Major Ingredients and Raw materials of Ordinary concrete including Optimum wa...Masud Alam Ansari
This document discusses the key ingredients and raw materials used in ordinary concrete, including the optimal water content. The main ingredients are cement, fine aggregate (sand), coarse aggregate (gravel), and water. Fine aggregate fills the spaces between coarse aggregate. Cement acts as the binding agent when mixed with water through hydration. The optimal water-cement ratio is important - too much water reduces strength, while too little reduces workability. Two common methods for calculating raw material quantities are discussed: 1) based on experimental dry-wet ratios and material unit weights; and 2) using yield and cement factor thumb rules.
The document discusses strategies for making buildings more energy efficient and environmentally friendly. It outlines various approaches used in green buildings, including using fly ash bricks and concrete to reduce emissions, installing double-glazed windows, harvesting solar energy, composting food waste, collecting rainwater, and employing drip irrigation. The paper argues that adopting these types of practices in construction and building operations can significantly decrease environmental impacts and lower energy consumption compared to traditional buildings.
Maturity models provide a framework for evolving improvements in processes. They can be used descriptively to assess current processes or prescriptively to determine areas for improvement. Greater process maturity should lead to benefits like reduced costs and risks. Maturity models can be applied to areas like project management, quality management, and risk management. They involve assessing the current level based on phases from initiation to optimization and provide a reference for connecting strategy to processes.
Child labour is prevalent in Nepal, with over 13% of children only working and not attending school. Agriculture, brick kilns, carpets, and domestic work are major industries employing child labour. Poverty and gender inequality are primary drivers, as families rely on children's income and girls are expected to do domestic chores. This deprives children of education and health, and hinders Nepal's long term economic development. Responses include organizations working to strengthen protections, increase inspections, and promote education to reduce child labour.
This document discusses industrial accidents, causes, and preventions. It notes that industrial accidents are unplanned events that result in employee injury for more than 48 hours. Accidents are usually caused by a combination of unsafe conditions like defective equipment, and unsafe acts by employees like carelessness. Preventative measures include use of safety devices, safety training, and signage. The document also discusses industrial health, noting its importance in reducing absenteeism and improving efficiency. Statutory provisions in the Factories Act 1948 aim to maintain worker health and safety conditions.
This document discusses strategies for creating an energy efficient and eco-friendly building. It outlines the use of sustainable building materials like fly ash bricks and concrete, which reduce emissions and energy usage compared to traditional materials. Rainwater harvesting, vermicomposting, solar energy, and drip irrigation are presented as techniques for conserving water and producing renewable energy and fertilizer. The conclusion emphasizes that adopting these strategies can result in significant cost savings over the lifetime of the building, as well as increased comfort, health, and sustainability.
This document provides information about earthquakes and tsunamis. It defines key earthquake terms like focus, epicenter, and magnitude. Earthquakes are caused by the movement of tectonic plates. Different types of seismic waves transmit energy from the earthquake. Mitigation aims to reduce vulnerability, while management coordinates disaster response. The 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake triggered a tsunami that caused widespread damage. A 2015 Nepal earthquake also had devastating impacts due to its shallow depth and location near Kathmandu.
BOD measures the amount of oxygen required by bacteria to decompose organic matter in sewage over 5 days. High BOD indicates more bacteria and organic matter, risking anaerobic conditions. BOD is usually lower than COD since not all organic matter is biodegradable. COD measures oxygen required to chemically oxidize all organic matter and is faster than BOD, making it better for industrial waste. Both tests determine organic pollutant levels, but COD captures a wider range and does not differentiate biodegradable and non-biodegradable matter.
This document discusses key aspects of water supply systems including attributes of water, why water supply is needed, factors that influence design period, population forecasting methods, water demand variations, and per capita demand. It outlines the main components of a water supply system including permanent water resources, uniform distribution, and good treatment and maintenance. Population forecasting methods include arithmetic, geometric, and incremental increase. Water demand depends on per capita demand and total population, and varies seasonally, daily, and hourly. Per capita demand is influenced by climate, habits, industries, distribution system, charging, sanitation, supply quality.
The document outlines the 8 key steps in the concreting process: 1) Collection of ingredients, 2) Batching ingredients by volume or weight, 3) Mixing ingredients homogeneously, 4) Transporting concrete via pans, wheelbarrows, trucks or conveyors, 5) Placing concrete in formworks, 6) Compacting concrete using tamping rods or vibrators, 7) Finishing concrete through screeding or troweling, and 8) Curing concrete through water sprinkling, ponding, steaming or covering to improve durability and reduce shrinkage.
This document introduces electrochemistry and electrochemical cells. It discusses oxidation, reduction, galvanic cells which produce electrical current from spontaneous reactions, and electrolytic cells which consume current for non-spontaneous reactions. It also describes the parts of electrochemical cells including the anode, cathode, salt bridge, and electron flow. Standard cell notation is introduced to represent electrochemical cells using line notation.

TEXTO: JEREMIAS 38:19-20
INTRODUCCION
En el texto que hemos leído vemos el momento de angustia que el rey Sedequias tenía cuando Jerusalén estaba rodeada por el ejército babilonio.
En ese momento de angustia la respuesta del profeta Jeremías fue: oye la voz de Jehová y te ira bien y vivirás.
Quizás este día nos sentimos preocupados por las situaciones que estamos enfrentando o nos sentimos llenos de incertidumbre por aquellos proyectos de nuestra vida que estamos por iniciar, por esas metas que nos hemos propuesto alcanzar este año.
Que nos dice la voz de Dios este dia a cada uno de nosotros: FILIPENSES 4:13 “Todo lo puedo en Cristo que me fortalece”
Tenemos que escuchar la voz de nuestro Dios por sobre cualquier voz en nuestra vida,
I)DEBEMOS ESCUCHAR LA VOZ DE DIOS POR SOBRE LA VOZ DE LA EXPERIENCIA (LUCAS 5:4-6)
La voz de la experiencia es una autoridad, eso es real, pues la experiencia es el conocimiento aprendido por haber realizado algo, por haberlo vivido o sufrido, la experiencia es importante, pero por sobre la autoridad de la experiencia esta la voz de Dios.
La voz de la experiencia decía que si no habían pescado nada toda la noche era inútil tirar la red en la mañana, pero Pedro confi
