INSTITUTE-INDUSTRY INTERACTION OF APPLE CHEMIE




INSTITUTE-INDUSTRY INTERACTION OF APPLE CHEMIE WITH VNIT NAGPUR AND INTERNATIONAL INSTITUTES


Apple Chemie has a multi-dimensional engagement with Indian and foreign institutes. Apple Chemie has joined an industrial association with Visvesvaraya National Institute of Technology (VNIT NAGPUR) for promoting and reinforcing cooperation, mutual exchange of Information and Technological know- how, joint collaborative work in R&D projects, curriculum development, internships and placements, infrastructure development, improvement of research and academic Programmes and also exchange of experts and researchers. The technical support as well as aid in R&D work, to help India become a leading global player in the area of smart industrial technology. Recently we have also enhanced our institute-industry collaboration by working with Dr Ana Armada Bras.
















Ana Bras has 13 years of work experience in R&D/Consultancy in the building construction sector and currently, she is a Senior Lecturer (Associate Professor) at the Department of Built Environment at Liverpool John Moores University (UK). She has numerous research papers published by her in esteemed international journals.
Ana develops research work in the field of performance-based design (laboratory and computational-based) for the selection of the best retrofitting solutions using probabilistic approaches to increase the effectiveness of sustainable solutions in terms of their service life, and to estimate energy savings and hydrothermal risks.

Visit by Dr. Ana Armada Bras (Associate Professor, Liverpool John Moores University (UK)) & Dr. Rahul V. Ralegaonkar (Professor, VNIT Nagpur) at Apple Chemie INDIA Pvt. Ltd.

Apple Chemie with VNIT Nagpur and Dr Ana Bras (UK) are working on bio-concrete application with suitable usage of various ashes in construction industry. Its one of the innovative project of the Apple Chemie as well as for the Indian Industry. Following the concept of MAKE IN INDIA Apple Chemie is trying to further explore this field. For this Dr. Ana Bras visited Apple Chemie R&D lab and manufacturing unit at Nagpur. She was fascinated by the Apple Chemie work in R&D lab and also gave suggestions for further development of future sustainaible and enviroenment friendly technologies.
Apple Chemie is in association with the Industry Institute Interaction Cell established at VNIT (the then VRCE) in 1989 under the Industry Institute Interaction Scheme of the Ministry of Human Resources Development, Govt. of India. The Objectives of Industry Institute Interaction Cell
The III Cell was established with the following major objectives :
·      To evolve educational programmes which are consistent with the broad requirements of the industry and which can give rise to engineering personnel capable of coping-up with the accelerating pace of the technological development
·   To create adequate facilities of updating knowledge of professional engineers and technologists to meet growth and developmental needs of the industry
·       To coordinate the research and developmental activities of the two systems

Concrete Curing Compound

Curing is essential for the hydration of cement in concrete making. So, to maintain required moisture content, come precautions are applied. Concrete curing compound is a compound which helps to prevent the loss of moisture content from the concrete. So, concrete is properly cured which results the full development of strength of concrete. Types of Concrete Curing Compounds ·          Synthetic Resin Concrete Curing Compound Synthetic resins will seal the concrete by forming membrane. If we want to provide plastering, the membrane can be removed by washing it with hot water. ·          Acrylic Concrete Curing Compound Acrylic is made of polymers of acrylic acid. It also seals the concrete in good manner. It is having property of adhesion to the subsequent plaster. No need to wash the surface of acrylic with hot water if we want to provide plastering. ·      ...

Materials are used for road construction

Image
Road consist of basically 4 layers: Sub-grade: The sub-grade material should be clean and free from organic matter and should be able to be compacted by roller, to form stable sub-base. The material should have the following characteristics: ·          Well graded, uniformity coefficient (D60/D10) should not be less than 3. ·          Fraction passing sieve #200 shall not be greater than 2/3rd of the fraction passing sieve #40. ·          Should have a L.L not greater than 25%. ·          P.I not greater than 6 ·          CBR should not be less than 25. ·          In coarse grain, aggregate retained by #10 sieve, %age of wear shall not be greater than 5%. ·          The maximum dia...

DESIGN PROCEDURES FOR A BUILDING FOUNDATION

Good design must not only be safe but must aim to save construction costs, time and materials. The following procedures should help to achieve this and an ‘educated’ client will recognize the importance of funding this work with a realistic fee. 1. DECIDE THE LOCATION OF COLUMNS & FOUNDATION AND TYPE OF LOADS ACTING ON THEM On the building plan, the position of columns and load bearing walls should be marked, and any other induced loading's and bending moments. The loads should be classified into dead, imposed and wind loading's, giving the appropriate partial safety factors for these loads. 2. ESTIMATE ALLOWABLE BEARING PRESSURE OF SOIL USING GROUND INVESTIGATION REPORT From a study of the site ground investigation (if available), the strength of the soil at various depths or strata below foundation level should be studied, to determine the safe bearing capacity at various levels. These values – or presumed bearing values (from any standards or codes) in the...
