Integrated Framework for Optimizing Inspection Tests of Concrete Pavement Materials
AbstractTransportation agencies have been facing the challenge of shrinking budgets and reductions in the size of inspection staff with an…
Approach to Estimate Hydraulic Conductivity Function from Soil–Water Retention Curve for Noncohesive Soils
AbstractPavement materials are prone to damage due to mechanical loadings and rainfall infiltration. The rainfall initiates moisture movement within the…
Multiscale Characterization of Aging and Rejuvenation in Asphalt Binder Blends with High RAP Contents
AbstractThe use of high amounts of reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) in asphalt pavements has many economic and environmental benefits; however,…
Innovative Models for Capacity Estimation of Reinforced Concrete Elements in Terms of Soft Computing Techniques
AbstractIn reinforced concrete (RC) moment frames, the performance of the whole structure to provide a suitable strength against lateral loads…
Strength and Durability Properties of Treated Recycled Aggregate Concrete by Soaking and Mechanical Grinding Method: Influence of Processing Technique
AbstractThe use of recycled aggregate (RA) generated from construction and demolition (C&D) waste to produce new concrete would minimize the…
Two Different Approaches for Collapse of Nonsymmetric Masonry Arches: Monasterio’s Treatment versus Limit Equilibrium Analysis
AbstractThis research can be viewed as a development of the critical review of the Monasterio’s manuscript Nueva teórica sobre el…
Prediction of Piled Raft Settlement Using Soil Subgrade Modulus in Consolidating Clays
AbstractTime-dependent settlements of piled raft foundations embedded in consolidating clays were studied using three-dimensional (3D) finite-element analysis and critical state-based…
Large-Scale Visual Data–Driven Probabilistic Risk Assessment of Utility Poles Regarding the Vulnerability of Power Distribution Infrastructure Systems
AbstractInspecting and assessing existing utility poles has become increasingly important for reducing the vulnerability of power distribution infrastructure systems in…
Ontology for Linking Delay Claims with 4D Simulation to Analyze Effects-Causes and Responsibilities
AbstractVisualizing and analyzing the specifics of delay claims in relation to effects and causes and assigning responsibility are a challenge…
