RISControl and Stabilization of Fugitive Dust: Using Eco-Friendly and Sustainable Materials
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Untreated soil is prone to erosion and dust generation that result in various environmental and health hazards. The addition of additives has been used as a soil treatment method to tackle this problem. Conventional ...
Durability of Rammed Earth Materials
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Rammed earth (RE) is a low-embodied-energy construction technique that attracted the attention of engineers in recent years. To date, few studies have investigated the chemical deterioration of RE. This study investigated ...
Performance of Rammed Earth Exposed to High Temperature and Direct Fire Using Destructive and Nondestructive Analysis
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The environmental friendliness, good thermal performance and sustainable development of rammed earth structures have attracted the attention of numerous researchers and engineers in recent years. Nevertheless, the fire ...
Interface between Tire and Pavement
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Sliding friction between a pavement and tire is an important concern in traffic safety. The British pendulum test has been used worldwide to evaluate friction characteristics of pavement surfaces. However, because of ...
Energy Use and Thermal Performance of Rammed-Earth Materials
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The high rate of energy consumption in the building sector has led designers toward construction methods that consume less energy during construction through serviceability. One of these methods is rammed-earth (RE) ...
Experimental and Analytical Investigation on the Interlayer of Roller Compacted Concrete
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Roller compacted concrete (RCC) is a dry concrete with zero slump and is constructed in layers. RCC dams are generally weak in interlayers. The bond strength and the permeability of the interlayer affect the performance ...
A Novel Multiple Linear Regression Approach for Predicting the Unconfined Compressive Strength of Soil
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper proposes a precise and general multiple linear regression (MLR) model to predict the unconfined compressive strength (UCS) of various soil types. The study used a wide range of data sets, including 952 data ...
