Design and Construction of Burj Khalifa

Excavation work began for Burj Khalifa the tallest skyscraper in the world in January 2004 and over the years, the building passed many important milestones to become the tallest man-made structure the world has ever seen. In just 1,325 days since excavation work started in January, 2004, Burj Khalifa became the tallest free-standing structure in the world. The goal of the Burj

Reinforced Cement Concrete Design - Concepts and Theories

Since concrete is a brittle material and is strong in compression. It is weak in tension, so steel is used inside concrete for strengthening and reinforcing the tensile strength of concrete. The steel must have appropriate deformations to provide strong bonds and interlocking of both materials.

Types of Tube Wells and Design of Strainer for Tube Wells

In design, find its length, slot size, opening area, diameter and material requirements Corrosion resistant Strong enough to prevent collapse Prevent excessive movement of sand into well Materials used for Tube Well Construction Zinc free brass Stainless steel Low carbon steel High copper alloy

Design Of Non Erodible Channels

The Initial dimensions of a channel are determined by uniform flow or manning formula. But final dimensions are determined on the basis of 1. Hydraulic efficiency 2. Empirical rule of the best section. 3. Practicability And Economy

Public Health Engineering

The public health engineering sector is responsible for the Collection of water, purification, transmission and distribution of water. A Public Health Engineer has to perform his job by calculating design flow, design population, design area and population density. Quality of the collected water is checked by physical and chemical tests on water and if the quantity is not

Preliminary Treatment of Waste Water

The first unit operation generally encountered in wastewater treatment plants is screening. A screen is a device with openings, generally of uniform size, that is used to retain solids found in the influent wastewater to the treatment pant. The principal role of screening is to remove coarse materials (pieces of wood, plastics, rags, papers, leaves, roots etc.) from the

Causes of Roadway/Highway Failure

Pavement considered flexible and the failure mechanism is assumed to be plastic deformation due to the communicative load over the life of pavement. Elastic Deformation: Temporary deforms the foundation material and compresses the air that fills the voids of the base and subgrade. In truly elastic deflection, permanent unevenness does not occur, even under repeated

Design & Construction of Culverts

An opening through an embankment for the conveyance of water by mean of pipe or an enclosed channel. Generally selection and type of material depends on the comparative cost, location of structure, availability of skilled labor, time limitations.

Typical Cross Section of Roads and Highways

In meeting oncoming vehicle or passing slower ones, the portion selected by a driver depends primarily on the paved surfaced width of the highway. The width of the surfaced road and the no of lanes should are adequate to accommodate the type and volume of traffic anticipated and the assumed design speed of vehicles.

Geometric Design of Highways and Roads

The geometric design of highway includes the principle elements of highway alignment, x-sections and adjacent road side environment. The three dimensional physical location determined through calculation of horizontal and vertical alignment of highway centerline, based on variety of operational considerations results in the geometric design and represent all

Activated Sludge Process Design

The activated sludge form the underflow of the final setting tanks should be returned to the inlet of the aeration tanks at a rote sufficient to maintain the MLSS concentration at the design value. Excess activated sludge withdrawal system and subsequent treatment and disposal of waste sludge. Since the whole process takes place in a liquid medium the hydraulic

Types of Slopes | Natural, Artificial, Finite, Infinite

Infinite Slope: The type of slope extending infinitely, or upto an extent whose boundaries are not well defined. For this type of slope the soil properties for all identical depths below the surface are same. In the making of natural slopes, thier is no contribution from our side.

ACI Method Concrete Mix Design & Mix Ratio

Mix design can be defined as the process of selecting suitable ingredients of concrete and determining their relative proportions with the object of producing concrete of certain minimum strength and durability as economically as possible. One of the ultimate aims of studying the various properties of the materials of concrete, plastic concrete and hardened concrete is to

How to Design Barrage

The Barrage and the Head Regulators of feeder channels and appurtenant structures will be designed on the basis of standard design criteria established for other barrages and allied structures, already constructed on the Indus River and its tributaries.
