Statistical quality control applied to asphalt concrete

Creator:: Coghlan, Gerald Thomas
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to investigate an application of statistical concepts to quality control of highway construction. The application was presented qualitatively and demonstrated quantitatively by an investigation of asphalt content in asphalt concrete. For the example, an Oregon State Highway Project was sampled and tested. The average...

The computer, the computer user group, and the civil engineer

Creator:: Cunningham, Gerald Robert
Abstract:: An attempt to determine the relationship between the computer, the computer program exchange organization and today's practicing civil engineer has just been completed. A questionnaire was used to obtain information and opinions from 850 selected practicing civil engineers. Based on those questionnaires reaching their addresses, a return rate of 81.7...

A Numerical Investigation of the Bearing Capacity of Shallow Foundations on Salt-Encrusted Flat Sabkha

Creator:: Refaei, Raied
Abstract:: Salt-encrusted flats, or Sabkha, are common in arid and semi-arid regions worldwide, including coastal and inland areas. Due to their low shear strength and high compressibility, these soils are often unsuitable for supporting infrastructure or structures. The unique salt content of sabkha formations sets them apart from other soil types....

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...

Numerical Simulations and Microscale Analyses of Offshore Anchor-Granular Material Systems

Creator:: Zhang, Nan
Abstract:: Anchoring systems are used to hold floating offshore devices (e.g., energy devices, oil platforms) to keep them on their stations. Anchors are embedded into the seabed soils. In some cases, the interface shear between anchor and seabed soils together with anchor self-weight provide the holding capacity of the anchoring systems....

Properties of marginal aggregates treated with asphalt emulsion

Creator:: Evans, Gary L.
Abstract:: The purpose of this report is to address the problem of supplying construction aggregates to Oregon's coastal areas that are currently, or will in the near future, be deficient of good quality materials. This is done primarily by studying methods of utilizing marginal aggregates that are abundantly available in the...

Seismic Performance of Square Reinforced Concrete Columns Retrofitted with Titanium Alloy Bars

Creator:: Lostra, Mackenzie M. W.
Abstract:: Large numbers of reinforced concrete (RC) bridges were built in the past that are now considered seismically deficient. The structural members most likely to be considered deficient are the supporting columns. Typical deficient columns contain inadequate transverse reinforcement and poorly detailed lap splice lengths above the foundation. Insufficient lap splice...

Creep characteristics of a light-weight aggregate concrete

Creator:: Nathanson, Stephen Hayward
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis

Seismic assessment of unreinforced and retrofitted masonry buildings using Applied Element Method (AEM)

Creator:: Soti, Rajendra
Abstract:: A significant number of Unreinforced Masonry (URM) buildings exist in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States of America that is a region of high seismicity, which could be subjected to both crustal and subduction zone earthquakes. The catastrophic and brittle failures associated with URM buildings in the past...
