Abstract: Application of a pressure membrane extractor (PME) to establish soil-water characteristic curve (SWCC) of fine-grained soils, in 0–1,500 kPa range, is well established. However, this technique requires testing of several ...

Abstract: Particle size of the fly ash governs its utilization in various engineering projects. This could be obtained by either conducting dry- and wet-sieving or hydrometer analysis. Though, for a material with a particle size less than

Abstract: This paper presents the measurement of rapid chloride ion permeability (charge passed) values through carbonated and non carbonated ordinary portland cement (OPC)– and portland pozzolana cement (PPC)-based concretes. When ...

Abstract: Detailed performance monitoring studies have been carried out for determining the deformations and stress distribution around underground powerhouse caverns in nonhomogeneous rock mass, using three-dimensional finite element ...

Abstract: The soil-contaminant interaction is significantly influenced by various attributes of soil and contaminant, and it can be quantified by employing a term known as

Abstract: A series of pullout tests were conducted on a model pile in a soil with different initial water contents and different pile surface roughnesses to study their influences on pile skin friction. To measure axial strains and ...
