ASCE ( American Society of Civil Engineers )
Description: The American Society of Civil Engineers represents more than 150,000 members of the civil engineering profession in 177 countries. Founded in 1852, ASCE is the nation’s oldest engineering society. ASCE stands at the forefront of a profession that plans, designs, constructs, and operates society’s economic and social engine – the built environment – while protecting and restoring the natural environment.

Tests of Tall Cavity Walls Subjected to Eccentric Loading
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents a test program on full-scale reinforced slender shear connected cavity walls subjected to an eccentric compressive loading. A total of nine walls were tested. All specimens were constructed with a ...
Tests on Reinforced Partially Prestressed Concrete Tank Walls
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Current practice for structural design of environmental concrete structures such as water reservoirs and sewage treatment tanks follows one of two philosophies. The tanks are either fully prestressed or non-prestressed. ...
Numerical Study of Tall Masonry Cavity Walls Subjected to Eccentric Loads
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents the results of the second phase of an ongoing investigation into the behavior of tall cavity masonry walls constructed with partially grouted and reinforced concrete block wythe and a burnt brick wythe ...
Numerical Prediction of Hopper‐Bin Pressures
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A numerical investigation of wall pressures generated by bulk materials stored in hopper-silo combinations is presented. Emphasis is placed on incipient flow type pressures on inclined hopper walls. The technique used ...
Finite Element Analysis of Longitudinally Stiffened Cylinders in Bending
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents the construction, verification, and utilization of a finite element model for longitudinally stiffened large diameter fabricated steel cylinders subjected to bending. The model is based on a large ...
Composite Concrete-Steel Plate Walls: Analysis and Behavior
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents some of the results of a study involving the ultimate and postpeak capacity of composite concrete-steel plate walls subjected to transverse and longitudinal loading. The main application of these composite ...
