  • Weather Shed Chhajja Attachment with Ferrocement Plates
    Weather shed Chhajja attachment with Ferrocement plates • Attachment by innovative anchoring system • Joint with building totally waterproof • Integrates with building • Brackets generally provided for conventional are eliminated REPAIRS, REHABILITATION AND RETRO-FITTING Significance of Ferrocement repairs After, we in India, started manufacture of concrete in years 1930’s, the negative aspect of concrete started showing after sometime as below:- - Deterioration due to poor workmanship, particularly high water content and corrosion of reinforcement and R.C.C. Technology being new. - Leakages in concrete due to rain water as well as in water retaining structures This menace become conspicuous after construction works which became old about 20 to 30 years. We started realizing the importance of water cement ratio that only since about 40 years before and we have become very much conscious and now most of our engineers try their best to have Water cement ratio to the extent of its requirement. Even then, we did not stop production of concrete with water content comparatively more. It had been accepted that concrete is heterogeneous material and theory of reinforced concrete design is on the basis of cracked section below neutral axis. With this acceptance, scores of water proof additives and other admixtures contributing to the increase in strength, durability, workability and waterproof quality of concrete have come into market. Now it is a foregone conclusion that you cannot have best quality of concrete unless admixtures are used in its manufacture. Also many instruments for diagnosis for defective concrete such as porosity, lamination of cement matrix with course aggregate, corrosion of reinforcement, location of corroded reinforcement, strength of concrete etc.

  • Movable Architecture of the Mughals and Its Continuity Suraiya Akhter*
    Jagannath University Journal of Arts Vol-8, No. 2, July-December 2018 Movable Architecture of the Mughals and Its Continuity Suraiya Akhter* Introduction In 1666 Tavernier, the European traveler visited Subehdar Shaista Khan‟s residence in Dhaka, found him residing in a wooden house near the bank of Buriganga River. Though W.W. Hunter identified it as temporary structure inside of Lalbagh Fort, and he explains the incomplete condition of Lalbagh fort as the reason behind such living , the other scholars identified this area as Pakurtuli fort, a complete structure in which the Subadars of Dhaka resided at least from the period of Islam Khan Chisti. The construction of Lalbagh was started in 1678 , twelve years after Tavernier's visit to Dhaka. However, Tavernier‟s description provides us the evidence of Shaista Khan‟s passion for the Mughal culture of residing in a temporary house within the Garden. The development of tent, Shamiana, and Pavilion of the Mughals as an architecture peaked during the reign of Shah Jahan (1628-56 ) however, its origins can be traced back to Babur, the first Mughal Emperor of India (1526–30 ) , and beyond. The descendants of Timur, the great Turkish- Mongol ruler of the late fourteenth and early fifteenth centuries, introduced the concept of Char-Bagh1 in their landscape planning adorned with tent and Samiana or pavilion and used them both in peace and war. Though the Mughal emperors built fort-palaces in various cities elaborately and gorgeously, they did not live there permanently. They spent most of the time in tents which were generally placed inside a garden.
