Testing & Design Life Modeling Of Polyurea Liners For Potable Water Pipes
(Civil & Environmental Engineering, 2010-07-19)
Currently, there are various renewal methods available for different applications, among which coatings and linings are most commonly used for the renewal of water pipes. Polyurea is a lining material applied to the interior ...
Group Resistance Of Recycled Plastic Pin In Sustainable Slope Stabilization
(Civil & Environmental Engineering, 2014-07-14)
Slope failure is a common phenomenon in areas with slope constructed on high plasticity clay and shallow slope failure is predominant in North Texas. The cumulative maintenance cost of minor slides is equal or greater than ...
Comparison Of The Installation Of Strand With Steel Bar Tendons In Anchored Drilled Shaft Wall
(Civil & Environmental Engineering, 2014-07-14)
Anchored drilled shaft walls are common in construction nowadays in the U.S. The use of either strand tendons or steel bar tendons as anchors in construction is approved. However, there is no information from a construction ...
Enhancing Effectiveness Of Aashto Type Prestressed Concrete Bridge Girder Through Fiber Reinforced Polymer Strengthening
(Civil & Environmental Engineering, 2014-07-14)
Fiber-reinforced polymers (FRP) are newly used materials by structuralengineers compared to concrete, steel, and wood. One area in which FRP is being used more and more is the strengthening of structurally deficient concrete ...
Volatile Organic Compound Emissions from Surface Coating Facilities: Characterization of Facilities, Estimation of Emission Rates, and Dispersion Modeling of Off-Site Impacts
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2013-08)
Surface coating facilities are major sources of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in urban areas. These VOCs can
contribute to ground-level ozone formation, and many are hazardous air pollutants (HAPs), including xylene, ...
