CHAPTER 1. 1.INTRODUCTION OF PLASTICS IN AUTOMOBILE Although the rate of usage of plastics in motor cars and commercial vehicles is increasing year by year‚ the actual percentage of plastics found in an average car is between 15-20%. However it is realized by both automobile and the plastic industry that this is just the beginning and the amount of plastics used in vehicles will treble in the next five years‚ at the expense of steel and its alloys. In essence the reason for the spectacular

CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 PANTO ENTANGLEMENT Electric locomotive gets power from overhead contact wire through pantograph. For smooth operation of locomotive‚ the movement of pantograph should be unobstructed on the contact wire. When any broken part of pantograph comes in between overhead wires or vice versa‚ panto entanglement takes place. The OHE is meant for supply of power where as the pantograph is for collecting power for the locomotive. The parameters of

The Centennial Bridge was constructed to eliminate this bottleneck and reduce traffic congestion on the Bridge of the Americas. The bridge is a cantilever design where the suspended span is a tied arch. The bridge has a total length of 1‚654 m (5‚425 ft) in 14 spans‚ abutment to abutment. The main span measures 344 m (1‚128 ft) and the tied arch (the center part of the main span) is 259 m (850 ft)

Combined footings are used when two columns are so close that single footings cannot be used or when one column is located at or near a property. 2. Cantilever or strap footings-consist of two single footings connected with a beam or a strap and support two single columns. This type replaces a combined footing and is more economical. 3. Continuous footings - support a row of three or more columns.

INTRODUCTION 1.1 THE DESIGN PROCESS: The entire process of structural planning and design requires not only imagination and conceptual thinking but also sound knowledge of practical aspects‚ such as recent design codes and bye-laws‚ backed up by ample experience‚ institution and judgment. It is emphasized that any structure to be constructed must satisfy the need efficiency for which it is intended and shall be durable for its desired life span. Thus‚ the design of any structure is categorizes
