https://civil.journalspub.info/index.php?journal=IJCE&page=article&op=view&path%5B%5D=868
This research work monitor that application of periwinkle and palm kernel shell as partial replacement for aggregate, the study are carried out applying modeling and simulation techniques, concrete are normally heterogeneous in most cases, but the study try to examine the growth rate of the material on their compressive strength, such process were carried out using these two locally sourced material at different percentage of replacement for aggregate, the study monitor the impact of parameters to determine their level of significant effect on compressive strength, these parameters are the porosity and permeability’s including the void percentage of the concrete mix, the system simulated these parameters by variations, their level of impact were observed in the growth rates of the compressive strength, the study examined the variation percentage of replacement between palm kernel and periwinkle shell, it was observed that the permissible limit should not exceed [25% and 50%] the required strength can only be gotten within these limits, because the study on the replacement percent observed decrease at different figures but with at exponential rates in individual figures, but with the combination of these figures at different percentage of replacement, decrease with respect to increase in percentage of replacement were observed. The replacement was carried out ranging from 0%, 25% 50%, 75%, 100% at the curing age of 7, 14, 21 and 28-days. The application of water cement ratio 0.6 was used. At 1:2:4, the study applying modeling and simulation techniques to determined the influence of porosity, void ratio and permeability effect on the growth rate of the compressive strength, it also observed the effect on the these parameters heterogeneity in the concrete mix, based on the applied locally sourced materials [PKS and PS]. The simulation values were compared with the experimental values of Sulaiman and Olatunde 2019], from compressive strength. These two materials should not be recommendation for heavy loaded structures, the study from the simulation also observed that the strength development depend on the curing age. More so, the required cement paste that generate bond can only express efficiency on the shell, when the cement content remain the same, this implies that the bonding is inadequate. As the strength predominantly depends to a large extent on good bonding between cement paste and the aggregate, this study finally observed that between these two materials, PS is best material that is suited as replacement as granite in concrete than PKS. It is recommended that the mix-ratio should be altered to get higher values of compressive strength.Solomon Ndubuisi EluozoEbirim S.Egbebike J.

https://civil.journalspub.info/index.php?journal=IJCE&page=article&op=view&path%5B%5D=867
Waste management poses a significant challenge for countries in both current and future contexts. The generation of solid waste from various industries, such as stone, glass, coal, and tires, constitutes a major issue in India, leading to significant environmental and health concerns for the surrounding population. This study addresses these challenges by exploring the utilization of waste granite and glass powder as materials to replace sand and cement, respectively, with the addition of 20% fly ash. Waste granite powder was sourced from the stone industry, while glass powder was obtained from discarded glass bottles, windows, and jars. Different proportions of waste granite (10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, and 50%) were utilized as a replacement for sand, and varying percentages of glass (5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, and 25%) were used as a substitute for cement. The workability of both control and blended mixes was assessed using the slump cone test. Mechanical properties were examined through tests measuring compressive strength, flexural strength, and splitting tensile strength. Durability performances were evaluated based on porosity, water absorption, and the rapid chloride penetration test. The results indicated that the mechanical properties of the concrete were significantly enhanced due to the pozzolanic and filler effects of glass and granite fines. The introduction of glass and granite powder led to a reduction in porosity and water absorption, attributed to the improved packing density of the concrete. Based on the findings, it can be concluded that a blend containing 15% glass powder, 30% granite powder, and 20% fly ash in Portland Pozzolana Cement (PPC) demonstrated favorable properties. This suggests a promising avenue for sustainable and efficient waste utilization in the construction industry.Kishan Lal JainShruti BhargavaJatin Meena

https://civil.journalspub.info/index.php?journal=IJCE&page=article&op=view&path%5B%5D=866
The work aims in identifying the causes of delay in construction projects and the acceleration techniques adopted to overcome them. Questionnaire survey with experts from industry was used for generation of data and analyzed using Relative Importance Index and Spearmen’s Rank Correlation Coefficient test. On analyses it was noticed that project complexity, labour challenges and resequencing of activities are the main barriers impacting the timeline for construction projects. Various acceleration techniques were found to be effective in putting the project on track, of which the most reliable has been to increase resource and work on shifts to accomplish goalsSmitha Yadav

https://civil.journalspub.info/index.php?journal=IJCE&page=article&op=view&path%5B%5D=865
This research centers on the incorporation of welding slag, the residue remaining after the welding process, as fine aggregates in the production of high-performance concrete with a compressive strength of 70 MPa. The chemical and physical characteristics of welding slag aggregates (WSA), such as chemical compositions, specific gravity, SEM images, XRD, and EDS analysis, were investigated. Additional investigations were carried out by substituting welding slag with standard sand at varying proportions (10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, and 50%). The fresh concrete characteristics, including the slump cone test, were evaluated for all blends. Additionally, the hardened properties, such as compressive strength, split tensile strength, flexural strength, Ultrasonic Pulse Velocity test (UPV), and water absorption test, were systematically assessed.A.

People naturally want to comprehend their surroundings. Today, developed nations spend over 90% of their populations indoors, mostly in structures and environments constructed, controlled, and planned by humans. Since individuals go from their homes to their employment, germs are continuous with and around them. Indoor microorganisms cohabit with outside soil and water bacteria. It is commonly found in animals, plants, rodents, and water tracked indoors on shoes and breathed in. Human skin and systems such as the digestive tract and human actions that impact their transit and disposal are home to many microorganisms. People are exposed to many germs indoors.Dimpleben P.

https://civil.journalspub.info/index.php?journal=IJCE&page=article&op=view&path%5B%5D=813
<p><em>Civil Industry is a rapidly growing industry in this is due to the country's huge economic, social, and infrastructural development. This development of the construction industry leads to a negative impact on the environment and harms human beings. Hence, to reduce this the concept of ‘Green Building Technology is put forward in recent years. Green Building Technology is a rating system adopted worldwide which provides unique guidelines to make construction sustainable. This includes the construction of Residential, Commercial, Retails, Schools, Core & Shell, etc. for new as well as for existing building that gets retrofitted. This building obtains certificates from the rating agencies of the world. The aim of this paper is to evaluate the green rating System for Building such as LEED, GRIHA, and IGBC on one platform. The evaluation is done through the web application. The stakeholders such as Engineers, Builders, architects, and Owners can apply for this certification program. Therefore, the paper was focused on building a web application using the ASP.Net framework and programming languages. Website for Evaluation of Green Rating System for Building has been designed and built with the database design and implemented using Microsoft SQL server to build the structure of the system. ASP.Net it operates on the HTTP protocol and establishes a bilateral communication and cooperation between a browser and a server through the utilization of commands and policies.</em></p>Priyanka R.
