Abstract

Due to axial deformations generally caused by flexure, shear stress will be generated across the interface between reinforcement and surrounding concrete. This longitudinal shear stress is called bond stress and coordinates deformation between concrete and reinforcement. With increasing a member's axial deformation, bond stress finally reaches its ultimate value, bond strength, after which deformation of reinforcement and surrounding concrete will be not coordinated any more. Studies have shown that addition of nanosilica into cement-based materials improves their mechanical properties. Considering the unique characteristics of nanosilica, it seems that this material can be used in ultra-high performance concrete. Therefore, further research is needed on how to use it in concrete mixes. Due to the importance of examining bond stress and the lack of exact equations for bond stress of ultra-high performance concrete and steel reinforcement, the present study aimed to assess the bond stress between concrete and steel reinforcement.

Abstract

This study assesses the geotechnical properties of lateritic soil stabilized with Ground-nut Husk Ash. Preliminary tests were carried out on the natural soil sample for identification and classification purposes, while consistency limits tests were thereafter carried out as well. Engineering property tests such as California Bearing Ratio (CBR), Unconfined Compressive Strength (UCS) and compaction tests were performed on both the natural soil sample and the stabilized lateritic soil, which was stabilized by adding Ground-nut Husk Ash, GHA, in percentages of 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 by weight of the soil.  The results showed that the addition of GHA enhanced the strength of the soil sample. The Maximum Dry Density (MDD) reduced from 1960 kg/m3 to 1760 kg/m3 at 10% GHA by weight of soil. The Optimum Moisture Content (OMC) increased from 12.70% to 14.95%, also at 10% GHA by weight of soil. The unsoaked CBR values increased from 24.42% to 72.88% finally, the UCS values increased from 510.25 kN/m2 to 1186.46 kN/m2, for both CBR and UCS, the values were at 10% GHA by weight of soil. It was therefore concluded that GHA performs satisfactorily as a cheap stabilizing agent for stabilizing lateritic soil especially for subgrade and sub base purposes in road construction.

Abstract

Two dimensional meso-scale concrete modeling was used in finite element analysis of plain concrete beam subjected to bending. The plane stress 4-noded quadrilateral elements were utilized to model coarse aggregate, cement mortar. The effect of aggregate fraction distribution, and pores percent of the total area – resulting from air voids entrapped in concrete during placement on the behavior of plain concrete beam in flexural was detected. Aggregate size fractions were randomly distributed across the profile area of the beam. Extended Finite Element Method (XFEM) was employed to treat the discontinuities problems result from double phases of concrete and cracking that faced during the finite element analysis of concrete beam. Cracking was initiated at a small notch located at the middle of the bottom face of the concrete beam. The response of plain concrete beam subjected to pure bending via two point load application was detected using (XFEM) analysis of meso-scale concrete model. Assuming full bond between aggregate particles, and mortar at interfacial zone, the flexural strength of plain concrete beam is increased when aggregate particles size is increased, so that bending and shear stress were affected by void percentage and aggregate particles distribution. The maximum deflection at midspan was increased when the aggregate particles size decreases.

Abstract

A method utilizing divided steel plates was used to investigate the corrosion of coated steel plates with impact defect while continuously submerged in 3% NaCl solution. The polarization behavior of circular divided steel plates was first compared to that of undivided ones. Half-cell potential and polarization resistance results show similar trend in divided and undivided form especially at the later stages of exposure. The method of using circular divided steel plates was then used to monitor the macrocell as well as microcell corrosion in coated steel plates induced with defect. The test results show that the defect causes macrocell corrosion to occur between the defect and sound portions. The impact defect also caused the reduction in the polarization resistance and consequently higher microcell corrosion at the neighbouring sound coated portions.

Abstract

This paper presents a preliminary evaluation of the load-bearing performance of an existing cast steel node in a constructed tennis stadium using numerical simulations and non-destructive field tests. Given the absolute stress values of the existing cast steel node were immeasurable, the accuracy of the numerical simulations were verified by comparing the stress increments derived from numerical simulations and non-destructive field tests. During the experiment, the existing cast steel node was loaded indirectly by moving the retractable roof to three different positions (i.e. closed, semi-opened and fully-opened configurations); thus, only the stress increments were recorded. Three simplified truss models and one solid finite-element model were developed to simulate the stress distributions with the corresponding roof positions. A comparison suggests that the stress increments simulated with the developed finite-element models were in good agreement with experimental results. Therefore, the simulated stress distributions can be used to judge the load-bearing performance of the existing cast steel node.

Abstract

After the discovery and manufacturing of every accomplishment, the mankind tends to make it sustainable in terms of different aspects that one of them can be its durability. Nowadays, a science titled “health monitoring” has provided such a consideration in different fields. For example, civil engineering sciences, in various branches, aim to construct various civil engineering accomplishments, followed by the higher goals of making them durable and healthy. The present study tries to give an account about the various study fields like structural engineering, bridge construction, dam construction, hydraulic and on-beach constructions, road engineering and building, water resources management and so on along with the mentioning of the various methods extant for the implementation of such study fields. But, in between, there is an appropriate method that provides such objectives as cost-effectiveness, access to the entire required details, awareness of the civil infrastructures in order to estimate the remained lifetime of the structure in line with the continuation and/or change of the uses. Also, it has high precision and minimally influenced by the environment, so, it can be said that it has very little error in its collection of information. For instance, this method can be used to evaluate the ruination of the structures based on modal properties, which can have static or dynamic foundations such that the current state of the structure is compared to its ideal state to monitor the degree of the structure’s ruination or its soundness. In present study, it was tried to investigate the artificial intelligence science as one of the richest methods possessing all the prerequisites as well as having more traits in common with the various sub-disciplines of civil engineering so that it can be utilized more comprehensively and in a more centralized manner.

Abstract

This paper presents the experimental study of Soil-Cement Pile (SCpile) by wet mixing method in sandy soils, with the typical project at An Trung Complex apartment, Da Nang city, Vietnam. With the characteristic of soil layers is sandy soil, the strength of laboratory stabilized soils with the amount of cement from 150¸300 kg/m3 was determined. Simultaneously, the authors also performed the experiments of 20 test piles collected from the site which has cement content about 280 kg/m3 and the unconfined compressive strength qu= (4.5-6.0) MPa. After that, a full-scale model static axial compressive load tests of two single piles and a group of four piles with diameter 800 mm and 12 m length were also conducted. The experiment results show that the bearing capacity of every single pile is 1.200 kN with settlement 6.93 mm and the group of four CSpiles is 3.200 kN with settlement 5.03 mm. The results presented in the paper illustrate that SCpile is the suitable solution for foundation construction process with low cost and saving time for high rise buildings. The result shows a capable application of soil cement piles for support of high-rise buildings.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is the numerical analysis of energy loss coefficient in pipe contraction using ANSYS CFX software. To this end, the effect of the dimensionless parameters of Euler number, Reynolds number, and relative roughness on energy loss coefficient has been investigated and eventually an overall formula to determine the energy loss coefficient in these transitions has been provided. In order to solve the fluid turbulence equations in the pipe, standard K-Epsilon model has been used. For this purpose, first the geometry of pipe transitions was designed in 3-D, using Solid Works software, and then the transitions were meshed by ANSYS MESHING. The initial simulation of transitions including boundary conditions of outlet, inlet and wall, was carried out by a pre-processor called CFX-PRE. Furthermore, to solve the equations governing the fluid flow in the pipes (Navier-Stokes equations) the CFX-SOLVER was used. And finally, the results were extracted using a post-processor called CFD-POST.The results indicated that the energy loss coefficient, contrary to the findings of previous researchers, is not only related to transition geometry, but also is dependent on the Reynolds number, relative roughness of the wall and Euler number. By increasing the Reynolds Number and turbulence of fluid flow in transitions, the energy loss coefficient is reduced. Moreover, by increasing the relative roughness in the transition’s wall the energy loss coefficient is reduced. The increase in pressure fluctuation causes the increase of Euler number which leads to the linear increase of energy loss coefficient.

Abstract

In engineering structures, the safety problems are always depending on the respond of structures to different types of load. The safety assessment of a high rise building is highly depending on the analysis of environmental load. Many codes and practices have proposed many requirements for engineers in the design works. These include safety factors, limitations on damage, maximum deflections and so on. When violations in these requirements occur, the structure is believed to be dangerous. But once the problem becomes complicated such as multiple unknown loads in one building, it requires reliability analysis in the design. It must take care of all the assumptions and uncertainties in the structural design. In probabilistic assessment, any input variable is considered as an uncertainty. However, the traditional way to deal with these problems may have problems when uncertainties are large. Many probabilistic safety measures need to be reconsidered in engineering work. This paper, we will provide reliability analysis on a high rise building with consideration of wind load. All the most commonly applied reliability methods are been utilized in this analysis and compared base on the performance. The statistical influences including correlation and distribution type are also discussed in the same reliability problem.

Abstract

Physical characteristics of concrete can be enhanced by addition of different materials in various proportions. Fibrous substances, such as, steel, synthetic, glass, and natural fibers not only increase the structural and tensile strength but also cohesion of concrete by overcoming micro cracks and deficiencies in concrete. In this study, the effect of Kantharo suter fibers (animal hair) on compressive, flexural and split tensile strength, and workability of plain concrete was determined. For that, experiments were conducted on concrete cubes, beams and cylinders by adding different proportions of Kantharo suter fibers from 0.125 to 1.0 percentage by weight of cement. In each proportion of Kantharo suter fibers, three cubes, three cylinders and one beam were casted and cured for 28 days. The acquired results were compared with the plain cement concrete specimens. It was discovered from the results that 0.375 percentages of Kantharo suter fibers in normal concrete was optimum by weight of cement. The strength parameters and slump of concrete showed better results than control mixes even without using any admixture in the specimens. This study could also be enhanced using combinations of different fibers and other admixtures.
