... To study the behaviour of flat plate under seismic vibration, dynamic analysis is performed using response spectrum method and results are computed. The structure is provided with two-way slab for ground floor roof and RCC Flat Plate for first floor roof and with following parameters (Ramesh 2020) says that Structural dynamics is particularly useful for analysing dynamic structures under varying loads. It is critical to understand the distinction between structural statics and structural dynamics. ...

Damage may be assessed using several damage indices with values associated with different structural damage states. The usefulness of a variety of current response-based damage indices in seismic damage assessment is addressed and critically assessed. A novel rational damage assessment method is provided, which measures the structure’s physical reaction characteristics. A practical method based on various analyses is given to evaluate the damaged structures in earthquakes of different intensities. This paper provides an overview of previous research works on the damage assessment of the reinforced concrete structures. This study may be helpful for easy understanding about the damage assessment of reinforced concrete structures and reduce the impacts of disaster and surrounding structures.

Any mode of transportation that is green and has a low environmental effect is considered sustainable transportation. It’s all about juggling our immediate and longterm interests when it comes to transportation. Rolling, riding, transit, carpooling, car sharing, and electric cars are also examples of urban mobility. Transportation is the single greatest cause of air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions. Everyone can further reduce their adverse consequences by opting for efficient transportation instead of driving a vehicle. Transportation emits around a quarter of all pollution, according to the Environmental Protection Agency. The typical automobile emits 4,720 kg of CO2 , 186.6 kilograms of CO, 28 kilograms of VOCs , and 25.6 kilograms of NOx .

Site selection is very important for any construction of structure and management. The appropriate site selection gives very good life and durability to the structure. Site selection is also improving quality of the structure and life of the structure. So, site selection is very important in of structures. In this, Geographic information system is a tool used for site selection of structure. Geographic information system is used to analyses and manipulate the spatially referenced data. It is also known as remotely sensed data or information. Geographic information system is giving a better output with in short period of time. So Geographic information system is most widely used now a days around the world. In recent developments attribute data are analysis by using Geographic information system. The selection of site depends on soil conditions, environmental conditions, weathering agencies etc. so proper planning and design of site selection is very important to make a structure in long life and increase the life span of the structure.

The sum of CO2 that has been released into the atmosphere is roughly equal to the amount of cement produced. Cement manufacturing now consumes many natural resources and cement substitute materials in the analysis of Micro Structural Properties of Ternary Blended Concrete. The mixed proportion in this analysis is made of M30 Concrete. The cement is substituted with a mixture of two materials in amounts ranging from 10% to 50%. For the mix of materials, Fly Ash is kept constant. The specimen is a 150mmx150mmx150mm cube, and the concrete is cast in a 150mmx300mm cylinder. The cast specimens are held for 28 days to cure. Compressive and split tensile strength tests are used to achieve the results. The combination at 10%, at 20%, at 20%, and 20% produced better strength results in all proportions from 10% to 50%. Besides, scanning electron microscopy techniques were used to understand better phase changes and the formation of microstructures to maturing the combination of materials at various percentages. SEM was used to evaluate the microstructure of the concrete for five different varieties, which helps with solid growth. With the highest compressive strength gained among all the mixes from 10% to 50% with combinations for M30 grade of concrete at 28 days, significant innovative information on particle shape and microstructure was observed. Via SEM study, a good correlation of this Microscopical quantitative knowledge and material properties is also presented.

Geopolymer Concrete is a new innovative type of concrete, and it is used widely in the construction industries. This type of concrete comes into place due to reduced cement content usage in the construction of structures. Already we are using cement as a binding material widely in the construction sector, but the problem is due to the cement content Co2 emissions are mainly produced and one more problem is greenhouse gases are increasing rapidly during the manufacturing of cement. Then after a lot of researchers, finally we got a geopolymer as a replacement for cement. By replacing cement content with geopolymer, we can reduce the cost of construction and reuse the structural materials. So, this type of concrete is different from standard conventional concrete. We can minimize Co2 and greenhouse gases’ problem in the atmosphere and make the structure an environmentally friendly solution. So, this type of concrete is very famous in the construction industry, and there are benefits also excellent. So, it can be used widely in construction sectors worldwide. This paper may help understand Geopolymer Concrete for everyone quickly. It gives a quick review of the Geopolymer Concrete.

Concrete is the most commonly used building material due to its high strength, moldability, weather-resistant, and fire resistance, among other benefits. In recent years, there has been a growth in the usage of Micro Silica fume. Through the Ore sand Bridge building, records show that Micro Silica was used in the concrete. These fabrics are not only environmentally sustainable, but they also have technological advantages on both new and hardened mortar products. Both goods are agricultural by-products, but their usage decreases the amount of primary raw materials removed from the earth. Latent hydraulic content is micro silica fume and fly ash. It has intrinsic cementation effects, which must be activated. Combining the powder with Portland cement is a popular way to achieve these results. Pozzolana is the name given to pulverized fly ash. These materials may not have intrinsic cementation properties, but a cementation substance is created when mixed with a high alkaline material.

Greenhouse gases emissions are very important for every structure and environment. Greenhouse gases are increased now a days due to changes in climatic conditions by involving human activities in the last decades. In this main contributor is carbon content and carbon dioxide and methane in the environment. The main solution is to limit the changes in the climatic conditions. To reduce the use of carbon emissions in construction of Buildings and construction of Industrial structures. Structures which are made from timber and steel are produce less carbon and greenhouse gases compared to the concrete and steel structures. By using reused and recyclable materials we can reduce the carbon footprints and greenhouse gases as well as to develop low carbon materials. We need to design low carbon buildings to avoid climatic changes in the environment. Which will be give renewable performance. This paper gives a knowledge and help to reduction of carbon footprints on buildings. The main concept of this paper is reducing the emissions and reduce the carbon footprints and increase the life of the structure and to make the structure sustainable.
