This experiment was carried out to increase the shelf life and maintaining the quality of mango (Mangifera indica) fruits. There were two factors. Factor A: postharvest treatments with six levels (1. untreated (control), 2. washing with chlorine, 3. dipping (5 minutes) in calcium chloride (CaCl2), 4. dipping (5 minutes) in bavistin and rinse in clean water, 5. hot water treatment and 6. tap wat...

Despite the use of modern materials, clay bricks are reasonably preferable materials nowadays. However, the moo fetched and flexibility of clay bricks are not related with tall natural and feasible values, particularly with regard to crude fabric sources and fabricating processes. Agricultural world is growing fast, with increased rural arrive development and land cultivation leading to massive...

The exceptional structural strength and low cost of steel-concrete composite columns make them a popular choice for civil engineering structures. Numerous forms columns, including steel tubes filled with concrete, have been produced recently in response to various construction situations. Cold-formed tubular concrete filling higher ductility due their capacity withstand inner buckling postpone ...

Mechanical properties of the fibers extracted from the areca are determined and compared with the other known natural fiber coir. Further these Areca fibers were chemically treated and the effect of this treatment on fiber strength is studied. Areca fiber composite laminates were prepared with randomly distributed fibers in Maize stalk fine fiber and Phenol Formaldehyde. Composite laminates wer...

Vegetation mats for horticulture and landscaping usually consist of coconut fibre straw. They have hardly any available nutrients serve only as a carrier material plant growth. Water capacity is low. By incorporating raw sheep‘s wool, nutrients, such nitrogen, potassium, sulphur can positively influence the nutrient content material. storage water holding are increased by wool. In this study, t...
