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...

  Bulking of Fine Aggregate- Apparatus Required :- (1.) Container (2.) Steel rule (3.) Steel rod of 6mm diameter (4.) Measuring cylinder of 250 ml capacity (5.) Sand sample under test (6.) Observation sheet for record the reading Recent Blog: Specific Gravity of Soil by Pycnometer Method Procedure:- (1.) To start the test, take the measuring cylinder and fill with sand up to 200 ml. graduation mark. (2.) Now, level with steel rule without shaking the cylinder. (3.) Transfer the sample of sand to another container. (4.) Refill the measuring cylinder with water (up to 100 ml.) (5.) Now, pour the sample of sand in measuring cylinder fill with water and stir it well with 6 mm diameter steel rod. So, that it is thoroughly mix with water.  Also Read: Field Dry Density of Soil by Sand Replacement Method (6.) Allow it for settle sometimes. You will be noted that the sand surface is now below its original level (i.e. less than 200 ml.) (7.) Bulking of sand=200-Y /Y*100     ...

Image
   Specific Gravity of soil By Pycnometer Method      Image Credit:indiamart.com Test Procedure-  (1.) Make sure that the reading on the balance is initially zero after kept a paper. (2.) Weight 200 gm of soil sample. (3.) Now, weight pycnometer (with top) and take the 1st reading (W1). W1=571 gm (4.) Then fill the pycnometer with soil, weight it and take the 2nd reading (W2). W2=774 gm (5.) Now, add water to the soil, till completely  fill the jar. (6.) Then weight the pycnometer (Water +Soil) and take the 3rd reading (W3). Kept the top on jar. W3=1628 gm (7.) Then waste the mixture and refill the pycnometer with water only. (8.) Weight the water with pycnometer and their top and take the 4th reading (W4). W4=1530 gm (9.) Put all these values in this formula.             W2-W1/(W4-W1)-(W3-W2) Where, W1=Empty weight of pycnometer W2=Weight of pycnometer +Soil W3= Weight of pycnometer +Soil +Water W4=Weight of pycnometer +...

"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...
