Abstract

Cement industry consumes high energy and produces major emissions to the environment. In order to reduce the effects (environmental impact, energy, and resources) caused by conventional materials, various by-products and pozzolonic material are used to achieve sustainable concrete. Assessing the concrete performance based on multiple conflicting attributes is decisive and compelling. It is difficult to choose an alternative among the Supplementary Cementitious Materials (SCM) considering a set of quantitative performance attributes. Hence, the present study utilizes the theories of decision making to prioritize an alternative environmentally and technologically. The purpose of the present study is to observe the sustainable performance of five different concretes made of OPC, Fly ash, GGBS, Metakaolin and Composite Cement for a particular grade of concrete. The study has considered workability, strength attribute (compressive strength, split tensile and flexural strength) and durability attribute (Sorptivity and RCPT) at their respective optimum replacements. To prioritize an alternative material considering quantitative attributes, Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) is utilized. From the results, it is observed that considering all attributes, flyash based concrete has higher performance and is prioritized among others. The developed approach facilitates the decision-makers in the selection of a sustainable alternative.

Abstract

In this study, an experimental investigation had conducted for six high strength laced reinforced concrete one-way slabs to discover the behavior of laced structural members after being exposed to fire flame (high temperature). Self-compacted concrete (SCC) had used to achieve easy casting and high strength concrete. All the adopted specimens were identical in their compressive strength of ( , geometric layout 2000 750 150 mm and reinforcement specifics except those of lacing steel content, three ratios of laced steel reinforcement of (0.0021, 0.0040 and 0.0060) were adopted. Three specimens were fired with a steady state temperature of  for two hours duration and then after the specimens were cooled suddenly by spraying water. The simply supported slabs were tested for flexure behavior with two line loads applied in the middle third of the slab (four-point bending test). The average residual percentage of cubic compression strength and splitting tensile strength were 57.5% and 50% respectively. The outcomes indicated that the residual bending strength of the burned slabs with laced ratios (0.0021, 0.004, 0.006) were (72.56, 70.54 and 70.82%) respectively. However; an increase in the deflection was gained to be (11.34, 14.67 and 17.22%) respectively with respect to non-burned specimens.

Abstract

Calculating the natural frequency of dams is an essential part of its seismic behavior analysis. Therefore, it is important to calculate the natural frequency. This paper aims simulation and analysis the finite element (FE) model of the Koyna concrete gravity as a case study. For the investigation of the suitable mesh size to achievement the grid independence, the element size considered as a variable parameter and calculated its optimized value by using the Response Surface Optimization (RSO) method. In the independent grid, the Error Contour utilized for controlling mesh quality, which indicates fast variations of the energy in the adjacent elements and can recognize parts of the model that has a high error in calculating responses. The modal response of the dam with a rigid and flexible foundation with and without mass were appraised. The results indicated that modal frequencies in the condition of with and without Pre-stress were different value in all cases. Moreover, the frequency of first four modes by increasing mass and decreasing the stiffness of foundation, frequencies in the case without initial condition (without Pre-stress) has a slightly increased and in the case with initial condition (Pre-stress) had considerable decrease.

Abstract

Deposits of oil sands, bitumen, extra-heavy oil, and heavy oil appear in more than 70 countries all over the world and the fraction of oil recovered gradually increases. High content of poly-condensed high molecular weight oil components (PHMOCs), which may amount up to 50-60% depending on conditions of oil formation, is the main difference of heavy oil and bitumen from conventional oil. PHMOCs can lay the foundation for the preparation of a large number of valuable materials due to their structural manifold and their potential still not discovered to full extent. This work is devoted to the study of the effect of PHMOCs on properties of the composition materials prepared from polyethylene matrix. An «asphalt» – industrial product of deasphalting of tar, as well as asphaltenes and resins isolated from heavy oil, were used as a source of PHMOCs. HDPE and fillers were characterized using MALDI, FTIR, DSC and TGA. For the new composite materials we evaluated the physicomechanical properties, the thermal decomposition characteristics (by TGA), and the accumulation rate of carbonyl groups in the oxidized polymer (on FTIR). Studies of new composite materials showed that the introduction of filler in an amount of up to 4% in a polyethylene matrix does not lead to a significant change in the physicomechanical properties, but for a number of parameters they are improved. It also figured out that the addition of PHMOCs to polyethylene makes it unnecessary to stabilize the resulting compositions with stabilizers of thermal oxidative degradation. Results of experimental studies indicate that industrial residue - «asphalt» is a promising filler and low cost of this stock renders it perfect source for the industry of polymer materials.

Abstract

Glass Fibre Reinforcement Polymer (GFRP) reinforcements are currently used as internal reinforcements for all flexural members due to their resistance to corrosion, high strength to weight ratios, the ability to handle easily and better fatigue performance under repeated loading conditions. Further, these GFRP reinforcements prove to be the better alternative to conventional reinforcements. The design methodology for flexural components has already come in the form of codal specifications. But the design code has not been specified for beam-column joints reinforced internally with GFRP reinforcements. The present study is aimed to assess the behaviour of exterior beam-column joint reinforced internally with GFRP reinforcements numerically using the ABAQUS software for different properties of materials, loading and support conditions. The mechanical properties of these reinforcements are well documented and are utilized for modelling analysis. Although plenty of literature is available for predicting the joint shear strength of beam-column joints reinforced with conventional reinforcements numerically, but no such study is carried for GFRP reinforced beam-columns joints. As an attempt, modelling of beam-column joint with steel and with GFRP rebars is carried out using ABAQUS software. The behaviour of joints under monotonically increasing static and cyclic load conditions. Interpretation of all analytical findings with results obtained from experiments. The analysis and design of beam-column joints reinforced with GFRP reinforcements are carried out by strut and tie model. Strut and Tie models are based on the models for the steel reinforced beam-column joints.  The resulting strut and tie model developed for the GFRP reinforced beam-column joints predicts joint shear strength. Joint shear strength values obtained from the experiments are compared with the analytical results for both the beam-column joints reinforced with steel and GFRP reinforcements. The joint shear strength predicted by the analytical tool ABAQUS is also validated with experimental results.

Abstract

The article discusses fiber-optic sensors (FOS) based on the Bragg gratings for measuring systems for diagnostics of stress-strain state. Currently, such diagnostic systems are widely used in construction, industry and civil engineering. The physical principle of deformation diagnostics using FOS. The issues of mounting the sensor on the measured area (detail) are separately discussed. The principle of processing the hardware and software of sensors based on Bragg gratings is described. Research method - bench experiments that were carried out on an equal-deformation beam in order to evaluate the change in the width of the reflected FOS peak at different lengths recorded by the Bragg gratings in order to determine the optimal one. The change in the spectrum of the reflected peak under various deforming influences was monitored. Based on the results obtained, recommendations are made on the use of gratings of various lengths in the diagnostic systems for the stress-strain state of parts and assemblies for civil engineering tasks.

Abstract

This study explores the impact of runoff curve number (CN) on the hydrological model outputs for the Morai watershed, Sindh-Pakistan, using the Soil Conservation Service Curve Number (SCS-CN) method. The SCS-CN method is an empirical technique used to estimate rainfall-runoff volume from precipitation in small watersheds, and CN is an empirically derived parameter used to calculate direct runoff from a rainfall event. CN depends on soil type, its condition, and the land use and land cover (LULC) of an area. Precise knowledge of these factors was not available for the study area, and therefore, a range of values was selected to analyze the sensitivity of the model to the changing CN values. Sensitivity analysis involves a methodological manipulation of model parameters to understand their impacts on model outputs. A range of CN values from 40-90 was selected to determine their effects on model results at the sub-catchment level during the historic flood year of 2010. The model simulated 362 cumecs of peak discharge for CN=90; however, for CN=40, the discharge reduced substantially to 78 cumecs (a 78.46% reduction). Event-based comparison of water volumes for different groups of CN values?90-75, 80-75, 75-70, and 90-40 ?showed reductions in water availability of 8.88%, 3.39%, 3.82%, and 41.81%, respectively. Although it is known that the higher the CN, the greater the discharge from direct runoff and the less initial losses, the sensitivity analysis quantifies that impact and determines the amount of associated discharges with changing CN values. The results of the case study suggest that CN is one of the most influential parameters in the simulation of direct runoff. Knowledge of accurate runoff is important in both wet (flood management) and dry periods (water availability). A wide range in the resulting water discharges highlights the importance of precise CN selection. Sensitivity analysis is an essential facet of establishing hydrological models in limited data watersheds. The range of CNs demonstrates an enormous quantitative consequence on direct runoff, the exactness of which is necessary for effective water resource planning and management. The method itself is not novel, but the way it is proposed here can justify investments in determining the accurate CN before initiating mega projects involving rainfall-runoff simulations. Even a small error in CN value may lead to serious consequences. In the current study, the sensitivity analysis challenges the strength of the results of a model in the presence of ambiguity regarding CN value.

Abstract

The determination of fundamental period of vibration for structures is essential to earthquake design. The current codes provide empirical formulas to estimate the approximated fundamental period and these formulas are dependent on building material, height of structure or number of stories. Such a formulation is excessively conservative and unable to account for other parameters such as: length to width ratios, vertical element size and floors area. This study investigated the fundamental periods of mid-rise reinforced concrete moment resisting frames. A total of 13 moment resisting frames were analyzed by ETABS 15.2.2, for gross and cracked eigenvalue analysis and Extreme Loading for Structures Software® or ELS, for non-linear dynamic analysis. The estimated periods of vibration were compared with empirical equations, including current code equations. As expected, the results show that building periods estimated based on simple equations provided by earthquake design codes in Europe (EC8) and America (UBC97 and ASCE 7-10) are significantly smaller than the periods computed using nonlinear dynamic analysis. Based on the results obtained from the analyzed models, equations for calculating period of vibration are proposed. These proposed equations will allow design engineers to quickly and accurately estimate the fundamental period of moment resisting frames with taking different length to width ratios, vertical element size, floors area and building height into account. The interaction between reduction factor and the reduced period of vibration is studied, and it is found that values of maximum period of vibration can be used as an alternative method to calculate the inelastic base shear value without taking reduction factors in consideration.
