ملخص الدراسة: In comparison with the option of “demolish and rebuild buildings”, sustainability can be better achieved by extending the life spans of existing structures. Rehabilitation of structures results in less construction waste materials, reserves natural resources, minimizes adverse environmental effects, saves time, saves cost, etc. The structural behavior of reinforced concrete beams strengthened with […]

ملخص الدراسة: Estimating the construction labor productivity considering the effect of multiple factors is important for construction planning, scheduling and estimating. In planning and scheduling, it is important to maximize labor productivity and forecast activity durations to achieve lower labor cost and shorter project duration. In estimating, it is important to predict labor costs. A […]

ملخص الدراسة: Concrete is the most common material for human beings to use in construction. In this study, the behavior of the recycled plastic as aggregate in concrete has been investigated on compressive, tensile, and flexural strengths, weight reduction and workability. Also the impact resistance of concrete contains plastic aggregate has been carried out deeply […]

ملخص الدراسة: In recent years, researches have been increasing towards studying the strengthening of concrete structures using different methods. Various studies have shown that structural concrete members such as square reinforced concrete (RC) columns can experience a significant increase in the ultimate load carrying capacity and ductility when strengthened by a concrete jacket. Despite the […]

ملخص الدراسة: This study investigates the flexural capacity, deflection and crack patterns of reinforced concrete beams repaired by application of four repair materials, Ultra High Performance Concrete, Ultra High Performance Fiber Reinforced Concrete, Ordinary Portland Concrete, and special repair materials for repair of three types of damages that can occur in construction. These include over […]

ملخص الدراسة: Fire has become one of the greatest threats to buildings. Concrete is a primary construction material and its properties of concrete to high temperatures have gained a great deal of attention. Concrete structures when subjected to fire presented in general good behavior. The low thermal conductivity of the concrete associated to its great […]
