Abstract

Early warning of flood hazards needs to be carried out comprehensively to avoid a higher risk of disaster. Every decision on early warning of a flood hazard is carried out in part by one party, namely the government or water resource managers. This research aims to provide a collaborative decision-making model for early warning of flood hazards through a Group Decision Support System Model (GDSS), especially in Indonesia. The novelty of this research is that the GDSS model involves more than one decision-maker and multi-criteria decision-making for early warning of flood hazards in the downstream Kali Sadar River, Mojokerto Regency, East Java Province, Indonesia. The GDSS model was developed using a hybrid method, namely the Analytical Network Process (ANP) and VlseKriterijumska Optimizacija I Kompromisno Resenje (VIKOR). There was more than one decision result; voting was carried out using the BORDA method to produce the decision. The test results of GDSS were obtained using a Spearman rank correlation coefficient of 0.8425 and matrix confusion, an accuracy value of 86.7%, a precision value of 86.7%, a recall value of 86.7%, and an f-measure of 86.7%. Based on the test results, good results were obtained from the GDSS model. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2024-010-02-018 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

Traffic congestion has been considered one of the most serious global issues confronting all nations in recent years. Basrah City’s highways in general, and particularly the highways surrounding and leading to the University of Basrah, the campus of Bab Azzubair, and the college complex, have experienced traffic congestion and higher delays. The focus of this study is to propose some solutions to mitigate traffic congestion and higher delays on these highways. Field traffic data and questionnaires where SPSS was used to analyse the collected data, and Highway Capacity Software (HCS 2010) was used to assess the level of service (LOS) on the highways. The results showed that the LOS reaches level F on Baghdad Street, while other streets range from level B to level C. Two proposals have been suggested to improve the LOS on Baghdad Street: (1) applying a park-and-ride system; and (2) widening Baghdad Street by adding two lanes in each direction. The LOS for both proposals has been evaluated, and the results showed that the first proposal performed better. The analysis of the collected data also showed that public transportation services are very limited on the highways surrounding and leading to the Bab Azzubair campus. Therefore, public transportation services should be promoted and enhanced in Basrah City. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-10-07 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

This study conducts the valuation of the urban Green Open Spaces (GOS) in Jakarta (Indonesia) using the life satisfaction approach (LSA). We integrated the important elements of the LSA, such as housing structure and environmental facilities, into a comprehensive valuation model (using hedonic variables). By explicitly acknowledging the limited application of these methodologies in developing nations, this study endeavors to provide a context-specific understanding of the economic value of GOS in Jakarta. The LSA model, a novel non-market valuation tool, employs community life satisfaction as its primary metric. In this study, we analyzed the satisfaction levels of residents of Jakarta based on a 10-point scale; the responses of a total of 1,592 participants were collected through online questionnaires in 2021 (during the pandemic). We considered various independent variables, including socioeconomic factors, housing attributes, environmental facilities, location amenities, and the presence of GOS. The analysis involved LSA and ordinary least squares (OLS) models in the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS). The results indicate that several variables, such as longer residence duration, good employment status, high income “over 20 million Indonesian Rupiah (IDR); approximately USD 1281.56”, and access to more shopping centers, positively influenced the life satisfaction of the residents, which is in line with the studies conducted in western countries. Surprisingly, the economic evaluation of urban GOS portrayed a limited impact on the residents’ life satisfaction, while negative aspects, e.g., the presence of cemeteries around residential areas (19.1%), impacted the residents significantly. Urban parks did not portray statistical significance in influencing the residents’ life satisfaction, despite having a positive impact across all radii of urban regions. Urban forests exhibited a positive impact, mainly within the 100–500-m radius, with a significant impact on resident life satisfaction. Our attempt to assess the values of landscape amenities in Jakarta using LSA marks a pioneering effort in the field of environmental science with respect to community preferences. Consequently, this study contributes significantly to the evolving yet limited literature in this domain. The results differ from those of the Global North research, emphasizing the need for context-specific urban planning strategies. Our study offers valuable insights for urban planners and government entities and can guide GOS development to enhance urban sustainability and community satisfaction. The implications extend to urban centers in Indonesia and other developing countries, emphasizing the importance of optimizing limited urban spaces based on community preferences. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2024-010-04-010 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

This study investigated the use of lightweight self-compacting concrete (LWSCC), which represents a trend in producing high-performance concrete, as slabs in steel-concrete composite beams with headed studs as shear connectors. Three push-out test specimens were fabricated and tested to assess the shear strength and behavior of M16-headed stud connectors embedded in LWSCC. Based on the push-out test results, six steel-LWSCC composite beams were manufactured and tested as simply supported composite beams. In addition, a steel-normal weight self-compacting concrete (NWSCC) composite beam specimen with full shear interaction was manufactured and tested for comparison. The main variables taken into account in this study were the degree of shear interaction and regions of bending moment (sagging or hogging). It was observed that the increase in degree of shear interaction from 50 to 100% improved the ultimate carrying capacity, the service load, and the stiffness of the tested steel-LWSCC beam specimens by a ratio reached to 96, 95, and 122%, respectively, when subjected to sagging bending moments and by a ratio reached to 57, 59, and 134%, respectively, when subjected to hogging bending moments. In addition, it was noted that the deflection and the end slip values for steel-LWSCC specimens under a sagging bending moment are smaller than those under a hogging bending moment, which have the same degree of shear interaction and at the same load level. Moreover, the experimental results show that the ultimate carrying capacity, service load, and stiffness values for the steel-NWSCC composite beam were higher than those for the steel-LWSCC beam specimens that have the same properties, while the ultimate deflection and end slip were smaller. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-11-04 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

Fly ash, an industrial byproduct, is used as both a building material and a soil stabilizer due to its pozzolanic properties. Moreover, it is challenging to extrapolate the results based on an inadequate amount of laboratory data because of the non-homogeneous character of the soil and the diversity in the chemical properties of fly ash. This review article fills in the gaps by providing an overview of the existing data related to the geotechnical characteristics of expansive soil stabilized with fly ash. The chemical composition of fly ash is provided in terms of oxides of various elements to help identify the kinds produced in different nations. Additionally, information about the physical and geotechnical characteristics of fly ash blended expansive soil is provided in order to comprehend the influence of the fly ash's chemical composition and the expansive soil's fines percentage. While the geotechnical property comprises Atterberg's limit, compaction, UCS, shear strength, free swelling index, CBR, and consolidation, the physical property includes specific gravity and durability. Shear modulus, damping ratio, and Poisson's ratio are used to describe the dynamic properties of the modified expansive soil. The published data in this field and the research gap will be identified by the researchers with the aid of this article. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-SP2024-010-06 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

The disposal of waste materials and their adverse effects on the environment have become a worldwide concern, disturbing the fragile ecological equilibrium. With growing awareness of sustainability in the construction industry, it is of great importance to recycle waste materials for producing high-performance concrete (HPC). This aligns with the twelfth Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) of the United Nations, emphasizing responsible production and consumption, especially concerning the production of HPC using waste materials and energy-efficient methods. The review evaluates the purposeful utilization of recycled waste materials to improve the engineering characteristics of HPC, taking into consideration pertinent literature. It encompasses a comparative evaluation of strength development, water absorption, microstructures, and x-ray diffraction (XRD) analyses of HPC manufactured with different types of recycled waste materials. The key result of the review showed that using incinerated bottom ash (IBA) below 25% and incorporating 40% copper slag can enhance HPC’s mechanical performance. Additionally, recycled coarse aggregate (RCA) can replace up to 50% of conventional aggregate in self-compacting HPC with minimal impact on durability properties. In HPC cement substitution research, fly ash, silica fume, and metakaolin are prominent due to their availability, with fly ash showing remarkable durability when used as a 15% cement replacement. This thorough review offers valuable insights for optimizing the utilization of recycled waste materials in the development of environmentally friendly HPC. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-11-020 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

Investigating the modification factors as a critical seismic design tool, delineating the anticipated level of inelastic behavior within structural systems during seismic events. Both damping and ductility are included in this factor, particularly at movement nearing maximum capacity. Moreover, it offers valuable insights into buildings' response during earthquakes and the anticipated behavior of structures compliant with building codes during design earthquakes. Essentially, it mirrors the structure's capacity to dissipate energy via an inelastic mechanism. In this research, the infill (RC) structures with various structural irregularities were focused. The selected irregularities included dimension, elevation, and mass. Infill location, number of bays, and seismic zone were the expected R factors for RC frames. Non-linear static pushover analysis was adopted in numerical simulation. The available data gathered from the literature was used to validate the outcomes of the developed models. Additionally, the effects of different types of soil were taken into consideration, and the research results demonstrated that the value of the modification factor (R) for change in stiffness and mass of high-rise buildings for bare and infill (RC) structures is less compared to irregular (RC) structures. It was concluded that the same structure with different types of soil and different parameters has a great effect on the value of R for bare and infill regular and irregular (RC) structures. Furthermore, recommendations for accurate R estimation for RC structures were discussed. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2024-010-08-09 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

A one-year study was conducted to evaluate the impact of air pollution and roof coating on runoff quality. An existing 440 sq meter bitumen roof of a single-story building was coated with an extensive green roof layer on one half. Rainfall and runoff samples from both roofs were collected during 11 rainfall events after the separation of the first flush. The study monitored several key parameters, including pH, electrical conductivity (EC), turbidity, chemical oxygen demand (COD), ammonium nitrogen, nitrate nitrogen, and phosphates. The study revealed that both types of roofs altered the rainfall quality, but the changes caused by the green roof were more substantial. Although the retention of runoff from green roofs has a widely acknowledged positive impact on collecting systems, our study shows that green roofs also result in a 7.5-fold increase in COD concentrations, a 5.4-fold increase in the sum of ammonium and nitrate nitrogen, and a 2.3-fold increase in phosphates compared to bitumen roofs. A clear link between the quality of rainwater/runoff and air pollution was not established. The study's findings will aid in the development and management of local rainwater harvesting systems and enhance global understanding of the primary quality parameters of various roof types, particularly in regions with air pollution. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2024-010-05-015 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

The dapped end beam members have a special end with low depth at the support area, which results in a weak area against shear stresses. Classical structural analysis doesn’t capture the precise steel reinforcement interaction at the dapped zone area. The main objectives of this study are to investigate the strength of the dapped end area and to analyze stresses in the steel reinforcement to evaluate the shear failure mechanism at the re-entrant corner. The experimental tests conducted on RC beam samples, in addition to the numerical simulation of these samples by a finite element program, have been compared with a mathematical model. The experimental program highlighted the strains in the steel reinforcement in the dapped region to calculate the magnitude of the stresses in the steel reinforcement. In the experimental program, six dapped beams were fabricated with a length of 3 m, a width of 150 mm, and a depth of 300 mm. The notched end has a 150-mm depth and 150-mm height. These beams were loaded by a concentrated load near support to investigate the shear strength capacity. From the results for steel reinforcement strain, it is found that hanger and horizontal steel reinforcements interact to provide dapped end shear strength. The study proposes a new approach to computing shear strength capacity at the re-entrant corner by adding the contributions of the horizontal and hanger steel reinforcement using an appropriate proportion strain factor. This method revealed greater carrying capacity for the dapped end beam compared with other common structural methods. The results of the numerical analysis were done by the ABAQUS finite element program, showing the same behavior as the experimental work. This study proved the common contribution of hanger and horizontal re-entrant corner steel reinforcement and proposed a new formula to determine the updated nominal shear strength. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-12-015 Full Text: PDF
