The chisel plough is the most important soil preparation machinery for planting and its direct effect on the physical properties of the soil is reflected in the cultivated yield. The purpose of this research is to evaluate the performance of the local chisel plough through its positive effects on the physical properties of soil so as to tillage heavy clay soil, the most difficult types of soils, and then determine the time period for the disappearance of these effects and the return of the soil as it was prior to tillage and planting in terms of these physical properties. When planting the wheat crop under Syrian conditions. The actual field capacity of the plough was (1.01 hec/h) and field efficiency (79.53%), and consumed fuel (13.97 l/h). There was a positive change in the physical properties of the soil due to the use of the chisel plough and two perpendicular faces, where the bulk density of the soil decreased (23.8%) and moisture content from (30.85%) to (28.33%). While increasing the total soil porosity (13.26%) and air porosity (56.76% ) and void ratio (45.71%). It was found that the positive effects of the chisel disappear during one agricultural season. The process of tillage cannot be dispensed with the tillage to cultivate the wheat crop under the Syrian conditions (the Algab area). It must be done the traditional tillage (two faces), Where it was found that the soil return to its status before tillage and planting after (180) days, before the end of the planting season and before harvesting the wheat crop by about a month. It was found that some of the physical properties of the soil contributed to determining the time period for the return of the soil properties as they were prior to tillage. These include the bulk density of the soil, the total porosity of the soil and the void ratio that are directly affected by tillage. Some of the physical properties did not contribute to determining the time period for the return of soil properties as they were prior to tillage. They include both soil moisture content and air porosity, which are affected by tillage, but are more affected by climatic conditions such as temperature and rainfall.

The effect of clay soil treatment with two levels of tobacco west compost and organic fertilizer (15 and 30 ton/ h), in addition to mineral fertilizer treatment, with three replicates of each treatment on some physical properties (Aggregate size di stribution, main weight diameter, bulk density and porosity) and chemical properties (Organic carbon, humic and volvic acid and humification index for big and small soil aggregates was studied. The results showed that tobacco west compost and organic fertilizer were effective in increment of soil content of organic carbon, which reached (20 and 26%) for organic fertilizer, and (39 and 45%) for compost compared to the control, conducing to ameliorate soil physical properties, where The main weight diameter, stable aggregate rate and soil porosity were increased. Whereas, bulk density decreased significantly in both treatments compared to the control. Compost treatment affect soil physical properties more than organic fertilizer.Mineral fertilizer decreased soil content of organic carbon compared to the control. Humic and volvic acids contents were between 2.12 and 74.3 mg/kg aggregates in the control,and compost treatments alternatively in macro aggregates (> 2mm). Wile, volvic acid values were between 0.93 mg/kg in control for small aggregates (< 0.25), and 3.17 mg/kg aggregates in mineral fertilizer treatment for (0.25 – 2) aggregates. Humification index values were less than 2 in macro aggregates, while it was bigger than 2 in small aggregates.
A proper matching of agricultural machinery with properties of materials forms the essential requirements which lead to best performance of machine. To achieve that goal, availability of data and precision analysis on engineering and physical prop erties of these materials is required. This forms important and necessary data base for the design, development and structure of agricultural machinery and equipments, control and analysis of machines and determination of efficiency of machines. This research was carried out to study some engineering and physical properties of seeds of common Syrian crops to be used in the design and development of some agricultural machinery and equipments. Results provided the shapes and dimensions of cells of feeding devices for planting seeds of some crops namely, wheat, maize, lentil, pea, chick-pea, kidney bean, broad bean and cotton. In addition a set of empirical equations were established to be used to predict, with reasonable accuracy, the physical properties of crops seeds based on measurement of any of three dimensions (length, width and thickness).
This study was conducted during the 2011-2012 and 2012-2013 seasons in Abu-Jarash orchards area in Damascus to identify the effect of improved organic materials as sludge, manure and compost in improving some soil physical characteristics and whea t productivity. Results showed that the three types of organic material affected the physical characteristics of the studied soil. They decreased its bulk density, increased its total porosity and increased its ability of holding water at field capacity. Results also showed that the compost of city wastes was the best in improving soil physical properties. The three organic materials, particularly the sludge increased the total productivity of wheat (Sham3).
This research was conducted in 2016c, at the Zahid Western Research Station in Akkar Plain region of Tartous Governorate, the objective of this research is study the effect of non-conventional organic waste (compost of garbage, sewage sludge) and cow manure on the physical properties of clay soil in the region. Wastes was added to the soil at a rate of (0 - 10 - 20 – 30) t/ha, in order to determine the effect of the difference in the quantity added on physical properties of the soil and peanut productivity.
Economic growth and high competition have put a strong pressure on construction companies to improve their productivity and performance. Many studies on performance measurement have been carried out at the project level. Recently, the demand for perf ormance evaluation at the company level has increased. This paper aims to identify a set of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). A List of 20 potential performance indicators has been identified according to Balance Score Card (BSC) through a quantitative and qualitative analysis. We have obtained the required information about the relative importance of the indicators through interviews with six experts in the construction industry to determine the size of the relative importance of each indicator, on the grounds that a large number of performance indicators are difficult to measure and control. We have adopted the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) to identify fewer and more effective performance indicators. And we have used Expert Choice software to analyze expert answers. As a result, we have obtained 9 important indicators which can be directly used as indicators to measure and identify performance projects or as indicators within an integrated system, for performance measurement and tracking helps in improving the performance of construction projects in Syria.
