Influence of GGBFS on the Mechanical Properties of the Water Cured Fly Ash Aggregate-Based Geopolymer Concrete
Abstract: Abstract Conventional concrete consists of cement, sand as fine aggregate and gravel, limestone or granite in various sizes and shapes as coarse aggregate including with water. In the present work, the feasibility of using industrial inorganic polymeric residues wastes as a total (100%) replacement to the traditionally used normal conventional concrete materials is examined in the preparation of the geopolymer concrete (GPC). In this GPC, the cement is totally replaced …

The Environmental Impact of Soil Pollution on Human Health
Abstract: Soils are shaped by the decomposition of rock and organic matter over several years. Soil properties vary from place to place with difference in bedrock composition, climate and other factors. Certain chemical elements occur naturally in soils as components of minerals, yet may be toxic at some concentration. Various other potentially harmful substance may end up mixing with soils through human activities. This may lead to soil contamination which in …

Field Investigation on the Use of Mobile Phone While Driving
Abstract: While talking through mobile phone, drivers are much less aware of what is happening on the road around them; fail to see road signs, maintain proper lane position and steady speed; react more slowly and take longer to brake. Moreover, drivers are more likely to enter unsafe gaps in traffic, feel more stressed and frustrated, and are more likely to tailgate the vehicle in front. This paper demonstrates field investigation …
