Managing Interdependence-Induced Systemic Risks in Infrastructure Projects
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Complex by nature, infrastructure megaprojects rarely meet stakeholders’ expectations. A key characteristic of such complexity is the interdependence among different project stakeholders (e.g., contractors) where ...
Data-Driven Assessment of Complexity-Induced Risks in Infrastructure Projects
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Infrastructure projects are characterized by inherent complexities that often lead to their poor performance. Notwithstanding challenges posed by various risks and their interactions, the additional non-linear and dynamic ...
Dynamic Characterization of Tire Derived Aggregates
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Despite the recent efforts in characterizing and investigating the dynamic properties of tire-derived aggregates (TDA) and its use in civil engineering applications, the size of TDA used in most of the previous work was ...
Use of Rigid Geofoam Insulation to Mitigate Frost Heave at Shallow Culvert Installations
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Roadways over culverts experience severe distresses due to frost action in the subgrade. Thermal insulation placed near the culvert can reduce frost penetration in the soil surrounding the culvert. Three culvert sites ...
