Secondary treatment of wastewater removes the dissolved organic matter that escapes primary treatment and eliminates a higher percentage of suspended solids. In this blog, I will walk you through various biological methods used in the secondary treatment of wastewater.
Public health engineering helps people to satisfy their humanitarian needs. Today’s crises occur often in urban areas. They usually last longer and have a wider regional effect. They cause widespread human misery, threaten basic services such as water supply and sanitation.
The consistency of cement mortar is its ability to flow. The consistency test on cement is performed to determine the water necessary for attaining standard consistency or normal consistency.
Highway engineering is an important topic in civil engineering. It includes the study of roads in depth. The technical aspects involved in this subject plays a significant role in construction of different types of roads. In this blog, I will show you all the details of the subject including the definition, topics, importance etc.
Rebound hammer test is one of the most popular and simple non-destructive concrete tests. The Non-destructive test is the process of detection of defects in concrete without its destruction. The determination of concrete quality is necessary for both fresh concrete and hardened concrete. The rebound hammer test is the common test for determining quality for existing structures.
Non-destructive test (NDT) and destructive tests (DT) are the the tests done one hardened concrete. Concrete is the oldest and most important construction material in the world. Testing of the concrete plays and important role to know about the strength, durability and condition of the structure. This article is about the types of Destructive and non destructive tests done on concrete.
Sustainable Cities are gaining popularity these days due to rapid urbanisation, population growth and pollution. Sustainable cities are those that are dedicated to achieve environmental, social and economic sustainability for existing populations.
Concrete pumps are devices that convey concrete from a concrete source to a casting location. In this blog, I will show you the basic theory, forms, and selection of concrete pumps.
Types of dams play a crucial role in water storage, flood control, irrigation, power generation, and environmental protection. Engineers use different classification of dams based on several criteria to select the best structure for a specific project site. One common approach is to classify dams by the types of dams based on material, such as earth dams, rockfill dams, masonry dams, and concrete dams. Another important method includes types of dams based on function, like storage dams, diversion dams, and detention dams. Additionally, dams are grouped by hydraulic behavior, which refers to types of dams based on hydraulic design, such as overflow and non-overflow dams. Understanding these categories helps engineers make the right design decisions depending on topography, geology, hydrology, and project needs. This article explains all major different types of dams used in construction with clear examples and applications.
Ready mix plaster is a blend of cement and fine graded sand mixed with polymer additives in right proportions and available in a ready to use form. They are applied by simply mixing water in right proportions.
