  • Prototype-Scale Physical Model Study of Wave Attenuation by an Idealized Mangrove Forest of Moderate Cross-shore Width

    Creator:
    Kelty, Kiernan M.
    Abstract:
    The use of natural and nature-based features for coastal hazard mitigation, particularly emergent vegetation such as mangrove forests, have become increasingly popular. However, the protection that these systems can provide has not been fully quantified for engineering design, and the uncertainties in parameterized equations have not been fully defined. In...

  • The Fundamental Behavior of CLT Floor-to-Wall Connections in Fire

    Creator:
    Redus, James Aaron
    Abstract:
    This thesis focuses on the fundamental behavior of CLT floor-to-wall connections during a fire. Cross-laminated timber (CLT) panelized structures rely on floor-to-wall connections for the load path and stability of the structure. Additionally, the fire performance of these connections is critical to prevent horizontal or vertical fire spread within these...

  • Influence of Concrete and Construction Parameters on Chloride Test Measurements and Critical Chloride Threshold Limits

    Creator:
    Vaddey, Naga Pavan
    Abstract:
    The issue of chloride-induced corrosion of reinforcing steel in concrete and its economic impacts are well-known. Chlorides that cause reinforcement corrosion can be from constituent materials used to prepare concrete or can enter the hardened concrete when the structure is exposed to chloride environments. To minimize the risk of reinforcement...
