TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT

It is necessary to rearrange traffic pattern on existing streets & reduce accidents.

Some human activities are responsible for many disgusting accidents and rest are for animals,road construction,breakfailure etc.

Advantages

1.Accident reduces

2.Journey time reduces

3.Increases vehicle capacity

4.Closed side streets are used for parking

5.At morning time max. no of lanes are reserved taffic moving towards the city centre.

6.At evening time,max no. of lanes are reserved for traffic moving away from city centre.

7.Flow is smoother.

Disadvantages

1.Need traffic signal

2.Creates congested condition

3.Disturbs peace in residental area

4.First moving vehicle may face accident

5.Increases traffic flow in open street

6.Regular maintanance of TRAFFIC signals.

I NDIA,SWITZERLAND sign pact to swap bank info :- Now india is ready to demolish black money.India has done well to sign a pact with Switzerland for automatic exchange of information(AEOI) to access details on Indians hiddi ng their money in SWISS BANK.Both countries will adopt rules prescribed by the Organisational for economic Co-operation and development (OECD) to obtain and share financial information ,helping established audit trails.AEOI will be implemented based on Multilateral Competent Authority Agreement (MCAA) which is based on the international standard for the exchange of information developed by the OEC D. AEOI is powerful tool to identify early enough undesirable trends in cross-border transaction and can be helpful in identifying errant taxpayers and certain schemes to take remedial action through enforcement and policy intervention. Switzerland used to be known for very strong secrecy walls till a fe...

What is earthquake and it's effect?

Earth quake An earthquake is the result of a sudden release of energy in the earth’s crust that creates seismic waves. The seismicity, seismism or seismic activity of an area refers to the frequency, type and size of earthquakes experienced over a period of time. Earthquakes are measured using observation from seismometers. The moment magnitude is the most common scale on which earthquakes larger than approximately 5 are reported for the entire globe. The most recent large earthquake of magnitude 9.0 or large was a 9.0 magnitude earthquake in japan In 2011(as of march 2011),and it was the Japanese earthquake since records began. One of the most devastating earthquake in recorded history occurred on 23 January 1556 in the Shaanxi province, China,Killing more than 830,000 people. Fault or...

WHAT IS FOUNDATION ? It is the engineering field of study which is applied to the design of those structures which support other structures, most typically buildings, bridges or transportation infrastructure. It is at the periphery of Civil, Structural and Geotechnical Engineering disciplines and has distinct focus on soil-structure interaction. It is also called as ground sill, which transfers loads to the ground. It is generally categorized into two types i.e 1.Shallow foundation 2.Deep foundation 1.SHALLOW FOUNDATION:- A shallow foundation is a type of foundation which transfers building loads to the earth very near the surface, rather than to a subsurface layer or a range of depths as does a deep foundation. 2.DEEP FOUNDATION:- A deep foundation is a type of foundation which transfers building loads to the earth farther down...
