  What is Contract? Contract is an agreement enforced by Law. In lay-man's term Contract is an agreement where one party gives proposal and the other party accepts it. Without the enforcement of Law the Contract becomes Void i.e. it can be avoided by any of the parties. In Public Works Department Contract means written Undertaking of Execution of work or Supply of Materials or for performance of any service accepted and registered by the competent authority on behalf of the Union or State Authority. Essentials of Contract 1. Contract shall be made by two or more competent parties. 2. It shall be made with the free consent of each and every parties involved. 3. The Contract should have a definite proposal. 4. The contract should be made in such a way that the considerations and objects are lawful. Types of Contracts 1. Item Rate Contract 2. Labor Rate Contract 3. Percentage Rate Contract 4. Lump-Sum Contract 5. Materials Supply Contract 6. Piece Work Agreement It...

  What is binding wire? Binding wire is used for the purpose of tying applications in the construction field. It is used widely in the construction sector for tying the rebars at the joints so as to keep the structure intact. Binding wire is also called annealed wire and is made of mild steel. Annealing endows it with the properties like flexibility and softness, required for its main use. Binding wire is available in different diameters ranging – 0.61 mm to 1.22 mm. the application of binding wire requires it to be flexible enough so as to tie easily and strong enough so as to hold the joint in place. There are various methods used for tying the joints. Best type of binding wires are generally – Black Annealed Baling Wire Stainless Steel Binding Wire  (SUS304 Wire Soft and Bright)

Introduction Throughout the world there are so many living areas which are located on the coastal area and islands. So, the process of building construction work have the heavy trend to work with seawater, therefore making use of seawater is an interesting innovation. Most important aspect of reinforced cement concrete is the compressive strength then the bond strength between steel reinforcement bars and concrete. Also, the water cement ratio (w/c) plays a vital role in concrete structures exposed in coastal areas.Portland composite cement is one of the largest and newest used cement in concrete by today. In the research Adnan, Herman Parung, M. W. Tjaronge, Rudy Djamaluddin aimed to study and utilize seawater in concrete works and the concrete property difference between normal water concrete and seawater concrete. The method used in the research in totally experiment based. From the year of 2007 many of researchers have done so many studies on bond strength between steel and concret...
