Cause and importance of Liquefaction

The deposit of soil, characteristically, can be compacted through the adjustment of the particles inside; however, at the same time, water is incompressible as a nature. Subsequently, any expansion to the stress following up on a fully saturated soil-if it happens quickly enough and is sufficiently vast to totally overcome the resistance introduced by the […]

Verification of Bernoulli’s Theorem

Aim: to prove Bernoulli’s Theorem Tool: Stopwatch Measuring tank An apparatus for verification of Bernoulli’s theorem Basics: Bernoulli’s theorem says that for a stream lined, steady, incompressible and exclusive of friction fluid flow, the total of pressure head, velocity head and potential head have to be uniform. Water or any other liquid at constant head […]

splitting tensile test on concrete cylinders
Splitting Tensile Strength Test on Concrete Cylinders

Aim: To calculate the splitting tensile of concrete Theory: Tensile strength of concrete is the most fundamental and significant property among many. Splitting tensile strength test on concrete cylinder is a technique to resolve the tensile strength of concrete. The concrete is very fragile in stress because of its fragile character and is not anticipated to oppose […]

Reynolds’ Experiment

Aim: To conduct Reynold’s experiment for assessment of various regimes of the flow Theory: The flow of real liquids can fundamentally happen under two altogether different regimes in particular laminar and turbulent flow. The laminar flow is described by liquid particles moving as lamina sliding over each other, with the end goal that at any […]

Plate Girder Bridges

Plate girders got to be distinctly famous in the late 1800’s, the point at which they were utilized as a part of development of railroad scaffolds. The plates were consolidated utilizing edges and bolts to get plate girders of coveted size. By 1950’s welded plate girders supplanted bolted and catapulted plate girders in first world […]

Load Bearing Masonry

Load bearing masonry work is among the most seasoned and most far reaching building systems on the planet. The most punctual load bearing masonry work comprised to masonries loaded one over the other. Over the progression of time, the masonries were etched and dressed to make more steady masonry work dividers. The terminating of earth […]
