Wearables are the devices designed to collect and deliver data about the worker’s environment, activities and biometric conditions. This can be put in worker’s body, clothing or personal protective equipment. Some wearable improves comfort whereas others improve safety. These technology in construction is increasing on the job site. By using this technology accidents can be avoided. Some wearable devices are explained in this blog. Smart Cap This construction wearable uses brain waves to monitor fatigue. When workers are fitted with a Smart Cap hat or hard hat, it measures their fatigue to prevent micro-sleeps. If a worker starts to go to sleep it sends alerts through vibrations and noise to let the wearer know they should stop what they’re doing. This will keep workers alert on the job site. And it gives supervisors the ability to know if someone is falling asleep. This way they can get them to a safer place to wake up so no accidents occur. Smart Glasses Smar...

‘Standard specification and work procedure for brickwork in masonry construction‘ provides guidelines about quality of bricks, mortar, soaking of bricks, laying of bricks, curing, scaffolding etc. The construction of brickwork in substructure and superstructure involves quality control on various aspects of material and construction procedure. Procedure of Brickwork in Masonry Construction Ø   Materials for Brickwork Bricks It should be as per standard specification, the quality of bricks should meet the standard requirement. It should be free from carks, lumps etc. and has to be in proper shape, regular and their edges should be sharp enough. Bricks should not absorb water more than one-sixth of their weight after one-hour soaking by immersing in water. Mortar Material used for mortar should be as per standard specification and mortar should be of the specified grade. For cement mortar cement has to be as per standard specification and sand should be...

This application for building began to use in 1970s. At that time Aluminium-framed photovoltaic modules were connected to buildings that were usually in remote areas without access to an electric power grid. In the 1980s photovoltaic module add-ons to roofs began being demonstrated. In the 1990s BIPV construction products specially designed to be integrated into a building envelope became commercially available. In this global warming time, Major concern is to reduce environmental pollution, energy saving, finding an alternative source for electricity generation, etc. and therefore renewable and sustainable energy is becoming the most important thing to focus. Building integrated photovoltaic system helps to do so.BIPV system contributes to developing net-zero energy buildings. Building integrated photovoltaic system helps the buildings to generate their own electricity by transforming the whole building into a solar panel. Photovoltaic glazing is a technology which...

Fly ash is the finely divided residue that results from the combustion of pulverized coal and is transported from the combustion chamber by exhaust gases. It is produced by coal-fired electric and steam generating plants. Types of Fly Ash There are two types of fly ash Class C Fly Ash : It is produced from the combustion younger lignite or subbituminous coal. Class F Fly Ash : It is produced from the burning of harder bituminous coal and older anthracite. Application of Fly Ash             ·          Fly Ash is a prime material in many cement products like pouring concrete, Concrete block and brick. ·          Mainly it is used in Portland cement concrete pavement or PCC pavement. ·          By using fly ash in PCC road construction projects, it gives remarkable economic benefits as it is ...
