Use of vulcanized rubber in concrete as a partial replacement of coarse aggregates
One of the recommended solutions to solve this environmental problem is to incorporate rubber aggregates resulting from cutting worn tyres in the cement concretes .On this subject, several studies concerning the use of rubber aggregates resulting from crushing worn tyres were carried out. These research works showed that the benefits of associating rub- beer-concrete with high deformability and on the durability of these composites. Moreover, the benefit which we can gain from using the cement concretes for the roadways makes us think about multiplying the studies on the cement composites that incorporate rubber aggregates since the rigidity of the cement concretes can make it possible either to decrease the granular layer necessary to the asphalt road- way or to allow the use of less resistant concretes. This is the case with the use of concretes having a considerable part of rubber aggregates resulting from worn tyres. Even though there are many sustainable destinies for used tyres, the construction industry has shown little understanding of the potential of this waste. However, a number of promising possibilities have been emerging that have some weight in the market: asphalt, kinder- garden and sports area pavements, impact barriers on roads, and breakwaters. These applications prove how interesting it is to pursue new research fields that could show how end- of-life tyres can be reused competitively in the sector.

Biometric fingerprint enabled secure communication using Arduino and RF technology
The undertaking is intended to send verified messages by utilizing an encryption from a PC console utilizing biometric scanner associated with the transmitting unit by means of RF technology. The message is recovered at the recipient end only when the approved personnel’s fingerprint matches with the database utilized by the transmitter. In this manner, complete privacy is kept up in this correspondence procedure. The message composed in by the client is transmitted to the receiving end through RF transmitter. At the less than desirable end the RF beneficiary is coordinated with a fingerprint scanner and show framework. Client at accepting end can just view the message if the fingerprint matches. For instance, in military tasks, security is of foremost significance. So, when there is a requirement for sending any private message, one can type the message through a keypad/PC console interfaced with the framework including a fingerprint authentication, an Arduino NANO and a RF transmitting module.

Disaster Management – Planning and Mitigation
It is quite widely recognized that in many third world countries, disaster mitigation programmes implemented by government agencies suffer from a series of defects and distortions. These include failure to address vulnerability, failure to involve people, and susceptibility to manipulation. The casual attitude towards the natural disasters whether recurrent ones or non-recurrent ones is an intricate manifestation of an internal hope people have about their lives and homes, combined with a lack of understanding of physical relations that control the severity, magnitude and intensity regarding the development of natural disasters. And hence, mitigation of natural disasters should properly be planned and monitored with the main objectives of better preparedness for meeting any situation in terms of relief, rescue and rehabilitation.

IoT (Internet of Things) in projects management
The research study is aiming at determining the impact of implementing IoT (Internet of Things) in project managements for reducing the risks as well as the costs of the project management. It is also aiming at focusing on characteristics related to the implementation of IoT in project management. The research question considered is reflecting what is the impact of IoT in projects management? The researcher had reviewed different articles from other researchers' works. With the analysis of the different article, the researcher is enabled to gaining detailed information related to the implementation of IoT in the projects management. In this section, the researcher had focused on the IoT enabling technologies and the technical regulatory characteristics present in the project management. These are seen to be considered as it is enabling the researcher is focusing on the benefits of the IoT. Apart from this, the implementation of IoT in the project management is discussed which is showing that projects can be carried out at a much faster speed. In this research, the researcher had considered secondary data analysis process. It is enabling the researcher in determining the minimum requirements needed for setting the IoT. It will be facilitating the researcher in determining the efficiency and the effectiveness of implementing IoT in project management. The identification of benefits gained by the organization with the implementation of IoT is also seen in this context. The characteristics of the IoT are considered which is enabling the project managers in focusing on learning about the project participants. This illustrates the projection of private data, confirmation of the accuracy of the data collected, and the creative thinking processes. With considering the increase in implementation of IoT, the importance of IoT in managing the devices and the projects carried out in different fields are analysed. The strengths and weaknesses are highlighted in the recommendation section. It is surrounding the improvement of the regulatory policies for increasing the effective organization of the project management processes. The IoT regulatory policy is seen to be playing an important role in executing the registration and documentation processes. Also in this section, the researcher had focused on the project management systems as well as the regulatory authority is playing an important role in improving the frameworks that should be followed. The regulatory authority is including the vital tasks that should be carried out for protecting the big data. In the end, it is discussed by the researcher in the conclusion section is that the acceleration of growth of IoT is devising increase in the pressure on the organization. It is leading to the development of technologies present in project management. The policy, framework and the guidelines should be focused in every area present under the IoT umbrella. At present time, the improvement in the project management carried out by the project managers is essential. It will be helping in removing the risks present in the project as well as the project monitoring and governance is essential

Energy recovery from solid waste and sustainable leachate treatment at waste-processing units
Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) Bangalore to set up leachate treatment plants at two waste processing units - Kannahalli on Magadi Road and Chikkanagamangala near Anekal taluk. The treatment plants once set up, removes ammonia and other contaminants from the leachate, formed when the rainwater mixes with waste. We observed that "Leachate is dangerous and can deter vegetation on the land. BBMP officials took a decision to set up plants to get rid of leachate and save the soil which it gets mixed with. The treated effluent can be utilized in many ways like washing, industries among others." The civic agency will send the proposal to the Urban Development Department and once approved, it has taken up by the empowered SWM panel set up by the Palike.

Alternative usage of stone dust and ceramic waste and minimization of cost of construction materials
Observing the results, strength aspects of ceramic waste aggregate concrete is well within the permissible limits and ideal replacement level of ceramic waste is 20% and 40%.Water absorption of ceramic waste aggregate was 0.18% higher than that of natural aggregate (0.10%), due to the opening of pore structure during crushing and chiselling. Even after crushing and chiselling, few cracks were observed on surface of ceramic waste. For these reasons water absorption was little more than that of the natural aggregate. The 3 and 28 days compressive strength was found to range from 24.57-43.33N/mm2 for different mixes respectively. The above strength properties were found to compare closely with normal concrete. The proportion of 17% natural sand to 24% quarry dust produced higher values of compressive strength. For the same proportion of 17% natural sand and 24% quarry dust at 1:1.41:2.38 mix and 0.47 water/cement ratio, a logarithmic model has been developed for predicting the compressive strength of concrete between 0 and 28 days.
