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.

Precast Diaphragm Response in Half-Scale Shake Table Test
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper summarizes key diaphragm response parameters observed during the shake table testing of a three-story precast concrete structure built at half-scale. The test structure geometry possessed an aspect ratio in plan ...
Residual Capacity of Axially Loaded Circular RC Columns after Lateral Low-Velocity Impact
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: RC bridge columns that are at risk for collision loading must be designed for lateral impact load. Because bridge columns must also support axial loads, evaluating the residual axial capacity and collapse risk of impact-damaged ...
Probabilistic Calibration for Shear Strength Models of Reinforced Concrete Columns
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A probabilistic calibration method is proposed for evaluating the accuracy and applicability of available deterministic models for the shear strength of shear-critical reinforced concrete (RC) columns. Shear mechanisms of ...
Development of a BIM-Based Data Management System for Structural Health Monitoring with Application to Modular Buildings: Case Study
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Modular buildings or off-site construction of building units are increasingly gaining momentum. Although such construction practices have advantages in terms of cost competitiveness and delivery time, they have many issues ...
Induced Corrosion Techniques for Two-Way Slabs
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Accelerated corrosion techniques are used to assess the structural performance of corroded reinforced concrete elements. This paper aims to illustrate the use of various techniques by showing their advantages and disadvantages. ...
Hybrid Recommendation Approach for Behavior Modification in the Chinese Construction Industry
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Behavior-based safety (BBS), which contains definition, observation, intervention, and test, is proven to be useful in safety management on-site. Safety training is regarded as an effective method for the BBS intervention. ...
Empirical Analysis of Capital Structure Determinants in Infrastructure Projects under Public–Private Partnerships
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Public–private partnerships (PPPs) have emerged as a promising alternative to financing infrastructure projects in order to address the infrastructure restoration and rehabilitation challenge. However, in the current ...
IFC-Based Partial Data Model Retrieval for Distributed Collaborative Design
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: To deal with the growing complexity of Industry Foundation Classes (IFC) models, a partial model has always been proposed as an effective way to satisfy users’ specific requirements by tailoring the central model. The ...
Classification of Modular Building Construction Projects Based on Schedule-Driven Approach
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Modular construction projects involve concurrent manufacturing production and construction processes for constructing the main structure and the foundation, on-site installation, and finishing work. Using process-driven ...
