Abstract

Bangladesh is one of the world's most disaster-prone areas. The northwest region of Bangladesh is the most seismically active region. Dinajpur is the district closest to the Himalayan frontal thrust, making it the most vulnerable to earthquake-related liquefaction. Therefore, the in-situ parameters are used to assess the liquefaction susceptibility of the subsurface geology for the Dinajpur district in terms of soil liquefaction safety factor (FS), the liquefaction potential index (LPI), and the liquefaction probability (PL). This study used deterministic and probabilistic techniques to estimate the liquefaction susceptibility of the area based on standard penetration test (SPT) N values. SPT data was collected at 160 different places within the study area. In an earthquake scenario with Mw = 6.5, liquefaction resistance is evaluated at each location using a 0.20g peak ground acceleration (PGA). The results of the SPT-based liquefaction assessment techniques were found to be considerably different. The soil strata prone to liquefaction in different zones of the city have been determined based on a common comparison. According to deterministic and probabilistic techniques, it has been found that, out of 160 locations, 36 and 50 sites are susceptible to liquefaction. Then, using geospatial techniques (IDW interpolation), hazard maps were created depending on the potential for liquefaction of particular locations. Finally, using an independent secondary dataset, the resulting hazard maps were validated to examine the developed approach. The obtained R2values for each regression analysis event were more than 0.79. Therefore, the produced hazard map may be utilized successfully for planning, management, and long-term development of the studied locations. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2022-08-07-010 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

In this work, the compressive strength of concrete made from recycled aggregate is studied and an intelligent prediction is proposed by using a novel artificial neural network (ANN), which utilizes a sigmoid function and enables the proposal of closed-form equations. An extensive literature search was conducted, which gave rise to 476 data points containing cement, sand, aggregates, recycled aggregates of fine to coarse texture, water, and plasticizer as the constituents of the concrete and the input variables of the intelligent model. The compressive strength (fc) of the recycled aggregate concrete (RAC), which was studied through multiple experiments, was the output variable of the model. The data points of concrete strength collected through literature show a consistent and sustained strength improvement with the increase in the recycled aggregate proportions. However, the outcome of the concrete compressive strength predictive model shows remarkable performance indices as follows; r is 0.99 and 0.99, R2is 0.98 and 0.97, MSE is 28.67% and 44.64%, RMSE is 5.35% and 6.68%, MAE is 4.12% and 5.01%, and MAPE is 12.73% and 13.83% for the model training and testing respectively. These results compared well with previous studies conducted on RAC with less data, different activation functions, and different techniques. Generally, the closed-form equation, which performed at an average accuracy of 97.5% with an internal consistency of 99%, has shown its potential to be applied in RAC design and construction activities for a sustainable performance evaluation of recycled aggregate concrete. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2022-08-08-011 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

This research described the effect of the mortar volume ratio on the mechanical behavior of Class CI fly ash-based geopolymer concrete. The absolute volume ratio parameters were designed to determine the effects on the mechanical properties of the geopolymer concrete. The volume ratio of the mortar to coarse aggregate voids (Rc) was increased by 0.25 increments, from 1 to 1.75, using constant parameters of 10 M NaOH at a ratio of Na2SiO3to NaOH (R). Furthermore, the alkaline to fly ash ratio (A) of 0.35 and the volume ratio of paste to fine aggregate voids (Rm) of 1.5 were based on geopolymer paste and mortar investigations previously published. The test results showed that 1) the Rc ratio influences the workability and compressive strength of geopolymer concrete; 2) the increase in the Rc ratio by 1.75 is not linear with the rise in compressive strength but produces better mechanical properties; 3) it does not affect the tensile strength of both geopolymer and OPC concretes; 4) the lower the Rc ratio, the higher the flexural strength; 5) the Rc ratio does not affect the OPC concrete and GC tensile strength; 6) the bond stress in geopolymer concrete with an Rc ratio of 1.75 is higher than in OPC concrete; and 7) Rc ratio does not affect the early strength of geopolymer concrete. The geopolymer concrete experienced an increase in compressive strength after 28 days, while the OPC concrete remained flat. The results will help develop an optimal mix design of Class CI fly ash with moderate calcium oxide in the production of geopolymer concrete. This will improve the future applications of using this process in new binding materials. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2022-08-09-012 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

The present work concerns a numerical study of the behavior of reinforced masonry (RM) structures under seismic loading. These structures are made of small hollow elements with reinforcements embedded in the horizontal joints. They were dimensioned according to the rules and codes commonly used. They are subject to vertical loads due to their own weight, and to horizontal loads due to seismic forces introduced by the accelerograms. The software used is the non-linear analysis program Drain2D, based on the finite element method, where the shear panel element was introduced. A series of calculations was performed on a number of structures at different levels, excited by three major accelerograms (El Centro, Cherchell, and Kobe). Throughout the study, our main interest is to evaluate the behaviour factor, the ductility, and the failure mode of these structures while increasing the intensity of earthquakes introduced. The results of this present study indicate that the average values of the behaviour factor and the global ductility are of the order of q≈μ≈3.00. The reinforced masonry structures studied have been broken by interstage displacement. The results given by the study are comparable to those given in the literature and in Eurocode 8. The behavior of reinforced masonry under a seismic load is similar to the behavior of reinforced concrete; it is a ductile behavior that allows the dissipation of the energy transmitted by the earthquake. These numerical studies confirm and complete the experimental work carried out by other researchers. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2022-08-10-012 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

Frequent laboratory needs during the production of concrete for infrastructure development purposes are a factor of serious concern for sustainable development. In order to overcome this trend, an intelligent forecast of the concrete properties based on multiple data points collected from various concrete mixes produced and cured under different conditions is adopted. It is equally important to consider the impact of the concrete components in this attempt to take care of the environmental risks involved in this production. In this work, 192 mixes of an ultra-high-performance lightweight concrete (UHPLC) were collected from literature representing different mixes cured under different periods and laboratory conditions. These mix proportions constitute measured variables, which are curing age (A), cement content (C), fine aggregate (FAg), plasticizer (PL), and rice husk ash (RHA). The studied concrete property was the unconfined compressive strength (Fc). This exercise was necessary to reduce multiple dependence on laboratory examinations by proposing concrete strength equations. First, the life cycle assessment evaluation was conducted on the rice husk ash-based UHPLC, and the results from the 192 mixes show that the C-783 mix (87 kg/m3 RHA) has the highest score on the environmental performance evaluation, while C-300 (75 kg/m3 RHA) with life cycle indices of 289.85 kg CO2eq. Global warming potential (GWP), 0.66 kg SO2eq. Terrestrial acidification and 5.77 m3 water consumption was selected to be the optimal choice due to its good profile in the LCA and the Fc associated with the mix. Second, intelligent predictions were conducted by using six algorithms (ANN-BP), (ANN-GRG), (ANN-GA), (GP), (EPR), and (GMDH-Combi). The results show that (ANN-BP) with performance indices of R; 0.989, R2; 0.979, mean square error (MSE); 2252.55, root mean squared error (RMSE); 42.46 MPa and mean absolute percentage error (MAPE); 4.95% outclassed the other five techniques and is selected as the decisive model. However, it also compared well and outclassed previous models, which had used gene expression programming (GEP) and random forest regression (RFR) and achieved R2of 0.96 and 0.91, respectively. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2022-08-11-03 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

The nonlinear torsional behaviour of small-scale reinforced concrete (RC) beams with continuous staggered spiral as transverse reinforcement stirrups is experimentally investigated. Twelve miniatures RC beams were tested under torsion load considering the closed shape of stirrups and compared with continuous staggered spiral ones. All miniatures beams were scaled down to be one-eighth the prototype beam size. The main parameters considered in this research are stirrup spacing and its configurations. Small scale RC beams were taken into account in the existing study because of their construction simplicity and financial feasibility. Mortar without coarse aggregate was applied instead of concrete to reduce the size effect of applying small scale models. Ongoing research trials have been carried out to obtain an efficacious approach to boost torsion failure mechanisms because brittle torsion failure of RC structural elements should be avoided. This study emphasized boosted torsion capacity, dissipated energy, and helical crack propagation. During testing, the primary cracking torsion moment, ultimate torsion moment, peak twist angle, and failure mechanism of the beams were inspected. The use of spiral stirrups showed great enhancement of the torsional behaviour of samples. It was observed that using spiral stirrups rather than closed stirrups could result in a substantial increase in torsion capacity and dissipated energy of 87.7% and 89.8%, respectively. As a result, the predicted capacities of the RC beams prototype were estimated in detail, taking account the scale down factor implemented by the authors. Values obtained based on international specifications and guidelines were used to compare the experimental results. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2022-08-11-019 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

The growth of the construction industry has expanded the demand for ceramic building products such as ceramic tiles, which constitute essential building materials. Nonetheless, a huge quantity of waste powder is produced during the polishing of ceramic tiles. The disposal of ceramic waste powder is a key environmental concern that needs to be properly addressed. The purpose of this research is to evaluate the potential of recycling ceramic waste powder as a geopolymer binder. The main objective consists of exploring the impacts of two types of ceramic waste powder (vitrified tiles and wall tiles) on the partial substitution of fly ash in geopolymer concrete. For this, concrete was prepared under ambient conditions without oven curing. Slump, compressive strength, split tensile strength, and modulus of elasticity tests were performed to measure the workability and the mechanical properties of the geopolymer concrete. Its durability was evaluated through water absorption and sorptivity tests. The microstructural behavior was investigated using scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction measurements. The investigation revealed that a 15% partial replacement of fly ash by wall-tile ceramic waste powder in geopolymer concrete gave similar compressive strength, a 3% increase in tensile strength, and a 7% improvement in the modulus of elasticity. Partial replacement of fly ash with 15% vitrified ceramic waste powder reduced sorptivity and improved the microstructure of geopolymer concrete. The findings revealed that ceramic waste powder can be used to replace 10–15% of the fly ash in M35 grade structural geopolymer concrete, which can be cured under ambient conditions. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2022-08-07-05 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

This paper investigates the behaviour of a steel column base connection subjected to a bending moment and compressive axial force. The behaviour of this connection is quite complex due to the number of components, such as the base plate, anchor rods, and stiffeners, to be considered in the numerical models. Moreover, a nonlinear three-dimensional finite element model was used to simulate the column base connection. This model can be used to analyze the moment-rotation relationship for the connection through the validation of numerical modeling with those given by the experimental test results and compared with the analytical model based on the components method of Eurocode 3. It was shown that in addition to the stiffness and bending resistance of the column base connection, other mechanical parameters, such as moment-rotation shape, stress distribution, and prying actions, can be significantly influenced by changing the properties of the components. It has been demonstrated that the anchor rod is not only affected by the axial force but also by a local moment that is not taken into consideration by the analytical model of Eurocode3. An extensive parametric study on stiffeners showed very interesting effects obtained by adding the welded stiffeners to the column base connections. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2022-08-09-02 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

The introduction and development of the base isolation systems, especially the friction isolator device, were done recently to improve the capacity of adaptive behavior. The efficiency of multi-phase friction pendulums comes from their complexity, which helps reduce the structural responses and enhance structures' energy dissipation under lateral loads. Nevertheless, the influence of various earthquakes' properties on the behavior of base-isolation systems subjected to bi-directional seismic loading is still unclear. Hence, further research and studies regarding the behavior and capability of these systems under bi-directional loading are still necessary before incorporating this device in real-life practical applications. Therefore, this paper is intended to investigate the bi-directional behavior of the friction isolator subjected to various ground motion records. In order to do so, different versions of the friction pendulum system are selected and compared within the study context. Generally, the study's results have shown that the behavior of the friction isolator is highly dependent on low values of the PGA/PGV ratio. Besides, pulse-like earthquakes considerably impact the response of the isolator compared to non-pulse-like ones. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2022-08-10-02 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

Warm Mix Asphalt (WMA) is a good pavement option due to its environmental benefits. Short-term aging is one of the critical factors that the WMA should carefully study. This research aims to study the effect of short-term aging on the warm mix asphalt that has different percentages of rubber. In this study, three percentages of rubber (1, 1.5, and 2%) by weight of aggregate are considered to be added to the WMA. By use of the Indirect Tensile Strength test for HMA, WMA unmodified and modified with CR that is exposed to an aging protocol to assess the sensitivity of asphalt mixture to moisture damage. The results show that HMA is less sensitive to moisture than WMA, and the addition of crumb rubber to WMA generally improves the resistance to moisture compared with WMA with 0% of rubber. However, as the rubber content increases to 2%, the resistance starts to decrease. Finally, SEM images were taken of rubber particles, WMA with and without rubber to investigate the changes occurring to the mixtures. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2022-08-12-09 Full Text: PDF
