Analysis of Box Culvert with Different Aspect Ratio
Abstract: Box culverts are the default buried structure type, where pipe solutions are not suitable. Their larger openings are often required to provide adequate hydraulic capacity. Box culverts are also frequently used for pedestrian or cattle underpasses. The reinforcement used in concrete box culverts can be either conventional bar reinforcement or welded wire fabric. Welded wire fabric has yield strength slightly larger than conventional bar reinforcement. Standard designs for precast concrete …

Treatment of Dairy Wastewater Using Constructed Wetland
Abstract: Naturally existing wetlands have been used for dumping various types of wastewaters and have been promised to dispose of these wastewaters. As a matter of fact, in some areas, natural wetlands still serve this purpose solely and are nothing more than dumping sites. However, extensive research suggested the use of Wetlands for Treatment purposes. Understanding the dynamics of the processes in natural wetlands leads to the use of those processes …
