Abstract: An experimental investigation was undertaken to study the flexural fatigue behavior of a stabilized fiber-reinforced pavement base course material composed largely of recycled concrete aggregate with small amounts of ...

Abstract: Based on data obtained from seventy‐nine large‐scale one‐dimensional laboratory tests, limiting conditions were established to define the transition zone between retention and elutriation of chemical grout injected into a ...

Abstract: Grouted sand is considered as a two‐phase particulate composite in which both the cohesive and adhesive properties of the grout and the particle‐to‐particle interaction of the sand are considered to contribute toward the ...

Abstract: Goal setting has an established record of improving the productivity of the workforce in manufacturing and service industries, and a programmatic use of goal setting and feedback has been shown to increase productivity by ...

Abstract: Goal setting is one of the motivational techniques used in manufacturing and service industries to improve the productivity of the workforce, and previous studies have shown that goal setting can result in up to 20% increase ...

Abstract: There are many geotechnical engineering support systems (for example, bore-injected minipiles, grouted anchors, grout in the void around a tunnel liner) where it is advantageous to inject a cement grout under pressure. A ...

Abstract: This study investigates the roles of contaminant-grout and contaminant-soil interactions on the effectiveness of grouting gasoline-contaminated soil for minimizing contaminant migration by substantially decreasing the ...

Abstract: Because of the constraints of the existing building, a reconstruction project is more complicated and difficult than a new project, and a multiphase reconstruction project is even more complicated and difficult than a ...

Abstract: A one‐dimensional mathematical model based on finitestrain theory is developed to solve the problem of seepage‐induced consolidation in sedimented slurries or very soft clays. The direct solution employs known or assumed ...
