16581 Seismic Assesment Of Simply Supported Vs Continuous Concrete Girder Bridges (case Study Of Selected Bridges)

Seismic evaluations of typical concrete girder bridges are conducted for two existingrnsimply supported bridges, which are common to the Ethiopian highway construction, andrnfor their counterpart continuous girder bridges. These evaluations are performed for anrnapproximate hazard level of 0.1g...

16582 Comparative Evaluation Of Concentrically Bracing System For Lateral Loads On Medium Rise Steel Building Structures

Lateral load resisting systems are structural elements providing basic lateral strength and stiffness, without which the structure would be laterally unstable. The unstable nature of structures is solved by appropriate provision of bracings systems. In this study, steel bracing is provided at the...

16584 Investigation On The Static Modulus Of Elasticity Of Concrete In Compression Made Using Locally Available Coarse Aggregates

The primary objective of this study was to determine the static moduli of elasticity of concrete mixes made of three different coarse aggregate types found locally and to compare the results of the study with the recommended values by Euro code which we are adopting. To see the effect of static...

16585 Fem Based Advanced Torsion Analysis Of Curved Steel Box Girder Bridges

Due to efficient dissemination of congested traffic, economic considerations, and aesthetic desirability, horizontally curved steel box girder bridges are usually best preferred structural unites irrespective of their production costs, in modern highway systems, including urban interchanges. The...

To achieve this goal, bothrnqualitative and quantitative methods ol research were employed. The quantitative partrndeals with educational opportunity...

16587 Comparative Study On Fundamental Period Of Reinforced Concrete Buildings

Fundamental natural period of vibration T of the building is an important parameter for evaluation of seismic base shear. Empirical equations given in current building codes like ESEN 1998-1:2015, EC8 (EN 1998-1: 2004), Applied Technological Council of 1978 (ATC3-06, 1978), American Society of...

16588 Investigation Of Effective Length Method For Slender Reinforced Concrete Column Having Linearly Varying Cross-section

Effective length is the length of the equivalent pin ended column, which has the samernelastic buckling load as the actual column. The effective length method has been used forrnmany decades as the basis for the design of columns made of reinforced concrete, structuralrnsteel or steel-concrete...

The study has aimed at assessing fa ctors affecting implementation ofrnCommunity skill Training Centers (CSTCs) program in Awi Zone. In thernstudy, a descriptive survey method was used. Four Community SkillrnTraining Centers we re selected by purposive sampling method. All the fourrnCSTCs trainees,...

16590 Software Development For Design Of Slab And T-girder Reinforced Concrete Bridges

In bridge design, engineers strive to plan an economical structure that will safelyrntransmit loads to the ground without collapsing or deforming excessively. Since it isrndifficult to predict the exact loading and circumstances that a bridge must withstand, allrnbridge designs include a...

16591 Assessing Code Based Shear Prediction Values Of Reinforced Concrete Beams Using Modified Compression Field Theory

Though different researches have been conducted so far on shear strength of reinforced concrete beam, it is yet not definite to predict it in accurate manner. As a result, different design codes use different empirical formulae based on truss analogy.rnThe truss analogy which was developed...

16592 Influence Of Coupled Shear Wall Components On Structural Behaviour Under Dynamic Loads

The growth of population density and shortage of land in urban areas are two major problems for all developing countries including Ethiopia. In order to mitigate these two problems, the designers resort to high-rise buildings, which are rapidly increasing in number, with various architectural...

16593 Simplified Analysis And Design Considerations Of Precast Joist In One Way Ribbed Slab

The design and analysis of a structural member requires the understanding of the possible loads that act on the system in the life span of the structure. For this reason, the stage of construction of precast joist is classified into two, initial stage and final stage. For each stage this study...

16594 Effect Of Clayey Silt Content On Concrete Stregth

In the present day construction industry in Ethiopia, concrete has emerged as the most common building material. Hence careful consideration must be given to factors that affect its strength. One of the factors affecting the strength of concrete is the amount of clayey silt content of sand used in...

16595 Corrosion Of Steel Reinforcement In Reinforced Concrete Structures Effect And Methods Of Repair

Reinforced concrete structures have the potential to be very durable and capable of withstanding a diversity of adverse environmental conditions. However, failures in structures still occur as a result of variety of defects among which premature reinforcement corrosion is one.rnIn the case of...
