Palmyra Fiber as Additional Materials on Solid Concrete Brick of Aggregate
ISSN : 20399340     EISSN : 20392117     DOI : 10.36941/mjss
The use of waste as an additional material on the building work was increasingly actively developed, such as straw, styrofoam, bagasse, cow manure. The key drivers of the use of waste is the potential for waste is increasing, due to the depletion of non-renewable resources. Papyrus rod diameter 60 cm, length 30 meters, has a volume of 5,652m3 as well as the edges of the Rods that can be used for construction with a thickness of 3 cm has a volume 0,942m3, Pith and fiber volume content of the stem 4,71m3/rod, then in one rod, there are 2 to 3 bunches each fruit bunches yield as much as 20 to 30 items for one harvest, by weight of fruit fiber 101.2 gram / fruit, Fiber characteristics are round and smooth is expected to reduce cracks in solid concrete brick and also can reduce the use of sand. This study aims to determine the compressive strength of the composition of the additional material of Rods fiber content and Fiber of palmyra fruit with a percentage 3%, 6% and 9%, mixing ratio; 1 cement and 5 sand in the manufacture of solid concrete brick. Rods fiber content used the average Ø1,031mm with a tensile strength of single fiber 39,305N / cm and fruit fiber to an average value Ø0,40mm with a tensile strength of single fiber 33,691N / cm. Making test specimen with a length of 20cm, width 10cm and thick 8cm. The test results of compressive strength after 14 days with the lowest value at 3% of additional material combination of fiber content of 6% fiber stem and fruit by 70,384Kg/cm²with a water content of 15,254% In weight position 2,935Kg as well as the highest value on the combination of additional material 0% rods fiber content and 3% fruit fiber by 98,821Kg/cm² with a water content of 15,031% In weight position 3,058Kg. While N (without additional material) with a compressive strength below the average id 63,704Kg/cm2 with water content of 10,167 in weight position 3,072Kg. Research result of solid concrete brick with additional material of rods fiber content and palmyra fruit fiber was included on the type B70, the average value of the compressive strength of 78.57 Kg / cm² (SNI-03-1348-1989) with a water content of <25%.

Abstract

Oral sources vary according to their specific use in a particular social arena. In this respect, the ethnographic encounter is acontext where significant discourses and narratives about the past are produced, both at the institutional and individual level. Even if lessimmediately evident, also written sources are the products of specific historical, political, and cultural agendas. This paper is intended asa methodological reflection on the socio-political construction of oral and written sources in the context of extensive fieldwork, carried outbetween 2008 and 2010, in a post-industrial area of the city of Milan, Italy known as Bicocca. Today, the University of Milano Bicocca, theTheatre Arcimboldi, CNR, and Siemens Italia, among others, occupy the site. However, until the 1980s, the same area hosted the PirelliIndustries, one of the major Italian plants for the production of plastics, tires, and cables. Even if the site has subsequently beentransformed into a “technological integrated area”, it is still permeated with both material and immaterial historical traces of its industrialpast. I consider here the historical archive of the Pirelli Industries and my conversations with former unionists and workers of the Pirelli; Ifocus on the accounts of the years 1968-1969, also known as the “Second Red Biennium” or the “Autunno Caldo”, an exceptional phaseof two years of intense demonstrations and strikes. I explore both archival sources and personal accounts, in short: the plurality of voicesthat are part of the site’s memory, past and present. My analysis will stress a specific methodological issue that is the need of amultidisciplinary approach in the context of my fieldwork research, given the malleability of the concept of memory itself and consideringthe fruitful collaboration between anthropology, oral history and the sociology of memory.

Abstract

This paper aims at giving some very important social and cultural aspects, which were seen during the beginning of the 20thcentury, especially during the transformation of Tirana as the capital of Albania in February 1920. What is seen as most important in thispaper is, the political systems of Albania especially after the acknowledgment of Albania as an indipendent country in the internationalarena and the social and cultural effects it brought in the social life. The most important aspects that will be treated in this paper are asfollows:a. The history of Tirana and various of its legendsb. The political transformations during the 20th Century and their influence in the social lifec. Population’s movements, Tirana as part of this movementd. The new comers in front of a new mentality, imposed by the area where they settled down.These are some of the main issues the albanian society faces in general and especially the inhabitants of Tirana, whose integrity ismostly affected by the economical, social and cultural aspects of the metropolitan capital, Tirana. In this paper, we will take intoconsideration as well the changes the albanians had to confront after the 1990. We are mentioning here those citizens who left the city tolive in the country, making here a comparison of the both situations, of the previous and later life they had. Despite the clash of mentality,lets hope to see a cohabitation and an adaptionin of ideas and integrity of inhabitants of Tirana and other big cities of Albania in a nondistant future.

Abstract

Even in our country there are made a number of offenses that remain tentative. The Penal Code implies that such works canbe classified likely every provided act, provided that “the person takes direct action to do it, but not complete the act due to certaincircumstances indipendently from his will”. The most frequent subject of judicial review and penal punishment are the attempts dealingwith the murder or injury of a person and rarely for theft of physical property of someone else. Considerably, the attempts are providedas facts in the functional activity of civilians or in certain ranks of the hierarchy within the public administration. But in these areas thecrime is concealed. Except the cases that are caught by the High State Control, the audits usually consider them “administrativeinfraction”, escaping from prosecution and judicial investigation by individuals who commit the attempts in this area. The focus of thisstudy is the analysis of some causes, the aspects of extension and the real punishment of “attempts”.

Abstract

The purpose of this paper was to give an information review of some higher plants as: Allium cepa, Tradescantia genus, Viciafaba, Pisum sativum, Zea mays, Nicotiana tabacum, Lycopersicon esculentum, Lemna minor, etc., which can be properly used as bioindicatorsfor assessing and predicting pollution toxicity and environmental changes in Albania. Plants, apart their structure andmetabolic priorities, can give essential information and data about the potential toxicity of substances, even when exposed in short termand low concentrations. They offer advantages against animals as bioindicators, because of the low cultivation cost, easier maintenance,ethically and esthetically acceptable handle. The plant assays can: be carried out under a wide range of environmental conditions, giveaccess to the cito/genotoxic potential of known/unknown simple substances or even complex mixtures (present in water, soil and air) andhave shown correlations with cytogenetic assays in mammals. In many sensitive species chemicals induce specific morphological andphyiological changes. Sometimes the same plant species may act as both indicator and accumulator for a special pollutant. Plants aredirect recipients of agro-toxics and therefore important material for environmental monitoring of places affected by such pollutants. Allabove mentioned higher plants are part of Albanian wild and cultivated vegetation, so as a conclusion plant toxicity screening methodscan provide a new approach, potentially applicable in Albania as a developing country, where chemical pollution monitoring is reallyexpensive. Additionally simple plant bio-tests can be included in Albanian curricula.

Abstract

The study will introduce a societal model of sustainable development and communication along Adriatic Peninsulas, usingtraditional &amp; modern motorways of seas bridging human values along Adriatic Peninsulas. Historically Adriatic Sea roots have linkedsocieties across Apennines and Balkan Peninsula coasts, bridging diverse social groups, ethnics, cultures, religious, and identities ofEurope and Asia. Under the EU perspectives Adriatic Motorways of the Seas are challenging communication of natural and humanvalues enhancing sustainable developments considering economy, society and environmental impacts. What should do contemporarysocieties along Adriatic coasts to exercise sustainable communication generating long term human wellbeing ? The Present CorridorEight , a Pan European , one – the ancient ” La Via Egnatia “ will be introduced as a case study pointing out societal possibilitiesexercising sustainable developments, linking Apennine with Western Balkans. Literature review, dates analyses, comparisons,interviews, questionnaires using web communications, graphics, etc, will be some methodological approaches finalizing the paperpresentation. I’ll introduce a new concept of communication bridging Apennines with Western Balkans under sustainable principles of EUexperiences, considering all the Italy as a western gate of Corridor Eight that benefits societies along Adriatic Peninsulas. Cost benefitseconomic activity, law carbon emissions, safe, clean and secure transport for passengers, using motorways of the Adriatic Sea andSeaports of Italy and Albania, should promote touristic activity, using La via Egnatia as a Trace of cultural heritages, archeological sites.Ill conclude the study pointing out that human and natural resources along Adriatic Sea Peninsulas support long term wellbeing’s, whilecontemporary society should use the triangle principles of sustainable development.

Abstract

The notion of the abuse of law it is a concept that reveals in private law in many jurisdictions. In relation to the European TaxLaw, the principle of the abuse of law it is consistent with the principles of primacy and effectiveness. Recently, the Court of Justice ofthe European Union has resorted to the concept quite often when dealing with the reach of the fundamental freedoms guaranteed by theTreaty of the European Union. The proposed paper applies the abuse of law concept to European Tax Law related to the question of thedirect taxation of cross border self-employers incomes. Of central importance here are the rules issued from the Court of Justice of theEuropean Union that legitimize, when assessing the absence of the harmonized rules in the field of the direct taxation, restrictivemeasures of the fundamental freedoms of establishment and to provide services in relation of the self-employers. The proposed paperstarts by exploring the context of the debate related to the abuse of law with respect to European Tax Law. The general elements of theabuse of law concept are then presented. It is an interpretative concept that looks at the dominant purpose of a particular legal provision.The proposed paper explores this concept with respect to potential abuses in relation of direct taxation of cross border self-employersconcerning the freedoms of establishment and to provide services. The proposed paper concludes with the conclusion that theadaptation of the restrictive measure of the freedoms of establishment and to provide services in relation of the direct taxation of crossborder self-employers are justified only in the general interest and for which need the proportionality principle.

Abstract

In this paper I would like to show, through a case-study analysis, how political, legal, media topics about Roma people, in Italy,are shaped by some negative believes and stereotypes. This frame lead to creating, in the common sense, the idea of danger that gobeyond real situation.The stereotype that I want to analyze – that is part of the elements that led to sentence for three Roma women overlast thirty years – is constituted by association of ideas between Roma woman and children’s kidnapper.

Abstract

Carried out after the model offered by the Soviet Union, the collectivization of agriculture in Romania has been achievedbetween 1949-1962. The subordination of the rural world by the Communist regime, through the collectivization of agriculture, wasachieved, on the one hand, by abolishing private ownership of land and the establishment of cooperative agricultural units (CollectiveAgricultural Farms, Agricultural Associations of Peasants, Agricultural Production Cooperative) and on the other hand, through a seriesof abuses of those responsible for collectivization (quotas, taxes, threats, intimidation, expulsion of children from school if their parentsdid not agree to join the collective farm household or firing the parents for the same reason). The collectivization of agriculture in Clujregion has experienced three distinct phases: 1949-1952 – the emergence of the first Collective Agricultural Farms and AgriculturalAssociations of Peasants; 1953-1958 - the period characterized by a slowdown in the process of collectivization and 1959-1962 - periodcharacterized by an intensification of the collectivization of agriculture, process perceptible through the number of families placed inthese units and also through the many Agricultural Associations of Peasants transformed or merged into Collective Agricultural Farms.This process of intensification of the collectivization is also visible through the merge of various Collective Agricultural Farms in order tofacilitate the establishment of larger agricultural units.
