ALL ABOUT CIVIL ENGINEERING
AbstractTrillions of cigarette butts (CBs) are dumped into landfills globally. CBs leach toxic components into the soil, including heavy metals, tar, and many other chemical compounds. Approximately 7.2 billion CBs are…
AbstractPublic and private organizations are distinct in terms of ownership structure and stakeholders because they approach project management processes and structures differently. Thus, it is likely that they operate project…
AbstractPreliminary estimations of shaft resistance of rock-socketed piles are usually conducted using empirical formulations that relate to the uniaxial compressive strength (σc) of the weaker material involved (intact rock or…
AbstractTypically, on-site construction quality inspection (OCQI) is manually conducted, and its effectiveness highly depends on the self-discipline of responsible personnel. Furthermore, construction quality information is still recorded on paper, with…
AbstractPalm oil has significant potential for use as fuel for vehicles due to its abundance. However, it is highly viscous and has a high distillation temperature, such that it is…
AbstractSeasonal drying and wetting highly influence ecosystem diversity in intermittent streams. Hydrological alterations are responsible for the spawning and reproduction of aquatic habitats. The present study attempts to understand the…
AbstractThe scouring process near spur dikes could jeopardize the stability of riverbanks. Thus, accurate estimation of the maximum scour depth near spur dikes is crucial in river engineering. However, due…
AbstractPracticing engineers use the uncertain bilinear soil spring methodology recommended by engineering guidelines to predict soil loads acting on buried pipelines. Even though more advanced solutions are available in the…
AbstractBuckling-restrained braces (BRBs) are seismic devices that provide structures such as buildings and bridges with lateral support, dissipating more energy than traditional bracing. Large-scale laboratory testing to assess every buckling-restrained…
AbstractUrban waste glass powder (GP) has been identified as the Si-rich (>70%) but Ca- and Al-deficient precursor material for use in alkali-activated materials (AAMs). To facilitate the recycling and utilization…
