Roads are major consumers of aggregate and the influence of aggregate cost is more in total construction cost of the roads. In order to reduce the cost of construction of roads, the possibility of using building waste as aggregate in subbase and base course has been studied. Experimental studies were carried out to determine the engineering properties of the recycled aggregate and compared with conventional aggregate. It has been observed that the building debris can be effectively used as road material as it is satisfying the MoRTH (ministry of road transport&highways) requirements. Brick aggregate was found to be relatively soft compared with other recycled aggregate which may be used as sub-base course.Keywords

Visakhapatnam urban development authority (VUDA) has a jurisdiction of 1721 sq. kms and covers a population of 22.02 lakhs. According to official records about 5 lakh vehicles are currently plying on Visakhapatnam roads. Total traffic volume in Visakhapatnam district was recorded as 4, 64,780 and 2, 63,646 were recorded in Visakhapatnam city, which is 56.72% of the total traffic volume of the district. In the absence of effective planning and traffic management of the city, the current road infrastructure cannot cater the future needs of the city mobility. At all the major junctions of the city, volumes of pedestrian and vehicular traffic increased significantly. In the present work it is proposed to study the traffic scenario at major junctions of Visakhapatnam city and necessary improvements are suggested to increase the mobility.Keywords

Objectives: To study the structural behavior of the components of berthing structure subjected to variable stack load with and without mooring force conditions. Methods/Statistical Analysis: Linear static analysis was performed on the berthing structure subjected to variable stack load with and without mooring effects. Based on this study, equations related to bending moment and axial force of structural members of berthing structure has been obtained. A Monte Carlo simulation method was adopted for generation of random numbers using MATLAB software. From the obtained results, analysis was performed to obtain characteristics of load effects of the components of the berthing structure. Findings: The influence of variable Stack load has an effect on the Bending Moment and Axial Force of structural components of the berthing structure. It was also found that there was a significant variation of results of load effects between with and without mooring force condition in case of Vertical Pile (VP) but there was no significant variation of results of load effects on Main Cross Head Beam (MCHB), T-shaped Diaphragm Wall (TDW) and Raker Pile (RP) due to stack load. Applications/ Improvement: This study helps to predict the behavior of berthing structure subjected to varying stack load caused due to lack of awareness of end user on the loading specifications that have been assessed by the designerKeywords
