RETROFITTING AND REHABILITATION OF CIVIL ENGINEERING STRUCTURES WHAT IS THE CONCEPT OF REPAIRING? • Once problems are clearly identified and objectives have been set‚ a timetable for repair is established in close consultation with the property owner that is in keeping with the findings of the evaluation. • First and foremost‚ the contractor must comply with the drawing details and specifications. To further ensure the durability of the repair‚ repair procedures and selection

Genetic engineering of plants (crops) Pros|Cons| Less tillage needed‚ especially with crops containing herbicide tolerance transgenes‚ therefore conserves fertility through minimizing soil damage through compression. |GE agriculture claims low tillage weed control: this can be achieved by ending the practice of monoculture and instead introducing proper crop rotations designed specifically to combat the weeds of the particular locality. Monoculture creates a weed paradise. | All countries face

Is Genetic Engineering the Answer to Ending Global Hunger? Nick Simmons SCI207: Dependence of Man on the Environment Instructor: Thomas Davis 9-3-2010 As with traditional plant breeding‚ genetic engineering seeks to develop plants that feature certain desirable traits. These could include developing plants that feature "input" traits such as resistance to pests or resistance to fungus and disease or plants that can withstand frost or drought conditions. This could also

and disadvantages of Agile Software Engineering? One mooted solution to project management issues is Agile Software Engineering. Agile software engineering was devised‚ in the early 1990’s‚ as a counter to the then-prevalent preference for huge‚ carefully-planned and expertly orchestrated grand projects. As Alistair Cockburn has noted‚ "the 1990’s saw some of the most bloated‚ over-organised attempts at problem-solving imaginable‚ whereas agile software engineering came in like a breath of fresh air

Elements of Fire Protection Engineering We always look at the fire-fighters and firemen and consider them to be extremely brave and dedicated because they risk their lives to save the lives of others. But it is not as simple as it looks from the outside. Fire protection is an extremely vast and important topic because it can cause serious damage and hazard and can outburst anywhere and at any time because of no solid reason as such. And hence the engineers of the world have taken on the responsibility

something which mesmerized me‚ then it has to be huge structures like railroads‚ airports‚ highways and all such Mega Structures. After I grew up‚ I learnt that all my areas of interest coincided with what the course of Civil Engineering offered. This made Civil Engineering as my obvious choice for under-graduation. I worked hard towards my interest and secured admission into Chaitanya Bharathi Institute of Technology‚ Hyderabad which is one of the premier technical institutions of the country.

Pursuing engineering as my future was a natural consequence of my love for machines‚ science and technology. ‘Learning to excel’ is the principal reason that strives everyone to turn efficient through self-perfection and I’m no exception in this regard. Even before my passion towards these machines‚ I have been in love with automobiles for as long as I can remember and this naturally intrigued me to explore‚ learn and develop ideas into practical solutions. As an undergrad‚ I was exposed to a stimulating
