The document discusses the importance of structural audits for existing buildings. It defines a structural audit as a technical inspection to evaluate the general health and condition of a building. Structural audits are important to assess the safety of a building, understand any distress areas, and plan necessary repairs or retrofitting. The audit process involves studying design plans, visually inspecting the building, using techniques like tapping and non-destructive testing, and producing a report of observations and recommended actions. The summary highlights that structural audits should be conducted every 5-30 years, depending on a building's age, to ensure structural viability and prolonged safe use of the building.
A systematic study on site overhead costs in construction industryeSAT Journals
Abstract Construction sector is the one of the largest employer in the country. It has become a highly competitive field with a minimum profit. Construction costs are two types; one is direct cost (labors, materials, P & M, Equipments etc...) Other one is indirect costs/Overhead costs (Staff salaries, Staff benefits, Conveyance, Labor miscellaneous, Internet, Watch and ward etc.) and is added as a percentage to sum of labor, material and equipment. Normally 10 to 15% of contract value will be taken as overhead costs. Overhead costs cannot be neglected, but the indirect costs should be in control always. If the cost goes out of control, the contractors will not be in business. The article discusses about overheads, overhead percentage on contractual value, factor affecting the overhead costs, major issues faced by contractors, how overhead costs affects the income, Engineers/Contractors view on overheads, investigation and control of overhead costs, creating cost awareness among employees, lists out the major items which affects the overheads, interviews with professionals and data collection from the projects and hence creates awareness while bidding and plan the financial resources effectively. Key Words: Overhead costs, bidding, Engineers, Contractors
A study of professional advantages to manufacturing organizations by the way ...IJERA Editor
This paper presents the study and analysis of long term advantages gained by electromechanical product
manufacturing Industries when the A class components like brass electrical contacts are manufactured by
newly devised advance manufacturing technique of hot brass extrusion .After completion of the research and

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.
Vaccine management system project report documentation..pdfKamal Acharya
The Division of Vaccine and Immunization is facing increasing difficulty monitoring vaccines and other commodities distribution once they have been distributed from the national stores.

Sachpazis:Terzaghi Bearing Capacity Estimation in simple terms with Calculati...Dr.Costas Sachpazis
Terzaghi's soil bearing capacity theory, developed by Karl Terzaghi, is a fundamental principle in geotechnical engineering used to determine the bearing capacity of shallow foundations. This theory provides a method to calculate the ultimate bearing capacity of soil, which is the maximum load per unit area that the soil can support without undergoing shear failure. The Calculation HTML Code included.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.
