Assessment of Social Sustainability for the Construction Workforce

Creator:: Karakhan, Ali A.
Abstract:: Minimal research has focused on the social dimension of sustainability in the built environment especially as it relates to the construction workforce. As a result, there are few to no tools available to industry stakeholders to holistically assess and improve the social sustainability of the construction workforce. Given the high...

A socio-technical study on the improved characterization of stakeholder behaviors and stream temperature in design of watershed conservation practices for climate change adaptation

Creator:: Noa-Yarasca, Efrain
Abstract:: Characterizing stakeholder behavior when making decisions in watershed management is a great challenge for planners, not only because plans are associated with physical uncertainties but also because stakeholders’ behaviors are influenced by numerous factors. Since stakeholders’ decision-making is linked to multiple types of uncertainty, communication of uncertainty to stakeholders by...

Monotonic and Cyclic Testing of Cross-Laminated Timber Diaphragms

Creator:: Beairsto, Cody J.
Abstract:: Mass timber is emerging as a viable form of construction around the world in new markets for wood buildings. The entrance into these markets has driven the demand for more knowledge to enable designs alongside other structural materials such as steel and reinforced concrete. Large, in-plane tests on cross-laminated timber...

Alternate Methods for the Extraction and Measurement of Pore Solution in Fresh Concrete

Creator:: Biever, Joseph
Abstract:: Knowledge of the pore solution composition and pore solution resistivity can be helpful for determining the durability of concrete structures. Most notably, pore solution resistivity can be used in the calculation of the formation factor of concrete, which is a ratio of the electrical resistivities of concrete and its pore...

The Evaluation of Cementitious Pore Solution Composition and Electrical Resistivity Using X-ray Fluorescence (XRF)

Creator:: Tsui Chang, Marisol
Abstract:: Interest in performance specifications has been growing in the civil and construction industry in the past decade. One major focus area has been on understanding how to prolong the service life of concrete structures, since repair and rehabilitation of existing infrastructure have cost many trillions of dollars. Deterioration mechanisms such...

Evaluation of Low-Impact Development (LID) Treatment Train at OSU-Benton County Green Infrastructure Facility

Creator:: Saduova, Alisha
Abstract:: Urban stormwater runoff with a high impervious area can significantly impact pollution concentrations of receiving water bodies. The use of low impact development (LID), which mimics the hydrological properties of the site before development, has been studied in an increasing number of studies, and the available database has shown to...

Transport and adsorption of proteinanceous particles during flow through porous media

Creator:: Yamamoto, Tokuo
Abstract:: This is a fundamental study of the mechanism of protein particle removal during flow through sandy soil. Mathematical models for diffusion-adsorption and diffusion-convection-adsorption processes were developed and compared with experimental data. An attempt was made to calculate the distance over which the adsorption forces act. The differential equation for the...

A study on the oxidation of sulfides in estuarine waters

Creator:: Korpalski, Thomas Paul
Abstract:: Waters of various salinities were secured from the Umpqua estuary, the Umpqua River, and the open ocean near the mouth of the estuary. The rate of oxidation of sulfides in these various waters was investigated to assess the potential longevity of free sulfides in estuarine waters. The rate of disappearance...

Development of Authentic Engineering Curriculum through Collaborative Development: Research on Development and Adoption

Creator:: Cross, Matthew J.
Abstract:: Background: Studies indicate that problems utilized in traditional undergraduate engineering education do not adequately prepare students for the workforce. Calls to implement authentic, ill-structured problems into upper level engineering experiences may address this issue but adopting authentic engineering problems without considering barriers to adoption of faculty has not been fully...
