As a result, the sustainable housing policies sought would help ensure that houses built are ideal, comfortable and eco-friendly. Besides known stakeholders in the construction industry such as construction companies,
These environments can be any for instance the column of the bridge comes in interaction to the sea/river water which is corrosive and destroys the steel; therefore the strength of the structure is reduced. Secondly the reason for the cover is that it gives a good finished surface which can be painted and decorated easily.
Introduction
Cement is used in all building construction. It is a great advantage to lessen its cost. Silica fume are air-pollutants as a by-product of the production of ferrosilicon alloys. Due to its environmental impact, its proper disposal has been a concern.
The research will try to explain various examples of successful and failed structure to show the significance of the design and importance of a bridge or a highway. The report covers all the factors involved in making this modern era masterpiece. The report will stress on the significance of bridges and highways and different aspects of them which are an essential part of their existence.
The common materials used in the construction industry are concrete and steel. Each of these materials has cons and pros that make them fit for construction in this industry. From tests and studies conducted, the weaknesses attributed to these materials have been used to look for ways of improving them.

It was nicknamed ‘The Theatre of Dreams’ by Manchester United's famous captain Sir Bobby Charlton. In spite of current refurbishments that have maintained the stadium looking silky and modern, it still has an irrefutable impression. Old Trafford was the premiere stadium to have a ring of seats and stands that completely surrounded the pitch.
THEORY The water/cement ratio is one of the important parameters which decides the strength of the concrete (Newman, 2003). It can be assumed that generally the strength of concrete increases with the content of cement and decreases with air and moisture content.

The things were at its worse in 2009-10 but now on the road to recovery as the markets are gaining back its confidence and the government is providing financial as well as policy based stimulus. According to Construction Skills Network CSN has assessed that the UK’s construction market abruptly contracted by 13% in 2009-10.
Before we get into introducing the building, let us talk a little bit about what this project is going to accomplish. First, we have a program called Cymap, which is going to help create the design of a building in 3D. “In the field of building services (HVAC, etc.), there is, for example…a direct link with the software package CADlink/Cymap.
It incorporates endurance while maintaining well being in the different concepts in the ecology which are environmental, economic, and social and resource use. In ecology sustainability aims at making biological systems diverse and productive to human beings.
The Cornick v Le Gac case is an indicator that it is not possible to balance the interest of neighbors in terms of their rights and entitlements. However, it points out the need for both parties to be considerate of each other’s welfare and rights. Parties are urged to respect the principle of voisinage which binds them into a quasi-relationship.

So, this is a well graded soil. (b) As Plasticity index Ip = liquid limit – plastic limit So Ip of soft sandy clay= 36 – 15 = 21 Ip of Firm silty clay = 47 - 18 = 29 Ip of Stiff Clay = 67 – 19 = 48 And Liquidity Index IL = So IL of soft sand clay = 27-15/21 = 0.57 IL of Firm silty clay = 29-18/29 = 0.38 IL of Stiff clay = 25-19/48 = 0.125 Question No.
