ABSTRACT The work has gone a long way in determining strength of concrete made of various aggregates such as granites stone, black gravel, washed gravel and surface gravel. Some factors such as porosity of the aggregate temperature coursing lose of water plate form for mixing of concrete mix affect the workability and eventually the strength of concrete. This project work consist of using hydraulic machine to carryout the compressive test of the strength of concrete made of the earlier ment...
INTRODUCTION Retaining walls are structures used in providing stability for earth or materials where conditions dis allow the materials from summing its nature al slope or stabilityThere are many factors affecting or militating against the stability of retaining walls. These includes the level of water table behind the wall, size of the base of the wall and nature of the soil retainedUnder these effects of he nature of soil,. we have the angle of internal content between the particles, the ...
INTRODUCTION This work was obligated to present in one. The fundamental and practical information in the filed of the comparative analysis of the strength of concrete made from various aggregate which may be useful to people involve in civil and structural engineering and particularly, those that found pleasure in the design and related structure. Due to high cost of sand in the market the comparative analysis of strength of concrete made from various aggregate play an important role in c...
