Damage assessment of corroded steel members due to severe exposure conditions, has been a vital component for determining the strengthening requirements of existing deteriorated structures, to overcome possible devastating failures. This article main...

Strengthening of composite beams is highly needed to upgrade the capacities of existing beams. The strengthening methods can be classified as active or passive techniques. Therefore, the main purpose of this study is to provide detailed FE simulation...

This review aims to investigate the recent advancements in the performance of earthquake-damaged reinforced concrete structures subjected to fire loading and the damages that are induced by fire to reinforced concrete structural elements with damage...

The aim of this work is to determine how the mechanical and physical properties of render mortars, in particular their moisture performance, are affected by the application of paint. In this study, three commercial paints, hydro-pliolite-based paint,...

Portland cement (PC) is a common material used in civil infrastructure engineering. Cement production emits roughly 2.2 billion tons of CO2 per year, contributing 8% of global emissions in 2016. This contributes to almost half of the calcination proc...

Transportation agencies periodically conduct signal retiming (i.e., optimization) to ensure efficient signal operations. Previous studies introduced the notion of the “resonant cycle length” (RCL), which is based on the premise that a goo...

Most transmission pipelines are buried underground per regulations, and external corrosion is the leading cause of failures of buried pipelines. For assessing aged pipeline integrity, many corrosion assessment models have been developed over the past...

The transition to a design based on information modeling has paved the way for automated verification of project documentation. The most complicated type of design documentation check is the assessment of compliance with the requirements of regulator...

Reusing waste is one of the most recent topics and one of the main contributors to sustainability. It is known that concrete is one of the most common materials to produce different types of construction members around the world. That is due to mainl...
