معزز اسا تذہ کرام اور میرے طالب علم ساتھیو!
آج مجھے جس موضوع پر لب کشائی کا موقع فراہم کیا گیا ہے وہ ہے:’’اُمّیدبنو،تعمیر کرو سب مل کر پاکستان کی‘‘
صدرِذی وقار!
امید مایوسی کو جڑ سے کاٹ کر رکھ دیتی ہے۔ قنوطیّت ا ور نا امیدی کی فضاء میں نشوونما پانے والا شجرکبھی بارآور ثابت نہیں ہوتا، امید ا یک نوید ِجاں فزا ہے، اُمید کی کرن ظلمت کدہ جہاں میں نور ثابت ہوتی ہے، امید کے سہارے چلنے والاشخص کبھی نہ کبھی در منزل پرضرور دستک دیتا ہے۔
صدرِمحفل!
پاکستان ہمارا ملک ہے، پاکستان ہمارا وطن ہے، پاکستان ہماری پیاری سرزمین ہے، پاکستان ہماری جنت ہے، پاکستان کا ہر ذرّہ ہمیں جان سے بھی زیادہ پیارا ہے، پاکستان کے گل وگلستان پاکستان کے صحرا اور ریگستان ، پاکستان کے کھیت اور کھلیان ، پاکستان کے مزدور اور اور دہقان یہ سب ہمارے ہیں۔
صدرِذی وقار!
اس کی جامعات ہمیں زیورِ تعلیم سے مزیّن کرتی ہیں، اس کے محراب وممبرسے ہمارے لیے وعظ و نصیحت کی صدائیں بلند ہوتی ہیں ، اس کے کھیت وکھلیان ہمارے لئے رزق وافر کا انتظام و انصرام کرتے ہیں، اس کی عدالتیں ہمارے لیے انصاف کا بندوبست کرتی ہیں اس کے گلستان و چمنستان ہمارے لیے نکہت و باد بہاری کا سامان بہم پہنچاتے ہیں۔
جنابِ صدر!
تاجر ایماندار ہو گا تو تجارت معیاری ہوگی، منصف مجسمہ خلوص ہوگا تو عدالت کی کرسی اقربا پروری اور رشوت ستانی کی گرد سے صاف ہوگی ، واعظ وخطیب جب صاحب علم و عمل ہوگا تو محراب وممبر سے بلند ہونے والی آواز یں پُر تاثیر ہوںگی ، باغبان کی نیت ٹھیک ہوگی تو گلشنِ...
This study was undertaken to (i) identify the relationship among personality traits, self-esteem and desire for fame and (ii) to explore the relationship of personality traits and self-esteem in prediction of desire for fame in TikTok makers. The sample was recruited through the snowball technique and consisted of 200 TikTok makers of Pakistan. The following internationally standardized scales were used: The Big Five Inventory, The Rosenberg Self-esteem Scale (1965) and The Desire for Fame Scale. A significant positive correlation was found between (1) openness, (2) extroversion, (3) agreeableness, (4) conscientiousness, (5) self-esteem and (6) desire for fame. Additionally, neuroticism correlated negatively with the six mentioned variables; and self-esteem significantly predicted desire for fame. Females scored higher in extroversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness and self-esteem; whereas males scored higher in neuroticism. Also, higher levels of self-esteem and desire for fame were found in those who had increased frequency of making TikTok videos and those who belonged to big cities. In conclusion, personality traits, self-esteem and desire for fame significantly correlate with each other in TikTok makers. Researchers, social media activists, students, psychologists, and counselors can benefit from the findings of study.
Concrete is being utilized as construction material in the construction industry worldwide. Nevertheless, it has some inherited deficiencies in terms of tensile strength, flexural strength and durability; such deficiencies lead its limitation on application for repair and rehabilitation of existing structures. In order to improve the inbred limitation of concrete, additives like; blast furnace slag, fly ash, rice husk ash, silica flume and other pozzolans are being blended in its production. In fact, inclusion of these materials not only improves the concrete, but also utilizes the abundantly generated wastes thereby contributing to the environmental cleansing. In addition to that lowering of the construction cost and reduction of CO2 emission can be achieved to a relative extent. The utilization of RHA as a cementing material in concrete improves compressive and tensile strength of concrete to a greater extent. Polymeric compounds are being added in concrete to improve strength and durability, but limited utilization of such compounds is reported because of their cost. Hence a new composite, i.e. „Rice Husk Ash PolymerModified Concrete‟ (RHAPMC) is envisaged to use RHA as a supplementary cementing material so as to make concrete more economical and to mitigate some persistent environmental problems. Moreover, for enhancing impermeability of RHA blended concrete a re-dispersible polymer powder is added. The present study is mainly concerned with the techniques necessary to develop and characterize RHAPMC matrix. In the first phase of this study, cement is replaced with extracted locally available RHA which is obtained under different temperatures and burning durations. For in-depth characterization of the extracted RHA, in terms of chemical composition, loss on ignition and strength activity index has been carried out. It has been found that the extracted RHA at a temperature of 800oC for 2hr duration is more efficient as pozzolanic material. Chemical composition, strength activity index and loss on ignition meet the requirement of a pozzolanic material to be used in concrete as per ASTM C 618 standard. Cement was replaced with RHA (800oC-2hr) at dosages of 1 to 15% by weight of cement to study workability, compressive and tensile strength of concrete. A significant strength improvement at 10% replacement of cement with RHA is obvious in experimental outcome but impermeability decreases. In the second phase to improve the impermeability and to further increase strength of RHA blended concrete 1 to 15%dosages of re-dispersible polymer powder (RPP) was added. Workability, compressive strength, tensile strength, bond between steel and concrete, unit weight, water absorption, water permeability, carbonation effect and corrosion potential were investigated. Furthermore, to examine performance of RHAPMC matrix, standard size beams were cast with developed material and load carrying capacity, deflection and mode of failure were examined. It is found that beams cast with RHAPMC improved load carrying capacity with more deflection and prolonged ductile failure as compared to control beams. Based on the conducted research it can be concluded that the investigated physical, mechanical and durability properties of RHAPMC produced with 10% cement replacement by RHA and the inclusion of 5% RPP (by wt. of cement) along with 0.8% super plasticizer (by wt. of total binder) significantly improved than that of control concrete.
