Abstract: This paper presents stability analysis and design recommendations for the falsework of wood and metal post shores. Based on the setup of shoring systems used on actual construction sites, analysis models of the shoring ...

Abstract: This paper presents structural modeling and design considerations for a double-layer shoring system made of wood posts based on analytical derivation, numerical computation, and the LeMessurier formula. Simplified ...

Abstract: The corrosion of structural steel has a significant impact on the durability of plate girders servicing in marine environments. A high-performance configuration for a steel plate girder with a titanium–clad bimetallic steel ...

Abstract: A field load test is an essential way to understand the behavior and fundamental characteristics of newly constructed bridges before they are allowed to go into service. The results of field static load tests and numerical ...

Abstract: The objective of this study was to predict biochar properties [surface area and oxygen-to-carbon (O/C) and hydrogen-to-carbon (H/C) ratios] from pyrolysis conditions, volatile matter content, and pH using the k-nearest ...

Abstract: The application of industrial waste in construction reduces the dependency on natural resources. The materials, including red mud (RM) and fly ash (FA), proved to be favorable materials. However, the materials potential ...

Abstract: This study aims to understand the influence of compaction state, and the drying–wetting cycles on cracks propagation in biochar-amended soils (BAS). The objective of the study is to carry out multiple regression analysis ...
