Abstract-The construction industry often acts as a catalyst to stimulate the growth of a nation's economy. The industry is often referred to as an engine of growth. However, numerous government reports have criticized the industry's poor performance, especially in terms of productivity, quality and quality systems. In order to improve performance, many construction companies implement integrated system to ensure consistency and better performance of construction projects.

The data collection for study investigates factors affecting contractor performance in high rise building projects was done through a Selected Factors and Sub factors related Questionnaire survey by explorative questionnaire to the respondents involved in daily activities of construction firms in various High rise Projects and different Consultants, Architect and contractors in Nashik City.

Abstract— The demand of concrete is increasing day by day for satisfying the need of development of infrastructure facilities. It is well established fact that the production of OPC not only consumes significant amount of natural resources and energy but also releases substantial quantity of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere. Therefore, it is essential to find alternatives to make the concrete environment friendly.

Pozzolanas are siliceous or siliceous and aluminous material which in them possess little or no cementitious value but will chemically react, in finely divided form and in the presence of moisture, with calcium hydroxide at ordinary temperatures to form compounds possessing the cementitious properties. From the research result of laboratories on pozzocrete, it has been well established that use of pozzocrete in concrete considerably improves the strength of concrete.

Abstract-Maintaining power system security is one of the challenging tasks for the power system engineers. The security assessment is an essential task as it gives the knowledge about the system state in the event of a contingency. Contingency analysis technique is being widely used to predict the effect of outages like failures of equipment, transmission line etc, and to take necessary actions to keep the power system secure and reliable.

The off line analysis to predict the effect of individual contingency is a tedious task as a power system contains large number of components. Practically, only selected contingencies will lead to severe conditions in power system. The process of identifying these severe contingencies is referred as contingency selection and this can be done by calculating performance indices for each contingencies.

Abstract— Seismic event is most uncertain with respect to its occurrence, effect on structure and therefore it is always challenging to design engineers to provide safety in the design. Probabilistic approach is the recent trend adopted by the designers from developing countries which accounts various uncertainties involved in the process of seismic evaluation. This approach is an alternative to design practices which not only provides the life safety.

achieve the desired performance objectives. The present study is focused on this approach for seismic performance evaluation of existing reinforced concrete building situated in India. Seismic performance evaluation of existing RC building and retrofitting strategies has been assessed using this methodology. For the demonstration,an old reinforced concrete building situated in Indian seismic zone IV has been considered.

Abstract-A ground-coupled heat exchanger is an underground heat exchanger that can capture heat from or dissipate heat to the ground is known as the earthen tube. Thus, the earthen tube has prospect use in space cooling application and also the short-term preservation of vegetables and fruits soon after harvest. The earthen tube is often viable and economical alternative or supplement to conventional central heating or air conditioning systems.

since there are no compressors, chemical or burners, and only blowers are required to move the air. In this water is linked to the cooler at the top, thus keeping the chamber cooled. The result of the transient performance of the cooler reveals a decrease in temperature in the building or storage chamber. The different types of evaporative cooler designs under review include: earthen tube, cabinet, static, and charcoal cooling.

Abstract— In foundry, sand casting is the most commonly used process amongst all the available alternatives. Casting soundness in sand casting includes weight of the casting, free from cavities- pinholes or gross and other defects, physical and mechanical properties like strength and hardness etc. which could be varying within limits. The extent of conformance to specification and customer satisfaction are generally considered as basis for quality.

In most of the foundries development of new castings is done with empirical methods with probably large number of trials and consequent cost of poor quality, rejections, delays etc. This excessive rejection may have considerable adverse effect on productivity, delivery performance, customer satisfaction and employee morale. In addition, it may also reduce yield, waste valuable raw material and energy, and consume management.

Abstract-The NGO Bhagirath Gramvikas Pratishthan is in Zarap, a village situated at at 10 Km distance from Kudal in Sindhudurh district on Mumbai Goa highway. A survey was carried out in 44 households from eight different villages Zarap, Nivaje, Bimbavane, Naneli (kadamvadi), Narur, Humras and Vetal bambarde during 22nd may, 2017 to 7th June, 2017.

The aim of survey was to know the reason behind low failure rate of biogas in Kudal. In these 44 houses biogas plants were installed already. Out of 44 plants 42 plants were installed by Bhagirath. Rest of two the biogas plants were in Janata model made up of bricks. Out of these 44 plants 41 plants are functional. Out of three plants which were not functional one was installed in 2000.

Abstract— Identification of Gender using fingerprint applying neural network is proposed here. Finding the owner of finger print in criminal scene is advantageous. Theoretically, if the quantity of the male and female fingerprints in a database is equivalent, then the identification of a fingerprint on that database would be two times faster. Most of the method is based on ridge density.
