Design and Analysis of G+5 Hospital Building using Prefabricated Construction Technique
Abstract: The construction in India is developing at a fast rate of growth. For fast growing population, it is essential to construct more hospital building with lesser cost and lesser time. Reduction in cost of structure can be made by several ways and one such way is to use prefabrication construction techniques. To reduce the overall cost and to reduce the construction time of buildings, prefabricated construction techniques are adopted. In …

Smog Eating Structure
Abstract: Air quality has deteriaoted significantly over the past two decades, today pollution is one of the largest risk factors contributing to the disease’s burden, Air pollution affects individual health of citizens, increases mortality and morbidity rates and contributes in climate changes. So, in this paper we have used titanium-dioxide-infused concrete, which can remove smog from air when exposed to sunlight and ultraviolet lights. This technology is based on particles of …

Utilization of Advance Geopolymer in Concrete: A Review
Abstract: Climate change has several adverse impacts like changes in weather, untimely rains, depleting water, droughts, flash floods, acute and early summer and chilling winter. Equally, another bigger challenge to the society is foul smell whether it is river, pond, drain, public toilets or garbage dump yards. It is due to emission of hydrogen sulphide, methane and other toxic gases. Methane in pure form does not create any foul smell, however …

Life Cycle Cost Analysis and Designing
Abstract: Within creasing population in rapidly developing smart cities, sewage treatment has become necessary for treating sewage before disposing git off in water body as it can cause harm to human and aquatic life. Different sewage treatment methods are being used and a comparative study is done of Up-flow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket (UASB) process, Activated Sludge Process (ASP), Sequence Batching Reactor (SBR), Membrane Bioreactor (MBR). Life Cycle Cost Analysis (LCCA) is …

The Financial Implication of Weather Condition as a Determinant of On-Site Productivity and Contract Duration
Abstract: The effects of weather conditions on construction projects is an identifiable one as inclement weather can cause a lot of upset in works being executed, particularly in substructure and the wet trades such as concrete works. A cold dry weather harsh weather as in the case of the harmattan period causes drying out before concrete sets. Wet weather such as those experienced during the rainy seasons, which in the Niger …
