Abstract

The ability of a structure to dissipate energy through inelastic behavior is reflected in the response reduction factor (R), which is influenced by redundancy, ductility, and overstrength. Accurate determination of R is crucial for seismic design. This study focuses on determining the response factor for reinforced concrete (RC) structures with various irregularities. Non-linear static pushover analysis using SAP2000 was employed for numerical simulations to assess the impact of soil-structure interaction (SSI). The analysis included elevational and in-plan irregularities, revealing that buildings with irregular vertical geometries have lower inelastic seismic capacities compared to regular buildings. Consequently, R should be reduced by 15–40% from the ECP 2020 standard before the design phase for such structures. Irregularity was found to have a significant impact on weak soil conditions (C), leading to a reduction in R of 20.3% and 13.1% for fixed and isolated supports, respectively, on loose soil. Additionally, stiffer base soils were associated with higher R values for the same structure. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2024-010-03-07 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

Developing of green construction and reducing CO2emissions in the environment is a priority for industry in the coming years. Recycling fly ash in the concrete industry is a well-known way to reduce environmental impact. Aside from this benefit, there are numerous other positive effects of incorporating fly ash into concrete; however, in this research, the objective is to replace cement with a different percentage of non-class fly ash with high CaO, more than 42%. The analyzed variables are non-class fly ash properties, the effect of fly ash presence on the main properties of concrete and examining the optimum of non-class fly ash in ordinary concrete C-25/30 and high-performance concrete C-50/60. All investigations took place in the laboratory by producing 24 different mix designs and more than 1000 specimens to examine: consistency, setting time, shrinkage, and compressive strength in the short and long terms of curing. Recycling industrial waste in new construction, especially fly ash because of its non-uniform properties, still has some obstacles and is not a practical issue, but the future must be environmentally friendly, and this research proves that the objective of producing sustainable ordinary and high-performance concrete was achieved by replacing 40% of cement with non-class high CaO content fly ash. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2024-010-03-02 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

This research has investigated the sustainability and climate resilience of courtyard houses of adobe architecture in the UAE. It analyzed design effectiveness in terms of power consumption, CO2 emissions, thermal comfort, and daylight use, employing simulations to assess building structures and construction systems. Adopting a three-phase mixed-methods approach, the study began with a literature review on courtyard house design, construction, and environmental performance, emphasizing sustainable design and passive ventilation. The second phase involved a case study of a UAE courtyard house (Al Midfa), including site visits, interviews, and energy consumption and CO2 emission data collection. The final phase used building energy simulation software to model energy performance and evaluate passive ventilation's role in reducing energy consumption and CO2 emissions, with simulation results validated against real-world data. Advanced Sefaira simulations with the Energy Plus Engine identified one out of seven modified models (M5) as exceptionally thermally efficient, influencing the architectural design of the Al Midfa house. To transform the Al Midfa house into a sustainable climate-resistant structure, the research suggested retrofitting with new glazing and insulation on the inside of external walls and on the roof surface at a combined U-value of 0.4 W/m2to enhance energy efficiency without altering the exterior. A notable innovation was the use of injected cellulose insulation in wall systems, combining efficient insulation with architectural aesthetics, signifying a shift towards energy-efficient interior modifications. The study's findings contribute to the evolution of traditional house designs toward climate change resilience and a sustainable future. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2024-010-03-018 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

The construction industry still faces various challenges in some developing countries, and one of the problems is the procurement of goods and services. The allocation of public procurement funds is significant to the national GDP. It is essential to conduct comprehensive research on government procurement in the construction industry in Indonesia due to the rapid growth of the construction industry in the last decade. This research focuses on the procurement of construction goods and services in the Ministry of Public Works and Housing by looking at the perception of the government as the project owner. This research aims to identify a model of critical success factors to improve public procurement performance in the construction industry from the government's perspective. The research method includes two stages, namely, the development of critical success, which consists of crucial factors and indicators that affect the performance of public procurement in the construction industry. It is a literature study of relevant previous research results from various countries that affect these critical success factors. Then, the second stage is a survey of experts' perceptions through questionnaires. The questionnaire data analysis used SEM-PLS software to quantify the relationship model of critical success factors to improve the performance of government procurement of goods and services in the construction industry. Data processing results include: business process factors affect 97.1%, regulatory factors affect 90.1%, information system factors affect 63.1%, human resource factors affect 56.1%, organizational factors affect 46.1%, and monitoring and evaluation factors affect 38%. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2024-010-03-013 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

Presently, there is a notable surge in infrastructure development, leading to a heightened occurrence of accidents within the construction sector. This trend has positioned the construction industry as one of the most accident-prone areas compared to other sectors. This suggests that the current construction safety audit procedures have not proven effective in preventing accidents. Typically, audits are conducted primarily during the construction phase, with infrequent assessments during the design phase. According to the Szymberski theory, actions taken during the design phase significantly influence the occurrence of accidents more than those taken during construction. Previous research has discussed a lot about safety management systems. However, it has not discussed how to assure the quality of its implementation. Considering this, the research aims to (a) identify the processes, elements, activities, sub-elements, objectives, criteria, and risks associated with construction safety audits and (b) formulate an integrated, risk-based audit process covering both the design and construction phases. This qualitative research employed the Delphi method to gather insights from construction safety experts, and the developed audit process utilized a risk management approach. The resulting audit process integrates principles from ISO 19011:2018 and Regulation of the Minister of Public Works and Housing Number 10 of 2021. The findings revealed 34 activities in audit program management, 34 activities in audit implementation, and 32 sub-elements in audit criteria. These components are incorporated into a comprehensive construction safety audit framework, organizing audit processes, activities, and criteria. This framework underscores that improving construction safety performance is not solely confined to the construction phase but extends to the design phase as well. The audit results serve as a foundation for continuous improvement, aiding in enhancing safety performance and preventing accidents within the construction industry. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2024-010-03-08 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

Under pressure from surface water pollution and climate change, groundwater becomes a critical water source. Information on groundwater quality could contribute to effective groundwater management. This study was carried out to utilize multivariate statistical analysis and the groundwater quality index (GWQI) to evaluate groundwater quality in Ca Mau Province, Vietnam. Twenty-five groundwater samples from residential-urban areas, cemetery areas, landfill areas, and saline intrusion areas were collected for this study. Groundwater quality was evaluated using the National Technical Regulation on Groundwater Quality (QCVN 09-MT:2015/BTNMT) and GWQI. Principal component analysis (PCA) was used to identify potential polluting sources and key variables influencing groundwater quality. Cluster analysis (CA) was applied to cluster groundwater quality, and the sites were recommended for future monitoring. The results revealed that NH4+-N contaminated groundwater in the landfill area, while the saline intrusion area was polluted by TDS and NH4+-N. The groundwater quality classified as excellent, good, poor, and very poor accounted for 44, 40%, 12%, and 4%, respectively. Cluster analysis divided groundwater quality into four groups, mainly based on the presence of NH4+-N and TDS. Nine groundwater sampling locations could be removed from the current groundwater quality program but still ensuring representativeness as a result of CA. PCA proposed two main sources of variation in groundwater quality at each residential-urban area: the cemetery area, the landfilling area, and the saline intrusion area. The groundwater parameters (i.e., pH, TDS, permanganate index, NH4+-N, NO3--N, and Fe) should be continued to monitor. Domestic and industrial wastewater discharge, leachate from cemeteries and landfills, the nature of groundwater aquifers, and seawater intrusion could be potential sources of groundwater variation. The current findings provide scientific information for local environmental authorities to manage and monitor groundwater quality in the study area. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2024-010-03-03 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

This article investigates the bond- behavior of Rectangular Concrete-filled stainless-steel tubular (RCFSST) columns under post-fire conditions. The main objective of this research was to obtain τ-s relationship of RCFSST columns under the combined effects of high temperature and concrete age. A total of sixteen specimens, including four reference specimens, were tested with different parameters, namely: i) temperature (600 °C, 800 °C & 1000 °C) ii) different concrete ages (30 days, 60 days, 90 days & 180 days). Analyzing the τ-s curves of the test specimens, chemical adhesion and micro-locking were the principal forces contributing to bond strength at lower concrete ages under post-fire conditions. At a higher concrete age, RCFSST specimens displayed a longer curve after the inflection point, indicating the contribution of macro-locking forces in amplifying the bond-strength. Five distinct curve types were found from the experiments. Type 1 curves with three stages, i) initial linear, ii) non-linear, and ii) final linear stage, had a higher frequency among the other types. For 90-day cured specimens, a decline in bond strength was observed at higher temperatures, but for 180 days cured specimens, a significant rise was seen under post-fire conditions. A new set of τ-s relations for RCFSST columns with different concrete ages under post-fire was established. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2024-010-03-019 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

Structures known as modular buildings are made in factories and then moved to construction sites, where they are assembled. The efficacy of modular structures under many uncertainties has to be thoroughly investigated as demand rises; fire is one such uncertainty. The purpose of this study is to ascertain how high temperature affects the components of modular constructions. In the current study, hollow steel columns and beams were taken into account as components of a modular construction. Using ABAQUS, several situations were examined depending on the span length to determine the important locations of the members. Experimental research was conducted on the critical regions identified by the analysis, and the results were contrasted with those of the analysis. A high-temperature localized heating furnace was used for the experimental testing. The findings demonstrated that for spans of 250 mm and 500 mm, the central area of the beams was essential, and the load-carrying capacity was six times less than that of heating at the extremities of the beams. Similar to the beams, columns exhibited less fluctuation than the beams and were weaker in the bottom area when exposed to high temperature. When compared to other places, the capacity was reduced by 1.1 times, and in Case 1, the capacity reduction with regard to loading was 1.68 times greater. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2024-010-03-014 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

The purpose of the study is an experimental determination of the stress-related characteristics of the structural steel produced in the Republic of Kazakhstan for use in conventional and earthquake-resistive construction. Since 2015, the construction industry has been using European regulatory documents—Eurocodes—as a statutory framework. In particular, the Eurocode 1993 for steel structures and the Eurocode 1998 for the design of earthquake-resistant structures However, the study of stress-related properties of structural steel using experimental methods of ISO standards has not been performed. Therefore, in the construction industry of the Republic of Kazakhstan, steel-work structures have been used in fairly limited volume since 2015. The experimental studies were conducted on 7 types of structural steel with thicknesses of 8, 10, and 20 mm manufactured by Arcelor Mittal. The yield strength, ultimate tensile strength (breaking stress), and tensile strength at break were studied. The experimental studies were carried out on the basis of ISO standards. In each test run, 5 samples were used. In two series, 20 samples each were tested, which made it possible to estimate the yield strength and strength distribution functions. The correlation relationships between Brinell hardness and yield and strength limits have been studied. As a result of experimental studies, it was found that the strength and deformability parameters fully comply with the requirements of Eurocode 1993. Based on the application of the Student's test, it is revealed that the distribution functions of yield strength and resistance correspond to the normal law (Gaussian function). The calculation of a three-story, two-span residential building with box section columns for construction in an area with a seismicity of 8 points is performed by the finite element method. The work results will significantly increase the scope of Kazakhstani structural steel use in seismic and conventional areas of the Republic of Kazakhstan. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2024-010-03-09 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

The present research focuses on assessing the fresh and hardened properties as well as the durability performance of alkali-activated mortar in an ambient environment and the impact of integrating nano-alumina (NA) at a 2% ratio as a substitute for binder materials in alkali-activated mortar (AAM). Additionally, it assesses the effectiveness of alkali-activated mortar employing different blends of ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) and fly ash as environmentally friendly substitute building materials. Fly ash (FA), ground granulated blast slag (GGBS), and an equal mixture of GGBS and FA make up these binder ingredients. As a result, the main binders contain GGBS, FA, or a 50/50 mixture of GGBS and FA. The sodium hydroxide (NaOH) concentration is fixed at a 12-molarity level, and the alkali activator solution to binder ratio is kept at 0.5. In the alkali solution, the ratio of sodium silicate to sodium hydroxide is always 2.5. The study evaluates various properties of AAM, such as compressive strength, flowability, unit weight, flexural tensile strength, and durability, under ambient conditions at a steady room temperature of 23±3°C. Results indicate that AAM mixtures devoid of NA exhibit a higher flow rate compared to those containing NA. Nonetheless, the flowability of AAM mixtures aligns well with standard requirements, being modest yet adequate. Significantly, the inclusion of NA enhances the mechanical properties and durability of AAM, demonstrating its beneficial effects. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2024-010-03-016 Full Text: PDF
