In this study, first by surveythe parameters affecting the compressive strength, such as water to cement ratio, cementgrade, silica fume to cement percentage, and the various ratios oflight weight aggregate LECA, to total aggregate, Taguchi method is used, to test 9 mix designsobtained the mix design optimization. Since lightweight concrete is brittle like normal concrete, to resolve this probl...

yoghurt ice cream (yic) or frozen yoghurt dessert can be regarded as a healthy alternative to plain ice cream. also use of soy derived products in food formulations can lead to the development of products of improved nutritional and health promoting values. yoghurt ice cream was prepared using full-fat soy flour to substitute 55% of non fat dry milk content. product formulation comprised of 12%...

Calcium carbide residue (CCR) is a waste by-product from acetylene gas production. The main component of CCR is Ca(OH)₂, which can react with siliceous materials through pozzolanic reactions, resulting in a product similar to those obtained from the cement hydration process. Thus, it is possible to use CCR as a substitute for Portland cement in concrete. In this research, we synthesized CCR and...
