The majority of emissions come from the combustion of fuel and particulate matter (PM) diffusion. The key finding is that combining a wet scrubber system and baghouse system will reduce the major pollutants significantly. Thousands of HMA plants across the country are in operation every day in rural, suburban, and urban areas, affecting all neighbors in their local communities. How an asphalt plant impacts the neighborhood and the environment mainly depends on their sustainable operation. Asphalt plant emissions are very low and getting lower due to innovative control systems and manufacturing technology. The objective of this report is to exppore the emission control system of a Hot Mix Asphalt plant.

Reinforced concrete is the most widely used building material in engineering. The durability of reinforced concrete structure gradually declines under the long-term action of unfavorable factors in using environment. At present, there are many \"models\" for predicting the durability life of concrete published in the world, and more researches are being carried out. The most studied \"model\" is the \"model\" related to corrosion, especially the relationship between reinforcement corrosion and concrete durability, is the most common and in-depth research. The problem of durability of reinforced concrete structures caused by corrosion of reinforcing bar has been paid more and more attention in engineering field. Early detection and diagnosis of reinforcement corrosion is an important prerequisite for durability evaluation, remaining service life prediction and maintenance scheme selection of reinforced concrete structures.The development of accurate and reliable on-site monitoring technology of reinforcement corrosion has become the focus of scholars at home and abroad. In order to monitor the corrosion of reinforcement in concrete, some electrochemical parameters need to be measured by sensors. These electrochemical parameters include: potential distribution, macrocurrent, concrete resistance, and so on. Among them, the measurement of macrocurrent is a relatively simple and easy method, which has been widely used in the measurement of reinforcement corrosion. Using this method, in recent years, many countries have developed anodic sensor systems for monitoring reinforcement corrosion, a typical non-destructive monitoring system for the embedded durability of TRAPEZOIDAL anode ladder concrete structure is developed by the Institute of Civil Engineering, Aachen University of Technology, Germany, the corrosion degree and depth of steel bar in concrete can be measured for a long time by embedding steel bar sensors with different depths in concrete, which has been put into engineering application in many countries. In this paper, a self-made multi-group anode ladder monitoring system is designed in the laboratory. The corrosion status of each anode steel bar and the change of electrochemical parameters are obtained by using the method of half-cell potential test in the environmental solution of different concentrations, the criterion of electrochemical parameters to determine the corrosion status of rebar was obtained.","PeriodicalId":441364,"journal":{"name":"Academic Journal of Architecture and Geotechnical Engineering","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122082213","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}

It is proposed to serve travelers and citizens for boating and water sports. The existing planning plan will interrupt local environment due to an indiscriminately transformation of the landscape. Though Environment Landscape Convention (ELC) provides designers a reference for planning policies and tools, there is still a gap between researches and planning practices. Planning plans are always carried out based on designer’s personal inclination into the landscape and results in an impossible prediction of change for the landscape and locals. This paper presents a process of using the Environmental impact study (EIS) as a tool to set up a temperate planning plan for the holiday village. Two steps were evolved: landscape interpretation and landscape evaluation. In the first step, multidisciplinary data of the site was collected. Parameters consist of nature and cultural elements were mapped out. Based on the characteristics and identities of the landscape, the second step was rating, overlaying and analyzing parameters according to their protective function. By calculating the environmental net loss and gain, the validity and reliability of the study could be verified. The compliment of EIS can explicitly demonstrate a reasonable decision making process based on respecting existing site condition. The result will indicate the protective area and the new potential design boundary of the site. From the results of the study, a new planning boundary has been put froward to compensating ecology loss by creating new habitats and corridors. Two goals have been attained by the new planning plan: (1) minimal deconstruction of the site; (2) 13.3 ha of additional biotopes was created.","PeriodicalId":441364,"journal":{"name":"Academic Journal of Architecture and Geotechnical Engineering","volume":"268 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115982687","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 an equation as τθ=τf, where τθ is the force tangentially acting on the unit shear boundaries and τf represents the shear strength of basalt, to indicate the condition of the shear fracture. The result of numerical calculation shows that cleavages appear at angles of ±59.53° with the σ1, which effectively illustrate why the columnar jointed occur in conjugate pairs with ~120° angle between cleavages. The angle depends on the internal friction angle, the cohesive force, the tensile strength and Poisson’s ratio of basalt.

It is an inorganic non-metallic material made of glass fiber reinforced material, synthetic resin as matrix material, and compounded by a certain process. Although the glass fiber reinforced polymer anchor can fundamentally solve the problem of poor corrosion resistance of the steel bar anchor, in the anchor system, the force on the surface layer or the waist beam needs to be transmitted to the shaft through the anchor head. At present, the pull-out strength of domestic GFRP anchors is far away from the tensile strength of GFRP tendons. This may cause the anchorage system of anchors to fail due to anchorage failure, and the tensile strength of GFRP tendons cannot be fully exerted. When ordinary clip-type anchorages are used, there is a huge clamping force on the ribs in the anchorage zone, which may result in the shear failure of ribs.Based on this, this article uses a high-strength impregnated reinforcement material to carry out the tensile failure test of a GFRP anchored anchorage with a diameter of 18cm. The study found that the use of high-strength reinforced concrete can make the GFRP anchor achieve the maximum tensile strength, and with the increase of curing time, the ability of the high-strength reinforcement to limit the displacement of the anchorage end is stronger.","PeriodicalId":441364,"journal":{"name":"Academic Journal of Architecture and Geotechnical Engineering","volume":"459 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116087222","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}
