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 ...
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 ...
Assessment of tire-pavement noise by using on-board sound intensity (Obsi) method in the state of qatar
(
CRC Press/Balkema
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
Tire-pavement noise is the dominant source of traffic noise especially at medium and high speeds. Thus, various transportation agencies and researchers are actively investigating for establishment of accurate test methods ...
Characterization and application of FRCM as a strengthening material for shear-critical RC beams
(
EDP Sciences
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
This paper investigates the effectiveness of fabric reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) systems in shear-strengthening of reinforced concrete beams. Three types of FRCM systems were considered, namely, polyparaphenylene ...
In-service video-vibration monitoring for identification of walking patterns in an office floor
(
International Institute of Acoustics and Vibration, IIAV
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Footfall-induced vibrations in office floors can create significant problems for the occupants and facility owners. Such vibrations cannot be modeled by traditional load models since the vibration response of a floor depends ...
Evaluation of traffic noise in the state of qatar
(
CRC Press/Balkema
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Mitigating traffic noise is a major concern for transportation departments worldwide. A number of noise mitigation procedures are recognized to control noise emitting from traffic stream. However, noise reduction potential ...
