RISEnriching the Learning Experience for Civil Engineering Students through Learner-Centered Teaching
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The role of professors has changed from being primarily responsible for delivering content to students to including deeper or more in-depth learning opportunities designed to help students develop into creative and critical ...
High-Strength Lightweight SCC Matrix with Partial Normal-Weight Coarse-Aggregate Replacement: Strength and Durability Evaluations
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Lightweight coarse aggregate from five sources found in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) were previously evaluated. The evaluation focused on influence of the physical properties of the aggregates on strength development. ...
Use of CEM Approach to Develop and Optimize High-Performance Underwater Concrete
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The development and optimization of underwater concrete (UWC) characteristics (i.e., washout loss, threshold water head prior to concrete deterioration, and residual compressive strength) require considerable time, effort, ...
Investigation of Mix-Variation Effect on Defect-Detection Ability Using Infrared Thermography as a Nondestructive Evaluation Technique
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Infrared thermography (IRT) is a promising nondestructive evaluation technique that has been widely used for bridge deck inspection. It is a quick and fairly simple method for providing preliminary information about defected ...

Design and Constructability of a Novel Funicular Arched Steel Truss Falsework
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The commercially used systems of formworks and falseworks currently used in construction require high initial cost, take time to be erected, and occupy major space in the construction site. The proposed new system depends ...
Design Liability under FIDIC Red Book and Some Civil Law Jurisdictions
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The construction industry has enormous supply and decision-making chains. Disruptions within these chains can have significant adverse impacts on countries’ economies. There are several methodologies for construction project ...
Dynamic Response Analysis of Composite Pipes Conveying Fluid in the Presence of Internal Wall Thinning
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Pipes conveying fluids are primary components in almost all industries. Internal surface attack is inevitable in pipes and can be crucial to their structural integrity and dynamic response characteristics. In this study, ...
Structural Behavior of Concrete Slabs with Profiled Metal Decking: Experimental and Analytical Study
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Composite slab construction has become one of the most viable options for overcoming today’s challenges in the construction industry. The cohesion weakness between the main two components of such slabs—the concrete surface ...
Threats to Contractor’s Cash Flow under Remeasured Public Works Contracts
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Cash flow constitutes the bloodstream for contractors. The contractual conditions along with the legal rules are used to set the expected cash flow and entitlements for the contractor considering the executed contract. ...
