		<description><![CDATA[The construction joint shall be pre decided and fixed prior to start of the concreting. It is planned to have two construction joints for main building as decided. In case of major break down of the Batching plant, the additional Construction joint may be left. The location of the construction joint shall be at the one-third span. Construction joint shall be straight and have profile of ‘L’shape so that successive layer of concrete shall be perfectly bonded with previous laid layer.

The use of reinforced concrete is a relatively recent invention, usually dated to 1848 when jean-Louis Lambot became the first to use it. Joseph Monier, a French gardener, patented a design for reinforced garden tubs [...]

HSC is being utilised in many projects. High-strength concrete members exhibit, in some instances, different failure mechanisms and simply extrapolating models and equations meant for normal strength to high-strength concrete may lead to unsafe [...]
