Investigation of Seismic Parameters of R.C. Building on Sloping Ground
Journal Title: International Journal of Advanced Engineering Research and Science - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 8
Abstract
As we all know that the R.C. structures which are constructed on slope of mountains are commonly asymmetrical in shape in downward gradient and when these are in contact with earthquake effects, exposed to massive destruction. When considering the horizontal and vertical planes of these R.C. structures, it shows dissimilar floor stiffness along with floor mass. The objective of this investigation is to compare the outcomes from dynamic method of earthquake analysis performed on R.C. structures with five different configurations like, regular building, Step back building 200, Step back building 300, Step back Set back 200 building and Step back Set back 300 building are presented. Analysis containing storey displacement in X and Z directions along with the storey drift, storey shear and time period has carried out by using Response Spectrum Method.
Determination of Resistance Parameters of Contaminated Compacted Tropical Soils in the State of Rio de Janeiro
Direct shear (DS) tests with controlled shear rates were performed in two soils from the Baixada Fluminense region, in the city of São João do Meriti – Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The first soil characterized as Inorganic Cl...
Towards a New Concept of Closed System: From the Oscillating Universe to the EM-Drive
The EM-Drive, as long as it is considered a closed system, explicitly violates the conservation of momentum and Newton's well-known third law: however, it would appear, according to several tests to date, that the device...
Cladding welding of CA6M with pulsed FCAW and results analysis through the L9 TAGUCHI and ANOVA
The cladding welding analysis with pulsed flux cored arc welding (FCAW) process, were carried over a AISI 1020 base metal (thickness 12,7 mm, width 63,5 and length 185mm) with an CA6NM steel wire with diameter of 1.2mm....
Synthesis of natural ether lipids and 1-O-hexadecylglycero-arylboronates via an epoxide-ring opening approach: Potential antifouling additives to marine paint coatings
In this paper a new and efficient procedure for the synthesis of natural 1-O- alkyl glyceryl ethers such as chimyl (1), batyl (2) and selachyl (3) is described. Alkyl glycidyl ethers (4-6) were synthetized using solvents...
Geotechnical Investigation of Fracture Patterns in a Rock Mass during Excavation by Blasting Author: Felix Oppong, Isa
Overcharging in rocks (wall faces) during blasting and excavation usually causes damage to rock mass in most mining and quarry industries. This creates blast-induced fractures which can relates with pre-existing fracture...
