The rehabilitation of any structure is necessary, if the potential strength, as on the date, of the structural element or the global strength, found less than proposed, thereby reducing the factor of safety. The reduction in factor of safety alarms the danger signal during the event of disaster especially like earthquake. The ageing of the admixtures of the building components, environmental effects on the materials, repeated excessive or the change in the stresses reduces the strength. The change of use causing undesired change in nature and or of quantity of loading, change made in seismic zone, by national bodies, are the other factors that contribute in reduction of potential strength of the building.

Earthquakes are natural hazards under which disasters are mainly caused by damage to structures or collapse of buildings and other man-made structures. Shaking and ground rupture are the main effects created by earthquakes, principally resulting in more or less severe damage to buildings and other rigid structures. As the earth vibrates, all buildings on the ground surface will respond to that vibration in varying degrees. The horizontal ground motion action is similar to the effect of a horizontal force action on the building.
Glass fibre reinforced polymer composites (GFRP) are being widely used in many applications because of their light weight, high stiffness and good damping properties. Their use in both offshore and onshore applications is becoming inevitable because of their excellent anti corrosive behaviour. These composites are subjected to severe loading and environmental conditions during their service. The conduct of the composites under certain ecological conditions is to be examined for legitimate working and to stay away from conceivable disappointment of the part. Likewise amid the lifetime of the composite there is a plausibility that the composite might be subjected to various situations than that it is as a rule by and by utilized for. Under every one of these conditions it gets to be distinctly basic that the conduct of the composite be considered for safe outline. Damping is one such property that should be contemplated for evaluating the vibrational conduct of the composites.
The performance of your local area network (LAN) can directly affect your company’s business success. In small and medium businesses alike, employees need quick, reliable access to applications and data to perform their jobs. A LAN that delivered adequate performance when installed, however, may now be straining. Factors contributing to the need for an upgrade are more users, more powerful PCs and servers, more demanding applications, and the growing role of the intranet.
Step by Step Solution to Your Computer Problems
In this report a model for the determination of the serviceability and ultimate moment capacities of bolted moment end plate connections utilising rectangular hollow sections joined with eight bolts is presented. The connection configuration is such that two bolts are located above each of the flanges and beside each of the webs. The model considers the combined effects of prying action due to flexible end plates, the formation of yield lines in the end plates, and failures due to punching shear and beam section failure. The model is calibrated and validated using experimental data from a test program. The design model constitutes a relatively simple method for predicting the serviceability and ultimate moment capacities for the particular type of bolted moment end plate connection described herein.
As more and more organizations consider moving their applications and data from dedicated hosting infrastructure, which they own and operate, to shared infrastructure leased from `the cloud', security remains a key sticking point. Tenants of cloud hosting providers have substantially less control over the construction, operation, and auditing of infrastructure they lease than infrastructure they own. Because cloud-hosted infrastructure is shared, attackers can exploit the proximity that comes from becoming a tenant of the same cloud hosting provider. As a result, some have argued that that cloud-hosted infrastructure is inherently less secure than the self-hosted infrastructure, and that it will never be appropriate for high- stakes applications such as health care or nancial transaction processing.
Optical fiber communication has emerged as a high potential substitute for communication methods such as twisted pair and coaxial wire. The main advantage of optical fiber over previous methods is to have higher capacity of data rate transmission. The conventional types of modulation and demodulation technique, which have been used through optical fiber communication system are Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) technique and Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) technique so far.
