4.       Design of integrated storm water drainage system of rural road Mr.Praful Shinkar Asst.Prof. http://www.ijsrd.com/articles/IJSRDV4I30863.pdf There is insufficient drainage facilities which could not passing through it. By collecting the last 10 years rainfall data thus we can measure the intensity of water flowing. There is the Chainage data which have every specific distance with water flow level. At high flow level there is need to provide efficient drainage system. Using this information, calculate the water flow discharge and make

the design of culvert at the specific area. Another option is

to remove surface water by permeable pavement surface at

shoulder. Which drain out the surface water to subgrade.

Reduction in lateral deflections is compared to a model without Outrigger system. Previous study also shows that outriggers are also capable of reducing the inter story drifts in composite buildings. At the end of Analysis, we found that, by using outrigger and belt truss deflection is reduced, Time period also get reduce which leads to increase in natural frequency of the structure. Graphical representations for Deflection is shown for All different heights of models which are 40-Storey, 60-Storey and 80-Storey.
12 BOX JACKING -AS BENEFICIAL CONSTRUCTION TOOL : PROBLEMS & REMEDIES Mr. Hiren D. Ramani   Asst. Prof. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/280777517_BOX_JACKING_-AS_BENEFICIAL_CONSTRUCTION_TOOL_PROBLEMS_REMEDIES Box jacking is a well-established means of engineering culverts or tunnels under rail embankments or waterways to accommodate road or rail traffic. It is a way of overcoming or circumventing geophysical impediments in order to build a road or rail networks. Many tunnels of note around the world have been built using the box jacking process and though technology has improved greatly in recent times the engineering capacity has been around for quite a while. From a technical viewpoint the box jacking process begins with the excavation of a launch area or sink pit where a secure backdrop can be constructed to facilitate the hydraulic jacking rams that will push the precast concrete box sections into place.
