Innovations in Civil Engineering

Modern techniques in civil engineering presented on Engineer's Day

1. EnGineer’s day Memory of Dr . M VISVESVARAYA

2. INNOVATION THAT CAN CHANGE THE LIFE THROUGH CIVIL ENGINEERING … BY:- HIMANSHU CHAKRAVARTI

3. CONTENT. INTRODUCTION TO DR. MOKSHAGUNDAM VISVESVRAYA. WHAT IS CIVIL ENGINERING. ? EXTRAORDINARY INNOVATION BY CIVIL ENGINEER’S. COMPARISION IN PRESENT & PAST THROUGH INNOVATION. AMAZING INNOVATION IN TODAY’S LIFE BY CIVIL ENGINEER’S. CONCLUSION.

4. DR. MOKSHAGUNDAM VISVESVARAYA . BORN IN THE POOR FAMILY IN MYSORE STATE KARNATAKA ON 15 SEPT. 1850. GRADUATED FROM THE PUNE COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING. CONTRIBUTION IN INFRASTRUCTURES LIKE DAMS,& BRIDGES. IN VARIOUS INDUSTRIES SECTOR INCLUDING IRON & STEEL. INTERGITY FROM 1912-1918 MAHARAJA OF MYSORE, APPOINTED AS DEVAN. AWARDED BHARAT RATANA IN 1955 . GOVT. OF INDIA BROUGHT THE STAMP IN HIS HONOUR . PASSED AWAY AT THE AGE OF 101 IN APRIL 1962.

5. WHAT IS CIVIL ENGINEERING.? ACCORDING TO ME CIVIL ENGG. MEANS “CONTRUCTION IS VERY IMP. TO LIFE” . CIVIL ENGG. IS ABOUT CREATE, DESIGN , INNOVATE, DESIRE ETC. FATHER OF CIVIL IS JOHN SMEATAN AS EVERY ONE SAYS “WE MAKE THE WORLD”.

6. FEW EXAMPLES FROM CIVIL ENGG. BURJ KHALIFA . BURJ AL ARAB.

7. THE PALM ISLAND .

8. EXTRAORDINARY INNOVATION BY CIVILIANS. WE HAVE GIVEN ONE OF THE BASIC NEED FOR A HUMAN BEING TO SURVIVE I.E SHELTER.

9. SHELTER. GHAR , CHAAT , MAKKAN ETC. ETC. ARE THE WORDS TO DEFINE SHELTER . AS THE ROTI , KAPDA IS NECCESARY FOR SURVIVING , SAME PLACE IS FOR THE MAKKAN . CIVIL ENGINEERS NOT ONLY GIVE LIFE TO LIVE BUT ALSO PROVIDED A BASIC NEED OF LIFE TO SURVIVE. IT TOTALLY CHANGE IN THE STYLE OF LIVING . A SHELTER IS MUST FOR SURVIVAL.

10. COMPARISION BETWEEN PRESENT AND PAST THROUGH INNOVATION. A EARLY TECHNIQUE . PRESENT TECHNIQUE .

11. A EARLY STRUCTURE . A MODERN STRUCTURE

12. AMAZING INNOVATION BY CIVIL ENGINER’S. U-BOOT TECHNOLOGY . PREFABRICATION . SELF HEALING CONCRETE.

13. U-BOOT TECHNOLOGY . BOOT IS A MODULAR ELEMENT MADE OF RE-CYCLED PLASTIC FOR USE IN BUILDING LIGHTER STRUCTURE IN REINFORCED CONCRETE CAST AT THE WORK SITE . THE U-BOOT GIVES THE INNOVATIVE IDEA FOR LAYING OF SLABS WITH MUSHROOM PILLARS WITH THE SPECIAL CHARACTERISTICS OF THE MUSHROOM BEING PART OF THE SLAB . THE NEW LIGHTER STRUCTURE IS ACHIEVED . THE SLAB IS SEPRATED BY THE PASTIC U-BOOT TECHNOLOGY WITHIN CAST CONCRETE .

14. FEW EXAMPLES FROM U-BOOT.

15. APPLICATION OF U-BOOT TECHNOLOGY . NEW BUILDINGS . RENOVATIONS . INDUSTRIAL FLOORING . RAFTS . INFRASTRUCTURE .

16. ADVANTAGES OF U-BOOT STRUCTURE. BI-DIRECTIONAL DISTRIBUTION OF LOAD. REDUCED WEIGHT ON THE LOAD BEARING WALLS AND FOUNDATION . SAVING IN CONCRETE AND STEEL REINFORCEMENT . REDUCED BUILDING TIME . LIGHTHER, HIGHER INERTIA . WIDER SPAN AND LOWER THICKNESS COMPARED TO PREFAB SLAB . SOUND PROOF APPROX. FIRE RESISTANCE .

17. PREFABRICATION. IT IS PRACTICE OF ASSEMBLING COMPONENTS OF STRUCTURE ON THE CONTRUCTION SITE. IT IS THE EASY METHOD TO ASSEMBLE THE STRUCTURE , WIDELY USE IN FOREIGN COUNTRIES. VILLA UNDINE IN BINZ , BUILT IN YEAR 1885 BY WOLGASTER HOLZBAU.

18. FEW EXAMPLES FROM PREFABRICATION

19. EXAMPLES CONT.

20. ADVANTAGES OF PREFABRICATION . CRANES , JUGS ETC CAN MAKE PRODUCTION EASY AND FASTER. VERY HIGHLY PRECISE WORK. LESS PRODUCTION COST DUE TO PREFABRICATION ON THE FACTORY ONLY . LESS WORK LABOUR REQUIRED.

21. SELF HEALING CONCRETE .

22. SELF HEALING OR BACTERIAL CONCRETE. SPECIAL TYPE OF CONCRETE INVENTED BY MICROBIOLOGY RESEARCHERS UNDER THE HEAD OF HENK JONKERS. SPECIALLY MADE TO INCREASE LIFE SPAN OR THE DURABILITY OF CONCRETE STRUCTURE BY THE SELF HEALING ACTION OF THAT CONCRETE. ALSO CALLED BIO. OR BATERIAL OR SELF HEALING CONCRETE. FEW OF THE BACTERIAS ARE USED SUCH AS COHNII , FILLA , PASTEURII .

23. WORKING PROCESS OF BIO. CONCRETE CRACKS IF LESS THAN .2MM THAN CAN BE AUTO FILL BY CONCRETE. BUT IN IF IT IS EXCEED THEN IN BIO CONCRETE AS THE WATER COME INTO THE CONTACT OF CONCRETE THE BACTERIA GET ACTIVATED & IT AUTOMATICALLY HEAL THE CONCRETE . LIFE SPAN OF THESE BACTERIAS ARE OVER 200 YRS. IT CAN BE DIRECTLY OR INCAPSULATION.

24. FEW RESULTS IN BIO CONCRETE .

25. CONCLUSION. YES FROM ABOVE PRESENTATION WE CAN SAY THAT THE CIVIL ENGINEERING IS “THE MOTHER OF ALL BRANCHES” NOT ONLY IN THE FIELD OF INNOVATION BUT ALSO IN FIELD OF CHANGES … “NOTHING IS PERMANENT IN THIS WORLD EXCEPT THE CHANGE ,SO TRY TO CREATE A CHANGE.”
