Abstract

The comparison between steel structures and reinforced concrete structures has always been governed by economy and response to earthquake. Steel structures being lighter and are thus more efficient to resist earthquake. On the other hand, they are more expensive (4 to 5 times). Theoretically, two structural elements having the same plastic moment have an equal failure or collapse load. Different profiles of IPE are realized in industry and all their characteristics are determined with a great precision (weight, geometrical characteristics and thus their plastic moment). Determining equivalent rectangular singly reinforced concrete cross-sections is not easy and seems impossible to be solved analytically. To a given profile it may be found a multitude of equivalent rectangular reinforced concrete cross-section (singly and doubly reinforced with different yield strengths and compositions of concrete). To take into consideration all these factors, it is absolutely necessary to construct three axis design charts with an appropriate choice of system of coordinates in order to cover all possible ranges of different parameters. The choice of all these possible rectangular reinforced concrete sections is governed by the plastic performance of these later. They must be under reinforced, allowing plastification of steel before failure in order to permit the redistribution phenomenon in plastic analysis. The exploitation of these different charts has revealed that the absolute majority of these rectangular reinforced concrete cross-section are reasonably well designed and are in conformity with the dimensions used in practice. The results of the present characterization using Eurocode 2 characteristics are compared to those of CP110. The impact does not seem to be very relevant. Doi: 10.28991/cej-2021-03091677 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

University–construction industry collaboration (UIC) has become an essential part of driving innovation and fostering construction industry growth. Measuring the performance of such collaboration is an emergent field of study that is scattered through the current literature. This study aims to identify the UIC performance indicators advocated by the top-cited references, and map UIC performance indicators in the context of the state of Qatar. The present research evaluated the literature related to measuring the performance of UIC, considering publications in selected scientific databases over the period of 2004 – 2020. The publications were obtained through a search of the Science Direct, Emerald Insight, Scopus, Web of Science, Springer Link, SAGE, Research Gate, and Taylor & Francis Online databases. Keywords used in searching for publications included university, construction industry, business, cooperation, collaboration, relation, performance, and measurement. The findings were discussed and confirmed in the context of Qatar’s education and innovation ecosystem through semi-structured interviews with two renowned scholars who are involved in UIC. The study revealed that both universities and the construction industry are increasingly focused on measuring the performance of collaboration through specific performance indicators. The results show that both universities and the construction industry share some interests when it comes to four key performance indicators. These performance indicators are (1) the number of registered patents, (2) the number of patent applications, (3) the number of innovations (process/marketing/product/organisational), and (4) the number of publications. This study contributes to a general understanding of measuring UIC performance and defining trends in this research field. It also highlights research limitations and provides an arena for future research in the field. Doi: 10.28991/cej-2021-03091688 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

Understanding the influence of various variables on surface water quality is extremely important for protecting ecosystem health. The principal aim of this study is to assess the direct (DE), indirect (IE) and total effects (TE) of socio-economic, terrestrial and hydrological factors on surface water quality via path analysis through the lens of 15 sub-basins located on Indus basin, Pakistan. Four path models were selected based on Comparative Fit Index (CFI) = 0.999 value. First path model showed that rangelands having low population density decline river runoff which decreases instream Electrical Conductivity (EC) because of lower anthropogenic activities. Second path model depicted that croplands having higher population density enhance river runoff due to irrigation tail water discharge which decline instream EC because of dilution. Third path model showed that croplands with higher population density enhance river runoff which increases instream NO3 concentration because of unscientific application of irrigation water. Fourth path model unveiled that croplands enhance Gross Domestic Product (GDP) which enhance river runoff and instream NO3 concentration. To protect ecosystem health, Best Management Practices (BMPs), precision farming and modern irrigation techniques should be adopted to reduce irrigation tail water discharges containing pollutants entry in Indus River. Doi: 10.28991/cej-2021-03091683 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

Corrugated Steel Shear Wall (CSSW) is an efficient shear wall system, which has higher energy dissipation capacity, ductility and stiffness when compared to the Steel Plate Shear Wall (SPSW) with flat infill plate. Despite of these advantages, the ultimate load of CSSW is lower than that of SPSW. Various studies conducted to improve the cyclic behavior of CSSW revealed that increasing corrugation angle might enhance energy dissipation capacity and toughness of CSSWs. However, the ultimate load of CSSW was not improved by increasing the corrugation angle. Thus, the current study proposed new corrugated infill panel schemes to improve the ultimate load of CSSWs. To this end, Finite Element (FE) models were established using ABAQUS/Standard and verified with the experimental results from previous researches. The corrugation angle of the proposed plates was found based on a numerical investigation on seven CSSW FE models with the corrugation angle ranges from 30° to 120°. The FE results revealed that the model with the corrugation angle of 120 achieved highest ultimate load, energy dissipation capacity and toughness amongst the CSSW models. In addition, the ultimate loads, energy dissipation capacities and toughness of the proposed infill plates were up to 11.8%, 53.9% and 8.8% respectively higher than those of CSSW model with the corrugation angle of 120°. Furthermore, the proposed infill plates use up to 13.4% lower amount of steel compared to the corrugated plate with the corrugation angle of 120. Doi: 10.28991/cej-2021-03091678 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

The objective of the study is to investigate the influence of Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) recycled plastic bottle fibers on the compressive strength and cracking of concrete. In this study, two types of fiber are used: straight and zigzag fibers whose length and aspect ratio are 40 mm and 40 respectively. 0, 0.75, and 1.25% volume fractions of fibers replacing the volume of coarse aggregates are used in this investigation. According to ACI 211.1-91, design mixing ratio 1:2:3 for M20 concrete and water-cement ratio 0.58 are used. Curing is done in field condition and weathering action is allowed in curing time. The destructive compressive strength test shows that the compressive strength of plain concrete is 19.84 MPa, at 0.75 and 1.25% replacement for concrete with straight fibers are 19.54 and 18.84 MPa, and at 0.75 and 1.25% replacement for concrete with zigzag fibers are 18.49 and 15.69 MPa. The non-destructive compressive strength test shows that the compressive strength of plain concrete is 13.58 MPa, at 0.75 and 1.25% replacement for concrete with straight fibers are 10.36 and 8.82 MPa, and at 0.75 and 1.25% replacement for concrete with zigzag fibers are 8.21 and 8.10 MPa. The use of fibers changes the failure mode. The addition of fibers decreases the workability and cracking of concrete. Zigzag fiber slightly shows interlocking property with concrete. The addition of PET plastic fibers increases the ductility of concrete. Doi: 10.28991/cej-2021-03091684 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

S-Curve analysis in the construction interpreted as managing project with knowledge and traceable in the context of sustainable construction while displays the cumulative costs, labour hours or other quantities plotted against time. In the contract administration, delays in completing a construction project led to the breach of contract but, in contracts itself allow the construction period to be extended where there are delays that are not the contractor's fault. Under those circumstances, a presentation of a case-study regarding the analysis of S-Curve of a life project drew comparative interpretation of project performance towards project delivery schedule has been conducted in private initiative project. This study aims to investigate and examine the factors that cause delays in construction projects from the perspective of S-curve representations. The paper aims to provide in depth light about the existing causes of project delay and describe the key sources of financing problem and identify the consequences of contraventions of contract. Two distinct parts divided which are refers to the methods used to assess the perceptions of clients, consultants, and contractors on the relative importance of causes of delay in a project and referred to the procurement and documentation to analyse the delay. As a result, an Extension of Time (EOT) granted and identically changed the progress towards extension time where better planning demanded for improvement and restoration progress kept on track. This paper presented a practical and comparative S-Curve within extension of time to ensure delivery of project on schedule. In the long run, the identified causes are combined into 16 factors. Finally, the result of this match was brought in order to critically understand and provide a guideline to contractor in preparing EOT application and choose reliable factor based on the specific circumstances of project delay factors thorough review conducted to reveal the nature of EOT application techniques. Doi: 10.28991/cej-2021-03091679 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

One way to restore or increase the strength of the structure against earthquakes is to use retrofit method and wire mesh is a material that has high prospects as retrofit material. The purpose of this study was to examine the use of wire mesh as a retrofit material on reinforced concrete columns burdened with cyclic loads. In this study, testing of 3 square column samples of reinforced concrete with dimensions of 300  300 mm. The first specimen is fully retrofit on the entire cross-section of the column, the second specimen is retrofitted on the plastic hinge area of the column and the third specimen is a control column without retrofit. In the first and second specimens were retrofitted with wire mesh size M6 using SCC which was then tested with a cyclic load using displacement control method based on the provisions stipulated in the Indonesian Standard SNI 7834:2012. From the test results and analysis results, it was found that the capacity and ductility of displacement in retrofit specimens increased significantly compared to specimens that were not retrofit. In addition, the decrease in stiffness in retrofit specimens was smaller than in non-retrofit specimens. As for the value of energy dissipation in fully retrofit specimens and in retrofit on the plastic hinge area is almost close. Based on these conditions, the use of wire mesh size M6 and SCC can be used as retrofit material on the column that is burdened with cyclic load. Doi: 10.28991/cej-2021-03091685 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

Cultural objects (building and construction) that are considered as the most valuable segment of real estate in terms of historical heritage usually evaluated only by monetary aspects. Not concreteness of the approaches to the determination of the historical heritage objects leads to the fact that its original value often remains unread, the assessment has subjective character, reflects the values of certain time frame and place. Therefore, for the purpose of determination of value of the historical heritage objects, there is need for the creation of the unified classification system of their assessment. Thus, this research is considered to be very relevant. The paper investigates intangible factors that affect the evaluation of cultural heritage objects in construction. In the work a system of value indicators, which take into account not only tangible indicators but also the intangible value of cultural heritage objects, has been developed. Developed indicators system makes it possible to evaluate the historical and cultural value of real estate objects quite objectively on the contrary to common methods which deal only with monetary aspects of market price of such objects. A methodology for a comprehensive evaluation of cultural heritage objects has been formed as well. This methodology is based on both the traditional comparative approach and the system of value indicators. As a result, suggested integrated approach has been proven to provide fair evaluation of both the tangible and intangible characteristics and improve the quality of cultural heritage objects assessment process. Doi: 10.28991/cej-2021-03091680 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

This paper presents the results of three dimensional finite element analysis of laterally loaded pile groups of configuration 1×1, 2×1 and 3×1, embedded in two-layered soil consisting of soft clay at liquid limit overlying dense sand using Plaxis 3D. Effects of variation in pile length (L) and clay layer thickness (h) on lateral capacity and bending moment profile of pile foundations were evaluated by employing different values of pile length to diameter ratio (L/D) and ratio of clay layer thickness to pile length (h/L) in the analysis. Obtained results indicated that the lateral capacity reduces non-linearly with increase in clay layer thickness. Larger decrease was observed in group piles. A non-dimensional parameter Fx ratio was defined to compare lateral capacity in layered soil to that in dense sand, for which a generalized expression was derived in terms of h/L ratio and number of piles in a group. Group effect on lateral resistance and maximum bending moment was observed to become insignificant for clay layer thickness exceeding 40% of pile length. For a fixed value of clay layer thickness, lateral capacity and bending moment in a single pile increased significantly with increase in pile length only up to an optimum embedment depth in sand layer which was found to be equal to three times pile diameter and 0.21 times pile length for pile with L/D 15. Scale effect on lateral capacity has also been studied and discussed. Doi: 10.28991/cej-2021-03091686 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

 Considering a constant demand in construction of concrete structures to develop novel approaches for predicting the concert’s properties, a host of investigations were performed on concrete’s mechanical properties and durability under various curing regimes. However, few studies were concerned with evaluating the concrete’s durability using non-destructive concrete surface resistivity tests by applying various curing conditions. The present study compares the influence of different curing regimes on durability and compressive strength of concrete to recommend the most effective curing conditions on concrete’s characteristics.  Five curing conditions including ambient, laboratory, dry oven, wet oven and 7-days were analyzed. Accordingly, a non-destructive concrete surface resistivity test was performed on the concrete specimens using hand-held Wenner Resipod probe meter as a reliable and rapid approach. To analyze specimen’s durability, results of the surface sensitivity tests were correlated to chloride ion penetration rate based on the cylinder specimen dimensions and the degree of chloride ion penetration. The compressive strength tests were conducted on the specimens after 7, 28 and 56 days to determine the effect of curing conditions at different ages. Based on the reported outcomes, applying the wet oven curing regime results in higher compressive strength and durability compared to the other curing conditions. Doi: 10.28991/cej-2021-03091681 Full Text: PDF
