A RCC bridge is a monolithic structure that is poured in place. Forms are placed, the reinforcing steel is placed into the forms and a concrete mix is poured into the forms. The rebar extends beyond the form to allow connection to the next section to be poured. In a PSC structure the elements are precast either in a yard or onsite. They are cast with longitudinal holes to allow the prestressing strands to be extended between them. These strands use their tension to pull the units together and to act as reinforcement by prestreeing the entirety of the structure to make it stronger.

Concrete pumps_Advanced Construction Technology (Semester-6), Civil EngineeringA Makwana
Piston pumps:
After mixing the concrete, it is filled into a hopper and pump started.
During the suction stroke, the inlet valve is opened and the delivery valve remains closed.
The diameter of the piston is some what less than the diameter of the cylinder.
At the working end of the piston, rubber cups are attached, which check the wastage in the cylinder. At the other end, this piston works in bushes.
HEAP SORT ILLUSTRATED WITH HEAPIFY, BUILD HEAP FOR DYNAMIC ARRAYS.
Heap sort is a comparison-based sorting technique based on Binary Heap data structure. It is similar to the selection sort where we first find the minimum element and place the minimum element at the beginning. Repeat the same process for the remaining elements.

It consists of cw radar and fmcw radar ,range measurement,if amplifier and fmcw altimeterThe CW radar operates using continuous wave transmission, while the FMCW radar employs frequency-modulated continuous wave technology. Range measurement is a crucial aspect of radar systems, providing information about the distance to a target. The IF amplifier plays a key role in signal processing, amplifying intermediate frequency signals for further analysis. The FMCW altimeter utilizes frequency-modulated continuous wave technology to accurately measure altitude above a reference point.

Using recycled concrete aggregates (RCA) for pavements is crucial to achieving sustainability. Implementing RCA for new pavement can minimize carbon footprint, conserve natural resources, reduce harmful emissions, and lower life cycle costs. Compared to natural aggregate (NA), RCA pavement has fewer comprehensive studies and sustainability assessments.
2. Preparations for the concrete pumping system began in early 2005. Three
trailer-mounted concrete pumps were paired with a carefully engineered
delivery line system. Four non-ballasted stationary placing booms and
several truck-mounted boom pumps were added to support the system.
Extensive tests on the pump and delivery line were conducted on site.
Horizontal pipelines simulated the pressure and friction based on the
concrete mixture and data from other vertical-pumping applications.
A specially designed, high-pressure trailer pump was created specifically
for the Burj Khalifa project. The pump'92s frame and hopper were
reinforced to withstand the forces of the concrete mixtures. The new
pump also included valves and bearings adjusted for the predicted
pressure, as well as a filter system.
The three trailer pumps were combined to create one pump station. The
station pumped approximately 165,000 cubic meters (m3) of high-
strength concrete during 32 months of operation.
Three of the trailer pump delivery lines were connected to three placing
booms. The booms were secured on platforms of an auto-climbing
formwork and stood on 16-m tubular columns for the tower's three wing
sections.

3. The Concrete Mixture
THROUGHOUT THE PROJECT, OPERATORS COULD ONLY USE HIGH-STRENGTH
CONCRETE MIXTURES. THE MIXTURES WERE ONLY POURED AT NIGHT
BECAUSE OF HOT TEMPERATURES DURING THE DAY. THE CONCRETE HAD TO
BE CHILLED IN THE PLANT BEFORE PREPARATION. SOME OF THE WATER WAS
REPLACED WITH ICE, ALLOWING THE CONCRETE TO REMAIN AT 28 DEGREES
CELSIUS AS IT WAS TRANSFERRED TO THE SITE.
PLANT PERSONNEL MONITORED AND LOGGED EACH BATCH OF CONCRETE.
TEMPERATURE AND VISCOSITY WERE CHECKED REGULARLY BEFORE THE
CONCRETE ARRIVED AT THE PUMPS. THEN, SAMPLES WERE POURED TO CHECK
PRESSURE.
WHILE DEVELOPING THE DELIVERY LINE SYSTEM, ENGINEERS CONSIDERED
WEAR BEHAVIOR, COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH AND FLOW PATH. TRUCK-
MOUNTED BOOM PUMPS PLACED THE STRUCTURE'2S 7,000-SQUARE-METER

TWO HUNDRED CONCRETE PILES (1.5 M IN DIAMETER)

4. Concrete can only be pushed through the delivery line when it has previously
been sucked from a hopper, this being achieved by increasing the volume of
the conveying space, ie the volume of delivery cylinders, of the pump so the
concrete fills the conveying space to its optimum level. By decreasing the
volume of the conveying space, the concrete is pushed out into the delivery
line and displaces the entire concrete column in the delivery line.
On closer examination, it can be seen that the suction action is also pushing,
thereby increasing the volume in the conveying space which results in a
pressure level lower than the atmospheric pressure. This pushes the
concrete out of the hopper into the conveying space at maximum pressure of
1 bar, but only in the absence of a continuous ‘air bridge’ between the
conveying space and the atmosphere.
The low pressure level for suction and filling requires the lowest possible
level of resistance to flow and deformation of the concrete. The agitator in
the hopper and its geometrical shape contribute considerably towards this.
The agitator not only keeps the concrete free-flowing during breaks in the
conveying action but also moves and pushes the concrete during suction in
an even and controlled flow rate into the suction opening. The filling rate of
the conveying space is essential to the efficiency of the pump.
Pumping concrete
5. For optimum suction conductions, the suction openings and the conveying area
diameter need to be kept as constant and as large as possible. This also results in
the essential differences between piston and peristaltic pumps. Piston pumps suck
in the concrete through large cross-sections and reduce the cross-section when
pushing out the concrete, with the size of the output being dependent on the
cylinder volume, number of piston strokes per minute and the engine power.
Peristaltic pumps are limited to around 30 bar with regard to their delivery pressure
and delivery performance is restricted by suction performance.
When the concrete is pressed out of the delivery cylinders of a piston pump into the
delivery line, it experiences a reduction in cross-section to the diameter of the
delivery line during and after passing through the valve. This results in an increase in
speed together with a corresponding increase in the boundary layer per volume of
unit. To reduce the associated conveying resistance, the cross-section reduction is
carried out continuously as far as possible over a sufficiently long section. This
reduction of the cross-section inside or immediately downstream of the pump also
provides a pumpability test for the concrete.
Increasing the cross section of the line has a direct influence on the flow rate, the
wear behaviour, the pressure requirement and the period for which the concrete
remains in the pipeline – given the same output per hour. In comparison with the
125 mm delivery line, the cross section for the 150 mm diameter increases by
around 44%. This results in a pressure reduction of around 25%, and the wear also
reduces accordingly.
6. However, as the flow rate drops, the period for which the concrete remains in the
line increases. This longer flow time must be taken into account when developing
the concreting concept. With an assumed structure height of 580 m, the period for
which the concrete remains in the 150 mm delivery line is around 35 minutes and
added to that is the significantly higher load on the shut-off valve due to the much
heavier concrete columns in the line.
It is very important for piston pumps that the delivery space is emptied as
thoroughly as possible with every pump stroke. This is because as a dead volume it
can remain in the delivery space, primarily on the delivery piston, at least until the
next time the pump is cleaned. If this dead volume hardens or sets, there is the
strong possibility that this can lead to destruction of the seals, the delivery piston
and the delivery cylinder inside the wall.
