Development of a test procedure for water sensitivity of asphalt concrete mixtures

Creator:: Al-Swailmi, Saleh H.
Abstract:: Environmental factors such as temperature, air, and water can have a profound effect on the durability of asphalt concrete mixtures. In mild climates where good quality aggregates and asphalt cement are available, the major contribution to deterioration may be due to traffic loading and the resultant distress is manifested in...

Influence of silt size and content on static liquefaction potential of sand

Creator:: Monkul, M. Murat
Abstract:: Different specimen preparation methods such as moist tamping, dry funnel deposition, slurry deposition, dry air pluviation have been reported in the literature to investigate the undrained behavior of silty sands. Similarly, different means have been used to densify the soils prepared with such methods. However, the influence of the densification...

Optimizing the performance of gypsum wall board in wood frame shear walls

Creator:: Goodall, Scott I.
Abstract:: The overall goal of this project was to design a wood frame shear wall that could withstand greater displacement before damage occurred to the Gypsum Wall Board (GWB). More specifically, the objectives of the study were: (1) to evaluate damage to the GWB in alternative shear wall designs at 1%,...

Behavioral thresholds in mixtures of sand and clay

Creator:: Simpson, Daniel Corder
Abstract:: Nearly all soils are comprised of mixtures of coarse and fine particles. Behavior under mechanical and thermal loading of soil is strongly influenced (and in some cases, governed) by the ratio of coarse to fine particles. A better understanding of the fundamental behavior of soil mixtures will provide insight to...

Right-hook crash causality at signalized intersections

Creator:: Jannat, Mafruhatul
Abstract:: A Right-hook (RH) crash is a common type of bicycle-motor vehicle crash that occurs between a right-turning vehicle and through-moving bicycle at an intersection. At signalized intersections, RH crashes can occur at the onset of the green or during the latter portion of the green phase. In spite of the...

Behavior of open grid steel bridge decks under service and fatigue loads

Creator:: Fetzer, Peter C.
Abstract:: Open grid steel bridge decks have been in use for nearly a century. These open grid decks provide an economical and lightweight alternative to traditional reinforced concrete decks. As the transportation infrastructure continues to deteriorate, open grid decks can be used as a cost effective way to rehabilitate structurally deficient...

Large scale model testing of the FMC submerged wave attenuation device

Creator:: Huber, David S.
Abstract:: This report describes the hydrodynamic testing and evaluation of a one-tenth scale model of the FMC Wave Attenuation Device. The purpose of the test was to quantify the wave attenuation characteristics and structural loading induced by a test program of monochromatic incident waves on the submerged structure. The device was...

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...
