Properties of Fly Ash Geopolymer Concrete as Marine Artificial Reef Building Materials
(ASCE, 2024/02/01)The twenty-first century is known as the “century of the ocean.” Artificial reefs have been extensively studied and used worldwide as the main infrastructure of marine pastures. At present, research has been primarily ... -
Effect of High-Density Polyethylene Pyro-Oil Modification on Chemical, Rheological, and Damping Properties of Binders
(ASCE, 2024/02/01)Plastic waste is harmful to the environment and takes thousands of years to decompose naturally. Pyrolysis is an effective method of plastic waste management, and the oil obtained from the process can be used as a modifier ... -
Evaluating Direct Shear Performance of Steel Fiber–Reinforced Concrete
(ASCE, 2024/02/01)Shear stress is one of the main design parameters for structures subjected to seismic demands. Steel fibers are a viable option for the shear reinforcement of concrete elements because they tend to increase the tensile ... -
Behavior of Bamboo and Jute Geocell Overlaying Soft Subgrade under Repeated Wheel Loading
(ASCE, 2024/02/01)This study investigates the behavior of bamboo geocells (BGs) and jute geocells (JGs) under a repeated wheel load test. A series of wheel load tests (WLTs) was conducted to measure the performance of the geocells by varying ... -
Preparation and Performance Evaluation of Warm-Mixed Epoxy Asphalt Ultrathin Overlay by Post-Doping Method
(ASCE, 2024/06/01)Post-doping construction technology overcomes the difficulties of demanding construction requirements of warm-mix epoxy asphalt mixture (EAM) that limit its application, and it provides a new idea for the scaled application ... -
