Cement with fly ash has rarely been used in Japan, mainly because its strength development is slower than ordinary Portland cement. In this research, the effect of the new type of fly ash (which was modified by the electrostatic belt separation metho...
The demand for preserving existing roadway infrastructure has been increasing to regulate expensive reconstruction activities. The maintenance of homogeneous road sections is one of the approaches to economize the overall management of pavement syste...
Video processing for structural monitoring has attracted much attention in recent years thanks to the possibility of measuring displacement time histories in the absence of stationary points close to the structure, using hardware that is simple to op...
The aim of this study is to compare the properties of refractory concrete made with thermally treated and untreated steel slag. Five concrete compositions were prepared and investigated in the present work. The first mixture, referred to as the refer...
Combined sewer overflow (CSO) is a significant environmental concern and public health risk (e.g., water contamination, eutrophication, and beach closure). The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has introduced the National Pollutant Discharge Elim...
The evolution of technological tools, namely affordable sensors for data collection, and the growing concerns about maintaining roads in adequate conditions have promoted the development of continuous pavement monitoring systems. This paper presents...
The study examined the intricate relationships between embankment slope configurations, toe drain designs, and drawdown scenarios. It utilized a unique combination of numerical, physical, and mathematical models. The investigation involved 16 numeric...
Blast loadings have become the subject of research in recent decades due to the threats they pose to the surrounding medium. On 4 August 2020, a huge explosion occurred in the Port of Beirut that led to massive damages in the medium surrounding it. R...
The indirect tensile strength of two geomaterials treated with variable cement contents, degrees of compaction and water contents were tested after several curing times. A statistical review through an analysis of variance allows for identifying the...
Understanding frequentation patterns allows urban planners to optimize the allocation of resources and infrastructure development. This includes determining the locations for schools, hospitals, public transportation, parks, and other amenities to ef...
In recent decades, the international community has recognized the detrimental impact of the construction industry on the environment. In recent years, the use of recycled aggregates has attracted increasing interest as a sustainable and cost-effectiv...
Asset management decision support tools determine which action (maintenance, rehabilitation, or reconstruction) is applied to each facility in a transportation network and when. Sophisticated tools recognize uncertainties and consider emerging priori...
The analysis of road network topology has attracted the attention of researchers in the past few decades. In this study, the road topology of housing estates in a few selected Central European countries (Hungary, Austria, Czech Republic, and Slovakia...
In 2016, Carlos Moreno proposed the concept of “15-minute cities” based on the principles of proximity, diversity, density, and ubiquity. In fact, he re-formulated (“re-invented”) some of the already existing planning principl...
Industrial secondary products (e.g., fly ash, blast furnace slag, and silica fume) have found extensive application as alternative construction materials in conventional manufacturing methods to reduce carbon emissions due to cement usage and solve t...
The impact of the calcination temperature and grinding time on the mechanical properties and durability of limestone-calcined clay concrete (LC3) is crucial. In this research, calcined clay was produced within the temperature range of 700 °C to 9...
Tunnel face extrusion rigidity is an important factor for solving stress–strain problems in loose ground conditions. In previous studies, the effect of horizontal and vertical soil layering on tunnel excavation face stability in the presence of...
Self-compacting concrete (SCC) production is a complex operation that requires finding a good combination and suitable dosages for its constituents. Several formulation methods have been developed to meet the workability requirements of SCC. Mortar s...
