The lack of specialized regulation on multimodal transport and the failure to provide regulatory and policy basis for unified coordination between the military and civil transportation sections and between the transportation sections in the military system have become urgent tasks in the development of multimodal transport in Chinese military transportation
It worked actively to build a military transportation and support system, which "uniformly organizes military, governmental and civil transportation organizations, makes comprehensive use of road, water and air transports and combines functions of transportation, emergent maintenance and security protection".
The favorable development of social multimodal transport industry helps Chinese military forces to promote comprehensive construction of multimodal transport in military transportation in light of the "military-civil integration" mode [6].
The development of multimodal transport is of great strategic values and practical significance for Chinese military forces to integrate their transportation resources, to reduce costs for logistic supports, to improve logistic effectiveness, and to realize "military-civil" integrated development of military transportation.

Civil Construction is recognized as one of the most important activities for social economic development, and, conversely, behaves as a great generator of environmental impacts, whether by the consumption of natural resources, by landscape modification or by the waste generation.
The main motivation of this research lies in continuing the research on the use of founding sand in a component of civil construction used, so the main purpose of the paper is to construct and evaluate the use of concrete tiles using cast sand as we realize that It is quite common to find houses covered with concrete tiles, as that they give greater resistance to the roof avoiding them being carried by strong winds that happen frequently.
The bench scale tests were carried out in the Casa Forte tile industry in Santo Ângelo and the tests in the civil engineering laboratories of Uri - Integrated Regional University of Alto Uruguai and Missões, Research Unit, located in Santo Ângelo - RS, This was considered the third step.
This work collaborates with researches and uses sand casting in other civil construction artifacts [10,11,12].

Materials for civil engineering are in danger of damage coming from several degradative factors: alkalis, as mortar contains relatively big amount of basic calcium hydroxide, solar radiation, humidity, sea water in the seaside areas, temperature fluctuations etc.
(2) Where E’ – equivalent Young’s modulus, ε’ – equivalent strain in logarithmic strain measure, ε – engineering strain, σ – nominal tensile stress (force divided by the initial cross-section).
A – both Young’s modulus obtained directly from the measurement (initial) and the equivalent Young’s modulus from calculations (Eq. 1 and Eq. 2), B – maximal nominal stress, C –ultimate engineering strain, D – maximal work.
Conclusions Presented durability tests of PS polyurethane, using as matrix or adhesive in composite strengthening, indicate that this kind of flexible bonding can be resistant to the considered corrosive factors present in civil engineering.
Results presented above indicate that: · It is safe to use PS polyurethane in the environments typical for civil engineering, including a wide range of temperatures, humidity, and basic character of mortars, · The composites obtained with PS polyurethane should fulfill their role in even in elevated temperature, as the material is able to withstand up to 200ºC, · In the case of fire, the outer side of the polymer would lose its mechanical properties above 200 ºC but the rapidly expanding shell may create the thermic insulation that would protect the composite temporarily, · The PS polyurethane seems to be a considerable matrix for composites for strengthening the masonry structures that may protect them from the damage, caused by the fragility of masonry constructions, in the different environmental conditions for a long time, even during extreme loadings, e.g. an earthquake (see [11]), · The protection should also be safe to use for the constructions of heritage, as it is easily
