Also, the stability of the dam at the rapid drawdown will be more important due to the faster reduction of the water level of the dam reservoir than the pore water pressure. In this study, the finite element method and software GeoStudio used to study the seepage from the body earth dam. Also, the complete elastic-plastic model of Mohr-Coulomb is considered in the analysis. In this study, the stability analysis of the Eyvshvan earth dam after rapid drawdown due water to release of the dam reservoir to downstream agricultural lands during drought crisis is investigated. For the validation, first, the results of the pore water pressure instrument were compared with the results of numerical analysis. The results of multivariate regression analysis (coefficient of determination) show very good agreement of about R2=0.98. The results show that the phreatic line remains after 29 days from the start of the rapid drawdown of the reservoir, while half of the volume of the drained reservoir remains at 1842 (1/3 of the crest). The analysis of dam stability during rapid drawdown using both Morgenstern-Price and Bishop Methods showed that the most critical situation would occur after 42 days of discharge with a factor of safety (FoS) of 1.71, with no stability hazard and the upstream slope would be safe.","PeriodicalId":43959,"journal":{"name":"Civil Engineering Infrastructures Journal-CEIJ","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42164728","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since most of the recent researches are focused on the addition of nano-SiO2 on concrete, in this paper it has been attempted to use nano-SiO2 particles in soil-cement and observe the effects. Due to the fact that in concrete there are no particles passing sieve 200 and this restriction does not apply to soil-cements, some tests were carried out on the nano-SiO2 + soil-cement matrix because of the meaningful difference between concrete and soil-cement. The test procedure consists of moisture-dry density, unconfined compressive test and hydraulic conductivity. In these tests, silica fume (with specific surface area of 21 m2/g), nano-SiO2 (with specific surface area of 200 and 380 m2/g) were added to soil-cement. The results show that adding certain amounts of nano-SiO2 particles to the soil-cement matrix can improve the compressive strength and reduce permeability and speed hydration reactions in the matrix in presence of nano-SiO2 particles.","PeriodicalId":43959,"journal":{"name":"Civil Engineering Infrastructures Journal-CEIJ","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49595082","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This occurs due to the transferring of shear force and due to the bending moment between the slab and the column. The initial local failure and the following redistribution of load can lead to punching failure of the slab in the adjacent column locations. This issue can collapse an entire building or a huge portion of a structure. Hence, an alternate load path method is necessary for preventing the catastrophic failure of the buildings. Compared to the moment frame buildings, flat slab buildings are more prone to the progressive collapse. Thus, the designing of flat plate structures demands more attention and study. Due to higher construction costs and limitations in the test set up, the researchers have adopted scale down structures for the experimental studies. The progressive collapse behavior of the prototype structures is usually analyzed using both analytical and numerical simulations. This paper discusses the existing researchers on the analytical study, experimental study, and numerical simulations of flat slab structures along with various load resisting mechanisms to mitigate progressive collapse. Further, various strengthening techniques available in the literature for the flat slab structures have been discussed. A parametric study and comparison of different strengthening techniques are also performed in this work.","PeriodicalId":43959,"journal":{"name":"Civil Engineering Infrastructures Journal-CEIJ","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44349599","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although both of them have led to human tragedies, post-earthquake fire can cause more irreparable damages and catastrophes in larger extents. Engineering structures are subjected to different loads during their lifetime, which may cause damage or secondary loading effects. Evaluation of durability and stability of fired structures and the effects of seismic loading are considered to be significant parameters in fire engineering. The aim of this study is to evaluate and compare durability of reinforced concrete and steel frames during fire loading and post-earthquake fires. In this study, two 7-story steel and reinforced concrete frames are exposed to the fire load. At first, steel and concrete sections are put under various thermal loads in order to compare the method of their heat transfer. Then, the effects of crack on heat transfer of concrete sections are studied. Afterwards, the selected frames are exposed to the fire and post-earthquake fires. The results indicated that cracking and strength reduction due to seismic loading can decrease the durability of reinforced concrete frame in post-earthquake fire scenarios. However, the durability of steel frames has no significant relationship with the seismic loading and their durability are almost the same in the fire and post-earthquake fire scenarios.","PeriodicalId":43959,"journal":{"name":"Civil Engineering Infrastructures Journal-CEIJ","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47171013","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Besides, the effect of the variables considered on the negative skin friction and pile’s settlement is investigated. Numerical analyses were performed using ABAQUS and MATLAB. The results showed that the amount of frictional stress on the pile decreases if the hollow sections are used. However, the hallow pile experiences more settlements than other piles’ models. On the other hand, if the amount of consumed steel in a pile is reduced, the amount of negative skin friction induced in a pile decreases, while the pile settlement increases. After examining the Finite Element of concrete piles in fine-grained soils, the safety surface of the suggested numerical relationship is considered in the phenomenon of negative friction on the pile. For this purpose, considering the uncertainty parameters such as mean, variance and probability function for overcharge, soil parameters, dimensions and different types of the single pile, the amount of settlement, the stress created on the pile, the position of neutral plane on the pile and drag load were calculated using the proposed relationship. Finally, the safety surface of proposed relationships or comparisons of a finite element results in a close approximation to the real models is computed.","PeriodicalId":43959,"journal":{"name":"Civil Engineering Infrastructures Journal-CEIJ","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48226517","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using a wide range of fracture tests, a statistical model is proposed to predict the stress intensity factors of asphalt mixtures in terms of the pure torsion mode (mode III) loading in this study. To this end, the experiments were carried out at different temperature conditions (-5, -15 and -25 °C), different loading conditions (0.5, 1 and 5 mm/min), and on control and modified asphalt mixtures with different percentages of polyolefin-aramid fibers. The results showed that, with increasing the fiber content and loading rate, the fracture strength increased with average 25%, while an increase in fracture toughness due to lower temperature had an effect of less than 5%. Using the Response Surface Method (RSM), the prediction model of stress intensity coefficients of asphalt mixtures was presented in the pure torsion mode.
