Many construction buildings and Structural barrier members that was built before 90s in USA, they weren’t designed for Seismic resistance until Federal Emergency Management Agency FEMA started to do seismic evaluation and rehabilitation... more
Engineers are often faced with construction of pavement structures over soft and highly compressible subgrade. Such conditions render the structures unable to withstand the required design loads and susceptible to high settlements with... more
—One of the parameters required to evaluate the behavior of soil under loading is the coefficient of subgrade reaction which is widely used nowadays. To obtain this parameter there are many theoretical and laboratory relations, but one of... more
The contamination of groundwater by heavy metal, originating either from natural soil sources or from anthropogenic sources is a matter of utmost concern to the public health. Remediation of contaminated groundwater is of highest priority... more
Geocell, which is one of the increasingly used geosynthetic materials in recent years, limits the lateral movement of the ground with its three-dimensional honeycomb structure. Thanks to this new technique, the cost of the soil... more
The current research has investigated the soil quality status under dryland vegetation of Yabello district, Southern Ethiopia in which we should identify the nature and extent of salinity problem of the area for further research bases.... more
The paper under discussion (by Hassan et al. (2021)) presents a comprehensive set of experimental results from standard geotechnical laboratory tests performed on a low-plasticity clay soil (CL) amended with between 1% and 4% (by weight... more
This paper presents a laboratory investigation into the resultant increase in shear strength and bearing capacity of locally sourced sand due to random inclusion of strips of high density polyethylene material from plastic shopping bags.A... more
In Germany, the annual economic damage attributable to mass movements is estimated at around €250 million. Studies indicate that there are relatively high losses, especially on traffic routes. Preventive measures are necessary in order... more
This study evaluated an improvement method based on static and dynamic tests for dune sand soil on the coast of Bandar Anzali city. This soil has very poor and insufficient mechanical performance for many construction projects as well as... more
Agricultural activities can be important source of organic pollution. In agricultural intensive areas, organic chemicals have a high possibility of entering the water cycle, which could pose a potential risk to human health. Low-cost and... more
Loose soils normally are of weak bearing capacity due to their structural nature. Being exposed to heavy traffic loads, they would fail in most cases. To tackle the aforementioned issue, geotechnical engineers have come up with different... more
The contamination of groundwater by heavy metal, originating either from natural soil sources or from anthropogenic sources is a matter of utmost concern to the public health. Remediation of contaminated groundwater is of highest priority... more
Laboratory experiments were conducted to determine the distribution of various arsenic species in tailings and soils. Other specific goal of the tests were to evaluate the extraction efficiency of arsenic using alkaline or acid washing,... more
The reinforcement of metal matrix composite (MMC) has direct bearing on the quality of drilled hole. Based on the composition, the vibration amplitude varies as the hole is drilled. This in turn affects the quality of the drilled hole.... more
Treating marine clay is important for further purposed in construction and other infrastructure. Marine clay known as sort of clay found both in the littoral and in a few seaward ranges (S. Basackand R & D. Purkayastha, 2009). Base on the... more
In Poland, there is much experience with soil reinforcements and improvements by so-called "micro-blasts", the precisely applied and controlled underground explosions. This method appears to be very effective, unexpensive and fast. In the... more

Methyl tertiary butyl ether (MTBE) belongs to the group of gasoline oxygenates and persistent environment contaminants, and shows potential for biodegradation in aerobic and anaerobic conditions, through application of pure microbial... more
The investigation of patellar tendon reflex involves development of a reflex hammer holder, kinematic data collection and analysis of patellar reflex responses using motion analysis techniques. The main aim of this research is to explore... more
