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...
Resource Type:: Dissertation

Investigation of the behavior of diagonally cracked full-scale CRC deck-girders injected with epoxy resin and subjected to axial tension

Creator:: Smith, Matthew T. (Matthew Todd)
Abstract:: Article 1: Behavior of Epoxy Injected Diagonally Cracked Full-Scale CRC Deck-Girders. Many cast-in place reinforced concrete deck-girder bridges (RCDG) remain in the national inventory and exhibit diagonal cracking. Epoxy injection has been in use for several decades as a method for sealing diagonal cracks, but the effects on girder behavior...

Nonlinear hydrodynamic response of curved singly-connected cables

Creator:: Chiou, Rueybin
Resource Type:: Dissertation

Pile hammer selection by driving stress analysis

Creator:: Barrero-Quiroga, Franklin
Abstract:: This paper presents an application of the wave equation to the problem of selecting a driving hammer for prestressed concrete piles. The potentially damaging effects of these types of hammers on various prestressed concrete piles were analyzed by means of parametric studies carried out on a hypothetical group of problems...

Shrinkage study of high performance concrete for bridge decks

Creator:: Fu, Tengfei
Abstract:: In the field of civil infrastructure, bridge desks are typically constructed using high performance concrete (HPC). Concrete bridge decks demand qualities such as low permeability, high abrasion resistance, superior durability, and long design life. Over decades of field and laboratory experience, many HPC bridge decks have been found to be...

Computerized safety analysis technique for secondary highways

Creator:: Nichols, Kevin Scott
Abstract:: Evaluation of the safety hazards along a highway is usually performed at specific locations and on known hazards. But, it is also important to find any unrecognized hazards and their locations. Many factors contribute to accident potential, and the combined effect of several of them could produce a hazard that...
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis

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...
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis

Development of the simplified method to evaluate dynamic mechanical analysis data on asphalt-aggregate mixtures

Creator:: Ab-Wahab, Yunus Bin
Abstract:: Testing of asphalt binders and asphalt-aggregate mixtures using dynamic mechanical analysis is becoming popular with improvements in high-speed computers, precision equipment, and computer software. Researchers are trying to describe the behavior of asphalt binders and asphalt-aggregate mixtures in terms of their time- and temperature-dependent linear viscoelastic behavior. The objectives of...
Resource Type:: Dissertation

Development of a mechanistic overlay design procedure for flexible pavements

Creator:: Zhou, Haiping
Abstract:: This dissertation describes the development of a mechanistic overlay design procedure. The mechanistic analysis represents a new trend in both new pavement and overlay design. The greatest advantage of the mechanistic pavement analysis is that it considers the fundamental characteristics of materials to be used, is capable of considering changes...
Resource Type:: Dissertation

Wood materials and shearwalls of older light-frame residential structures

Creator:: Carroll, Cameron T.
Abstract:: Light-frame construction practices and materials have changed greatly over the past 100 years. Contemporary research has focused on modern construction; thus, we know a great deal about the behavior of modern lightframe buildings under lateral forces. However, there are many light-frame buildings that were built prior to the introduction of...
