Experimental Investigation on Dual Column Frame System for Seismic Resistance of Reinforced Concrete Frames
Published In: GJRE Part: E: Civil & Structural Volume: 16 Issue: 2 Structures subjected to seismic forces must have adequate strength and stiffness to control inter storey drift in order to prevent damage to structural and non-structural elements during excitations. Linked column frame system (LCF) for steel structures was proposed by Peter Dusicka et.al (2009) with the objective of utilizing replaceable components that are strategically placed to prote...

Controlling Collapsibility Potential by Partial Soil Replacement
Published In: GJRE Part: E: Civil & Structural Volume: 16 Issue: 1 At or near saturation, collapsible soils undergo a rearrangement of their grains and water removes the cohesive (or cementing) material. In Borg El Arab, near Alexandria Egypt, soils exhibit high susceptibility for collapse when saturated. In this paper, inundation stress has been applied to investigate its effect on the collapse potential and permeability behavior of Borg El Arab soil. ...

Comparative Analysis between Different Commonly used Lateral Load Resisting Systems in Reinforced Concrete Buildings
Published In: GJRE Part: E: Civil & Structural Volume: 16 Issue: 1 The concept of tall structures is not new to the world, yet the trend of high-rise construction started in the nineteenth century. High-rise or multi-storey buildings are being constructed either to cater for a growing population or as a landmark to boost a country’s name and get recognition. Any structure, to be reliable and durable, must be designed to withstand gravit...

Seismic Evaluation of Multi Storey RC Buildings with and Without Fluid Viscous Dampers
Published In: GJRE Part: E: Civil & Structural Volume: 16 Issue: 1 Earthquakes are one of the most destructive of natural hazards. Earthquake occurs due to sudden transient motion of the ground as a result of release of energy in a matter of few seconds. These recent events remind us of the vulnerability of our society to natural hazards. The protection of civil structures, including material content and human occupants is, without doubt, a worldwide pr...

Influence of the Projectile’s Length on Interrupted Dynamic Tension Experiment Results
Published In: GJRE Part: E: Civil & Structural Volume: 15 Issue: 4 The main focus of this work is to discuss the influence of the projectile’s length on the results of a Split Hopkinson Tension Bar (SHTB) experiment. By using the commercial software ABAQUS, finite element simulations of high-strain-rate tension experiments are accomplished on Aluminium 7017-T73 alloy specimens when varying the length of the projectile employed. The fini...

Failure Modes For I-Section GFRP Beams
Published In: GJRE Part: E: Civil & Structural Volume: 15 Issue: 4 This paper presents calculations for the failure modes for I-section Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) beams with single mid-span web brace. Theoretical predictions are made using ASCE-LFRD Pre-Standard for FRP structures. For the member length considered, it is found that for small and medium I-sections the failure mode is governed by lateral-torsional buckling and for bigger I-sect...

Comprehensive Conventional Analysis of Southern Hemisphere Coal Chars of Different Ranks for Fixed Bed Gasification
Published In: GJRE Part: E: Civil & Structural Volume: 15 Issue: 4 In this study, the physical and chemical changes accompanied in the coal to char transition were examined by conventional and Fourier Transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) techniques. Six coals (lignite to anthracite) o≤f 75 μm were acid washed, and subjected to a slow heating rate of 20 oC/min from 450 to 700 oC at atmospheric atmosphere. The chars were characteriz...

Strengthening of the Permeability of Sandy Soil by Different Grouting Materials for Seepage Reduction
Published In: GJRE Part: E: Civil & Structural Volume: 15 Issue: 3 Grouting is an effective way to improve the engineering properties of the soil to reduce soil permeability. In this research, an attempt has been made to study on effectiveness of grouting materials on seepage reduction. The purpose of this paper is to focus on the efficiency of current available grouting materials and techniques from construction, environmental and economical point of v...

Aggregate Angularity on the Permanent Deformation Zones of Hot Mix Asphalt
Published In: GJRE Part: E: Civil & Structural Volume: 15 Issue: 3 This paper presents a method of evaluating the effect of aggregate angularity on hot mix asphalt (HMA) properties and its relationship to the Permanent Deformation resistance. The research concluded that aggregate particle angularity had a significant effect on the Permanent Deformation performance, and also that with an increase in coarse aggregate angularity there was an increase in th...

Effect of Temperature Variationand type of Embankment Soil on Integral Abutment Bridges in Sudan
Published In: GJRE Part: E: Civil & Structural Volume: 15 Issue: 3 The integral-abutment bridge (IAB) concept was developed at least as far back as the 1930s to solve long-term structural problems that can occur with conventional bridge designs. Due to limited funding sources for bridge maintenance, it is desirable to establish strategies for eliminating joints as much as possible and converting/retrofitting bridges with troublesome joints to jointless ...

Stochastic Finite Element Analysis for Transport Phenomena in Geomechanics using Polynomial Chaos
Published In: GJRE Part: E: Civil & Structural Volume: 15 Issue: 2 Transport Phenomena in Geomechanics occur under uncertain conditions and their parameters dominated by spatial randomness. The prediction of the progress of these phenomena is a stochastic problem rather than a deterministic. To solve the problem a procedure of conducting Stochastic Finite Element Analysis using Polynomial Chaos is presented. It eliminates the need for a large number of ...
