The properties of 10 kinds of MgO clinker were investigated to know the effect of MgO clinker's porperties on corrosion of MgO-C brick. For MgO clinker, chemical composition, porosity, density, periclase grain size, and microstructure were examined, while slag corrosion resistance was examined for MgO-C brick. In MgO clinker pore size and it's distribution, periclase grain size, impurities composition and the composition of grain boundaries are more important factors to determine corrosion degree of MgO-C brick than density, potosity and MgO purity.

E-business is one of business innovations to get competitive advantage over other competing companies by utilizing information technology which can make to enhance the efficiencies and effectiveness through connecting one or several value activities. E-transformation is the process of business innovation to trans brick and motor companies to brick and click companies to accomodate e-business environments by means of digitalizing business strategy, business system, business process, and company cultures. In this results, the company can develop entirely new value chain of business and render enhanced services to customers. In this paper, I will represent several e-transformation evaluation models which are used to realize e-transformation(trans from brick and motor companies to brick and click companies). Also, I propose the strategic thrust model, which is composed of strategic targets (customer, suppliers, partners) and strategic tools(technology innovation, integration). This model is differentiated with evaluation models in that it can capture the rapidly changing business environments, especially strategic targets(customers, suppliers, partners).

Structural safety has always been a key preoccupation for engineers responsible for the design of civil engineering projects. One of the mechanisms of structural failure, which has gathered increasing attention over the past few decades, is referred to as 'progressive collapse' which happens when one or several structural members suddenly fail, whatever the cause (accident, attack, seismic loading(.Any weakness in design or construction of structural elements can induce the progressive collapse in structures, during seismic loading. Masonry infill panels have significant influence on structure response against the lateral load. Therefore in this paper, seismic performance and shear strength of R.C frames with brick infill panel under various lateral loading patterns are investigated. This evaluation is performed by nonlinear static analysis. The results provided important information for additional design guidance on seismic safety of RC frames with brick infill panel under progressive collapse.

Five type boxes, which are from brick, wood panel, charcoal-packed wood panel, plywood panel and charcoal-packed plywood panel, were prepared. Relationship of preservation characteristic of strawberry and change of relative humidity in the boxes were measured. Physical properties and industrial analysis of white charcoal used were also investigated. Physical Properties and industrial analysis showed that charcoal had: 1) $0.62-0.79g/cm^3$ of density, zero of refining degree and 8.6-9.4 of pH; and 2) 1.0-3.0% of moisture content, 1.9-2.9% of ash content, 3.9-5.0 of volatiles and 89.2-93.2% of fixed carbon, indicating high quality. During the experimental period, relative humidity was highest in the brick box and lowest in the charcoal-packed plywood panel box. Weight loss of strawberry was greatest in charcoal-packed wood Panel box and very little in brick box. In the boxes with charcoal, strawberry was preserved for 6 days without mold, but in brick box it was covered with mold in 3 days. From these results, it is suggested that charcoal-packed wood panel can be used for better ecomaterial.

The masonry structure is constructed by cement mortar binding material of brick objects and uses reinforced hardware (connected hardware or wall tie) together when building. However, over time, the corrosion of reinforced steel and the deterioration of joint mortar as well as bricks cause the risk of collapse. In particular, when the externally decorated brick wall is installed on the concrete girder for each floor, the angle bracket is not constructed or corroded, the full-layer weight load is applied to the wall of 0.5B, which is an example of full-scale or collapse. The purpose of this study is to provide numerical information on the reinforcement design by experimentally studying the structural performance of concrete reinforcement brackets that reinforce the vertical load of the exterior wall.

Masonry walls are of a complex (anisotropic) structure in terms of their mechanical properties. The mechanical properties of the walls are affected by the properties of the materials used in wall construction, joint thickness and the type of masonry bond. The carried-out studies, particularly in the seismic zones, have revealed that the most of the conventional masonry walls were constructed without considering any engineering approach. Along with that, large-scale damages were detected on such structural elements after major earthquake(s), and such damages were commonly occurred at the brick-joint interfaces. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of joint thickness and also type of mortar on the mechanical behavior of the masonry walls. For this aim, the brick masonry walls were constructed through examination of both the literature and the conventional masonry walls. In the construction process, a single-type of brick was combined with two different types of mortar: cement mortar and hydraulic lime mortar. Three different joint thicknesses were used for each mortar type; thus, a total of six masonry walls were constructed in the laboratory. The mechanical properties of brick and mortars, and also of the constructed walls were determined. As a conclusion, it can be stated that the failure mechanism of the brick masonry walls differed due to the mechanical properties of the mortars. The use of bed joint thickness not less than 20 mm is recommended in construction of conventional masonry walls in order to maintain the act of brick in conjunction with mortar under load.

The capital city of Himalayan Country Nepal, Kathmandu Valley is surrounded by consecutive high mountains, which limits the air distribution and mixing effects significantly. It in turn generates steady air flow pattern over a year except in monsoon season. The air shed in the Valley is easily trapped by the surrounded mountains and the inversion layer formulated as the cap. The $PM_{10}$ concentration was noticeably higher than the standard level (120 ${\mu}g/m^3$) in urban and suburban area of Kathmandu valley for all seasons except monsoon period. The Valley area experiences similar wind patterns (W, WWS, and S) for a year but the Easterly wind prevails only during the monsoon period. There was low and calm wind blows during the winter season. Because of this air flow structure, the air emission from various sources is accumulated within the valley air, high level of air pollution is frequently recorded with other air polluted cities over the world. In this Valley area, brick kilns are recognized as the major air pollution source followed by vehicles. Mostly Bull Trench Kiln (BKT), Hoffman Kiln and Vertical Shaft Brick Kiln (VSBK) are in operation for brick firing in Kathmandu valley where the fuels such as crushed coal, saw dust, and natural gas are used for processing bricks in this study. Tool for the Reduction and Assessment of Chemical and Other Environmental Impacts (TRACI) was used for screening and quantifying the potential impacts of air emission from firing fuels. The total Environmental Performance Score (EPS) was estimated and the EPS of coal was approximately 2.5 times higher than those of natural gas and saw dust. It is concluded that the crushed coal has more negative impact to the environment and human health than other fuel sources. Concerning the human health and environment point of view, alternative environment friendly firing fuel need to be used for brick industry in the kiln and the air pollution control devices also need to be applied for minimizing the air emissions from the kilns.
