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.

Interplay between Field Measurements and Soil Behavior for Capturing Supported Excavation Response
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Instruments are installed during the construction of urban excavations to monitor ground response at discrete locations to various construction activities, to verify design assumptions and to effectively apply the observational ...
Effect of Secondary Impacts on SPT Rod Energy and Sampler Penetration
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper explores the standard penetration test (SPT) hammer-anvil behavior and investigates the effect of secondary impact on SPT energy and sampler penetration. It is observed that the hammer-anvil behavior after the ...

Assessment of the Axial Load Response of an H Pile Driven in Multilayered Soil
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Most of the current design methods for driven piles were developed for closed-ended pipe piles driven in either pure clay or clean sand. These methods are sometimes used for H piles as well, even though the axial load ...
Technical Characterization of Sintered-Glass Ceramics Derived from Glass Fibers Recovered by Pyrolysis
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Sintered wollastonite-plagioclase glass ceramics were prepared through crystallization of a parent glass generated by vitrification of pyrolysis residual glass fibers that had been pyrolytically recovered from waste composite ...
Creep-Recovery Behavior of Asphalt Binders Modified with SBS and PPA
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The main objective of this study was to investigate the impact of longer creep-recovery times on the percent recovery (
Capturing a Layer Response during the Curing of Stabilized Earthwork Using a Multiple Sensor Lightweight Deflectometer
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The lightweight deflectometer (LWD) is a portable device that measures surface deflections and applied force, from which dynamic stiffness and elastic modulus can be estimated. The inclusion of radial offset sensors with ...
Waste Management Model Associated with Public-Private Partnership in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A waste management model associated with public-private partnerships (WMMPPP) was formulated and applied to the City of Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. The WMMPPP has the advantages of considering a combination of public and ...
Experimental Study of Bond Strength between Titanium Bar and Lime-Based Mortar
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In the last decades, a number of technical solutions for the improvement of structural connections using new materials between masonry wall panels have been the subject of several studies. In this context, the increasing ...
