Assessment of Depth of Girder of Railway Bridge
Abstract: The depth of a railway bridge girder is primarily determined by the span of the girder. The load exertedon the girder by passing trains induces a bending tendency, which is counteracted by the girder'sthickness or depth. This structural depth is crucial in neutralizing the bending moments and ensuringthe stability and safety of the bridge. Furthermore, the calculated depth or thickness of the girder mustbe validated against permissible deflection limits to …

Mechanical properties of Poly vinyl alcohol and Nitrocellulose blends.
Abstract: Mechanical properties of polyvinyl alcohol and nitrocellulose blends has been determined successfully via tensile strength, Young’s modulus, percentage elongation and impact strength. The blends of the respective polymers are in the ratio PVA:NC (90:10,80:20,60:40,50:0,40:60,10:90). There are good results from different blend ratios which include tensile strength PVA: NC 90:10 (16.98MPa) Young’s modulus 60:40 (0.71MPa). The highest percentage elongation was observed for 80:20 at 160.09%. The most elastic blend ration was …

Energy Conservation with use of Cool Roof Coatings
Abstract: Regions with hot and dry climate often experience very high levels of solar radiation, high ambient temperatures and relatively low specific humidity. The roofs of buildings in such areas are always exposed to Sun for long duration during the daytime. Solar radiation is responsible for heat transfer through the building roof. Actually, Solar radiation heat the roof which in turn reradiates the heat onto the ceiling and finally on to …
