 Abstract

Concrete is the most widely used construction material worldwide, however the production of Portland cement, an essential constituent of concrete, releases large amount of CO 2 in to the atmosphere (Since CO 2 is a major contributor to the green house effect and the global warming of the planet). In this scenario, the use of supplementary cementing materials, such as coal ash, slag and silica fume as a Replacement for Portland cement in concrete presents one viable solution with multiple benefits for the sustainable development of the concrete industry. The most commonly available supplementary cementing material worldwide is coal ash, a by-product from the combustion of pulverized coal in thermal power plants. Coal ash consists of two parts, fly ash and bottom ash. Fly ash is a finely divided, amorphous aluminum silicate that reacts at normal temperature with calcium hydroxide to produce calcium silicate hydrate (C-S-H) with compendious properties i.e. it is pozzolanic material. Bottom ash is a coarser material, witch falls into the furnace bottom in large thermal power plants and constitute about 20% of the total ash content.

 Abstract

Concrete is a major civil engineering construction material, because the ingredients of concrete are locally available materials. Generally, the cement is used as major binding material. The usage of cement in concrete causes lot of environmental pollution due to emission of greenhouse gases so that, it is necessary to reduce usage of cement by introducing new supplementary cementitious materials which are the by-products of industries to reduce debris. Rice husk ash (RHA) is an agricultural based pozzolanic material, generated by rice mills in huge quantities. This paper summarizes the experimental work on concrete in which Plain Portland cement (PPC) cement were replaced by Rice husk ash (RHA). Concrete specimens were prepared with 2.5%, 5%, 7.5%, and 10% 12.5% and 15% % RHA as a replacement of cement by weight, the most important mechanical property of concrete is compressive strength and it is evaluated on 150 mm sized cubes. The compressive strength is obtained for 7 and 28 days strength and results are analysed.

 Abstract

This paper will present various passive cooling strategies suitable for hot and dry regions. Buildings as they are constructed presently use a huge energy resource and other nonrenewable natural resources, with devastating negative environmental effects. It can be seen that 29% of the overall energy is used by the building out of which 20% by residents and 9% by commercial. A hypothetical model will be developed with climate consideration of Solapur city and the implication of passive cooling strategies at the site, building, and component levels. The purpose of this research is to see how effective it is to implement chosen climate-responsive technologies to increase energy efficiency and minimize power utilization in individual dwellings in hot and dry climates. The key results of this research have been described and suggested solution from the studies based on the limits of this research has been presented. Hypothetical studies have suggested that using all of the mentioned strategies in buildings can reduce mechanical cooling demand by up to 50% - 70%.

 Abstract

In the recent days global business plays a vital role. It takes place between two or more regions, countries and nations beyond their political boundary. This helps a lot for the government to carry on its work successfully. This will enhance free flow of labor, capital, and there will be increase in profit for the organization. It also enhances the flow of technology from one country to another country; this will help in further production of a country and also to plan its resources accordingly to cater to the needs of its customers. It all vests with the managers of international business to carry out the business very smoothly as it leads to trade agreements among various countries, and to maintain high ethical standards and to develop compliance protocols for import and export operations. This global business is a remedial measure or a tool which removes a barrier between national borders in order to facilitate the flow of goods, capital etc. Globalization is a new phenomenon. It began towards the end of nineteenth century, but it slowed down during the period from the start of the First World War until the third quarter of the twentieth century. This slowdown can be attributed to the inward-looking policies pursued by a number of countries in order to protect their respective industries... however, the pace of globalization picked up rapidly during the fourth quarter of the twentieth century. Survival in the new global business market calls for improved productivity and increased competition. Due to the market becoming worldwide, companies in various industries have to upgrade their products and use technology skillfully in order to face increased competition. This paper stresses about the global business and its recent trends, challenges of global business and ways to overcome challenges and threats to global business etc.
