Important Points SOP (Standard Operating Procedure) During the Inspection of RCC NP4 Pipes: -    Image-Hydro Test (Photo Credit: Ritesh Raj) (1.) Firstly, approved QAP will be checked.  (2.) ID marks should be marked on the inner and outer sides of pipes.  Image-ID Mark (Photo Credit: Ritesh Raj)  (3.) To check the inner and outer diameter of pipes.   (4.) Smooth finishing and before dispatch of RCC pipes cement slurry or grouting where required.   (5.) Load test is required for RCC pipes as per IS codes. It is different for each dia, of RCC pipes.  Image-Plate Load Test (Photo Credit: Ritesh Raj)   (6.) Concrete mix design checked and in which cement content, cement brand, and water-cement ratio should be checked.  (7.) The straightness test to be checked of RCC pipes through the straightness rods to collinear visible.   (8.) As per requirement 2% of hydro tests are to be checked as IS:458 of the total...

Initial Setting Time of Cement

-
Image
  Image Source:-civilread.com It is the time when water is added to cement and the time at which needle of 1mm 2 section fails to penetrate the depth block to a depth of 5 to 7 mm from the bottom of mould. Important Terms:- (i) Take 0.85P of water. (Where, P is normal consistency) (ii) 1mm 2  needle is used. (iii) Penetration should be 5 to 7 mm from bottom. (iv) Mixing, placing and testing should be done between 3 to 5 mm. Recent Post:- Aggregate Impact Value Test Test Procedure:- Image Source:civilblog.org (i) 400 gm of cement sample is taken. (ii) 0.85 P=(0.85 P X 26/100) X 400                 = 88.4 CC (CC-Cubic Centimeter)                                   (1 cc=1 ml) Image Source:aust.edu Also Read: Consistency Cement of Test (iii) 88.4 ml water is mixed and filled in the mould. (iv) 1mm 2  diameter of plunger is fixed and at bottom of vicat ...

Consistency Test of Cement

-
Image
Normal Consistency- It is defined as the percentage of water by weight of cement which produces a consistency which permits a plunger of 10 mm diameter to percentage up to a depth of 5 mm to 7 mm above the bottom of vicat's mould. Image Source:-www.civilread.com Recent Post:- Aggregate Impact Value Test Important Terms:- (i) Diameter of Plunger=10 mm (ii) Firstly, 25% weight of water is used which will mix with cement. Then used 26%, 27% and more. Image Source:-civilblog.org (iii) Repeat this procedure till reading not comes 5 mm to 7 mm. (iv) Entire mixing and filling of the mould including testing should be completed within 3 to 5 minutes. Test Procedure:- Image Source:-aust.edu Also Read: Elongation Test of an Aggregate (i) Take 400 gm of cement sample. (ii) 25% water i.e. 400X25/100=100 gm of water is added and mix properly. (iii) After mixing it is kept in mould and also kept on the vicat apparatus surface. (iv) 10 mm diameter needle will just touch on the surface of the mou...

"Sewer Network Analysis"

-
Image
The word sewerage is made from sewer. The word sewer indicates the usable water which is received from kitchen, bathroom and outfall from toilet/W.C. Every large or small city was held at sea, river and lake and it was planned at initial stage of the project planning, that the dirty water of homes and industries was dumped in that water source easily. Many years passed the dirty water from these utilities are dumped in the nearest source and that source water was make too poisons. Many aquatic life is survive in water and when dirty water is mixed with water source the biological cycle was affected and fishes and other animals population was decreases. Image Source:Pexels.com In that case population of human is also increases continuously and after that level of water source was decreases and we faced many problems continuously. Then sewer network is introduced. Outlet from all homes are connected to lateral lines means the water of kitchen, bathroom and water closet are co...

When the energy received by earth from the sun is known as “solar energy”. Solar energy is comes under renewable energy. Solar radiation is the utilized by the solar plates for further use. The working procedure of solar system is capture, convert and then distribution. Image Source:Pexels.com Solar system is categorized in two parts:- (1.)   Passive Solar: -   In this system the selected material have light dispersion properties and designing spaces that the circulate air naturally. This system reduces the need for alternative resourcs and generally focuses on demand side technologies. (2.)   Active Solar:- This system is based on photovoltaic modules (i.e. also known as photovoltaic panels) and collectors of solar thermal system to convert sun light into their useful output. Its increases the supply of energy. Image Source:Pexels.com Recent Post: Different energy sources Working Procedure:- In this system with the u...
