Prediction of Compressive strength of Periwinkle Shell Aggregate Concrete Using a Quadratic Polynomial Function
Abstract: In this study, a mathematical model is developed to predict the compressive strength of normal concrete made with periwinkle shell as coarse aggregate using a quadratic polynomial function. The response function is expressed as a multivariable function of the proportions of the component materials (water, ordinary Portland cement, sand and periwinkle shell). A total of thirty experimental runs were used to demonstrate the applicability of the mathematical model developed. The …

Analysis and Design of Tapered Web Pre-engineered Building (PEB) Structure for Siesmic Zones
Abstract: The use of PEB instead of a conventional steel building (CSB) design idea resulted in a number of benefits, since the members were designed according to a bending moment diagram, lowering the amount of material required. Because of its high-quality pre-design and prefabrication, as well as its light weight and cost-effectiveness, this methodology is flexible. If we use ordinary steel constructions, the time frame will be longer, and the cost …
