from environment.
• According to Bureau of Indian Standard, the maximum allowable chloride content
in cement as 0.4%.
12. The following are the threshold values of chloride ion have been established for
intitation of reinforcement corrosion in uncarbonated concrete:
• upto 0.2% by weight of cement. = No risk of corrosion
• 0.2% to 0.4% by weight of cement. = Low risk of corrosion
• 0.4% to 1.0% by weight of cement. = Moderate risk of corrosion
• more than 1.0% by weight of cement= High risk of corrosion

15. CORROSION OF STEEL(CHLORIDE INDUCED):
Corrosion is defined as the “ destruction or deterioration of materials in environments
to which they are exposed”.
• Corrosion of steel in concrete is an electrochemical process.
• When there is a difference in an electrical potential along the steel reinforcement in
concrete, an electrochemical cell is set up.
• Anodic reactions:
. Fe-> Fe++. + 2e-
Fe++ + 2(OH)- -> Fe(OH)2. ( Ferrous Hydroxide)
4Fe(OH)2 + 2 H2O + O2 -> 4Fe(OH)3 ( Ferric oxide)
17. • Cathodic reaction:
. 4e- + O2+ H2O -> 4(OH)-
• Corrosion doesn’t takes place if concrete is dry or below relative humidity of 60%
because enough water is not there to promote corrosion. And also if concrete is
fully immersed in water because diffusion of oxygen does not takes place into the
concrete.
• The optimum relative humidity for corrosion is 70-80%.
23. CORROSION CONTROL:
CONTROL MEASURES FOR CORROSION:
• Proper mix design
• Use of right quality and quantity of cement for different exposure conditions.
• Low w/c ratio
• Low permeability
• Use of supplementary cementitious materials such as flyash, ground granulated blast furnace slag, silica fume etc
• Improved microstructure
• Metallurgical methods
• Corrosion inhibitors
• Coatings to reinforcements
• Cathodic protection
• Coatings to concrete
24. METALLURGICAL METHODS:
• Rapid quenching of hot bars by series of water jets
• By keeping the hot steel bars for a short time in a water bath.
CORROSION INHIBITORS:
• By corrosion inhibiting chemicals such as nitrites, phosphates, benzonates etc.
• The typical dosage is of order of 10-30 litres per m3 of concrete depending on
chloride levels in concrete.
27. COATINGS TO THE REINFORCEMENTS:
The object of coating to steel bar is to provide a durable barrier to aggressive materials, such as
chlorides.
• Coatings should be rebust to withstand fabrication of reinforcement cage, and pouring of concrete and
compaction by vibrating needle.
• Method for prevention of corrosion In steel:
Derusting
Phosphating
Cement coating
Sealing
Fusion bonded epoxy coating
Galvanised reinforcement
Cathodic protection

30. EFFECTS OF SOME MATERIALS ON
DURABILITY:
The various effects on durability are caused by:
• Action of mineral oils
• Action of organic acids
• Vegetables and animal oils and fats
• Action of sugar on concrete
• Action of sewage
31.
32. SURFACE TREATMENTS OF CONCRETE:
Some of the materials used for surface treatments are listed below:
• Aqueous solution of sodium silicate
• Magnesium or zinc silicone fluoride
• Drying oils such as linseed or Tung oil
• Chlorinated rubber paints
• Neoprene paints
• Epoxy paints or coal tar epoxy paints
• Silicon fluoride(SiF4) treatment
36. SHORT TERM AND LONG TERM TESTS ON
DURABILITY OF CONCRETE:
37.
38. WATER PENETRATION TEST:
Water penetration depth can be used for finding the coefficient of permeability (K in m/sec).
K = e2v / 2ht
Where e = depth of penetration of water in concrete in meters
h = hydraulic head in meters( 0.1-0.7 Mpa)
t = time under pressure in seconds, and
V= the fraction of volume of concrete occupied by pores ( 0.02-0.06)
• The depth of penetration less than 50mm can be classified as impermeable and a depth
less than 30 mm can be classified as the concrete impermeable under aggressive
conditions
