Void slabs Strengthening with Epoxy Coating

 A voided slab is a concept that simply removes the inactive concrete from the slab reducing its weight. This also reduces the overall cost of construction. 

 To create the voids, epoxy-coated cardboard blocks were equally distributed in the slabs. 

With the use of 16x16x6 cm blocks in different configurations, voided slab system reduced self-weight in the range of 12% to 24% in comparison with the Reinforced Cement Concrete (RCC) slab without affecting its strength. 

 This concept has wide scope of execution in construction industry in single storey as well as multistory buildings.

Online GDB

Introduction:  GDB is a debugger for C (and C++). It allows you to do things like run the program up to a certain point then stop and print out the values of certain variables at that point, or step through the program one line at a time and print out the values of each variable after executing each line. DB online is an online compiler and debugger tool for C, C++, Python, PHP, Ruby, C#, OCaml, VB, Perl, Swift, Prolog, JavaScript, Pascal, COBOL, HTML, CSS, JS. Code, Compile, Run and Debug online from anywhere in world .   Execution Plan:   The teacher explains some topics by using this debugger and given demonstration regarding how to use GDB .    Outcomes:  1. Students can get knowledge of GDB it speed up programming.   User Manual

Understanding Java: A Powerful and Versatile Programming Language

Java is one of the most widely used programming languages in the world. It has a rich history and continues to play a pivotal role in software development across various domains. Whether you're building mobile apps, developing web applications, or working on enterprise-level systems, Java offers the tools and flexibility needed to create robust and scalable software. The Origins of Java Java was first developed by Sun Microsystems in the mid-1990s and was later acquired by Oracle Corporation. The language was initially designed to have a "write once, run anywhere" capability, meaning that code written in Java can run on any platform that supports Java without the need for recompilation. This cross-platform feature is made possible by the Java Virtual Machine (JVM), which interprets Java bytecode and executes it on the host machine. Key Features of Java Platform Independence : One of Java's standout features is its platform independence. Java programs are compiled into...

Tinkercad

    Tinkercad is a free, web-based 3D design and modeling software primarily geared towards beginners, educators, and hobbyists. Created by Autodesk, Tinkercad allows users to easily create 3D models, circuit designs, and simulations without needing any prior experience in CAD (Computer-Aided Design). The software emphasizes user-friendliness, providing a simple interface for designing 3D models and simulating electronic circuits, making it ideal for educational purposes and quick prototyping.   Tinkercad is widely used for various purposes such as 3D printing, creating design prototypes, and teaching electronics. It provides access to an online community where users can share their designs, collaborate with others, and explore various project ideas.   Installing steps: Since Tinkercad is a cloud-based platform, there is no installation required on the user's computer. It can be accessed directly through a web browser by following these steps: 1. Go to th...
