Accumulated strain prediction of polypropylene modified marshall specimens in repeated creep test using artificial neural networks
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science LTD, 2009)This study presents an application of artificial neural networks (ANN) for the prediction of repeated creep test results for polypropylene (PP) modified asphalt mixtures. Polypropylene fibers are used to modify the bituminous ... -
E-bidding proposal preparation system for construction projects
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science LTD, 2006)The bidding process is one of the most important phases in the construction industry. The major objective of construction companies is to expand business volume by successful bidding on various projects. For this reason, ... -
The effect of polypropylene fibers on asphalt performance
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science LTD, 2008)Polypropylene fibers are extensively used in civil engineering applications for many years. These fibers are used in concrete as a three-dimensional secondary reinforcement. Due to adhesion between polypropylene fibers and ... -
Electricity production opportunities from multipurpose dams (case study)
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science LTD, 2007)The hydropower is the leading source of renewable energy. It provides more than 97% of all electricity generated by renewable sources. The main advantage of hydro systems is elimination of the cost of fuel. Hydropower on ... -
Geoenvironmental behavior of foundry sand amended mixtures for highway subbases
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science LTD, 2006)The high cost of landfilling and the potential uses of waste foundry sands have prompted research into their beneficial reuse. Roadways have a high potential for large volume usage of the foundry sands. A laboratory testing ... -
Impact of cyclic wetting-drying on swelling behavior of lime-stabilized soil
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science LTD, 2007)In this study, the impact of cyclic wetting and drying on swelling behavior of lime-stabilized clayey soils has been investigated. Swelling potential and swelling pressure tests have been carried out on soil mixtures with ... -
The lower employment of women in Turkish construction sector
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science LTD, 2004)More than half of the population of Turkey is women. However, although there is an increase in the number of population, they have still been under-represented in the labour force. The conceptual and empirical elements ... -
Modeling rainfall-runoff process using soft computing techniques
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science LTD, 2013)Rainfall-runoff process was modeled for a small catchment in Turkey, using 4 years (1987-1991) of measurements of independent variables of rainfall and runoff values. The models used in the study were Artificial Neural ... -
Prediction of Marshall test results for polypropylene modified dense bituminous mixtures using neural networks
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science LTD, 2010)This study presents an application of neural networks (NN) for the prediction of Marshall test results for polypropylene (PP) modified asphalt mixtures. PP fibers are used to modify the bituminous binder in order to improve ... -
Utilization of sepiolite materials as a bottom liner material in solid waste landfills
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science LTD, 2014)Landfill bottom liners are generally constructed with natural clay soils due to their high strength and low hydraulic conductivity characteristics. However, in recent years it is increasingly difficult to find locally ... -
Web-based quality control of ready mixed concrete
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science LTD, 2007)The ready mixed concrete industry is an important part of today's construction business environment. This industry provides the required quality of concrete used in construction works. The production of this concrete has ...
