Indian standard code for civil engineering


What are IS Codes for Civil Engineering?

IS codes, also known as Indian Standard codes, are a collection of standards formulated by the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) for diverse aspects of civil engineering. These codes offer guidelines, specifications, and safety prerequisites for construction materials, design parameters, testing techniques, and construction practices. They serve as a reference to guarantee consistency, safety, and excellence in civil engineering projects throughout India.

List of IS Codes for Civil Engineering

IS Code for Cement and Concrete

IS 269:1989: Ordinary Portland cement, OPC 33


IS 383:1970: Coarse and Fine aggregates from natural sources for concrete

Laws of Motion – Class 11 Physics NCERT | Newton’s Three Laws, Formulas & Derivations

🧲 Laws of Motion – Class 11 Physics (NCERT) The Laws of Motion were given by Sir Isaac Newton and are fundamental to understanding force, motion, and mechanics in physics. This chapter from Class 11 NCERT explains how forces affect the motion of objects. 📘 Newton's First Law of Motion (Law of Inertia) Statement: A body remains at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless acted upon by an external force. 🔹 This law defines inertia – the natural tendency of objects to resist change in their motion. Inertia depends on mass. More mass → more inertia. 📌 Real-Life Example: You fall forward when a bus suddenly stops. 📘 Newton's Second Law of Motion Statement: The rate of change of momentum of an object is directly proportional to the applied force and takes place in the direction of the force. ✅ Derivation: Momentum, p = mv Rate of change of momentum = d(mv)/dt = m dv/dt = ma (if mass is constant) F = ma 📌 This is t...

Space-Time Fabric-what-how-why-science

 Space-Time Fabric: A Complete Overview The concept of space-time fabric originates from Albert Einstein’s General Theory of Relativity (1915). It describes how gravity is not just a force (as Newton thought) but rather the curvature of space and time caused by mass and energy. This explanation transformed our understanding of the universe. Read More Our Solar system Earth vs Mars Is it time travel possible! Space-Time Fabric The Unity of the Universe 1. What is Space-Time? The Four-Dimensional Continuum In classical physics, space and time were seen as separate entities: Space: A three-dimensional framework (length, width, height). Time: A separate, independent dimension that flows uniformly. However, Einstein’s Special Relativity (1905) showed that space and time are deeply linked, forming a four-dimensional continuum called space-time: 1. Three spatial dimensions (X, Y, Z – length, width, height). 2. One time dimension (T – the passage of time). Thus, events in the...
