DEVELOPING AN EARLY WARNING SYSTEM OF HIGHWAY SLOPE FAILURE BASED ON IN-SITU HYDRAULIC CONDUCTIVITY OF SOIL
Gupta, Alinda (2023-08-15)Highway slope failure is globally a momentous issue. Highway slope failure poses a significant issue in transportation infrastructure. Several factors can contribute to slope failures, including geological conditions, ... -
Effect of Impurities in Plastic Waste on the Performance of Plastic road
Gupta, Niloy (2023-08-17)**Please note that the full text is embargoed until 08/01/2025** Plastic waste generation has become a global concern, with a large portion of plastics ending up in landfills. China's recent decision to stop importing waste ... -
EFFECT OF MODIFIED MOISTURE BARRIER IN MITIGATING PAVEMENT DISTRESSES DUE TO EXPANSIVE SUBGRADE
Pandey, Pratibha; 0000-0001-8908-1326 (2021-05-07)Surficial distresses in roadways of Texas are very common due to presence of high plastic clayey soil in the subgrade. Increased sensitivity of high plastic clay towards seasonal moisture change results in repeated swelling ... -
Evaluation and Prediction of Energy Potential of Landfill Mined Solid Waste
Ahmed, Rakib (2019-08-12)Landfilling is the most popular waste disposal system worldwide; however, with increasing scarcity of materials, increases in land values, and the presence of non-engineered landfill sites in both the developing and developed ... -
EVALUATION OF RECYCLED PLASTIC PINS AS SHEAR KEYS IN MSE WALL BASE
Bhandari, Prabesh; 0000-0002-7696-4717 (2021-05-06)Mechanically Stabilized Earth (MSE) walls have been widely used as retaining structures due to their flexible nature, a better tolerance against differential settlement, and many other factors. However, external stability ... -
PERFORMANCE EVALUATION OF RECYCLED PLASTIC PINS IN TWO LAYERS TO STABILIZE DEEP SLOPE FAILURES
Madanayake, Sachini; 0000-0003-0540-4840 (2022-12-09)Slope failures are a common occurrence in highway embankments throughout Texas due to the presence of high plastic clays with expansive behavior. Although shallow slope failures are prevalent, slope failures extending ... -
PERFORMANCE OF RECYCLED PLASTIC PINS FOR INCREASING BEARING CAPACITY OF FOUNDATION SOIL
Badhon, Faria Fahim; 0000-0002-1420-582X (2021-08-10)Mechanically Stabilized Earth (MSE) walls constructed on unsuitable foundation soil are prone to large deformation and bearing capacity failure. A variety of techniques can be applied to address this issue, such as removal ... -
RAINFALL-INDUCED SLOPE FAILURE – AN EARLY WARNING SYSTEM
Islam, Md Aminul; 0000-0001-9152-9556 (2021-12-16)Globally, slope failures cause substantial death tolls and economic loss. Embankments constructed on high plasticity clay are vulnerable to cyclic swelling and shrinkage when subjected to climate. Thus, over time, soil ... -
REUSING OF RECYCLED PLASTIC AS PAVEMENT BASE AND SUB-BASE MATERIALS
Imtiaz, Tanvir; 0000-0002-0764-2925 (2021-08-10)A large percentage of waste materials is recycled back into the same product from which they originated. In spite of considerable progress in recycling waste materials generated in urban environments, the materials are ...
