FAECAL SLUDGE MANAGEMENT SERVICES FOR BAKSHI KAA TAALAB TOWN, LUCKNOW IN UP, INDIA
Farrukh R Khan , Sandeep Khare, Puneet Srivastava · Regional Manager - North, WaterAid India, Lucknow, India, IN
population of 49,166 (Census 2011). WaterAid India and Vigyan Foundation with the help of Municipality of BKT
has carried out rapid scoping study of FSM services for BKT in year 2018. 93% of the septic tanks installed by
households are overflowing into open drains while 67% households have never resorted to emptying their septic tanks.
Faecal Sludge therefore is dispersed mostly in open environment in BKT town calling for immediate action by all
stakeholders. This paper narrates key findings of study.The study titled “FSM services for BKT” is based on
Household level survey of total 57 households (3 Households from 19 wards) and key informant interviews with
desludging services providers both from municipality and private informal sector. 89% household surveyed were
having one toilet whereas 9 % of household were having 2 toilets and another 2% had 3 or more number of toilets
within households. BKT also has plans under SBM for 2 Public Toilets and 19 Community Toilets. BKT had 8728
families as per census 2011. All these toilets are connected to a so called structure of Septic Tank. 93% of Households
have Pucca (well build house) structure whereas another 5% households have semi pucca (Semi Well Built House)
and 2% households have Kutcha (temporary shelter) structure.
BKT posed a typical challenge of a small town situated very close to big city in terms of absence of sewerage services
and poor management of faecal sludge. The quick assessment of FSM in BKT presents a pathetic picture of largely
unregulated FSM services and recommends for a quick action on regulating and organizing FSM services across the
value chain of safe containment, safe emptying, safe transportation, safe treatment and reuse of Faecal Sludge by
NPP BKT with technical support from external agencies and state authorities. BKT can become, in effect, Open
Defecation Free (ODF) only when the Faecal Sludge is managed safely and effectively.
Based on rapid assessment, the research team suggests a model of FSM services that is economically self-sustainable
to run the transportation and treatment costs of BKT Nagar Panchayat. The model proposed consists of construction
of a 25 KLD Faecal Sludge Treatment plant by BKT Nagar Panchayat and running 3 emptiers of 5 KLD each for
collection and transportation of 25 KLD septage daily to treatment Plant. The desludging charges are proposed to
start with same amount that is being charged currently by private service provider.The scheduled desludging period of
at least once in every 3 years, regulation of emptiers , fixation of route map ,regulation of emptying charges,
monitoring with GPS installed emptiers trucks , 24X 7 Help line for citizens are some of the recommendations from
the study.
Construction and operation of FSTP of at least 25 KLD capacity to begin with, in Mubarakpur area (where the land is
observed to be available for this purpose by municipality), shall be the first step towards organizing the FSM services
by BKT NPP. Since the design capacity is not expected to be used initially completely, it is proposed to collect sludge
from septic tanks from adjoining rural villages as well on a nominal tipping fees and desludging charges as regulated
by BKT NPP. The FSM Model proposed is for small towns and adjoin 8-10 GPs with predominance of septic tanks
and can be Rurban model for achieving economies of scale in FSM services.

SOLID LIQUID WASTE-CHANGED PERSPECTIVE AND LOCAL SOLUTIONS
Anjali Tripathy · Programme Coordinator, WaterAid, Lucknow (UP), India, IN
reach to villages has made the situation of collection of waste to infinite. Along with this liquid waste is a huge issue.
There is no clear guidance and policy of government at centre or state which can guide to solutions in useful manner.
Landfills or burning of waste is a way to dump all collection of waste happens in rural and Urban areas. In rural area
too slowly it becoming an issues due to lose of conventional practices. Waste dumping is happening in natural water
resources in villages or is either burned. Plastics can be seen logging the water in drains. Excess use of plastic has not
only impacted our environment, it has also reached to stomach of animals specially fishes and cows. They are
subjected to death due to collection plastic in their stomach. Inadequate e guidelines on SLWM and inappropriate
policies make is more pathetic with the increase in the population, the generation of waste increases proportionately.
Swacch Bharat Mission has put lot of efforts towards making the villages open defecation free. One these gram
panchayats are made ODF which is just stopping open defecation by communities and using toilets, there is need to
put additional efforts to make communities managing their waste in form of solid waste of liquid so they are and basic
hygiene is maintained. Also there is need to create livelihood prospect for communities in village itself. Along with this
there is need to find solutions for solid and liquid waste in village itself.
This paper is an attempt to provide some solution which not only tell that the waste can be seen as resource, there are
easy solutions to reduce the waste, recycle, convert it into resources. Segregation at different levels is process which
can done in decentralised manner in low investment with long term effect. This is not only needed in each community
but for planet where we live. To reduce the after effects of landfills, climate change, on human life and water we have.
This helps to not only convert waste into resource, it also helps to think avenues for livelihoods for many.

A REVIEW OF LITERATURE ON STABILIZATION OF EXPANSIVE SOIL USING SOLID INDUSTRIAL WASTE
Abhraneel Sengupta , Faheem Ahmad Khan · M.Tech Scholar, Department of Civil Engineering, BBDU, Lucknow, India, IN
changing moisture condition (Nelson and Miller, 1992)13. Severe damage occur to structure founded on expansive
soil. Soil stabilization is defined as process by which a soil material is improved and made more stable by increasing
the bearing capacity of soil (Joel and Agbede, 2011)8
. Black Cotton soil are inorganic clays and occur in central and
western part of India and covers nearly 20% of the country’s area. These soil are very high when dry but loses its
entire strength when comes in contact with moisture. It is generally observed that these soil develop deep cracks of
varying depth when dry. As a result of wetting and drying process, some vertical movement takes place of the soil mass
and leads to failure of pavement, in form of settlement, heavy depression, cracking and unevenness.
These soils are highly clayey and is so hard that clods cannot be easily pulverized for treatment for its use in pavement
and poses a problem regarding performance of road. Softened subgrade has a tendency to heave up into upper layers
of pavement, when sub-base has a lot of voids. Roads laid on BC soil develop undulation on road surface due to loss
of strength of subgrade due to being soft during monsoon. The black colour of the soil is due to presence of titaniumoxide in small quantity. BC soil has high percentage of clay, predominantly montmorillonite in structure and is
blackish-grey in colour. Nearly 40-60% of soil is less than 0.001mm, and at liquid limit the volume change is of order
of 200-300% which results in swelling pressure of 8-10kg/m2
. Therefore the soil has very low bearing capability and
forms a very poor foundation material for pavement because of its high swelling and shrinking. Soaked CBR is
between 2-4% and thus one can construct a pavement of it but one needs to provide excessive pavement thickness.
The objective of the paper is to review the literature on stabilization of expansive soil using Solid Industrial waste
which includes Fly ash, Cement Kiln dust (CKD), Phosphogypsum (PG) and Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GBFS).
Keywords: PG, montmorillonite, subgrade, pavement

gain in terms of compaction characteristics and California Bearing Ratio value. The addition of cement and brick
dust was found to improve the engineering properties of soil in stabilized forms specifically strength, workability, and
compaction and California Bearing Ratio characteristics. Laboratory tests such as compaction, Atterberg’s limits, and
California Bearing Ratio were carried out for different percentages of Brick bust, cement and original soil samples.
The laboratory tests were conducted as per Indian Standard specifications. The present experimental investigation
showed that there is decrease in Optimum moisture content, increase in Maximum Dry Density, decrease in liquid and
plastic limit values and also a tremendous increase in the CBR value of the soil treated with brick dust and cement,
thus leading to decreased thickness requirements of the sub-base and base courses.

and expanded polystyrene. An experimental program based on one variable (proportion of fine aggregates and
expanded polystyrene replacement) was implemented. The proportions of replacement were 5%, 10%, 15%, and 25%
by mass of aggregates. Several mechanical properties were tested as compressive and tensile strengths. The results
show a good correlation between aggregates replacement percentage and concrete properties. Concerning mechanical
properties, a gradual decrease in compressive, splitting, and flexural strength with the increase in recycled aggregate
percentage is shown.

chemical and its solution is prepared in chloroform. This yellow colour reagent is used to absorb AsH3 gas produced
in the reaction flask. It is absorbed by the yellow coloured Silver Diethyl Dithio Carbamate solution containing in utube and changed into reddish colouration. The reddish colour intensity is increased by the increase of arsenic present
in the water sample which is measured by spectrophotometer at the wavelength of 520 nm. Generally arsenic is not
found in most of the samples of drinking water in that case the formation and absorption of AsH3 does not occur in
the solution of Diethyl Dithio Carbamate as the reading shows ‘0’. Thus the solution of SDDC is remaining as such
without any change in colour and that can be reuse for further analysis of arsenic, if collected instead of throwing it
away. Thus under the utilization of the waste the utilization of ‘0’ Arsenic containing SDDC is successfully found
useful and satisfactory for further determination of Arsenic. The used SDDC is also used as blank zero to minimize
any error. Precautionary it should be filter by 40 no. Whatman filter paper before being reused to avoid any turbidity
formed on keeping the used solution of SDDC. Thus the SDDC solution should be very clear to use.

highways that connect to Delhi, Dehradun, and Haridwar. This study utilises the integration of the Remote sensing
data and Arc GIS to perform a preliminary identification and mapping of the change detection using the classified
data and important driving factors of growth in the city. These factors need to be calibrated using quantifiable
indices-like Shannon’s entropy which can evaluate the simulated growth pattern in terms of the degree of dispersion
and concentration of built-up areas in the different zones around the major driving factors. This index helps in
establishing the likely patterns of growth based on the index values obtained. The results and conclusions can serve as
a planning paradigm for any further smart and sustainable development in the city.

expressed in terms of carbon dioxide equivalent. Municipal solid waste consists of organic and inorganic materials.
Decomposition of organic waste leads to the formation of potent greenhouse gases (GHGs) like methane and carbon
dioxide. The objective of this study is to estimate the carbon footprint of Lucknow subjected to the total organic waste
generated. The city had observed population growth rate of 2.6% per year from 2001 to 2011 which has resulted in the
increase of waste. Every day approximately 4000-5000 tonnes of organic waste is generated in the city. Population
forecasting is done to estimate the population and the amount of waste generated in the city by considering the previous
growth rate. Emission factors are used for estimating the GHGs emission from the waste. The result obtained from the
study reveals that the emissions of carbon dioxide and methane is 745.22 kg/day and 58.71 kg/day respectively which
accounts to the carbon footprint of 1978.1 kg/day in terms of equivalent carbon dioxide. Since carbon dioxide and methane
are GHGs these emissions lead to increase in their concentration in the atmosphere which is responsible for global
warming and climate change.

effectively utilized to create different materials for building development, for example, concrete , flush doors,
plywood and so forth. Aggregate is a noteworthy element for influencing concrete, to involve right around 70-80%
of cement. Traditionally pulverized rocks are utilized as coarse aggregate and river sand as fine aggregate. Both are
naturally accessible material. Because of quick development of construction exercises, traditional aggregates
sources are exhausting quick prompting noteworthy increment in expense of construction. For sustained
development, these materials ought to be utilized carefully and elective materials should be sought to supplant
conventional aggregates. Expansive number of studies has been done to scan elective materials for generation of
concrete. In the meantime because of quick industrialization, generation of waste material is expanding
continuously. Its disposal has turned out to be a genuine issue. Answer for this issue is to get rid of it by landfilling
on site or utilize this waste for some positive activity. Space for landfill site is winding up expense issues. In
perspective of this the alternative is it is possible that we ought to limit the waste at production level, or use it. India
is the third biggest coconut creating nation on the planet. Ample measure of waste is created by coconut. The waste
coconut shell might be utilized to supplant traditional coarse aggregate. The point of this paper is to deliver issue
related to scarcity of conventional material, issues of disposal of waste material and assess the works done on
utilization of waste coconut shell for production of concrete.

settlement characteristics of the soil at the site prior to construction. Modification of soil properties subsequent to
construction due to industrial pollution may cause unanticipated settlements or heaving and possible strength loss, which
are not accounted for in the design, resulting in structural distress and consequent failure.
Ground pollution arises from the impact of past and current industrial activity and due to improper disposal of waste
generated by society. Geo-environmental engineering deals with the most important aspects: (a) Soil pollution processes
and effect on geotechnical propertiesand (b) Waste management. Soil pollutants interaction changes soil behaviour and
also can lead to various geotechnical problems. Extensive literature is available on air and water pollution but little effort
has made to determine how the ground soil responds to these hazardous or toxic substances. At present, most geotechnical
projects design and construction are based on the test results followed from ASTM and AASTHO standards. These
standards are based on control conditions at room temperature with distilled water as pore fluid. To accomplish this goal,
we must understand the environmental conditions as they exist on the ground and their interactions over a long-term
period.
Soil Structure Interaction (SSI) analysis is the study of the dynamic response of a structure as influenced by the
interaction with the surrounding soil. The SSI response is sensitive to the characteristics of the soil, structures, and
ground motion, as well as the depth of embedment. Availability of soil dynamic properties is, therefore, of paramount
importance for performing such SSIanalysis. However detailed soil information and associated engineering properties
may not always be available at the beginning of a project. Therefore, the analyst may rely on simplified yet conservative
methodologies to estimate the dynamic response of the coupled soil structure system to generate preliminary or interim
seismic responses.
This study in the growing stage, given its complexity and excessive simplification of the model for soil and structures, and
should be carried for its significance. An attempt was made to summarize the all terms in the area of study. Furthermore,
parametric study on soil structure interaction behaviour by various researchers is tabulated. The existing problems and
the future research trend in this field were also examined.Consideration for environmental stability of the foundation soil
has therefore become an additional responsibility of the geotechnical engineers. Environmental Geotechniques is realized
to be more of a planning and decision tool to be used for forecasting geotechnical problems that may ultimately arise,
rather than solving after the event has occurred.

have attained Open Defecation Free (ODF) status. But the massive number of toilet construction now comes
with its own set of challenges. To mention a few, the ODF drive in manyplaces led to construction of toilets
not suitable according to the topographical characteristics of the region, for example leach pit toilets were
built in high water table and flood prone areas. This in turn pose risk of contamination of water table and
other sources of drinking water. There are also issues with the faulty design of the toilets. In many areas
large number of people also resorted to the construction of septic tanks. Septic tanks have their own set of
second generation problems like desludging, emptying and proper disposal of faecal matter. In the rural
areas these are mainly done manually.
This papers presents the various models of toilets suitable for different kind of topographies- hard rock areas,
high water table areas, flood prone areas. It also talks about the technical solutions for problem of septic tank
based toilets- faecal sludge management. Papers explains details of interventions, relevance, scalability and

households ( 32.3%) having septic tank toilet, 4,380 households having toilet night soil discharge in open drain and
78,868 households having pit toilet or no toilet as per the records of census 2011. These 32.3% septic tanks needs
regular and well-regulated faecal sludge management services that includes its safe collection, transportation,
treatment and reuse. Vigyan Foundation, a local civil society organization with financial support from WaterAid
India started a research project focused on economic analysis of septic tank services by honey suckers and regulatory
provisions that affect it in city of Lucknow. The research worked to collection for information from various sources
on state of urban sanitation, key informant interviews and data analysis. The purpose of the research study was to
understand the economics of Honey suckers and the impact of likely regulatory developments on their serviceability,
treatment of sludge and reuse of treated waste water and sludge. The research study intends to inform the public
policy on linkages between affordability, economics and regulation of septic tank emptying services and options for

SUSTAINABLE WATER SUPPLY BY REJUVENATING DRY WELLS THROUGH CLUSTER APPROACH IN ROOF TOP RAIN WATER HARVESTING IN RURAL DISTRICT BANDA, INDIA- SDG GOAL 6.1
Prashansha Gupta , Dr. Shishir Chandra, Vijay Singh · Project Coordinator Water Aid, Akhil Bhartiya Samaj Sewa Sansthan, Banda, WaterAid, India, IN
in country with 1/3rd of population living below poverty line. Banda district within Bundhelkhand region is mostly
rural, depends on farming for their livelihood but have poor rainfall (average annual rainfall of 902 mm) leading to
widespread poverty. This results into rapidly drying hand pumps due to ground water depletion in backdrop of almost
absent culture of rain water harvesting. Women’s can be observed fetching water from long distances particularly in
summer season in many villages of Banda district.
Akhil Bhartiya Samaj Seva Sansthan (ABSSS), a local civil society organization with financial support from
WaterAid India started a learning project on low cost method of rapid recharge of ground water in rural areas
through roof top rain water harvesting. The project worked on using a cluster of houses for installation of roof top
rain water harvesting system and collecting the rain water from these cluster of houses to direct recharge through
abandoned dried up dug wells in the villages after installation of a filter in between. The objective of the project was to
quickly recharge the first strata of ground water so that the dried up wells are again recharged and can be used up as
safe source of water when deep bore hand pumps for drinking water supply goes dry in summer season thereby reduce
drudgery of women.
The key learnings of the project is that clustering the small roof tops in rural areas and direct recharge of dried up
and abandoned wells , we can recharge the wells in short term and develop them as sanitary well for safe source of
water supply particularly in summer months when deep bore hand pumps goes dry. The learnings from the project
help to achieve Sustainable Development Goal 6.1 in context of Banda and Bundhelkhand in rural and urban areas.

sensed data and geographic information systems. The methodology included the use of LISS-III data, topographic maps,
field work and use of other existing data. From this, land cover, the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI),
farmland, woodland and grassland maps at 1:50,000 were prepared for land desertification monitoring in the area. In the
study all data was entered into a GIS using ArcGIS software to perform land desertification monitoring. The results
indicate that land desertification in the area has been increasing. Although land desertification has to some extent been

also establish an example of why the summation of remote sensing with GIS is decisive for the monitoring of
environmental changes in arid and semi-arid regions, e.g. in land desertification monitoring in the Chitrakoot area.
However, land desertification monitoring using remote sensing and GIS still requires to be retain, refined for the purpose
of long-term monitoring and the management of fragile ecosystems in the area. Modeling and monitoring desertification
processes are of prime importance for the preservation of the ecosystem and human society. The desertification process
involves many typical phenomena which must be diagnosed and monitored through multi-disciplinary approaches of
physical, biological and social indicators.

(RCC) box girder bridges due to the effects of curvature. Three different types of sections i.e., single, double and triple
cells are considered in the analysis. These sections of span of 30 m are modelled using finite element based software
SAP2000 v14.0.0. In order to check the validity of the present results, a model, available in literature, is analyzed for
dead load bending moment only using linear static method of finite element analysis. A parametric study is carried out
for three different models with varying curvature by linear dynamic method of finite element analysis. The curvature
of bridge is varied from 0o
to 60o at an interval of 3o
. It is observed that the fundamental frequency is not varying
significantly for single and double cells sections, however it is decreased after 40o
of curvature in the case of triple cell
box girder section. This study may be useful to the engineers and designers in the design of RCC curved box girder
bridges.

them are heavily gifted with minerals and great source of livelihood. But According to the CSE(Centre of Sciences
and Engineering ),around 80% of Yamuna’s Pollution is due to raw sewage . Ganga is considered to be the most
polluted river in India approximately 1 billion litres of raw untreated sewage is dumped in ganga regularly. Ganga
contains 60,000 faecal coli form bacteria per 100ml, which is threat to not just humans but also to the river itself. In
short our rivers are on point of DEATH. Hence there is Project which is based on the idea of goals of sustainable
practices. Taking into the considerations of the pollution level in water bodies in order to rejuvenate and give rivers
back their life. So, I have made a structure good enough to reduce the amount of pollutant in water by 50% within
very less time. It will not need any out source for energy as it being self sufficient it drives its energy from solar panels
spread over it. Through the basic ways of making water pollutant free this structure can either be installed on an
existing canal, small river tributaries. It will not only improve the quality of river water but all the aspects related to it.
Like vegetation around, air pollution, soil pollution, improving ecological balance and recharging ground water. It is
low cost eco friendly structure and considering the present scenario the immediate need of the environment. We have
always cleaned water in sewage treatment plant where the cleaner potable water goes for human use and same semi
polluted water to the water bodies, here we are trying to return the cleaner water to the river back in order to
regenerate its property to clean itself. We can either make the whole new structure or it can be installed over the older
canals and most importantly near the source of the pollution. The structure and the procedure tend to clean the
suspended particle and toxic waste and improve the overall ecosystem.

induced noise is typically the single largest source of noise pollution in most of the urban areas. The paper aims at to
investigate the impact of urban morphology on road traffic noise distribution through 2D noise mapping. Major roads and
intersections of Okhla Industrial area has been covered in the present study. The noise monitoring has been carried out at
various preselected locations of Okhla Industrial Area, New Delhi, India. Thereafter, 2D noise mapping has been done
using hourly average noise levels for Okhla Industrial Area Phase-I, Phase-II and Phase-III. Monitored results of noise
levels indicate that the Okhla industrial area Phase-II has been more prone to noise pollution in comparison to Okhla
Phase-I and Phase-III. The 2D noise maps revealed that the noise levels remain maximum at the centre of the road and
reduce with the distance on either side. The reduction pattern along with noise levels can easily be visualize and evaluated
by using these maps. This type of study may become imperative for decision makers during adaptation of suitable remedial
measures.

microbial contamination in water. For assessment and monitoring of drinking water quality, a group of bacteria
commonly referred as fecal Coliforms is normally taken as indicator. Most predominantly used method for
assessment of bacteriological quality of water in Public Health Laboratories is MPN method which measures
bacterial presence as MPN/100 ml of sample. Another method very predominantly used for field determination of
Bacterial contamination is testing by H2S Vials, however this is just an indicative test and has high probability of
false negative and false positive results. The significance of bacteriological testing in ensuring the quality of
drinking water, warrants for comparative analysis of different methods available for it. In this context tests were
carried out to assess the efficacy of BioMed devices (InTrayTM Colorex TM ECC) based on Membrane Filtration
Technique method through which both E.coli and total coliform can be identified separately by distinctive color
characterization and then counting them in calculative form as colony forming unit i.e. CFU/100 ml of sample in
a single experiment. A comparative assessment of drinking water of different sources carried out in monsoon and
post monsoon have been done to observe the variation in the result by different method of estimation like H2S
vials, BioMed devices (InTrayTM Colorex TM ECC) and Traditional Membrane Filtration technique indicates that
InTrayTM Colorex TM ECC applications are economical, less time consuming. It is also easier to use than

of bridges came into existence. They may be like wooden, steel, masonry arches,RCC and prestressed concrete
bridges. Indian Roads Congress categories three types of the bridges lengthwise i.e. culverts up to 6.0 m, minor
bridges above 6.0 m to maximum 60.0 m length and major bridges above 60.0 m. In present scenario minor bridges
are provided over small rivers are symbol of development and prosperity of any region as most of the roads have to
cross small rivers at several places. Bridges are always been an important part of environment too because most of
cases water flowing below is used for drinking, irrigation and underground recharging. Specially in the alluvial
region of India spread from Punjab to West Bengal has peculiar nature. The soil is almost soft in nature mostly sand,
clay and silt, very fertile for vegetation.Water retention and movement condition arealso very high throughout the
year. The population of human being is very dense most part of this land asbeing culturable. There are several type of
water bodies exist in this region such as pond, small drain, small and medium rivers which fell into the big rivers like
Ganga, Yamuna, Ghahgra, Gomti and Sai etc. These rivers are originated from Himalayas or foot hills of Himalaya
and outfall at Bay of Bengal. More than 100 years, a road system for earthen track and pucca has been introduced for
traffic like chart, chariot and motorised vehicle. There were little number of bridges over major riversexist i.e. bridge
alone to cross over the river Ganga except in few places like Allahabad, Kanpur and Varanasi and over the Ghaghra
Algine bridge, Maghighat, Bhatni. But some bridges has constructed over small and medium rivers by Muslim local
rulers and business men which now become obsolete.It is found that most of the bridges are of masonry arches
wooden and trusses has insufficient water and carriage way. After independence the road network system has been
improved to meet out socioeconomic need of people the new bridges has been constructed with standard road width
and sufficient water way.Study has been conducted for existing new constructed bridge system over small river and
alluvial region of Uttar Pradesh to set guidance in future course of action in replacing and providing new bridges to
optimise the need of people.
For this purpose as a particular case for study of small river Reth having maximum discharge 106 cumecs traversing

human activities in both catchment and inland areas. Knowledge of recent and historical fluvial dynamics and related
structural and morphological changes on the land surface (e.g. Sedimentation, accumulation, movement of the river bed)
is a key factor in assessing the risk of flooding and vulnerability of human resources and structures. The
geomorphological approach for the study of sub-catchment of river Rapti in parts of Uttar Pradesh attains significance of
in view of dynamic changes in Rapti channel and activation of old channel and there water logging during rainy season
and consequent risk to the existing civil engineering projects. Satellite images are permanent pictorial records of the
terrain and remote sensing satellite have the ability to provide repetitative coverage of of the same area at a particular
interval of time. In this study satellite images of the underlying area of Rapti River make it possible to identify and
demarcate the fluvial features and the emergence of newer one switch active and old flood plains of Rapti River. The
emergence of new fluvial characteristics and the degradation of the earlier one is attributed to the channel separation or
otherwise successive channel migration caused by high discharge or floods. Lateral expansion, translation of meander
and cut-offs formation are responsible for altering the planform of the channel. As conclusion, it is shown that the
combined analysis of satellite data information will be very useful in the flood application domain, especially with respect
to risk assessment and vulnerability mapping.

every year. The strength and durability of concrete will be fully developed only if it is cured. Curing of concrete structure
is essential if it is to perform the intended function over the design life of the structure. Concrete is needed to be provided
with moisture for a minimum period of 28 days for good hydration and to attain desired strength. Any laxity in curing will
badly affect the strength and durability of concrete. An area like sea side, or the area where saline water is available for
the curing, is a scarcity of pure water where curing with normal water is difficult and in cases where large areas like
pavements have to be cured.
In this paper, we study the different tests analyzing the effects of mixing and curing concrete with saline seawater on the
compressive, tensile, flexural and bond strengths of concrete. For testing, three group of cube casted in the laboratory, in
which six cubes of concrete mixes were mixed and cured in fresh water, six cubes were mixed and cured in seawater,
while four cubes were mixed with fresh water and cured in seawater. These cubes were cured for 7, 14, 21, 28 days and

even disposing of all kinds of consumer goods. With the industrial revolution, mass production of goods started and
plastic seemed to be a cheaper and effective raw material. Today, every vital sector of the economy starting from
agriculture to packaging, automobile, building construction, communication or infotech has been virtually
revolutionised by the applications of plastics. Use of this non-biodegradable (according to recent studies, plastics
can stay unchanged for as long as 4500 years on earth) product is growing rapidly and the problem is what to do
with plastic-waste. Studies have linked the improper disposal of plastic to problems as distant as breast cancer,
reproductive problems in humans and animals, genital abnormalities and even a decline in human sperm count
and quality. If a ban is put on the use of plastics on emotional grounds, the real cost would be much higher, the
inconvenience much more, the chances of damage or contamination much greater. The risks to the family health
and safety would increase and, above all the environmental burden would be manifold. Hence the question is not
‘plastics vs no plastics’ but it is more concerned with the judicious use and re-use of plastic-waste.

groundwater. With the continuous increase in the water demand at industrial, agriculture and domestic level,
groundwater availability in the area is falling. Since the 1960s, numerical modeling is often used for prediction of
groundwater level and its condition in the concerning region. The aim of this paper is the use of numerical models to
simulate the groundwater flow. Solutions to many issues related to groundwater flow require mathematical modeling.
Commonly used models for solving groundwater flow equations - finite difference method (FDM) or finite element
method (FEM) are at present proven tools of hydro-geologists. The most popular MODFLOW based FDM algorithm has
been tested in thousands of cases and is now the standard in groundwater flow modeling. Apart from the known
advantages of numerical modeling based on FDM or FEM methods, their disadvantage might be the need of extensive
discretization of the modeled area and finding a compromise between the accuracy and complexity of the numerical
model. In this paper, a steady state groundwater model was developed using FDM and AEM methods. Before
conceptualization of the model, different input data was generated in a GIS environment whereas image classification
exercise was performed to compute the land use map of the area. From the results, it was found that AEM does not
require a fixed boundary condition and in FDM pumping wells are approximately located and averaged over the cell
which becomes a cause of inaccurate location of wells which does not give an accurate result for that cell. This study can
be very helpful for groundwater professionals in deciding the best suitable method for their study area.

Consumption of unfit drinking water may lead to various health hazards. These hazards may be due to presence of
pollutants like fluoride, nitrate, arsenic, salinity, TDS, heavy metals, etc. This paper highlights the various types of
contaminates in groundwater of the Indo-Gangetic Plains. It also highlights the mechanism of groundwater
contaminations which could be due to natural and/or anthropogenic activities. Various remedial measures are also
discussed that could be used to provide safe drinking water. It was realized that there are few drawbacks in the old
established technologies for these remedial measures, like the operating and purchasing of few techniques are
expensive and need electricity, few techniques have disposal problem of adsorbent, few of them need skilled persons
for operation and maintenance, etc. Thus, there is an alarming need to develop a new kind of filter for consumption

into three mutually perpendicular directions-the two horizontal directions (x and y) and the vertical direction (z). This
motion causes the structure to vibrate or shake in all three directions; the predominant direction of shaking is horizontal.
It is very essential to consider the effects of lateral loads induced from wind and earthquakes in the analysis of
reinforced concrete structures, especially for high-rise buildings. The basic intent of analysis for earthquake resistant
structures is that buildings should be able to resist minor earthquakes without damage. It resists moderate earthquakes
without structural damage but sometimes non-structural damage will resist major earthquakes without collapse the major
structure. To avoid collapse during a major earthquake, members must be ductile enough to absorb and dissipate energy
by post-elastic deformation. Redundancy in the structural system permits redistribution of internal forces in the failure of
key elements. When the primary element or system yields or fails, the lateral force certainly redistributed to a secondary
system to prevent progressive failure.
Several seismic learning of structure have been developed. This paper discusses actions that have been applied
for the dynamic study of irregular structures. In present study, a G+20 storey reinforced concrete composite.
The objectives of the present work is to study the behavior of a multi storied R C building irregular in plan

fibre are cut in prescribed ratio and used for the partial replacement of coarse aggregates.
In the proposed research, carbon fibres were mixed with the concrete to form a Rubberized concrete. For a rubberised
concrete mixture, all mix design parameters were kept constant as given by the IS-456 method except for the coarse
aggregate constituents. The coarse aggregate of the concrete was replaced by 5%, 10%, 15%, and 20% of its weight.
The fine aggregate was sieved using 2.36mm in order to pass through the holes of the carbon fibre to make a strong
contact with cement matrix.
From the some experimental results of compressive strength testing it was observed that both plain and rubberized
concrete developing similar strength over the curing period as expected. For all concrete mixtures, the rate of
compressive strength developed was high between 7 and 14 days and slow between 14 and 28 days. Also it was noted
that irrespective of curing period, there was a systematic reduction in compressive strength with increasing rubber
content of the composite. Some experimental investigation observed that high percentage carbon fibre mixed cylinders

indicate the climate variation in Himalaya region and its adverse effect on its climate. The present study is
participatory evaluation of village micro weather station.
Micro- weather station is an initiative of Shramyog, Dehradun based organization. The station is basically a
forum where village children learn about weather by collecting temperature and rain-fall data. In addition, the
forum provides other tool to know their surrounding including biodiversity, night sky, weather prediction etc.In
the present study we evaluated micro-weather stations of three villages of block Salt in Almora district of
Uttarakhand for a period of one year from Jan 2016 to April 2017 and three months in the year 2017 at four
villages. These micro weather stations have been established at Govt. schools located in these villages with the
aid of a non-profit NGO ‘Shramyog’. The trained school children (so called “BalManch”) under the
mentorship of a teacher and a member of Shramyog record the daily weather measurements temperature
average. This report shows the variations of temperature for four months and the temperature variation is
compared with Haldwani temperature model and the temp variation is in similar manner. The comparison
shows remarkable similarity between observed temperature records and model climatologically.

meeting human development goals while at the same time the waste material generated from industries and
other human activities are increasing substantially. As a result, sustainable development becomes a very
important aspect for preserving our ecosystem and securing it for generations to come while still moving
towards development. The sustainable development in the field of construction involves the use of non
conventional and innovative materials and recycling waste materials in order to compensate for the limited
availability of natural resources. Various studies and researches are being performed to find replacements for
conventionally used materials in preparation of cement, concrete and other building material such as bricks,
steel, timber wood etc. Proper studies and tests are required on the modified product made from nonconventional substitute materials to make sure we are not compromising with the stability and durability of the

horizontally curved concrete box-girder bridges. In this paper, a 27.4 m long simply supported RC box-girder bridge has
been considered to investigate the influence of skewness on box-girder with various curvatures. To this end, the central
curvature angle of the bridge has been varied from 0° to 48° at an interval of 12° and the skew angle is swept from 0° to
50° at an interval of 10°. Using the three-dimensional Finite element analysis software CsiBridge, maximum vertical
deflection under the webs of box-girder have been determined due to the IRC specified Class-70R tracked vehicular LL
moving over the bridge at constant speed at maximum eccentricity specified by Indian Road Congress. Assuming the
linear elastic behavior of the bridge, the live load has been distributed among the webs in the proportion of vertical
deflections. The study revealed that the live load distribution among the webs is significantly affected by the skewness in
conjunction with curvature. The results indicate that with increase in skewness, live load transferred to inner web
decreases for almost all the curvature angles.

has been scarcely documented and studied. The evidence found in the Terna River valley in the form of well-preserved
soft-sediment deformation structures are presented here. The structures include slumps, convoluted bedding, folds,
flame structures, dykes and faults. The structures formed are favoured by the water-saturated state of the sediments
combined with several earthquake shocks.
The structures are studied within the twenty kilometer zone of the identified epicenter of the earthquake because it is
believed through studies that more conspicuous structures will be found in close proximity of the epicenter.
These features are interpreted as having been triggered by the recent series of earthquakes, thus providing a
paleoseismic record of the Terna Fault System. A three dimensional digital elevation model drawn from elevation data
using remote sensing-GIS techniques and two dimensional profiles gives indication of topographic breaks and
location of the inferred fault.

Jal Choupal for Household Water Security in rural areas - SDG goal 6.1
Puneet Srivastava · WaterAid, Lucknow, India, IN
(Policy Commission) mentioned in its 2018 report that India is facing its ‘worst’ water crisis in
history and that demand for potable water will outstrip supply by 2030 if steps are not taken. Nearly
600 million Indians faced high to extreme water stress and about 2, 00,000 people died every year
due to inadequate access to safe water. Twenty-one cities, including Delhi, Bengaluru, Chennai and
Hyderabad will run out of groundwater by 2020, affecting 100 million people, the study noted. If
matters are to continue, there will be a 6% loss in the country’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP) by
2050, the report says.
To ensure rural water security in context of household water supply, WaterAid India started a
process of democratisation of water using Jal Choupal at village, Gram Panchayat, Block, District,
state and national levels from 2016-18 in a project based on transboundary water governance and
water security in Ganga Basin supported by The Asia Foundation . These Jal Choupal used the
modules on water budgeting, gender for water and climate change adaptation for water for preparing
people centric water security plans for six Gram Panchayats situated in six blocks of Kanpur and
Fatehpur districts along the Ganga River.
This paper presents the key learnings from these Jal Choupal and Water Security Plan and action
which might be hugely relevant to inform National Rural Drinking Water Programme (NRDWP)
policy and action.
The key learnings include the focus on source sustainability through use of rain water surface water
and ground water based on understanding of water quality needed for different purposes,
interconnected ness of ground water and surface water, reducing time taken in fetching water to
reduce drudgery and integrated approaches towards water sanitation, hygiene and health for
sustainable water security.

which leads to the flocculation and agglomeration of expansive soil. Lime-treated soil effectively increases the shear
strength, bearing capacity, durability and workability, improves compressibility of soil and chances of failure is
reduced. A fluctuation behaviour was observed on the influence of lime on soil permeability. However, the factors
affecting the permeability of the soil-lime mixture should be extensively studied. But there has a number of internal
disadvantages, such as carbonation, sulphate attack and environment impact. Magnesium oxide/hydroxide are thus
proposed as a suitable alternative stabilizer to overcome at least some of the disadvantages of using lime in soil

help in the economic improvement in the concrete mix. The concrete mixes were subjected to the test of compressive
strength for 7 – days and 28 – days with and without the use of sikament-600.
The study of the effects of different doses levels 0.5%, 1.0%, 1.5% and 2.0 % of sikament–600 was studied for
compressive strength of concrete mixes for 7-days and 28-days. The cubes of standard size 150mm X 150mm were
constructed and cured with good quality of water for the respective time period for avoiding the consequences on the
studied compressive strength.
Results based on this investigation show that the addition of a normal dose of the super plasticizer sikament–600
causes the better workability with the reduced amount of water and the compressive strength of the concrete mixes
gets increased when the water reduction takes place due to the addition of the sikament–600. Sikament–600 needs to
be added in lesser amount than the other admixtures so the results become economic with respect to the consumption
of super-plasticizer.

surface friction etc. Bituminous mixes classified based on nature of their gradation dense graded, semi-dense graded,
open graded, gap graded etc. Dense graded bituminous mixes are most commonly used in bituminous pavements as
binder course. Bituminous mixes consist of coarse aggregates, fine aggregates, filler and binder blended as per
Marshall Mix Design. As natural materials used for highway construction being exhaustible in nature and their
quantity is declining gradually that must be taken care of therefore present study investigate the suitability of marble
slurry as filler with conventional stone dust.
Marble processing unit produce marble slurry during processing of large size block into flat small size slab. This
Slurry is a suspension of marble fines in water, generated during processing, polishing etc. This slurry is no longer
use in industry and left in low laying area, in open fields, pits or anywhere else. In rainy season marble slurry
infiltrate into pores of soil with water which results into reduction in porosity of soil and increases alkinity of soil.
Fine marble dust suspends in the air and is slowly spread out through winds to the nearby area. It settles down on
crops and vegetation, thus severely threatening the ecology of the marble clusters. It causes respiratory ailments in the
nearby residential areas. When dumped along the catchment area of natural rain water, it results in contamination of
over ground water reservoirs and also causes drainage problem.
So the present study incorporates, use of marble slurry in dense bitumen macadam (DBM) grade I layer with stone
dust. DBM Gr-I layer properties can be improved with the incorporation of waste marble slurry. An experimental
program was conducted to evaluate Marshall Mix properties with marble slurry by using binder VG-40. Marshall
Method was adopted to find OBC with conventional stone dust. Samples were prepared and tested to check whether
they meet the Marshall mix parameter. Aggregate gradation has been taken as per MORTH specification for DBM
Grade-I. Three test specimens were prepared at each bitumen content. In first set, OBC for xi
Conventional bituminous concrete mix was found among varied binder content from 4%, 4.50%, 5.00%, 5.50% and
6.00% by wet of dry mix. In second set, marble slurry blended from 2.00%, 3.00%, 4.00%, 5.00% and 6.00% with
stone dust at determined OBC. At each marble content three specimen were prepared and tested. Properties of marble
slurry bitumen binder compared with MORTH specification. It is found that stability increases up to 4% marble
content and then start decrease up to 6.00% at marble content. Flow value continuously increases from 2.20 mm at
2% marble content to 3.30mm at 6% marble content. Bulk density increases from 2.612 gm/cc at marble content 2% to

copper ore. Presently there are limited uses of copper slag and unused quantity is dumped unattended in the landfills,
which create pollution in the environment. Particle size analysis of copper slag shows that it can be a substitute for
fine aggregate in the concrete during construction of rigid pavements. The principal objective of this research is to
assess the possibility of using copper slag in the construction of rigid pavements.
The cement concrete so investigated can be utilized as the wearing course of rigid pavements on the low volume roads.
Also concrete containing copper slag can be utilized for flooring of causeway, construction of median strip etc. Bulk
utilization of copper slag in the rigid pavements can reduce the cost of construction. It might be a step towards
sustainable construction of green highways.

effect of seismic (earthquake) loads while constructing any medium or high rise building. Hence to reduce this
adverse effect of earthquake loads on building and to increase the stability, shear walls are provided. Shear walls are
structural members that provide stability and resistance to the structure subjected to lateral forces generally wind and
seismic loads, especially in high rise buildings. They provide adequate strength and stiffness to the whole lateral
displacement of the structure due to laterally subjected loads. These structural members can be constructed from
reinforced concrete, timber/plywood and also from unreinforced masonry. They can be external or internal walls
around lift shafts or stairs and sometimes both. Shear walls have proved to be very successful in resisting strong
earthquake loads so far. In this paper we have aimed to study the effect of providing shear walls on stability and
deflection in 5 and 10 storey building frames and comparing it with the same building frames without shear walls
subjected to lateral forces. We have compared the same building frames in V earthquake zone. A 3-D analysis of
shear wall structures has been carried out using the STAAD.pro v8i software and results are presented.

and sealing cracks in cementitious materials. Mortar and concrete are most widely used building materials all over the
world as they are cheap, easily available and convenient to cast. But crack in these materials is a common
phenomenon during its service life due to many reasons, if unattended timely, will result in long-term structural
deterioration with high level of risk maintenance cost. The corrosion of reinforcement (steel bar) in concrete
structures is one of the most frequent reasons for civil infrastructure failure. Recently, there has been growing
interest in microbial self-healing process due to its potential in long lasting, efficient and environment-friendly crack
repair of concrete. Bacillus, a common soil bacterium can continuously precipitate calcium carbonate (calcite) under
favorable conditions. It is called microbiologically induced calcite precipitation (MICP). This Phenomenon comes
under a broader category of science called “bio-mineralization”.

process is being used worldwide in commercial, municipal and industrial applications. Since there is only 0.3% of
freshwater sources available which is potable, new methods are being developed in order to eradicate the water
demand worldwide in which the most popular method is desalination of seawater. The major advantage of using this
technique is that the ocean is practically limitless and drought proof and seawater desalination provides a logical
solution for the sustainable, long-term management of growing water demand.The main technologies used to perform
desalination are thermal or membrane separation. The first seawater desalination plant to be built is in Texas, United
States in 1961. Since then many countries have adopted the use of desalination which includes India too.Desalinating
the water is very costly but many efforts are being made nowadays to reduce the cost. It has also been considered not a
useful way to provide potable water since these plants consumes a surfeit amount of electricity which is generated by
water. In order to reduce the use of water to generate electricity one such effort is made by Saudi Arabia in which they
introduced the utilization of solar panels which does not require electricity produced by water.This paper discusses a
review study of the desalination techniques, plants being used worldwide and technologies currently used to minimize
the utilization of water to generate electricity.

in almost every structure around the world. Though small cracks in buildings does not imply that buildings or
structures are not in good shape, but it surely says that the structure is deteriorating. So what does self healing in
concrete does? It actually heals small cracks in concrete which eventually allows t increase the service life of a
structure. When cracks appear in a concrete structure, the reinforcement comes in contact with CO2 , water and other
chemicalspresent in the atmosphere. The process of repairing cracks when they form is termed as self healing
concrete. Self healing concrete is formed by using bacteria , therefore also called as bacterial concrete. Some types of
bacteria used are Bacillus Sphaericus, Bacillus Subtilis,etc.

waste management is the thrust area. The various waste materials, plastic waste and principle solid waste are of great
concern these leads to disposal crisis and environmental pollution. On the other side, road traffic is increasing. The
load bearing capacity of the roads should be increased. Our present work is helping to take care of both these aspects.
Plastic waste consists of carry bags, bottles, cups, and disposals. Commonly soil, aggregates, sand, bitumen can be
used in road construction. Natural materials are limited in nature, its quantity is increasing gradually. If our material
can be utilized in highway construction, the pollution, and waste problems may be decreased. The use of the modern
technology will not only strengthen the road construction but also increase the road life as well as will help to
decrease the quantity of waste in environment.

concrete (RCC.) in concrete technology. The system used for pre-stressing is defined by two methods that are, pretensioning & post-tensioning methods. The pre-stressing by pre & post tensioning device mechanism, introduced for
Anchoring the system in concrete structure element is used for structures. In modern type of Pre-stressing technique
electricity having low value of voltage and high current is adopted in anchoring for a concrete member & A Coating
of sulphur is applied on the steel bars working, as duct material before the casting of concrete member. When the
electricity is supplied in the structure, the sulphur gets melted due to generation of heat in the steel structure and
allowed them for pre-stressing. No provision is required for any duct. The steel alloy structure having high strength
could be anchored by tightening the nuts at both ends. The Pre-stressing in concrete structure is found more effective
then reinforced cement concrete (RCC) technology. So in this paper we will discuss about advanced technique of post
tensioning by replacing duct with sulphur coating on tendon bars.

and admixtures. Today many researches are ongoing into the use of Portland cement replacements, using many waste
materials like pulverized fly ash (PFA) and ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS). Like PFA and GGBS a
waste glass powder (GLP) is also used as a binder with partial replacement of cement which take some part of
reaction at the time of hydration, also it is act as a filler material. In this study, waste glass powders have been used as
replacements to the concrete ingredient i.e. cement and the mechanical properties like compressive strength are
measured. Also we were studied the size effect of glass powder on strength of concrete. For checking strength effect of
replacement of cement by glass powder, the cement is replaced at 10%, 20% and 30%. For study of size effect of glass
powder the powder is divided in to two grades one is glass powder having size less than 90 micron and another is glass
powder having particle size ranges from 90 micron to 150 micron. It is found from study, Initial strength gain is very
less due to addition of GLP on 7th day but it increases on the 28th day. It is found that 20% addition of GLP gives
higher strength. And also GLP size less than 90 micron is very effective in enhancement of strength.

fate, and transport models have been applied to investigate a wide variety of hydro geological conditions. Groundwater
flow models are used to calculate the rate and direction of movement of groundwater through aquifers and confining
units in the subsurface. Fate and transport models estimate the concentration of a chemical in groundwater
beginning at its point of introduction to the environment to locations down gradient of the source. Fate and transport
models require the development of a calibrated groundwater flow model or, at a minimum, an accurate determination
of the velocity and direction of groundwater flow that has been based on field data.
The present work presents a simple ground water modeling spreadsheet template developed in Excel with macros
written in Visual Basic for Applications (VBA). It is based on Finite Difference method and can be used to model an
aquifer of any shape and size. The given template can be expanded to build groundwater flow models of virtually
unlimited number of nodes. The final modelled heads, at each node, can be output as XYZ file, which can be girded
by any contouring software to produce contour maps and 3D surfaces. By using excel solver we can minimize the
error, thus get the optimal solution. Mat lab coding was used to show the effect of pumping on water table.

can essentially influence the strength of bituminous clearing materials. The examination explored the maturing
properties of altered bitumen entrance grade PG 30/40 and 60/70 (binder). The maturing was reproduced utilizing the
rolling thin film oven (RTFOT) and pressure aging vessel (PAV) for short term and long term maturing generation
and lying of black-top blends, however the genuine time of long term maturing in the field changes relying upon
clearing times and utilization .The exact tests, which incorporate softening point test & penetration test, were directed
to learn the binder consistency and furthermore the viscosity of bitumen was researched when maturing. The RTFOT
was led at 163˚C for 90 min, and PAV for 20 hrs. Results from the investigation demonstrated that maturing brought
about oxidation of the bitumen with increment in the firmness of the binder. It was seen that maturing expanded the
consistency, diminished the bitumen entrance and expanded the conditioning purpose of the changed bitumen. It
could be inferred that maturing builds hardness, in this way diminishing the infiltration and expanding the binder
relaxing point and consistency. At the point when the bitumen is age solidified, the black-top blend will wind up
fragile and its capacity to help traffic-instigated stresses and strains may altogether diminish. Weakening of the
asphalt by promptly actuated breaking may pursue. What's more, intemperate solidifying can likewise debilitate the
bond between the bitumen and total, bringing about loss of materials at the surface layer and produce debilitating of
the black-top blend. The low level of field maturing might be credited to low air voids in the black-top blends as well
as abrasion of bitumen oxidation by surface fixing or overlaying. Field maturing likewise impressively varied from
research facility maturing as far as the development of sulfoxides and carbonyl functionalities in bitumen. Contrasted
with the lab maturing, a lot more elevated amount of sulfoxides yet lower dimension of carbonyls was found for the
fasteners matured in the field. This recommends oxidation systems in the field may not be equivalent to in the lab
maturing tests. It was seen that maturing expanded the thickness, diminished the folio infiltration and expanded the
conditioning purpose of the altered bitumen. It could be presumed that maturing expands hardness, along these lines
diminishing the penetration & softening point of the binder mellowing point and consistency.
