Compressive Behavior of Engineered Cementitious Composites under High Strain-Rate Loading
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2017)Engineered cementitious composite (ECC) is a cement-based material, commonly mixed with polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) fiber or polyethylene (PE) fiber as reinforcing materials. This paper reports the test results of ECC materials ... -
Material Properties of Crushable Concrete for Use in Vehicle Antiram Barriers
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2017)With raised national security awareness because of terroristic threats, more focus recently has been placed on barrier and safety systems that can prevent the loss of life and structural damage as a result of vehicular ... -
Simplified Model for Corrosion-Induced Bond Degradation between Steel Strand and Concrete
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2017)The corrosion-induced bond degradation between corroded steel strands and concrete is investigated in the present study. Ten pull-out specimens with different corrosion levels were tested to study corrosion’s effects on ... -
Influences of Activity Index on Mechanical and Microstructural Characteristics of Carbonated Reactive Magnesia-Admixed Silty Soil
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2017) -
Empirical Models for Permanent Deformation of Subgrade Soils from the Data Collected at the Pavement Subgrade Performance Study

Quantification of Effects of Bitumen Surface Treatments on Material Properties of Existing Asphalt Pavement
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2017)Bituminous surface treatments (BSTs), or chip seals, can be placed soon after (e.g., within 1 year) the underlying asphalt layer is paved, toward the end of the life of the existing asphalt layer, or sometime in ... -
Effects of Sugar Beet Molasses and Molasses-Based Boron Oxide Compound on Bitumen Properties
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2017)In this study, sugar beet molasses and molasses-based boron oxide compound (MBOC) were used to modify the base bitumen. Sugar beet molasses is an organic waste material obtained from raw sugar during the refining process ... -
Flame Resistance of Asphalt Mixtures with Flame Retardants through a Comprehensive Testing Program
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2017)As tunnels are now longer and built more frequently, fire safety in tunnels has become a major issue throughout the world. The objective of this study is to investigate the flame resistance of warm-mix asphalt mixtures ... -
Use of TDR to Compare Rising Damp in Three Tuff Walls Made with Different Mortars
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2017)Capillary rise is a serious phenomenon that may have potentially devastating consequences within buildings (biological corrosion, worsening of indoor comfort parameters, worsening of thermal resistance, etc.). Therefore, ... -

Feasibility of Using Biomass Fly and Bottom Ashes to Produce RCC and PCC
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2017)Roller-compacted concrete (RCC) and paver-compacted concrete (PCC) are widely used in mass concrete and pavement. Alternative supplementary cementitious materials (ASCM) can be used in RCC production for rheological, ... -
Characterization of Alkali-Activated Nonwood Biomass Ash–Based Geopolymer Concrete
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2017)The combustion ash of a common nonwood biomass (wheat straw) was evaluated for value-added use in production of geopolymer concrete where alkali aluminosilicate hydrates are the primary binder constituents. The wheat straw ... -
