An analysis to determine the most suitable type of multimedia used on Facebook social media platform
ABSTRACT Humans have always had the need to communicate with one another. We use communication as a means of social interactions. Communication is vital to building relationships. Modern forms of communication allow users to stay in touch with friends and family from anywhere in the world. The need for improvement in communication led to the development of Printing Press, Telegraph, fax machine, telephone, Radio, Television, and satellite. In the 20th century, the internet was born which allowed for the creation of social media platforms. The first recognizable social media site called the SixDegrees.com, followed by AOL instant messenger, Friendster, LinkedIn, MySpace, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat e.t.c. Multimedia is a combination of text, audio, images, animations, video and interactive content. Multimedia can be recorded, played, displayed, interacted with or accessed by information content processing devices. Social media is defined as a platform, websites, and applications that enable users to communicate create and share content. Social media uses multimedia to create content and enable users to communicate and share information. Facebook is a social networking site that allows users to post comments, share photographs, chat live, watch videos and post links to news and other interesting content on the web. The explosive growth of multimedia on social media platforms has revolutionized interactions. Before users only chat and read the information on social media platforms but nowadays, users have a very high engagement with the different forms of multimedia like sharing, liking, disliking, commenting, tagging e.t.c. This research is aimed at finding the most preferred type of multimedia on the platform of Facebook from the users perspective. 1. To determine the most favorite form of multimedia used by users of Facebook. 2. To find the reason for selecting the most preferred multimedia form. 3. To measure the time spent by users on a particular form of multimedia on Facebook. 4. To let users know the amount of time they spent on the Facebook social media platform. For the research methodology, a questionnaire was developed and primary data were collected from respondents. A total of 200 questionnaires were distributed in Jaipur city of Rajasthan in India. A total of 185 participants responded to the questionnaires. The data collected was entered and analyzed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences SPSS software. The research result found: a. The age bracket that mostly uses Facebook is 24 to 34 years. b. The overall most preferred type of multimedia on Facebook is text. c. All the different types of multimedia video, text, images, and audio can be all used for sport, education, politics, and entertainment. d.

Mechanical behavior and durability of steel fiber reinforced concrete made with recycled material
Concrete is a composite material consisting of Mortar and aggregate. The main problem in the concrete is the formation of cracks. In this study, to control the cracks into the concrete steel fibers are added. Now a day the use of PET (polyethylene terephthylate) is highly recommended. This thesis has studied the incorporation of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) waste in concrete as a substitute for natural coarse aggregate and has found an optimal combination of components that produces a useful concrete product. The waste PET was first reduced in coarse aggregate by shredding and then combined with the rest of the components. A traditional method will use for the partial replacement of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) as coarse aggregate to its weight with the addition of steel fiber, which is 1%, 1.5% and 2% by volume in plain concrete. Specimens of specified are used for testing, which is designed according to the Indian standard code. Compressive, tensile and flexural strength of this specimen compared to the control sample and then 5%, 10%, 15% and 20% of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) are partially replaced as coarse aggregate samples. Furthermore compressive, tensile and flexural strength of this new specimen compared to the control sample. The material used in this experiments are; Cement, fine aggregate, coarse aggregate, PET as a partial replacement of course aggregate and water. Therefore, the main objective of this study is to use PET as a partial replacement of course aggregate in concrete. The safety, durability, and stability of the structure depend to a large extent on the properties of the concrete and, therefore, it is imperative to prepare the concrete with adequate strength.
