RISPredicting Hydrostatic Infiltration in Reinforced Concrete Sewer Pipes Considering Joint Gap and Joint Offset
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Groundwater infiltration into underground sewer systems has long been a costly issue for municipalities. With reinforced concrete pipe (RCP) being a primary sewer system option, existing hydrostatic testing methods conducted ...
Modeling Rheological Properties of Oil Well Cement Slurries Using Artificial Neural Networks
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: An artificial neural network (ANN) model was developed to predict the rheological properties of oil well cement slurries. The slurries were prepared by using Class G oil well cement with a water-cement ratio (
Performance of NDT Techniques in Appraising Condition of Reinforced Concrete Bridge Decks
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The colossal backlog of deteriorated concrete bridge decks draws attention to the importance of nondestructive testing (NDT) technologies as potential bridge condition assessment tools. The selection of NDT techniques to ...
Quantifying Resistance of Reinforced Concrete Pipe Joints to Water Infiltration
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Hydrostatic joint performance for infiltration is a key design requirement for a reinforced concrete pipe (RCP) to withstand in situ groundwater pressure. However, current standards and test methods adopted by RCP manufacturers ...
Eco-Friendly Mitigation of Alkali-Silica Reaction in Concrete Using Waste-Marble Powder
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: With several countries halting coal combustion in favor of clean and renewable energy production, there is need for alternative mineral additions that can substitute for fly ash in concrete and bring about similar benefits. ...
Gradient Boosting Coupled with Oversampling Model for Prediction of Concrete Pipe-Joint Infiltration Using Designwise Data Set
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Infiltration of groundwater through reinforced concrete pipe (RCP) joints under hydrostatic pressure has been a major costly challenge in municipal sewer network systems. Analysis of an exclusive designwise infiltration ...
Remediation of NAPL-Contaminated Brackish Water by Synthesized Organoclay: Experimental Analysis and BNN Predictive Model
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This study aimed at synthesizing organoclay to remove benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene (BTEX) and phenol as nonaqueous phase liquid (NAPL) from brackish water. The cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) was used ...
Investigation of High Plasticity Clay Stabilized with Cement and Zeolite Using Time-Dependent Pressure Wave Velocity
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Enhancing the dynamic properties of expansive soils using cementitious materials has attracted the attention of many researchers over the past few decades. Supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) can be used as partial ...
Feasibility of Using Waste Glass Sludge in Production of Ecofriendly Clay Bricks
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Burnt clay bricks are commonly used in construction across the globe. The objective of this study is to explore the potential of using waste glass sludge (WGS) as a secondary material in clay brick manufacturing. WGS was ...
