Simplified vibration response prediction for slender monumental stairs
(
American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE)
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Slender monumental stairs are major architectural features in hotels, condominiums, hospitals, and other high-end building structures. Architectural requirements for these are usually very aggressive, with long spans and ...
A study on the bond behavior of different FRCM systems
(
EDP Sciences
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Fabric-reinforced cementitous matrix (FRCM) composites are usually applied on the concrete surface for the purpose of strengthening reinforced concrete structures. However, the efficiency of FRCM strengthening is notably ...
Review of existing transportation sustainability initiatives and their applicability to Qatar
(
American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE)
, 2012 , Conference Paper)
Sustainable development is Qatar's main national goal. The fact that Qatar has secured the World Cup bid for 2022 will make it the first Arab country to host the world cup. This honor and Qatar's plan to advance its ...
Shear behavior of RC beams strengthened with different types of FRCM: Effect of stirrups' configuration
(
ISEC Press
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Fabric-reinforced cementitious matrix, (FRCM) system has shown to be promising for the strengthening of reinforced concrete (RC) beams. However, the available experimental investigation on the shear strengthening efficacy ...
Behaviour of fibre reinforced concrete using steel slag coarse aggregate produced in Qatar
(
EDP Sciences
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
The state of Qatar suffers from the shortage of natural resources needed for concrete production. Therefore, it is essential to investigate the feasibility of using by-product recycled materials as aggregates to maintain ...
Development of a mobile application for manual traffic counts
(
EDP Sciences
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
The use of technology in performing traffic counts has become widely used by many transportation agencies and private sectors. Different technologies have been employed to perform such counts, such as inductive loops, image ...
Modeling travel behavior based on household characteristics
(
EDP Sciences
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents the relationship between travel behaviour based on demographic and socioeconomic characteristics of households in the City of Jericho, within the context of trips generation. The significance of this ...
Cost benefit analysis for failure of sewer pipelines
(
EDP Sciences
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
Sewer pipelines failure in sewage networks can have adverse potential impacts on socio-economic aspects in any community. Due to the fact that it's difficult to capture the relationship between the physical and economical ...
Effect of surface roughening on concrete/trm bond
(
ISEC Press
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
Textile reinforced mortar (TRM) is applied on the concrete surface with the aim of strengthening reinforced concrete structures. The performance of the strengthened structural system is directly related to the bond between ...
Stadium vibration assessment for serviceability considering the vibration duration
(
Canadian Society for Civil Engineering
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
Vibration problems in grandstand structures have been getting more attention due to increasing slenderness of architectural components and the complexity of crowd loading for structural designers. The vibration serviceability ...
