IMPROVEMENT OF MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF RIGID PAVEMENTS

INTRODUCTION
Transportation-basic infrastructure-development

Rigid and flexible

Basic neccesity-stable against loads

Rigid offers more strength “load

But change in temp. “warping up and warping down

To relieve stress-joint

Joint from the weaker plane and most of defects occur there

Increase the mechanical properties such as load carrying capacity and cracking resistance

Methods for improvement

Voltage Stability Improvement using Static Var Compensator in Power Systems

Abstract This paper investigates the effects of Static Var Compensator (SVC) on voltage stability of a power system. The functional structure for SVC built with a Thyristor Controlled Reactor (TCR) and its model are described. The model is based on representing the controller as variable impedance that changes with the firing angle of the TCR. A Power System Computer Aided Design /Electromagnetic Transients including DC (PSCAD/EMTDC) is used to ....etc

GROUND IMPROVEMENT TECHNIQUES FOR HIGHWAYS

INTRODUCTION
Transportation - needed for the development of the country.
The main mode of transportation is by road or highways.
In the process of road development, the alignment of road may have to be fixed through the soils which may not bear the traffic loads .
There are various techniques of ground improvement.

METHODS FOR GROUND IMPROVEMENT
Soil stabilization
Vertical drains
Stabilization trenches
Capillary cut-off
Soil nailing
Stone columns

Shingo is well-known for his evolutionary work at Toyota and other Japanese companies, where he developed entire production systems focused on achieving zero defects in production. Behind poka-yoke is the notion that it is not acceptable to produce even a small amount of nonconforming product. To become a world-class competitor, an organization must adopt not only a philosophy but a practice of producing zero defects. Poka-yoke methods are the simple concepts for achieving this goal and are a key component of the continual improvement strategy ....etc
