Abstract The paper examines the possibility of using copper slag as partial replacement of sand and Nano Silica as partial replacement of cement and super plasticizer and Viscosity Modifying Agent are used in self compacting concrete, in order to overcome problems associated with cast-in-place concrete. Self compacting concrete does not require skilled labours. The percentage of copper slag to be added is 10 %, 20 %, 30 % of total weight of sand. The percentage of Nano Silica to be added is 2 %, 4 %, 6 %, and 8 % of total weight of cement. According to ACI: 211.4 R code of practice, control specimen is casted for M40. Finally the workability and strength characteristics of concrete have been compared with conventional concrete.
Keywords: copper slag, nano silica, self-compacting concrete

Consequence Analysis, Vulnerability Mapping and Fuzzy Fault Tree Analysis for a Better Disaster Management in and Around Chemical Industrial Areas V.R. Renjith*, G. Madhu Division of Safety and Fire Engineering, School of Engineering, Cochin University of Science and Technology, India
Abstract Chemical industries are prone to hazards like fire, explosion and toxic gas releases. Qualitative and quantitative hazard analyses are essential for the identification and quantification of the hazards associated with chemical industries. This study presents the results of a consequence analysis carried out to assess the damage potential of the hazardous material storages in an industrial area of central Kerala, India. These results are used for the estimation of individual risk and societal risk in the above industrial area. Vulnerability assessment is carried out using probit functions for toxic, thermal and pressure loads. Results of fuzzy Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) and Two dimensional fuzzy FTA (TDFFTA) are also discussed.
Keywords: Consequence analysis, Vulnerability assessment, Individual Risk, Societal Risk, Fuzzy FTA

Heavy Metal Analysis in Soil: A Case Study through the Noyyal River, Tirupur Aswathy V Gopal*, Arun O S, R. Gobinath, D. Saranydevi Department of Civil engineering, Jay Shriram Group of Institutions, Avinashipalayam, Tirupur, Tamilnadu, India Abstract Noyyal River is a tributary of Cauvery River which rises from Vellingiri hills in Western Ghats, Tamilnadu South eastern India and drains in to Cauvery River. The river flows through four states, Coimbatore, Tirupur, Karur and Erode in western Tamilnadu. Till the river reaches Tirupur, the pollution concentration is considerably low. But in the Tirupur area the rate becomes substantially high due to the textile effluent discharge and sustains downstream up to Orathupalayam dam. High chloride, BOD, conductivity, iron, and chromium is present in the river water. The high conductivity of Noyyal river water indicates the main parameter which makes the water unfit for irrigation. Due to the self curing of the river, the heavy metals will get accumulated in the surface of the soil under the river water. And it becomes immobile. The soil contains very high amount of iron and chromium, which clearly indicates the presence of dye waste water pollution.

Interference Effect between Prismatic Buildings Subjected to Microburst Wind Kalyan Kumar Das*, Kalyan Prasad Sinhamahapatra, Amit Kumar Ghosh Assam Engineering College, Guwahati, India Department of Aerospace Engineering, IIT Kharagpur, India
Abstract Severe thunderstorms are important weather phenomena which impact on various facets of national activity like civil and defense operation, particularly aviation, space vehicle launching and agriculture in addition to its damage potential to life and properties. One of the most important events in the thunderstorms is the “Downburst”. Downbursts occur when a column of descending air reaches the ground and bursts out violently. This downward motion abruptly changes direction and produces a peak wind speed close to the ground. A synoptic, or atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) wind however does not reach its maximum wind speed until much higher above the earth's surface. It is believed that downburst is generated when the moist buoyant air moving upward can no longer be sustained above and subsides into downdraft. Downbursts can be wet (accompanying rain) or dry and are further classified as either microburst or macroburst depending on their horizontal extent of damage. In India severe thunderstorms over the Gangetic West Bengal and Assam, known as “Kalbaishakhi” and “Bordoisila” respectively are very much destructive. In this work an attempt has been made to simulate the dry downburst wind numerically using the impinging jet model of the downburst. A CFD code is developed for the numerical simulation based on the vorticity-vector potential approach using a Large Eddy Simulation (LES) technique for the turbulence. The primary objectives of the present work are to investigate the flow dynamics of the downburst wind and its effect on prismatic buildings. The numerical results generated for the downburst wind profile are compared with the experimental results obtained from the physical microburst simulator developed by the authors with a 500 mm diameter jet and also with the available full scale data. Very good agreement is observed.
Keywords: prismatic buildings, wind speed, downburst, thunderstorms
