Abstract:The complexity of the nature of construction makes it one of the most adverse business that has ever existed. Construction projects have often suffered from poor quality, large waste, poor productivity, time and cost overruns for a long time. Many new and innovative management systems such as Just in Time (JIT), Quality Function Deployment (QFD) and Total Quality Management (TQM) have been introduced in construction to meet these challenges. It is considered that in order for the innovative management systems to function in reinforced concrete (RC) building construction, root cause of the problems should first be addressed. Literatures have established various factors affecting quality in RC building construction process especially in the design and construction phases. Research was carried out to determine whether the factors are significant in the Tanzanian context and the order in which the factors affect quality of RC building construction in Tanzania.

Abstract:The present investigation is based on the enhancement of the Reduced to the pole map of Samr El-Qaa area, North Eastern Desert, Egypt to delineate porphyry intrusions and junction zones. Detection of shear zones and porphyry structures from magnetic grids can be successfully used as a primary indication for areas of hydrothermal deposits in regional territories. Center for Exploration Targeting (CET) Grid enhancement was applied to magnetic data of Samr El-Qaa region for producing the map of structural complexity zones. Furthermore, the CET Porphyry technique was utilized to derive the likely near circular features. From the CET maps, it can clearly reveal that the major structural trends are N-S, NNE, NNW, NW and NE directions and the dike-like structures and porphyry intrusions in Samr El-Qaa area are aligned along these extracted trends. CET porphyry map showed the areas that can contain various occurrences of porphyry minerals in Samr El-Qaa area. The predicted positions of porphyry intrusion and junction regions can be used as primary maps for the mineral investigation of Samr El-Qaa territory.
