carbon black as an additive in concretetp jayamohan
Concrete is the essential construction material used for many applications in the
construction industry. Though it is used worldwide, it has its ill effects like the presence of pores
and micro-cracks. These ill effects lead to acid intrusion and less resistance to atmospheric
attack. As a result, its durability and strength get reduced. The current tendency in the world is to
find new materials at lower cost which can guarantee better performances during their
incorporations in the concrete. Usage of waste materials for construction purpose enhances the
traditional methods of construction. The effect of addition of carbon black powder, a waste from
rubber industry as a filler material in concrete is investigated. Study on uniformity, surface
hardness, split tensile strength, flexural strength and compressive strength of concrete specimens
containing various percentages of carbon black were carried out. The effect of added carbon
black to concrete mix on corrosion of steel reinforcement was studied. This was achieved by
inserting steel bars in different concrete mixes containing 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, and 0.5, carbon
black/cement. Carbon black as a filler enhances the performance of concrete.
Crumb Rubber Modified Bitumen (CRMB) is hydrocarbon binder obtained through physical and chemical interaction of crumb rubber (produced by recycling of used tyres) with bitumen and some specific additives.

Establishing relationship between cbr with different soil propertieseSAT Journals
Abstract
In the flexible pavements sub-grade is considered to be an ideal layer to resist wheel load and its CBR value is considered as the strength measuring parameter. Conducting CBR test is an expensive and time consuming test, moreover it is very difficult to mould the sample at a desired in-situ density in the laboratory. Further, if the available soil is of poor quality, suitable additives are mixed with soil and resulting strength of soil is assessed by CBR value which is cumbersome. To overcome these problems, the other methods such as regression based models (simple & multiple) are used in this study. The soil properties like liquid limit, plastic limit, plasticity index, optimum moisture content, maximum dry density and percentage fineness of the soil (passing 75micron sieve) are determined for the soil collected from different areas of Bagalkot district and the models are developed for correlating soaked CBR value.
Keywords: CBR, regression models, liquid limit, plastic limit, plasticity index, optimum moisture content and maximum dry density.
INVESTIGATION ON FLY ASH AS A PARTIAL CEMENT REPLACEMENT IN CONCRETESk Md Nayar
The use of Portland cement in concrete construction is under critical review due to high
amount of carbon dioxide gas released to the atmosphere during the production of cement. In
recent years, attempts to increase the utilization of fly ash to partially replace the use of Portland
cement in concrete are gathering momentum. Most of this by-product material is currently
dumped in landfills, creating a threat to the environment.
Fly ash based concrete is a ‘new’ material that does not need the presence of Portland
cement as a binder. Instead, the source of materials such as fly ash, that are rich in Silicon (Si)
and Aluminium (Al), are activated by alkaline liquids to produce the binder.
This project reports the details of development of the process of making fly ash-based
concrete. Due to the lack of knowledge and know-how of making of fly ash based concrete in the
published literature, this study adopted a rigorous trial and error process to develop the
technology of making, and to identify the salient parameters affecting the properties of fresh and
hardened concrete. As far as possible, the technology that is currently in use to manufacture and
testing of ordinary Portland cement concrete were used.
Fly ash was chosen as the basic material to be activated by the geopolimerization process
to be the concrete binder, to totally replace the use of Portland cement. The binder is the only
difference to the ordinary Portland cement concrete. To activate the Silicon and Aluminium
content in fly ash, a combination of sodium hydroxide solution and sodium silicate solution was
used.
Manufacturing process comprising material preparation, mixing, placing, compaction and
curing is reported in the thesis. Napthalene-based superplasticiser was found to be useful to
improve the workability of fresh fly ash-based concrete, as well as the addition of extra water.
The main parameters affecting the compressive strength of hardened fly ash-based concrete are
the curing temperature and curing time, The molar H2O-to-Na2O ratio, and mixing time.
Fresh fly ash-based concrete has been able to remain workable up to at least 120 minutes
without any sign of setting and without any degradation in the compressive strength. Providing a
rest period for fresh concrete after casting before the start of curing up to five days increased the
compressive strength of hardened concrete.
The elastic properties of hardened fly ash-based concrete, i,e. the modulus of elasticity,
the Poisson’s ratio, and the indirect tensile strength, are similar to those of ordinary Portland
cement concrete. The stress-strain relations of fly ash-based concrete fit well with the expression
developed for ordinary Portland cement concrete.

Book Formatting: Quality Control Checks for DesignersConfidence Ago
This presentation was made to help designers who work in publishing houses or format books for printing ensure quality.
Quality control is vital to every industry. This is why every department in a company need create a method they use in ensuring quality. This, perhaps, will not only improve the quality of products and bring errors to the barest minimum, but take it to a near perfect finish.
It is beyond a moot point that a good book will somewhat be judged by its cover, but the content of the book remains king. No matter how beautiful the cover, if the quality of writing or presentation is off, that will be a reason for readers not to come back to the book or recommend it.
So, this presentation points designers to some important things that may be missed by an editor that they could eventually discover and call the attention of the editor.
