Safety Performance Evaluation of Plate Transitions from Fixed Concrete Barriers to Portable Concrete Barriers Using Simulation
Background Longitudinal barriers are systems that consist of three basic elements: end treatments, length of need sections, and transitions. Each element needs to be designed and evaluated to assure that safety requirements are met. This applies to transitions for portable concrete barriers (PCB). The specific design features of PCBs and their associated size and mass complicate the design for ...
متن کاملEngineered Barriers
Assurance requirements were included in the disposal regulations to compensate in a qualitative manner for the inherent uncertainties in projecting the behavior of natural and engineered components of the repository for many thousands of years (50 FR 38072). Section 194.44 is one of the assurance requirements in the Compliance Criteria. Section 194.44 implements the assurance requirement at Sec...
متن کاملPerformance of High-strength Concrete
This research was undertaken to investigate performance of high-strength concrete incorporating mineral admixtures, fly ash and silica fume. For modern construction, the use of new construction materials is increasing to achieve economy and improved final results. An extensive literature search was carried out to review various engineering properties of high-strength concrete. In this study, th...
متن کاملHigh-performance, High-volume Fly Ash Concrete for Sustainable Development
For a variety of reasons, the concrete construction industry is not sustainable. First, it consumes huge quantities of virgin materials. Second, the principal binder in concrete is portland cement, the production of which is a major contributor to greenhouse gas emissions that are implicated in global warming and climate change. Third, many concrete structures suffer from lack of durability whi...
متن کاملChloride Ingress Resistant Concrete: High Performance Concrete Containing Supplementary Composites
1 Associate Professor of Structural Engineering College of Engineering, King Saud University Email: [email protected] Abstract – In Reinforced concrete structures chloride ion penetration is considered to be a major cause of corrosion of reinforcing bars. Conventional concretes fail to prevent the intrusion of moisture and aggressive ions adequately. The use supplementary cementing composite ma...
