This is a study to investigate the stress distribution in optimized concrete shell structures and presenting them as a viable and economical structural option. The group began the study by building their understanding of ...

Safety of a structure is the first and foremost priority of a structural engineer. That can be achieved only when the different properties and behavior of the various materials used for construction are known. Initially ...

The fundamental step is to design MRE based devices for the adaptation of vibration over range of frequency, which is also known as the characterization of magnetorheological elastomers. The properties of shear mode for ...

For several years, alignment charts and moment amplification factors were the basis for design of columns and beams subjected to combined loadings. However, in recent years, research has been devoted to developing a ...

In construction economics, the two ways to construct an economical structure include increasing number of storeys or increasing the footprint area of the building. Multistory buildings increase the cost of foundation while ...

Reinforced Concrete is widely used material in buildings, bridges and dams due to its speed of construction, flexibility, sustainability and easiness to cast. It is the first choice of civil engineers worldwide. But there ...

Bricks have been in use in construction for thousands of years. They offer a great deal in terms of compressive strength, sound insulation and fire resistance. The material required is not only readily available but cheap ...

In modern world, the importance of civil engineering structures cannot be denied. With increasing population, the demand of different types of structures is on peak. No doubt, this demand is being fulfilled by using modern ...
