ملخص الدراسة: Classification of engineering firms is not a routine or an automatic approval, nor is it simply an additional bureaucracy and paperwork. It’s an important step to create a professional record and statistical which documenting professionalism and expertise level of the engineering offices and consulting firms. Classification is an essential process in developing the […]

ملخص الدراسة: Engineers work in public and private sectors after graduation. Promotion in their ranks and professional responsibilities is not subject to achievement of accredited qualifications. Engineers are not distinguished from their colleagues in the same specialty on the basis of skills and knowledge gained during their professional career. Since the engineering profession requires a […]

ملخص الدراسة: Strengthening of reinforced concrete beams with carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) is one of the most used strengthening techniques recently. It offers an attractive solution to enhance shear and flexural capacities of RC beams. Behavior in shear and flexure of reinforced concrete beams externally strengthened with CFRP is highly affected by the way […]

ملخص الدراسة: Construction have major impact on three element of sustainability development, namely economic growth, social progress and environmental ability. Building project is an important issue in the construction projects due to sustainable development specially at the design stage which is the early stage of the project lifecycle. The research aimed to assess implementation of […]

ملخص الدراسة: This study aims at finding a quick and easy way to evaluate Gaza buildings for their resistance to earthquakes and make recommendations for strengthen the existing buildings, and finally to conduct recommendations for the local governorates for designing new buildings in Gaza. To achieve this aim many evaluation methods used all over the […]

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: In recent years, there have been an increasing number of structures using piled rafts as the foundations to reduce the overall differential settlements. Extensive research work has been performed in the past to examine the behavior of piled rafts. In this thesis, the behavior of piled rafts supported by identical piles is examined […]

ملخص الدراسة: The study was carried out in the three Governorates of Gaza Strip coastal aquifer which are represented by North Gaza, Gaza, and Middle Area in order to look into the geological properties of this area. The study aimed at updating geological cross sections in the study area to identify the subsurface lithological structure. […]
