Structural Health Monitoring of Bridges using Digital Image Correlation: A Case Study
Abstract: The rapid development of the transportation section and continuous change in traffic volume, density, and loading patterns over the last few decades have increased the probability of a hazard and reduced the life of existing bridges. Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) is a process of implementing a damage detection and characterization strategy for engineering structures. This paper presents a review of various trends and technology adopted for SHM. However, it focuses …

Nano-additives in Concrete: Present Scenario and Challenges
Abstract: This research work reviews on nanomaterials in concrete. Now, the conventional concrete properties of nanomaterial utilization have been introduced various attentions to increase. Ultimately, as an introduction, nanomaterial is increasing the strength and durability of the concrete. The nanomaterial is defined as the material that includes the particle size which smaller than 200 nm. Nanomaterials must be at least 500 nm in size. During the research of concrete in the …

Seismic Behavior of RCC Buildings under Revised Seismic Zone Classification by BNBC
Abstract: This study aims at the comparison of provisions of earthquake analysis given BNBC 2017. The revised BNBC 2017 has divided the seismic zones of Bangladesh into four different categories such as Zone-1, Zone-2, Zone-3 and Zone-4 respectively. They have different seismic zone coefficients. Finally structural analysis and design of a typical G+10 storey school building situated in all four seismic zones is conducted to investigate the seismic behavior of that …

An Evaluationof Different Types Soil Stabilization Techniques
Abstract: Soil stabilization is the procedure of improving the shear strength parameters of soil and so increasing the bearing capability of land.It is needed when the territory available for construction is not suited to carry structural load. Soils exhibit generally undesirable engineering properties. Soil Stabilization is the modification of soils to raise their physical attributes.Stabilization can increase the shear intensity of a territory and/or control the shrink-swell properties of a stain, …
