Abstract

The presented study aims at the development of an approach, which will enable selection of optimal measures for mitigation of water stress. The approach is based on two software pillars – Water Evaluation and Planning System (WEAP) and MatLab, which are applied in combination. The approach has three main steps: 1) modeling of the river basin with WEAP software 2) selecting mitigation measures and preparation of intervention curves and 3) running of an optimization using MatLab to select the mitigation measures. The set of the applied mitigation measures includes: reducing urban water demand and supply, reducing water demand for irrigation, and rehabilitation of the irrigation system. The result of the performed optimization with objectives set as minimal investment and water abstraction shows that in the Vit River basin the best combination of mitigation measures are a change in irrigation practice as well as reducing leakage in the irrigation distribution network and in the municipal distribution network. The optimization results show that 36% of the abstracted water could be saved if 2.1 million EUR were invested. The approach which was developed and applied in this work proved its suitability for facilitating decision making for water stress management at a river basin level. Doi: 10.28991/cej-2020-03091602 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

The asphalt pavement is exposed to the natural environment, which is affected by Climate change such as temperature, rain, ultraviolet, and other environmental conditions. This study aimed to establish the asphalt binder performance of Yemen so that the asphalt pavement can be designed to resist the distresses of rutting and cracking that occurred due to seasonal temperature changes and rainfall. The first step of determining the binder performance is to establish high and low temperatures, as well as rainfall because the asphalt binder is a temperature and rainfall sensitive viscoelastic material. To study the climatic zoning of asphalt pavement in Yemen, the data of temperature and rainfall in 19 provinces of Yemen in the past 10 years were collected and comprehensively analyzed, and the variations laws of them were analyzed. According to the Chinese approach, the climatic zoning of Yemen's asphalt pavement was divided. The moisture temperature coefficient was introduced, and its probability distribution state was also analyzed. The standard of the moisture temperature coefficient was suggested and the asphalt pavement climate zones based on the moisture temperature coefficient were determined. The results indicated that the main influencing factors of asphalt pavement in Yemen were the temperature rise and rainfall, and the climate zones of asphalt pavement were divided into different zones such as 1-2-1, 2-2-2, 1-2-2, and 3-1-2. According to the principle of equal probability, the moisture temperature coefficient was found to be 18, and the asphalt pavement climate zoning map was drawn. The findings of this study are highly significant and provide valuable decision support for pavement management and improve the transportation system. Doi: 10.28991/cej-2020-03091613 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

Infill walls increase the strength and stiffness of the reinforced concrete frames, but they usually are not considering in design. However, when the infills are considered in the design, the opening for doors/windows necessitates investigation as well. This research work aims to investigate the effect of perforations (openings) in the infill walls on the performance of infilled RC frames, in other words, this research investigates the number of infill walls in infilled RC frames. Based on the current construction practices in Pakistan, two full scales perforated infilled RC frames were constructed in the laboratory. One infilled RC frame has an eccentric door and window (specimen-1) while the other has only window at its centre (specimen-2). Both the specimens were tested against reverse cyclic loading (quasi-static test). From the experimental testing, it was found that infilled RC frame having less amount of opening in infill wall has more resistance to lateral loads, have more stiffness and dissipated higher energy as compared to infilled RC frame having a significant size of the opening in infill wall. Similarly, displacement ductility (µD) and Response modification factor (R) also depend on the quantity of opening in infill wall in infilled RC frame. Doi: 10.28991/cej-2020-03091625 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

In various fields of engineering, the assembly and repair of hydraulic installations are accomplished by joining the pipes. In such applications, the ring swaging method is used to connect the fittings to the pipes by means of a hydraulic hand tool. The basis to develop a swaging tool relies on the knowledge of the design parameter that influence plastic deformation of the swaging ring. In addition to build control over the design parameters, it is necessary to join pipes under severe conditions such as cryogenic vacuum and constrained space which require an intact sealing. In this study, the effect of swaging ring designs on sealing and strength has been examined and different swaging methods have been investigated by finite element modeling methods. Based on the obtained results, the analysis methodology of ring swaging and the characteristic impact of swaging ring design on the sealing of pipe connection are shown. The prime novelty of the study is to report the impact of swaging ring design and geometry on sealing efficiency of the pipe connection. The results of the study open new avenues for the development of efficient tools for designing swaging rings. Doi: 10.28991/cej-2021-03091641 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

Many initial childhood settings worldwide have started to create an environment and educational system that would increase the children’s environmental awareness and the ways to minimize it. A newly built ecological kindergarten in Antalya, Turkey, has adopted an educational system in which children are getting involved with nature in most of their daily routines. This study intended to learn if the physical environment of the declared setting responds to the early childhood environmental education work frame. Accordingly, the study has adopted “Guidelines for Excellence, Early Childhood Environmental Education Programs’’ as the primary resource for an evaluation checklist. Data collection is conducted via an in-depth site analysis, as well as the questionnaire survey of teachers and parents regarding their perception of the kindergarten’s physical environment. The results showed that the physical environment of the kindergarten does not meet the requirements of the early education environmental framework. This study underlines the importance of profound research studies that analyze the architectural features of an early environmental education setting and the ways improving its physical attributes may promote the children environmental education. Doi: 10.28991/cej-2021-03091657 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

This paper presents an experimental study of the behavior of Normal Concrete Beams (NCB) and composite beams with lightweight foamed concrete (CB), reinforced with steel bar measuring 2 f 8 mm in the compressive section and 2 D 16 mm in the tensile section, shear steel bar f 8 mm. The sample consisted of two normal concrete beams (NCB) and two composite beams with lightweight foamed concrete (CB). The main variables in this study are the type of concrete, the type of steel bar and the flexural behavior. The beam samples were tested by two-point loading, failure mode and crack width were observed. The results showed that the flexural process of normal concrete blocks (NCB) and composite beams with lightweight foamed concrete (CB) was almost the same. There is no slip failure at the combined interface, the flexural capacity of the composite beam with lightweight foamed concrete can be calculated based on the statics analysis and plane-section assumptions. To calculate the ultimate capacity of a composite beam with lightweight foamed concrete is to convert a section consisting of more than one fc' to an equivalent section consisting of one fc'. Furthermore, it is validated by calculating the theoretical moment capacity and comparing the theoretical moment capacity of the experimental results. The results of the flexural test, composite beam with lightweight foamed concrete (CB) showed ductile deflection behavior, diagonal crack patterns, and low flexural capacity of the beam (NCB). Doi: 10.28991/cej-2021-03091673 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

The greatest challenges for construction infrastructure projects are those related to increasing problems of managing the time and cost in project implementation. For many years, new methods have been used to reduce the problems to do with separation of design from the implementation stage. An important point is that all projects tend to require integration; however, it has been observed that construction projects usually enjoy the benefits and capacities of updated methods and technologies later than other industries. One of these approaches, which have been growing in developed countries for some time, is using the Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) approach. Using such an approach has various benefits, but also would seem to pose significant challenges. To-date, it and has not still achieved success in terms of legal recognition and wider implementation. The aim of this study is to extract the benefits of the implementation of the IPD approach using an in-depth literature review. Then descriptive analysis is applied to identify the benefits of IPD. The benefits of applying this approach for key construction project stakeholders are classified using pattern analysis. This study has offered a framework in order to present available generic and specific benefits to each project stakeholder, and it provides the required motivation for project owners to use and implement it in their future projects. Moreover, they should understand the important factors that lead to IPD adoption. They can use this information to develop a contractual framework to make it more effective.

Abstract

Geotechnical engineers often deal with layered foundation soils. In this case, the soil bearing capacity assessment using the conventional bearing capacity theory based on the upper layer properties introduces significant inaccuracies if the top layer thickness is comparable to the rigid footing width placed on the soil surface. Under undrained conditions the cohesion increases almost linearly with depth. A few theoretical studies have been proposed in the literature in order to incorporate the cohesion variation with depth in the computation of the ultimate bearing capacity of the strip and circular footings. Rigorous solutions to the problem of circular footings resting on layered clays with linear increase of cohesion do not appear to exist. In this paper, numerical computations using FLAC code are carried out to assess the vertical bearing capacity beneath rough rigid circular footing resting on two-layered clays of both homogeneous and linearly increasing shear strength profiles. The bearing capacity calculation results which depend on the top layer thickness, the two-layered clays strength ratio and the cohesion increase rates with depth are presented in both tables and graphs, and compared with previously published results available in the literature. The critical depth for circular footing is found significantly less than for strip footing. Doi: 10.28991/cej-2021-03091689 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

Concrete is indeed one of the most consumed construction materials all over the world. In spite of that, its behavior towards absolute volume change is still faced with uncertainties in terms of chemical and physical reactions at different stages of its life span, starting from the early time of hydration process, which depends on various factors including water/cement ratio, concrete proportioning and surrounding environmental conditions. This interest in understanding and defining the different types of shrinkage and the factors impacting each one is driven by the importance of these volumetric variations in determining the concrete permeability, which ultimately controls its durability. Many studies have shown that the total prevention of concrete from undergoing shrinkage is impractical. However, different practices have been used to control various types of shrinkage in concrete and limit its magnitude. This paper provides a detailed review of the major and latest findings regarding concrete shrinkage types, influencing parameters, and their impacts on concrete properties. Also, it discusses the efficiency of the available chemical and mineral admixtures in controlling the shrinkage of concrete.

Abstract

The design of reinforced concrete slabs supported on two adjacent edges involves complex formulations. In this paper, a simplistic approach is presented for designing orthotropic slabs supported on two adjacent edges. Slab supported on two adjacent edges (existing slab) is transformed into a slab supported on three edges (equivalent slab) by taking a mirror image of the yield line pattern of two adjacent edges supported RC slabs about its unsupported edges to get the exact collapse mechanism for the slabs supported on three edges. The equivalent aspect ratio can be used in the equations already developed for the slabs supported on three sides. Ultimate moment carrying capacity of the slab carrying uniform load can be evaluated by using the available analytical formulations of the slab supported on three edges. So, the present approach gives a simplified method to analyse and design the orthotropic RC rectangular slab supported on two adjacent edges using the equations available for slab supported on three adjacent edges. Hence, the simplistic approach will be very helpful for structural designers dealing with analysis and design of slabs supported on two adjacent edges. Doi: 10.28991/cej-2020-03091598 Full Text: PDF
