CONCEPT OF TUBULAR DESIGN IN HIGH RISE STRUCTURES

Author(s): GEETHU VARGHESE , J.VIKRAM

Abstract: Multi-storeyed buildings are used for office, complex, residential flats, public centres, etc. There is need for multi-storeyed building due to overcrowding of cities. These multistoreyed buildings can be transformed into tall buildings in order to achieve more floor space but occupy less land space. In the design of tall buildings, lateral loads play predominant role. The lateral loads are wind load and seismic load. There are various lateral load resisting systems such as braced frame system, moment resisting frame system, frame truss-interacting system, shear wall system, core and outrigger system and tubular system. The tubular system comprises various types such as framed tube, trussed tube, tube in tube and bundled tube. In this project, a plan has been created for the bundled tube comprising four tubes using Auto-cad.The various loads such as dead load, live load and wind load are assigned using software. Analysis of the structure has been done using software. The components of

MECHANICAL CHARACTERIZATION OF NORMAL STRENGTH CARBON FIBERS REINFORCED CONCRETE

Author(s): MANISH A. KEWALRAMANI

Abstract: Carbon fiber is a relatively new raw material which is confidently managing performance–cost trade off in construction sector. It is usually combined with other materials to form a composite. Owing to advantageous characteristics like high stiffness, high tensile strength, low weight, high chemical resistance, high temperature tolerance and low thermal expansion utilization of carbon fibers in construction sector is undeniably innovative. Besides, availability of various grades of carbon fibers with varying properties make it possible to be used for specific applications. The present work investigates the potential use of carbon fibers as reinforcement to normal strength concrete by studying important mechanical characteristics like compressive strength, splitting tensile strength, relationship between compressive strength and splitting tensile strength, and chord modulus of elasticity measured from stress-strain curves when high intensity long chain polymers primarily made of polyprop
