Effect of Leachate on Surrounding Surface Water: Case Study in Rajbandh Sanitary Landfill Site in Khulna City, Bangladesh
Published In: GJRE Part: E: Civil & Structural Volume: 13 Issue: 2 Leachate is the aqueous effluent generated as a consequence of rainwater percolation through wastes and the inherent water content of wastes themselves. Its quality is the result of biological, chemical and physical processes in landfills combined with the specific waste composition and the landfill water regime. In Khulna city, municipal solid waste is dumped in the Rajbandh landfill si...

Civil Engineering Significant of Peat
Published In: GJRE Part: E: Civil & Structural Volume: 13 Issue: 2 Peat deposits are the partly decomposed and fragmented remain of plants that have accumulated under water (excessively moistened) and fossilized, and consist of more than 50% organic substances. This type of subsoil foundation has high compressibility and low shear strength when subjected to imposed loads from civil engineering projects. It is essential to distinguish this problematic so...

Investigation into Effects of Construction Moisture Content on Inerted Manganese Product Stiffness in Road Pavement Layers
Published In: GJRE Part: E: Civil & Structural Volume: 13 Issue: 2 The use of waste materials from various processes as pavement layers has long been an option for disposing of such materials. Huge volumes of material are typically required to construct pavement layers and this option provides the opportunity for disposing of large volumes of materials without requiring landfill areas. Electrolytic Manganese Dioxide (EMD) is produced in South Africa fro...

Comparison of Crisp and Fuzzy Logics on the Location of a Gauging Station
Published In: GJRE Part: E: Civil & Structural Volume: 12 Issue: 4 The traditional logic (crisp) is based on the dichotomy of true and false, what is not true is false and what is not false is true. Half term does not exist. However, the real world presents some situations where the answers true and false are not enough to represent the reality. Using this idea, it was applied, in this paper, the logics crisp and fuzzy to a problem of choose of place fo...

Controlling Slippage in Water Resources and Infrastructure Projects
Published In: GJRE Part: E: Civil & Structural Volume: 12 Issue: 4 Slippage of projects particularly in the water and infrastructure sector is a common occurrence. The activity networking techniques initiated in the USA in the 1950s gained large popularity. This was followed by introduction of computer and numerous software on network analysis aiming at effective project control. While these techniques are helpful the real problem of controlling the pro...
