The aim of this study was to determine the compressive properties of silicon carbide (SiC) and zircon sand (ZrSiO4) particulate reinforced with ADC-12 alloy, ADC-12 alloy composite. In this experimental study, SiC and ZrSiO4 particulates reinforced with ADC-12 alloy composite were manufactured by stir casting methods. Compressive properties of these composite materials were ...
In Nigeria, the reliance on sanitary landfills is a common phenomenon in the disposal of waste materials. Lack of capital and appropriate technology for environmentally friendly waste management practices has left most places like Osogbo city in Nigeria to rely of landfills for solid waste disposal. And in most cases the landfills are not properly engineered ...
This paper investigates the effect of fly ash (generated from thermal power plant, Panki, Kanpur) on geotechnical properties of local soil, Bhauti Kanpur (U.P), INDIA. The fly ash used in the experimental work was of Class âFâ and soil was clayey in nature .Fly ash collected from the hopper attached to an electrostatic precipitator when coal was changed at...
Laterite samples from Ede area with particle components of 19.7% clay, 32.8% silt and 47.5% sand was stabilized with combined cement, lime and bitumen and test for Compressive strength, Linear Shrinkage, Permeability and Water Absorption. The stabilizers were mixed with laterite soil in different ratios and percentage. The laterite carried 90% which is constant while the...
Many project management approaches have emerged to improve performance in the construction industry. Lean construction is one of the ways to design systems to minimize wastage of materials, time and effort in order t o generate maximum possible amount of value. Lean Six Sigma is the combination of two well-known techniques Lean and Six sigma which focuses on...
