Advancements in concrete mix designs: High-performance and ultrahigh-performance concretes from 1970 to 2016
( American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) , 2018 , Article)This paper reviews the methods adopted to produce high-performance concrete (HPC) and ultrahigh-performance concrete (UHPC). The chronological development of these concretes in terms of their constituents, mixture proportions, ... -
Durability of Reinforced Concrete Beams Externally Strengthened with CFRP Laminates under Harsh Climatic Conditions
( American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) , 2021 , Article)This paper addresses the durability of reinforced concrete beams strengthened with carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) laminates under natural and saline environments in the Arabian Gulf. Beam specimens were conditioned ... -
Fuzzy Logic-Based Model to Predict the Impact of Flow Rate and Turbidity on the Performance of Multimedia Filters
( American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) , 2017 , Article)This paper uses fuzzy logic-based models to predict and evaluate the performance of multimedia filters utilized in wastewater treatment. A fuzzy logic-based model is constructed and trained to predict the operating time ... -
Multicriteria Decision-Making Methodology for Credit Selection in Building Sustainability Rating Systems
( American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) , 2017 , Article)Uncertainty is an inherent characteristic of decision making related to sustainable construction projects. The main reason for this uncertainty is the incomplete information available to stakeholders on the relative impact ... -
Reinforced Concrete Degradation in the Harsh Climates of the Arabian Gulf: Field Study on 30-to-50-Year-Old Structures
( American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) , 2018 , Article)This paper presents the results of a field study carried out on three reinforced concrete (RC) structures built in the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s to determine the main load (environmental) and the resistance (for example, the ... -
Sensing Temperature and Stress Distributions on Rock Samples under Mechanical Loading
( American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) , 2016 , Conference Paper)In the exploration of planetary materials using robotic probes, one of the key priorities is to establish fundamental level understandings on the mechanical response of materials under different levels of loading. In this ...
