Self-compacting Backfills using Fly Ash and Dredged Marine Sediments for Public Work Applications
( Qatar University Press , 2023 , Conference)Sediment accumulation at the bottom of ports disrupts maritime activities and disturbs the physicochemical balance of water bodies. In France, the maintenance of the 6500-kilometer long coastline would require the extraction ... -
Potential Implementation of Warm Mix Asphalt (WMA) in Pavement Construction in the State of Qatar
( Qatar University Press , 2023 , Conference)Warm-mix asphalt (WMA) technology has been used in many countries around the world, in lieu of Hot Mixed Asphalt (HMA), due to its ability to allow significant reduction in the temperatures at which asphalt mixes are ... -
Potential Utilization of Alternative Construction Materials in Qatar, in lieu of Conventional Washed Sand
( Qatar University Press , 2023 , Conference)Natural sand that has been washed is an essential material used in infrastructure development and construction projects of all sizes. Due to the depletion of natural sand sources in Qatar, there has arisen a need to develop ... -
Utilization of Recycled Materials in Infrastructure Projects: Ashghal Approach
( Qatar University Press , 2023 , Conference)As a result of numerous infrastructure projects which have taken place in Qatar in the last decade, there has been an unprecedented increase in demand for construction materials. In addition, the huge program of infrastructure ... -
The Use of Demolished Concrete Lumps (DCL) in Rectangular CFSTs Under Flexure
( Qatar University Press , 2023 , Conference)This paper investigates the flexural performance of rectangular concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) beams that are partially incorporated with demolished concrete lumps (DCLs). In total, three CFST beams were prepared and ... -
Impact of the Fiber Distribution Characteristics on the Uniaxial Behaviour of Fiber-Reinforced Composites- An Experimental Study
( Qatar University Press , 2023 , Conference)The demand for development of fiber-reinforced composites has enhanced as the practise of integrating fibres into concrete has become prevalent over the past few decades.. The intersection zone where the fiber crossing the ... -
Marine Dredging Sediments Valorization in Self-Compacting Concretes
( Qatar University Press , 2023 , Conference)Rock and eroded soil are transported by wind, tide, and human action (development works), and deposited as sediment in ports, estuaries, and rivers. The sediment accumulation at the bottom of ports disrupts maritime ... -
