Long-term Effects Of Synthetic Fibers On Concrete Pipes
(Civil & Environmental Engineering, 2014-07-14)
The studies undertaken by this research were to evaluate the long-term performance and durability of synthetic fiber-reinforced concrete pipes. The target long-term performance is for 9000 hours. Two sets of pipes 8 ft. ...
Public Private Partnership Pitfalls In Toll Roads
(Civil & Environmental Engineering, 2014-07-14)
Public-Private Partnership (PPP) has been one of the most effective concepts in developing infrastructure projects. By bringing in creative skills and management efficiency from business practice, private companies can ...
Stiffness Response Of Chemically Stabilized Sulfate Rich Soil Via Resonant Column Test
(Civil & Environmental Engineering, 2014-07-14)
Stabilization of expansive soils using lime and cement additives have been used by practitioners over the last few years. However, recent heaving and premature pavement failures in lime and cement-treated subgrades containing ...
Development Of A Database And Selection Model For Optimum Retaining Wall Construction, Cost And Production
(Civil & Environmental Engineering, 2014-07-14)
Retaining walls are earth retention elements that result essential in the majority of the construction projects for the overall project performance, as well as its budget and schedule. These elements constitute a key role ...
Development Of A Simplified Analytical Method To Estimate The Seismic Response Of Reinforced Concrete Frames With Solid Masonry Infills
(Civil & Environmental Engineering, 2014-07-14)
This thesis discusses the analysis of the lateral force-vs-drift relation of reinforced concrete (RC) frames with masonry infill panels under in-plane lateral loads. Such structures have been the topic of several studies ...
Effect Of Enhanced Leachate Recirculated (ELR) Landfill Operation And Gas Extraction On Greenhouse Gas Emission
(Civil & Environmental Engineering, 2014-07-14)
The bioreactor/ enhanced leachate recirculated (ELR) landfill operation with the addition of moisture/ leachate to the landfill, accelerate the process of landfill waste decomposition; and increase the generation of LFG ...

(Civil & Environmental Engineering, 2014-07-14)
This research aimed at evaluating the use of Dramix RC 65/35 CN steel fiber as an alternative to the conventional reinforcement in concrete pipes. The performance of steel fiber reinforced concrete pipes produced by ...
Role Of Coarse Soil Fraction On Resilient Moduli Properties Of Clayey Soil
(Civil & Environmental Engineering, 2014-07-14)
As one of the major methods of soil stabilization used in the present, mechanical stabilization improves a native soil by admixing a coarse and/or fine material. This method of soil stabilization aims to reach a composition ...
Evaluation Of Physico-mechanical Properties Of Clayey Soils Using Electrical Resistivity Imaging Technique
(Civil & Environmental Engineering, 2014-07-14)
Resistivity imaging (RI) is a promising approach to obtaining continuous profile of soil subsurface. This method offers simple technique to identify moisture variation and heterogeneity of the investigated area. However, ...
An Investigation Of Durability And Reliability Of HDPE Pipe For Large Diameter Water Transmission Applications
(Civil & Environmental Engineering, 2014-12)
The drinking water infrastructure in the North America requires a durable and reliable water transmission pipe material. Thus, it is important to study pipe performance, so that water utilities can benefit from cost-effective ...
