Capacity Planning The overall objective of strategic capacity planning is to reach an optimal level where production capabilities meet demand. Capacity needs include equipment‚ space‚ and employee skills. If production capabilities are not meeting demand‚ high costs‚ strains on resources‚ and customer loss may result. It is important to note that capacity planning has many long term concerns given the long term commitment of resources. Managers should recognize the broader effects capacity

Consolidation of plastic concrete is termed as compaction. In the process of compaction‚ efforts are only directed to reduce the voids in the compacted concrete. Compaction of concrete can be done either manually or mechanically. When it is done manually it is called hand compaction or tamping‚ and in second case it is termed as machine compaction. Hand compaction: Hand compaction is done with the help of steel tamping rods‚ or timber screeds. Marrow and deep members are compacted with tamping

Mixture proportioning: Procedures outlined in ACI 211.1 should be used for mixture proportioning. Typical proportions for heavyweight concrete are shown in Table 2. MATERIALS : Cement Cements conforming to ASTM C 150‚ which would be suitable for conventional concrete and produce the required physical properties‚ are suitable for use in heavyweight concrete. Aggregate Thorough examination and evaluation of heavyweight aggregate sources are necessary to obtain material suitable for the type

The term "Capacity Building" may be easily misunderstood. It has much wider meaning than is understood in general sense. What it then really means and how useful it is for an organization? Find an answer in the article. I’m presently working on a research project closely related to the title in use. So‚ I felt like understanding the term ‘Capacity Building’ first before I can conduct further study on which I’m able to suggest appropriate measures for the ‘Capacity Building’ of personnel working
