Green Building and Sustainable Infrastructure: Sustainability Education for Civil Engineers
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper discusses a framework for incorporating sustainable design/thinking as a new civil engineering course and experiences from the pilot offering. Important areas are outlined to aid all engineers in understanding ...
Effects of Macrosynthetic Fibers on Pervious Concrete Properties
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents the results of a testing plan designed to evaluate the effects of macrosynthetic fibers on pervious concrete material properties and durability. The effects of two lengths of fibers (38 and 56 mm) were ...
Effect of Coarse Aggregate on the Freeze-Thaw Durability of Pervious Concrete
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Pervious concrete is becoming more common as a storm-water management tool in freeze-thaw climates. One of the main concerns or obstacles preventing a more widespread application is the aspect of freeze-thaw durability, ...
Evaluation of Pervious Concrete Workability Using Gyratory Compaction
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Portland cement pervious concrete (PCPC) is increasingly used across the United States, and this has prompted various entities to begin the process of developing standardized test techniques. A major issue with placing ...
Pervious Concrete Surface Characterization to Reduce Slip-Related Falls
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents results from a unique study that employed biomechanical evaluation techniques to assess the slipping behavior of traditional and pervious concrete pavements under icy conditions. Gait motion analysis ...
