Which Civil Discipline Would You Pursue After Bachelors

in engineering mentorship is very important for fresh engineers/final year students to get boost in learning basic techniques and practical knowledge from experienced seniors so is the internship for serious students.i request seniors that please show their willingness for mentorship and accommadte freshers/.final year students with them.that wud be great help for engineering students.please upload your willingness here and your field of experties and your location.thanx

absorbtion test is made to check whether brick will allow the cement to hydrate completly or will absorb the water and leave the cement semi hydarted,i think even if bricks are used infill walls test is necessary otherwise cement will not stick to bricks and plaster it will spall off

For undergrad level I would say Cylinderness Effect. Its actually due to a thing called size effect. Test two cubes with different dimensions, you will have different results.

Reasons for concrete cube to have greater compressive strength as compared to cylinder is contact area of a standard cube mould with the upper platen in the testing machine is more which results in more confinement . more confinement resist against specimen expansion resulting in more compressive strength. The ratio between cube strength and cylinder strength is commonly assumed to be 1.25 , but it is not constant.

For field construction, plazas and commercial buildings all buildings are RCC frames. Use of brick is only for infill walls and for that , strength is not that major issue, so maybe brick testing is still insignificant yet because of its secondary use. Good share though.

What do you think?

tnx

thanx Rana and Umar it is called interactive guidance thanx alot !!!!

i am waqar saleem i have masters degree in mathematics from punjab university taught mathematics for 3years then came across civil engineering has wonderful application of maths also in construction industry for 3years in site management and estimation now in final year(7th semester) of BSc civil engg.in SCET,wah Cant(affliated with UET,Taxila).it is great forum with active helping members thanx to the founder

no one uploaded anything even RANA sab just liked anyhow thanx Rana sab i am student so i didnt upload my experties location and my willingness for accommodating students and freshers for internship and mentorship ,so plz seniors come forward and do not hesitate to give a helping hand

Welcome ABBAS! we hope you will learn a lot here!

Good.. welcome aboard!
