What is the most suitable volume of concrete batching plant for a transmission interconnection project?
As a civil engineering point of view for accurate measurement of any material weight batching is preferred over volume batching for large constructions. Refer IS 4925(2004) 40 tales of concrete batching plants and their volumes The volume of transit mixer is around the 6.1-metre cube. The volume ofRead more

Global Positioning System (GPS) refers to the NAVSTAR Global Positioning System, a constellations of satellites developed by the United States Department of Defence. At first the GPS was made for military use only, but later made accessible to civilians as well. But recently, GPS is most widely used GNSS satellite constellation in the world.
Globalnaya Navigazionnaya Sputnikovaya Sistema (GLONASS) is an acronym which is translated from Russian, this means Global Navigation Satellite System. It is accessible for both military and civil use and also provides real time position and velocity determination.
The main difference between GPS & GLONASS is that, with GPS satellites use the same radio frequencies but have different codes for communication while GLONASS satellites have the same codes but use different frequencies, allowing satellites on the same orbital plane to communicate.

Some of the advantages of using a steel tube rather than solid section steel are :- 1. Less Steel used so less cost. 2. Less Weight for a given design strength. 3. Less Weight for a given Length.

The seasoning of bricks is exactly expressed as allowing the brick to absorb water. It is also known as weathering of bricks.

The seasoning of bricks is exactly expressed as allowing the brick to absorb water. It is also known as weathering of bricks. The moisture obtained by the bricks should be able to react with the chemical in the brick. If the moisture obtained by the brick is in its limit and any swelling or deterioration is observed to weed out this damaged brick. Then only sound bricks that are seasoned are used.
See lesshow to calculate the rate of spray of prime coat in road construction.
Tray Test is used to calculate the rate of spread of prime or tack coat. The test uses a 20cm X 20 cm X 3 cm tray placed on the surface to be primed at some intervals in the path of the sprayer/emulsion distributor. They are placed between the wheel's path/tracks. 5 samples are collected for a testRead more
Tray Test is used to calculate the rate of spread of prime or tack coat. The test uses a 20cm X 20 cm X 3 cm tray placed on the surface to be primed at some intervals in the path of the sprayer/emulsion distributor. They are placed between the wheel’s path/tracks.
5 samples are collected for a test and a minimum of 3 tests are conducted for a day of work.
Weight of the emulsion on the tray is calculated by finding the difference in the final and the initial weight of the tray. Weight per unit sq.m or weight per 10 sq.m is obtained and checked with specified limits mentioned in MORT&H Table 500–3 (prime coat) and 500–5 (Tack coat) or other relevant IRC specifications.
Initially before the start of the priming work, a demonstration trial is done based on the following parameters:
Above values are ascertained and calibrated for a required rate of spray as per the specification by using tray test prior to the start of actual work.

Flexural strength is the maximum strength (stress) either yield or up to fracture that a structure or element or a member could bear. It could be measures in terms of modulus of rupture at yield also.
Where in modulus of rupture is just showing the present stress condition within the member or element itself. If the member is on the verge of failure i.e on the verge of fracture than the modulus of rupture will give Flexural strength.
