Abstract

Lignocellulosic materials are abundant in nature, rich in some functional groups, considered less harmful to human health and the environment.The resulting waste may be recycled for other beneficial uses. Lignin is known to be a natural binder in lignocellulosic materials and several studies have confirmed it has binding ability with soil particles. This paper studied its stabilising potential in compressed lateritic bricks, especially its effects on density and compressive strength properties of the bricks. Lignin additives extracted from sawdust were used to stabilise laterite, while the bricks were moulded with the UNIFE ram, a type of the CINVA ram. The laterite was stabilised at 4%, 8% and 12%, while cement stabilised samples and 0% (unstabilised laterite) samples prepared accordingly were used as controls. The results showed that the LBAs contributed to the strength gained by the bricks at 3, 7, 14 and 28 days air curing, while the bricks samples were categorised as high density.

Abstract

Many infrastructures need to be repaired or strengthened due to various reasons, such as unexpected deterioration and changes in performance requirement. This paper presents the following recent achievements by the authors’ group on design method for flexural strengthening of concrete structures by external bonding; (i) fracture characteristics of interface between substrate concrete and cementitious overlay, (ii) crack spacing of flexural strengthened beams, which affects debonding strength, (iii) strengths of intermediate crack (IC) debonding and end peeling, (iv) strength of concrete cover separation, and (v) effectiveness of strengthening by external bonding. A unified approach for flexural strengthening by steel plate, fiber reinforced polymer lami¬nate and cementitious overlay, for both intermediate crack (IC) debonding, including end peeling, and concrete cover separation is pre¬sented with consideration of crack spacing in the streng¬thened members. Appropriate interfacial rough¬¬¬ness to achieve efficient interface bond property is clari¬fied and the concept of effectiveness of strengthen¬ing is proposed for better strengthening design.

Abstract

Results of experimental investigation on the compressive strength of twenty solid round steel leg member specimens of lattice communication towers reinforced with one or two split pipe(s) are presented in this paper. The reinforcement was connected to the leg members either by means of U-bolts only or by means of U-bolts and end welding. It was found that bolt torque has no significant effect in the increase on the strength. It was also concluded that using two split pipes without end welding is better than using one split pipe with end welding. Based on the test results, a simplified and conservative design procedure in accordance to the Canadian and American Standards is proposed to determine the compressive strength of solid round steel leg members reinforced with split pipe(s).

Abstract

The compressive and tensile strengths of concrete made in hot weather condition decreased due to loss of mixing water caused by high evaporation. One method to overcome the problem is the use of saturated fly ash aggregate. The water content in fly ash aggregate can flow out to the hardened cement paste to continue the hydration process. This “self-curing” mechanism could produce more hydration around the surface of fly ash aggregate which sub¬sequently increases concrete strength. Experimental study has been conducted in temperature of 20o to 40o with humidity of 70% for dry curing, water curing, and nearly 100% for fog curing. Effect of self-curing could be justified as the strengths of concrete using fly ash aggregates is higher than concrete using fly ash aggregates covered with silane agent, and crushed stone aggregates. Even in high temperature, the self-curing could increase the strengths of concrete due to bond strength around the surface of each fly ash aggregates.

Abstract

Strength, shrinkage and creep of concrete in tension and compression have been determined and the relationship between those properties was studied. Direct tensile tests were applied to measure those properties in tension. The relationship of creep in tension and compression was determined based on the measurement of creep at similar stress and similar stress/strength ratio. It is found that concrete deforms more in tension than in compression. Except for concrete with a higher water/cement ratio, the use of pulverised fuel ash, ground granulated blast furnace slag, superplasticizer and shrinkage reducing admixture has no effect on strength. However, they affect creep and shrinkage of concrete.

Abstract

This research studied the occurrence of cost overruns in several type of construction projects, the causes of cost overruns, the dependency between cost overruns and projects type, cost overruns and time overruns, the causes of cost overruns and project type in several type of construction projects. Questionaires were distributed to contractors with qualification A and B in Surabaya, to get data relating to cost overruns. It is shown that the main causes in cost overruns were insufficient data and information of the project, rise of materials price, and government monetary policy. Less cost overruns happened in industrial building compared with comercial buildings and public facilities. It was also shown that cost overruns not necessarily be accompanied by time overruns and vise versa. For several type of construction projects there were no differences in the causes of cost overruns. Abstract in Bahasa Indonesia : Penelitian ini membahas terjadinya overruns biaya untuk beberapa tipe proyek konstruksi, penyebab terjadinya overruns biaya, ketergantungan antara overruns biaya dan tipe proyek, ketergantungan antara overruns biaya dan overruns waktu, ketergantungan antara penyebab overruns biaya dan beberapa tipe proyek konstruksi. Penelitian ini dilakukan terhadap kontraktor dengan kualifikasi kelas A dan B yang berkedudukan di Surabaya dengan cara mendistribusikan kuesioner untuk mendapatkan data proyek yang berhubungan dengan terjadinya overruns biaya. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penyebab yang dominan dari overruns biaya adalah data dan informasi proyek yang kurang lengkap, kenaikan harga material, kebijaksanaan keuangan dari pemerintah. Tipe proyek konstruksi berupa bangunan industri mengalami overruns biaya lebih sedikit dibandingkan tipe proyek berupa bangunan komersial maupun fasilitas umum. Proyek yang mengalami overruns biaya tidak selalu mengalami overruns waktu, demikian juga sebaliknya. Untuk beberapa tipe proyek konstruksi penyebab terjadinya overruns biaya berpengaruh sama atau hampir tidak terjadi perbedaan. Kata kunci : Overruns Biaya, Tipe Proyek, Proyek Konstruksi, Kontraktor

Abstract

The study examined the compressive strength of periwinkle shell ash (PSA) blended cement concrete in magnesium sulphate medium. Specimens were prepared from designed characteristics strength of 25 MPa. The cement replacement with PSA ranged between 0 and 40% by volume. A total of 180 cube specimens were cast and cured in water. At 28 days curing, 45 specimens each were transferred into magnesium sulphate of 1%, 3%, and 5% solution, while others were continuously cured in water and tested at 62, 92, and 152 days. The results revealed a higher loss in compressive strength with the control mix, and that it increases with increased in MgSO4 concentration and exposure period, whereas, the attack on the PSA blended cement concrete was less and the least value recorded by 10% PSA content. Therefore, the study concluded that the optimum percentage replacement of cement with 10% PSA could mitigate magnesium sulphate attack.

Abstract

The desired accuracy level of an estimate heavily relies on the availability of data and information at the time of preparing the estimate. However, an estimate often must be made when data and information are not complete. At earlier stages of project implementation at which data and information are minimal, a client is often required to prepare a cost estimate. This paper discusses the capacity factor-based cost models for buildings with total areas serving as the proxy of capacity. A total of four cost models for different building functions are presented in this paper. Based on the models, most building functions with the exception of housings, exhibit decreasing return to scale, meaning that the unit measure of cost expressed by cost per square meter declines as the size of capacity increases. The cost models are then applied to estimate the development unit cost for different demographical unit measures.

Abstract

The need to employ simulation-based investigations of fracture of civil engineering structures has been emphasised recently in literature. In this paper, three dimensional finite element simulations revealed that the cup and cone fracture process in channel-shaped notched wire for civil engineering applications begins with a slant fracture at the root of the outer edge of the channel-shaped notch and follows a slant to flat fracture sequence. These results demonstrate that the fracture origin in cup and cone fracture in notched wires for civil engineering applications does not necessarily begin with a flat fracture at the center of the wire and does not necessarily follows the flat to slant fracture sequence or propagation generally reported in literature. These results further demonstrate the need to employ simulation-based methodologies in conjunction with or as an alternative to purely experimental fractographic analysis for an accurate failure analysis of wires used for civil engineering applications.
