Bridges can range from modest constructions to massive, eye-catching pieces of art – and everything in between. A bridge serves its sole purpose as long as it transports us across a gap. Types of bridges is an important classification in civil engineering. In today’s blog, we are going to learn different types of bridges in detail.
Globally, 44% of sewage is not safely treated, according to UN-Water 2021. Releasing untreated sewage into water bodies pose a great threat to humans as well as the environment. But, how do we understand the quality of sewage and the number of pollutants in it? This blog let me walk you through the basics of sewage, its sources, types, and quality indicators.
Air pollution is one of our era’s biggest scourges, not only because of the impact it causes on climate change but also because it influences public and individual health due to chronic illness and death. The effects of air pollution range from environmental effects like global warming to even financial and health effects like coma and death.
Air pollution killed approximately 1.7 million Indians in 2019, according to a report by the interdisciplinary journal Lancet Planetary Health. The causes of air pollution can be natural or man-made. Breathing fresh and pure air has become nearly impossible due to the increased quantity of contaminants in the air.
Lightweight aggregate is a coarse aggregate used to make lightweight concrete for structural as well as non-structural applications.
Chain surveying is a form of surveying that only takes linear measurements in the field. This is appropriate for surveying small areas with clear details and a relatively flat area. It gets its name from the fact that the chain is the most widely used piece of equipment.
E-waste or electronic waste is generated when an electronic product reaches the end of its useful life, The rapid advancement of technology, combined with our consumer-driven culture, has resulted in a massive amount of e-waste. Electronic waste refers to devices that have been discarded electrically or electronically.
Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) is an indispensable part of any proposed project be it governmental or non-governmental. Environmental Impact Assessment is the method of assessing the possible environmental consequences of a proposed project or development
Stones are the form of rocks from the earth’s crust. They find their application in the construction of residential and public buildings, dams, harbours, face-work of structures, road metal, and railway ballast. Besides stones possess good strength and durability.
Earthquake Engineering though not a mainstream engineering branch, is a widely researched topic now. Though all of us wouldn’t have experienced an earthquake most of us must have seen news and videos about the tremendous loss it causes. Looks scary, right? That’s exactly what makes Earthquake Engineering a subject of immense possibilities and research.
