Effect of Colloidal Nanosilica on High Strength Rice Husk Ash Concrete
Abstract: Nowadays, supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) are used in concrete because it reduces CO2 emission during. The husks, which are production of cement, reduces cement contents, improve workability, increase strength and enhance durability. Pozzolanic reaction takes place when siliceous or aluminous material comes in contact with calcium hydroxide in the presence of moisture to form compounds possessing cementitious properties approximately 50 percent cellulose, 30 percent lignin and 20 percent silica, are …

Free Swelling Behaviour of Bentonite-sand Mixtures in Presence of Pore Fluids of Different Dielectric Constants
Abstract: The free swelling behaviour of bentonite sand mixtures have been studied using different percentage of ethanol-water and methanol-water solutions. Free swell index tests were conducted at different proportion of ethanol and methanol with distilled water(0%, 20%, 40%, 60%, 80% and 100%). Free swell index (FSI), modified free swell index (MFSI) and free swell ratio (FSR) were determined from the results obtained from the tests. FSI, MFSI and FSR decrease with …

Rural Building Base Isolation for Seismic Protection Using LRB and Friction Isolator
Abstract: Over 50% of the population of India, which is still developing, lives in unreinforced masonry buildings. Masonry constructions perform poorly and can collapse suddenly because they are susceptible to seismic loads and loads acting out of plane. Building collapse not only destroys public property but also claims life. It has been demonstrated that base isolation approaches for these types of structures are advantageous; in the event of seismic forces, they …
