Carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) is a type of composite materials consist of carbon fiber and polymer. The carbon fiber provides the strength and stiffness while the polymer acts as cohesive
The use of carbon dioxide directly i.e. without chemical modification, or after chemical conversion processes for the production of building construction materials is a key strategy to mitigate cli
New Engineering Contract is a contracting system developed to effectively manage a project from the inception to the final phase of the construction project. These contracts are described and written in simple English and designed in a structure that is easily understandable. Conventional contracts had several setbacks that led to an upturn in conflicts of
As nanotechnology is a science that controls the dimensions in the transition zone at the atomic level, the products developed from this method gain extraordinary functionalities. The application of nanotechnology in various building products and substances showed tremendous progress in the construction industry. The main focus now is to study how these functions can contribute
Fire safety and property protection systems for buildings requires knowledge and understanding of hazards to decrease the potential fire occurrence and its risk to life and property during fire.</p
Special cements are used to serve some specific functions in concrete and masonry construction. These functions can be altering the setting or hardening behavior of concrete, produce different arch
Cellular Lightweight Concrete (CLC) also known as Foamed concrete is one of the most significant type of concrete used for construction purposes due to its various advantages and usages over tradit
Pipe jacking and utility tunneling methods are types of trenchless construction methods, which involves the requirement of laborers to enter the bore hole. Following are the types of trenchless construction approaches as shown in figure-1. Fig.1: Trenchless building Methods We will discuss pipe jacking and utility tunneling approaches in this article. The driving takes place
Cellular concrete is a special engineered concrete manufactured by mixing Portland cement, sand, fly ash, water and pre-formed foam in varied proportions to form a hardened material having an oven-
Cell-filled concrete pavement is the technology developed by IIT Kharagpur, which has proved to be a very promising solution for overloaded vehicles, inadequate drainage facilities, and waterloggin
