Effective pavement maintenance and rehabilitation decisions rely on both pavement functional and structural condition data. Traditionally, state transportation agencies prioritize pavement segments based on functional...
Natural resource scarcity, CO2 emissions, and solid waste generated from the construction industry are major global environmental and developmental challenges, posing threats to the sustainability of terrestrial and a...
This study examines the design of a commercial and office center near the Abali ski resort, developed by a specialized team to meet the needs of athletes at the site. Given the cold and mountainous climate, the design...
Civil engineering works require the selection of soil-type materials and the assessment of their geomechanical characteristics. However, the lack of relevant geotechnical mapping to facilitate the prediction of granul...
This study evaluates the effects of the initial situation of the site (slope and quality of the soil with its resistance characteristics), building loads, support and drainage/non-drainage on the safety and stability ...
Copper metallurgical slags are solid wastes resulting from the copper extraction process through pyrometallurgy. These granulated materials, dumped in the center of the city of Lubumbashi, contain certain “trace meta...
The use of soil as a construction material is limited due to climatic conditions such as rain and wind effects. The valorization of industrial and agricultural by-products in soil-material-based composites for constru...
The current limitation in maintenance budget and resources necessitates developing new cost-effective techniques for gravel roads management systems (GRMS). Thus, the Wyoming Technology Transfer Center (WYT2) has star...
Predicting the beach response to an extreme storm is important in planning and management of beach environment and helps in hazard control. Coastal dunes and sand beaches provide protection against sea waves and risin...
Geotechnical studies are essential in civil engineering for all building and infrastructure projects. Typically, in-situ studies involving soil sample collection through drilling are conducted. However, these invasive...
