scholarly journals Flexural Strength and Toughness Behaviour of Polymer Concrete with Partial Replacement of Fine Aggregate by M-Sand

The development segment for a structure solid assumes a significant job everywhere throughout the world the solid ought to have high compressive and flexural quality. Presently a day accessibility of regular assets is diminished due to the ecological issues are government limited sand quarries are supremacist in shortage and expands cost. So we need to move for the fake fine total in this paper rather than stream sand to assembling sand in incomplete supplant with SBR (polymer) in high quality on concrete different cement blends were assessed for compressive quality and Flexural quality. The common stream sand was mostly supplanted with m-sand by 0%, 25%, half and included the different rates of SBR latex (0,3,6,9,12) was likewise improving the usefulness concrete. The outcome shows that the there is a step by step expanded in the compressive quality and Flexural quality for this situation half substitution of m-sand and furthermore included the level of SBR increment the functionality However, further increases of m-sand caused a decrease in the quality. The ideal rate substitution of normal sand of m-sand is half and upgraded substance of polymer 9 % is gotten. Diagrams were drawn and results contrasted and controlled blend.

The common sense of modern times was not always “common” in the past. For example, if it is true that inflation is caused by an oversupply of money, a short supply of money must cause deflation. However logical that sounds, though, it has not been so uncommon in history that rising prices were recognized as being caused by a scarcity of currency. Even in the same period, a common idea prevailing in one historical area was not always common in another; rather, it sometimes appeared in quite the opposite direction. It is likely that the idea that a government gains from bad currencies, while traders appreciate good ones, is popular throughout the world. In the case of China, however, its dynasties sometimes intentionally issued high-quality coins without regard to their losses. East Asia shared the idea that cheap currency harms the state, while an expensive currency harms the people. This is in considerable contrast with a common image in other regions that authorities gained profits from seigniorage.

The study evaluates the use of waste basalt powder as a replacement of cement to enhance hydration of cement and mortar properties. The basalt powder is a waste resulting from preparation of aggregate used in asphalt mixture production. Previous studies have shown that analysed waste used as a fine aggregate replacement has a beneficial effect on some properties of mortar and concrete, i.e. compressive strength, flexural strength and freeze resistance. The present study shows the results of the research concerning the modification of cement paste and mortar with basalt powder. The modification consists in adding the powder waste as a partial replacement of cement. The percentages of basalt powder in this research are 0-40% and 0-20% by mass of cement in the pastes and mortars respectively. The experiments were carried out to determine the influence of basalt powder on cement hydration, as well as compressive and flexural strength. Results indicate that addition of basalt powder as a replacement of cement leads to deterioration of compressive strength. The flexural strength of mortar is improved in some cases. Waste basalt powder only slightly influences the cement hydration.

Climate change is becoming increasingly unpredictable as the climate dries up, protected areas grown with vegetables are growing every day, but farmers in this area are facing a number of problems, including pests of green cucumber lice (Aphis gossypii), the common thrips. (Thrips tabaci), the common red spider (Tetranychus urticae). Scientists around the world are conducting studies to propose solutions. The use of material that allows the passage of a larger amount of UV rays inhibits the development of aphid colonies. The dual application of Lecanicillium longisporum for the simultaneous suppression of green lice of cucumbers and powdery mildew has been demonstrated. Beauveria bassiana preparations are highly effective against tripe. For a future assured with high quality vegetables, it is necessary to develop as diverse methods as possible to control pests, so that each farmer can choose the method that suits him, both technologically and economically. The methods should be applicable in the most diverse areas of the earth. We must learn to model not only favorable climatic conditions but to create a healthy and viable ecosystem, so the greenhouses will generate profit for the farmer, fresh and tasty products for us.

The rate of waste tire generation globally continues to escalate due to increase in vehicle usage. Scrap tires continue to pose serious environmental, health and aesthetic problems. Due limitation in the recycling of scrap tires, one of the most viable solution is to used crumb rubber from scrap tire as partial replacement to fine aggregate in concrete industry. This is rationalized as the production of concrete hit more than 3.8 billion cubic meters annually, therefore, it could provide a solution on conservation of natural aggregate and as well as improve properties of concrete. However, the major setback in the use of crumb rubber in concrete is loss in strength.  In this paper, crumb rubber was used to partially replaced fine aggregate at 0%, 10%, 20% and 30% by volume in roller compacted concrete for pavement applications to produce roller compacted rubbercrete (RCR) to improve its flexural strength and ductility. Several trials were done to achieve the combined grading as recommended by ACI 211.3R, and finally a combination of 55% fine aggregate, 40% coarse aggregate and 5% fine sand as mineral filler was used. In order to mitigate the effect of strength loss, silica fume and fly ash were used to replace natural fine sand as mineral fillers. The Results showed that fresh density, compressive, splitting and flexural strengths decreases with increase in partial replacement of fine aggregate with crumb rubber. However using silica fume as a mineral filler was successful in mitigating loss in compressive, tensile and flexural strengths for up to 20% crumb rubber replacement level, while fly ash as a mineral filler mitigated loss in strength for up to 10% crumb rubber compared natural fine sand mineral filler. The flexural strength was found to increase with 10% crumb rubber for all type of mineral filler

The diversification of the world has given us the opportunity to live with different people. This kind of diversification brings not only adventure and excitements but also interaction with people and their habits that we do not agree with. In response, toleration has become the common sense of people in modern society. However, what is the meaning of the word toleration? What moral emotions underlie the practice of toleration? This article puts forward a morally defensible concept of toleration inspired by ancient Chinese thinking. I first discuss the etymology of the word toleration from Anglophone and Chinese perspectives, and then analyse three problematical emotional attitudes towards others (disgust, indifference and hunting for novelty) and critique the spirit of exclusion in the dominant Anglophone understanding of toleration. Finally, I analyse a morally defensible concept of toleration based on the ‘the dao of zhong and shu’ (忠恕之道) that also served as the ideal underpinning political unity and appreciation for cultural diversity in ancient China.

For the recycling of rapid-cooled steel slag (RCSS), various specimens were prepared with the different replacement ratios of RCSS and the addition ratios of polymer binder. The physical properties of these specimens were then investigated by compressive strength test, flexural strength test, water absorption test, hot water resistance test, measurement of pore distribution and observation of micro-structures using scanning electron microscope(SEM). Results showed that compressive and flexural strength increased with the addition ratios of polymer binder and replacement ratios of RCSS, but those strengths decreased reversely when addition ratio of polymer binder and replacement ratio of RCSS were excessively high. By the hot water resistance test, the compressive strength and flexural strength decreased remarkably and total pore volume increased but bulk density decreased. SEM observation of structure before hot water resistance test revealed very compact infusion of structure but decomposition or thermal degradation appeared in polymer binder when observed after the hot water resistance test.

The most widely used material in the world is concrete, consequently there is a large requirement for raw material of concrete such as Fine Aggregate, Coarse Aggregate and cement. the huge extraction of the aggregate for manufacturing of concrete as serious effect on the environment due to depletion of natural resources and pollution. This affects the eco system to great extent. Hence the project deals with finding replacement for the existing raw material used in concrete by replacing the fine aggregate from river which is largely used in construction by chiton shell. Sea shell is the corpus of the marine organism. The sea shell has been grinded to 4.75mm and then replaced in the concrete. M20 mix was used and cubic specimen were casted for 5 different percentage of partial replacement as 0%, 5%, 10 %, 20%, and 25 %. All the specimens are tested for 7 & 28 days compressive, flexural and split tensile strength. it has been noted that the highest strength is obtained for 25% replacement of chiton shell. it was also observed that  addition of sea shell power in concrete reduced workability hence superplasticizer were added to improve the consistency.
