1) Formwork is a temporary structure used to hold wet concrete in desired shape until it hardens. It is made of timber, plywood or steel sheets.
2) Shuttering is a temporary platform constructed using wooden or steel materials that supports the formwork during concrete pouring.
3) Scaffolding provides access to work areas and supports formwork and shuttering using materials like bamboo, wood or steel pipes.
Formwork is a temporary mold into which concrete is poured and shaped. It must be strong enough to support the weight of wet concrete and construction loads. Common materials for formwork include timber, steel, plastic, and aluminum. Proper construction and removal of formwork is important for quality, safety, and economy of concrete structures. Failure to properly brace, support, or remove formwork can lead to collapse during construction.
Joints are easy to maintain and are less detrimental than uncontrolled or uneven cracks. Concrete expands & shrinks with variations in moisture and temp. The overall affinity is to shrink and this can cause cracking at an early age. Uneven cracks are unpleasant and difficult to maintain but usually do not affect the integrity of concrete.

Experimental Investigation on Steel Concrete Composite Floor SlabIRJET Journal
This document summarizes an experimental investigation on steel-concrete composite floor slabs. Cold-formed steel decking with trapezoidal profiles was used to construct composite floor slabs with concrete. Shear connectors in the form of stud bolts connected the steel decking to the concrete. Three specimens were tested - an RCC slab, a composite slab, and a composite truss. The composite truss was fabricated from steel and connected to the decking and concrete with shear connectors. All specimens were tested for load carrying capacity. The composite truss performed comparably to the RCC slab and was found to effectively transfer loads through composite action between the steel and concrete components.

1) Reinforced concrete slabs are an important structural element used in modern buildings as floors and ceilings. They are supported by columns and beams.
2) There are different types of slab designs like corrugated, ribbed, and waffle slabs that improve the slab's strength-to-weight ratio by modulating the underside of the slab.
3) Concrete slabs can be cast either by being prefabricated off-site and transported or cast in place using formwork into which reinforcing steel bars and concrete are placed.
Steel reinforcement is used to strengthen concrete. Deformed steel bars or welded wire mesh are installed in formwork before pouring concrete. This creates a composite material with increased tensile and shear strength. Reinforcement prevents cracking and failure of concrete under loads. Common reinforcement materials include deformed bars, fabric mesh, and trench mesh configured for specific uses. Proper installation of reinforcement and vapor barriers is important for concrete strength and preventing moisture issues.
Formwork is used to shape and support concrete until it gains strength. It can be made from various materials like timber, plywood, steel, aluminum, and plastics. Timber was traditionally most common but other materials are increasingly used. Different types of formwork exist for walls, slabs, columns, etc. Proper formwork construction involves propping, shuttering, providing chambers, cleaning, and surface treatment. Formwork must be removed carefully in the proper sequence once the concrete has gained enough strength. The type of material used depends on factors like cost, availability, and need for reuse.
Formwork is a temporary mold used to contain and shape wet concrete until it hardens. It is commonly made from timber or steel. Formwork must balance requirements like containment, strength, resistance to leakage, accuracy, ease of handling, finish, access for concrete, and economy. It must safely support the weight of wet concrete and other loads until the concrete sets. Formwork design considers quality, safety, and minimizing costs through reuse. Forms are designed according to intended structural elements like walls, columns, beams, slabs, stairs, and more.
Formwork is temporary mould used to contain and shape wet concrete until it hardens. It is usually made of wood like plywood and timber. Proper formwork is strong, rigid, leak-proof and allows concrete to be easily placed and compacted. It must be inspected before each pour to ensure it will not deflect or collapse under the weight of wet concrete. Release agents are applied to formwork surfaces to ensure concrete does not stick when forms are removed.

Unbraced portal frames are now more commonly used as they provide large column-free spaces and are simpler and more economical. Portal frames typically have spans of 30-40m and use tapered columns and rafters. Roof bracing and wall bracing are needed to resist loads perpendicular to the frame. The document provides details on frame configurations, connections, and considerations in choosing framing and cladding materials.
Formwork is used to pour concrete into molds to form structures. It can be made from steel, wood, aluminum, or prefabricated forms. Good formwork is easy to remove, economical, leak-proof, rigid, durable, and provides smooth concrete surfaces. Formwork design considers categories like conventional, modern panel systems, and prefabricated modular systems. Steel, plywood, plastic, and aluminum are common materials. Proper bracing and erection sequences are needed to construct columns, beams, walls, stairs, and avoid failures during pouring.
This document provides information on cast-in-place and pre-cast concrete, as well as different types of concrete slabs and floor systems. It defines cast-in-place and pre-cast concrete, compares their advantages, and provides details on useful information for each method. It also describes different types of concrete slabs - flat slab, flat plate, waffle slab, ribbed floor slab, and lift slab. Finally, it discusses different types of floor systems including metal decking and concrete floor systems.
Sri Guru Hargobind Ji - Bandi Chor Guru.pdfBalvir Singh
Sri Guru Hargobind Ji (19 June 1595 - 3 March 1644) is revered as the Sixth Nanak.
• On 25 May 1606 Guru Arjan nominated his son Sri Hargobind Ji as his successor. Shortly
afterwards, Guru Arjan was arrested, tortured and killed by order of the Mogul Emperor
Jahangir.
• Guru Hargobind's succession ceremony took place on 24 June 1606. He was barely
eleven years old when he became 6th Guru.
• As ordered by Guru Arjan Dev Ji, he put on two swords, one indicated his spiritual
authority (PIRI) and the other, his temporal authority (MIRI). He thus for the first time
initiated military tradition in the Sikh faith to resist religious persecution, protect
people’s freedom and independence to practice religion by choice. He transformed
Sikhs to be Saints and Soldier.
• He had a long tenure as Guru, lasting 37 years, 9 months and 3 days

Paper Title
Particle Swarm Optimization–Long Short-Term Memory based Channel Estimation with Hybrid Beam Forming Power Transfer in WSN-IoT Applications

Abstract
Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access (NOMA) helps to overcome various difficulties in future technology wireless communications. NOMA, when utilized with millimeter wave multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems, channel estimation becomes extremely difficult. For reaping the benefits of the NOMA and mm-Wave combination, effective channel estimation is required. In this paper, we propose an enhanced particle swarm optimization based long short-term memory estimator network (PSOLSTMEstNet), which is a neural network model that can be employed to forecast the bandwidth required in the mm-Wave MIMO network. The prime advantage of the LSTM is that it has the capability of dynamically adapting to the functioning pattern of fluctuating channel state. The LSTM stage with adaptive coding and modulation enhances the BER.PSO algorithm is employed to optimize input weights of LSTM network. The modified algorithm splits the power by channel condition of every single user. Participants will be first sorted into distinct groups depending upon respective channel conditions, using a hybrid beamforming approach. The network characteristics are fine-estimated using PSO-LSTMEstNet after a rough approximation of channels parameters derived from the received data.

A high-Speed Communication System is based on the Design of a Bi-NoC Router, ...DharmaBanothu
The Network on Chip (NoC) has emerged as an effective
solution for intercommunication infrastructure within System on
Chip (SoC) designs, overcoming the limitations of traditional
methods that face significant bottlenecks. However, the complexity
of NoC design presents numerous challenges related to
performance metrics such as scalability, latency, power
consumption, and signal integrity. This project addresses the
issues within the router's memory unit and proposes an enhanced
memory structure. To achieve efficient data transfer, FIFO buffers
are implemented in distributed RAM and virtual channels for
FPGA-based NoC. The project introduces advanced FIFO-based
memory units within the NoC router, assessing their performance
in a Bi-directional NoC (Bi-NoC) configuration. The primary
objective is to reduce the router's workload while enhancing the
FIFO internal structure. To further improve data transfer speed,
a Bi-NoC with a self-configurable intercommunication channel is
suggested. Simulation and synthesis results demonstrate
guaranteed throughput, predictable latency, and equitable
network access, showing significant improvement over previous
designs

It includes sheathing, studs, wales, ties and braces.
Sheathing is the layer which constitutes the inner surface of
the form and is immediately in contact with the concrete.
If solid timber is used for sheathing, it may be 1", 11/4", 11/2",
2" thick, the opposite sides of the wall form are held in
correct positions by steel form ties, which resist the lateral
pressure of the concrete and serve as spacers to govern
width of the space between the forms.

Steel ties are fixed with the help of ties clamps to the wales
and these are cut to remove the formwork when concrete is
hardened.
The form, as a whole, is stabilized by inclined braces
consisting of wooden battens or bamboos etc. Braces are
held rigidly in position by cleats on the form and by properly
driven stacks at the ground.

26. Pressure on the FormworkPressure on the Formwork
Maximum pressure of fresh concrete on the formwork is
mainly influenced by the following factors.
1) Rate of pouring of concrete which is generally 4 to 5 ft per
hour.
2) Temperature of concrete. If temperature is lower, the2) Temperature of concrete. If temperature is lower, the
concrete will remain in fluid form for longer time.
3) Workability of concrete. Workable concrete will have more
fluidity and hence will exert more pressure.
4) Thickness of concrete wall. Pressure will be lower in thin
walls because of the arching action in the cross-section.
5) Vibration of concrete.

required.
7. Double system of joists allows the vertical props to be
spaced at reasonable distance in-between to carry full load
but, at the same time, to permit the movement of men and
machinery in-between.
8. Lateral and diagonal bracing of props may be provided for
stability, which prevent side sway.
33. Formwork for ColumnsFormwork for Columns
This type of form-work consists of two end and two side
planks built in one unit or panel.
The height of each panel is built equal to the storey height
less slab thickness and the floor sheeting.
The two end planks are built in width equal to theThe two end planks are built in width equal to the
dimensions of the column plus twice thickness of the
sheeting. The width of the sheeting will be same as the
dimension of the column.
The yokes will project 20 to 25 cm beyond the sheeting at
each end as shown in fig. The spacing of the yokes will be
same on both the sides. Bolt holes are created in the side
yokes, about 3 mm larger than the size of the bolt, for
passing and tightening the bolts easily.

Some of the commonly used types are explained
below:
1- Bill of Quantities Contract.
This type of contract which includes a BOQ (billThis type of contract which includes a BOQ (bill
of quantities) priced by the contractor is the most
commonly used form of contract for civil
engineering works.
This type of contract is also known as “Item
rate contract”. Bill of quantities greatly assists in
keeping the tender cost as low as possible because
there is maximum competition among the
contractors. 40
39. 2- Scheduled Contract
In this type of contract the client refers to a
schedule of unit rates covering each item of work
and ask the contractors, when tendering, to quote a
percentage above or below the given scheduled
rates
when it is above, it is called premium
and when below, it is called rebate or discount)and when below, it is called rebate or discount)
When a contract includes both scheduled and non-
scheduled items then the contractors are asked to
quote an overall premium on the total cost of
scheduled items but, as regards the non-scheduled
items are concerned, the contractor will mention the
item-rates and no extra premium would be
permissible.

This is a contract where labour is provided by the
contractor but all the materials are supplied by the client.
It is suitable for those cases where an employer is in a
position to buy large quantities of materials at favourable
prices.
The advantage is that the speed of work will be increased
but, at the same time, there will be more wastage of
materials.
Labour rates for the scheduled items are also given in the

In the cost plus percentage contract, the accounts are
properly maintained by the contractors showing the actual
expenditure on the work.
This is supported by proper receipts and invoices (bills,
cash memos, etc).
The profit of the contractor is decided as a negotiated
percentage, which may vary from 10 to 25% of the
actual cost of contract.

This is similar to the previous type of contract with the
difference that the amount of profit is fixed and will not vary
with increase or decrease of actual cost of the work. Proper

in this category, the contractor will try to complete the work
as early as possible.
Cost plus percentage and cost plus fixed profit contractors are
together called ‘Reimbursement contracts”.
