Dynamic behaviour of unreinforced masonry building

Aminul Islam, Md. (Department of Civil Engineering, CE , BUET, 2018-12-17)

Unreinforced masonry (URM) buildings represent a large portion of the buildings stock around the world and in Bangladesh. During the construction of those buildings very little or no seismic design requirements are considered. ...
Assessment of water quality of selected rivers in Bangladesh using fews software

Sifat Azad Papry (Department of Civil Engineering, CE , BUET, 2019-01-12)

River water quality is a key concern for Bangladesh as river water is essential for drinking and domestic purpose, survival of aquatic life and also for the development of industries and agriculture. Unfortunately, due to ...
Evaluation of design parameters of near embankment underground tunnel structure

Rahman, Asker Rajin (Department of Civil Engineering, 28-03-20)

Now-a-days, traffic congestion is a major problem in many cities. Due to excessive pressure on overland roadways, underground subway or roadway is regarded as an alternative solution to accommodate this huge traffic. For ...
Post evaluation of flyovers with adjoining road-network in Dhaka city

Nafis Anwari (Department of Civil Engineering, CE , BUET, 2018-10-06)

This study has been undertaken with the aim of evaluating the current performance of at-grade road networks in Dhaka city present in the study network of partially grade-separated flyovers. Level of Service (LOS) was chosen ...

Arifa Iffat Zerin (Department of Civil Engineering, CE , BUET, 2018-09-30)

..In the present study, an extensive experimental laboratory investigation has been carried out to study the comparative in-plane cyclic behavior of brick infilled, isolated brick infilled and bare reinforced concrete ...
Strength characteristics of compressed stabilized earth block made with Selected regional soil

Kamrun Nahar (Department of Civil Engineering, CE , BUET, 2018-08-01)

Earth as a construction material has been used for thousands of years by civilizations all over the world. Due to low cost and relative abundance of materials, building with Compressed Stabilized Earth Block (CSEB) is ...
Evaluation of response modification factor for shear wall-flat plate structural systems

Nazmul Alam, Md. (2018-03-25)

Flat Plate (FP) structures are not suitable for use in zones of high seismicity due to their subpar performance in lateral loads. However architectural and functional benefits from adopting this system have contributed to ...
Assessment of inelastic performance of flat plate and wide beam frames

Wamea Raisa Khan (Department of Civil Engineering, CE , BUET, 2018-03-25)

Structural systems such as – flat plates and wide beam column frames are often preferred over conventional beam column framing systems because of architectural, functional and economic considerations. While comprehensive ...
Assessment of fecal sludge management practices in informal settlements of Dhaka city

Babul Bala (Department of Civil Engineering, CE , BUET, 2018-09-30)

Achieving open defecation near to zero is a remarkable success of Bangladesh for attaining MDGs without confirming proper hygienic separation of excreta from human contact. However, under the post-2015 Sustainable Development ...
Characterization of combined sewage in Hatirjheel diversion sewer system and its implications on the dasherkandi STP

Ziaul Ahsan Biswas, Md. (Department of Civil Engineering, CE , BUET, 2018-08-11)
