Wash boring
For full course visit our website
https://www.machenlink.com/course/foundation-engineering/
Description
Wash boring is a fast and simple method for advancing holes in all types of soils.
Boulders and rock cannot be penetrated by this method.
The method consists in first driving a casing through which a hollow drill rod with a sharp chisel or chopping bit at the lower end is inserted.
Water is forced under pressure through the drill rod which is alternately raised and dropped and also rotated.
The resulting chopping and jetting action of the bit and water disintegrate the soil.
The cutting is forced up to the ground surface in the form of soil − water slurry through the annular space between the drill rod and the casing.
The change of soil stratification could be guessed from the rate of progress and the colour of wash water.
The samples recovered from the wash water are almost valueless for interpreting the correct geotechnical properties of soil.

Proctor compaction test
The document describes the standard Proctor compaction test procedure. The test is used to determine the maximum dry density and optimum moisture content of soils. It involves compacting soil samples at incrementally increased moisture contents using a specified compaction method. A compaction curve is plotted showing the relationship between dry density and moisture content. The peak of the curve indicates the optimum moisture content and maximum dry density achieved for that soil. The test uses a cylindrical metal mold, rammer, balance, oven and other equipment to compact and analyze the soil samples according to steps that sieve, mix, compact and weigh the soil at different moistures.

The results indicate an aggregate's strength and suitability for uses like road bases that subject it to repeated mechanical stresses. Proper testing helps ensure aggregates meet specifications for withstanding wear in paving and quarrying equipment.

Specific Gravity & Absorption of Aggregate (Coarse & Fine) | Jameel Academy
This document reports on a test to determine the specific gravity and absorption of fine and coarse aggregates. The specific gravities of coarse aggregate were found to be 2.55, 2.7, and 2.8 for bulk dry, SSD, and apparent respectively. For fine aggregate, the specific gravities were 2.64, 2.7, and 2.8. The absorptions were 2.3% for coarse and 1.78% for fine. While the specific gravities were normal, the absorptions were outside standard ranges, likely due to errors in measuring the fine aggregate's slump or not waiting 24 hours for coarse aggregate heating. In conclusion, the aggregates tested would not be suitable for use due to

the current usage of fly ash in India is still around 25% and below 45% even in the developed
countries like United States, there is a huge scope for fly ash in upcoming years. So let us harness

Hematology Analyzer Machine - Complete Blood Count
The CBC machine is a common diagnostic tool used by doctors to measure a patient's red blood cell count, white blood cell count and platelet count. The machine uses a small sample of the patient's blood, which is then placed into special tubes and analyzed. The results of the analysis are then displayed on a screen for the doctor to review. The CBC machine is an important tool for diagnosing various conditions, such as anemia, infection and leukemia. It can also help to monitor a patient's response to treatment.

Comparative analysis between traditional aquaponics and reconstructed aquapon...
The aquaponic system of planting is a method that does not require soil usage. It is a method that only needs water, fish, lava rocks (a substitute for soil), and plants. Aquaponic systems are sustainable and environmentally friendly. Its use not only helps to plant in small spaces but also helps reduce artificial chemical use and minimizes excess water use, as aquaponics consumes 90% less water than soil-based gardening. The study applied a descriptive and experimental design to assess and compare conventional and reconstructed aquaponic methods for reproducing tomatoes. The researchers created an observation checklist to determine the significant factors of the study. The study aims to determine the significant difference between traditional aquaponics and reconstructed aquaponics systems propagating tomatoes in terms of height, weight, girth, and number of fruits. The reconstructed aquaponics system’s higher growth yield results in a much more nourished crop than the traditional aquaponics system. It is superior in its number of fruits, height, weight, and girth measurement. Moreover, the reconstructed aquaponics system is proven to eliminate all the hindrances present in the traditional aquaponics system, which are overcrowding of fish, algae growth, pest problems, contaminated water, and dead fish.

Optimizing Gradle Builds - Gradle DPE Tour Berlin 2024
Sinan from the Delivery Hero mobile infrastructure engineering team shares a deep dive into performance acceleration with Gradle build cache optimizations. Sinan shares their journey into solving complex build-cache problems that affect Gradle builds. By understanding the challenges and solutions found in our journey, we aim to demonstrate the possibilities for faster builds. The case study reveals how overlapping outputs and cache misconfigurations led to significant increases in build times, especially as the project scaled up with numerous modules using Paparazzi tests. The journey from diagnosing to defeating cache issues offers invaluable lessons on maintaining cache integrity without sacrificing functionality.

Presentation on Determination of Penetration & Specific Gravity Test of Bitumen
- 1. GROUP NO. 8 EXPERIMENT NAMES: 1. Determination of penetration of bitumen. 2. Determination of specific gravity of bitumen.
- 2. GROUP MEMBERS: 1. Md. Abu Taher ( 2013333060) 2. Ruhul Amin (2013333063) 3. Meftahul Alam (2013333064) 4. Md. Ruhul Amin (2013333065) 5. Md. Shahnawaz Nahid (2013333066) 6. Seema Rani Debnath (2013333067)
- 3. DETERMINATION OF PENETRATION OF BITUMEN
- 4. INTRODUCTION: The penetration test is an empirical test used to measure the consistency of bitumen.
- 5. AIM OF THE PENETRATION TEST: 1. To find out the hardness or softness of bitumen. 2. To determine the consistency of bituminous material. 3. To determine the grade of bitumen.
- 6. APPARATUS: 1. Penetrometer. 2. Needle. 3. Water bath. 4. Stop watch. 5. Thermometer. 6. Container. 7. Heater. 8. 100gm Load.
- 7. CALCULATION: S. N Time (sec) Initial Reading Final reading Penetration Avg. Penetration Penetration (in mm) 01 5 105 136 31 02 5 110 142 32 30.67 3.1 03 5 120 139 29
- 8. RESULT: The penetration of bituminous material is 30.67
- 9. CONCLUSION: We found that our sample lies in the range of 30-40 Grade which is recommended for warmer regions. As Bangladesh is a comparatively warm region, this sample is usable for road construction.
- 10. DETERMINATION OF SPECIFIC GRAVITY OF BITUMEN
- 11. INTRODUCTION: The ratio of mass of a given volume of bitumen to the mass of an equal volume of water, both taken at a specified temperature. The specific gravity of bitumen varies from 1.03 to 1.06.
- 12. AIMS OF THIS TEST: This test is done to determine the specific gravity of semi-solid bitumen road tars.
- 13. APPARATUS: 1. Pycnometer. 2. Glass. 3. Water bath. 4. Thermometer. 5. Weight apparatus.
- 14. CALCULATION: Empty weight of pycnometer (A) = 37.289 gm. Weight of pycnometer + water (B) = 97.014 gm. Weight of pycnometer + partly filled bitumen (C) = 45.156 gm. Weight of pycnometer + partly filled bitumen + partly filled water (D) = 97.226 gm. Specific gravity = (𝑪−𝑨) [ 𝑩−𝑨 −(𝑫−𝑪)] = (45.156 ˗ 37.289) / [(97.014 - 37.289) - (97.226 45.156)] = 1.027
- 15. RESULT: The specific gravity of our sample was 1.027.
- 16. CONCLUSION: The expected specific gravity of bituminous material should lie in the range of 1.03-1.06. But our sample showed the specific gravity of 1.027 which is close enough to the desired value.
