Golam Rabbane, Md. (Department of Civil Engineering, BUET, 2017-06-18)

ABSTRACT The present experimental investigation involves the study of liquefaction susceptibility of sands of varying coarseness collected from three selected locations of Bangladesh and the samples were designated as ...
Development of a Behavioral Model for Household Level Cyclone Evacuation Decision Making

Das, Tanmay (Department of Civil Engineering, 2017-04-29)

The critical role of evacuation, particularly for the communities in underdeveloped countries exposed to cyclone, has been perceived after some disastrous evacuation experiences in recent cyclones. A profound insight of ...
Strength comparison of masonry wall made of clay burnt brick with frog mark and machine made brick without frog mark

Rafiqul Islam, Mohammad (Department of Civil Engineering, 2017-07-03)

ABSTRACT Compressive strength, shear strength and Modulus of elasticity of masonry are significant parameters when considering structural masonry design. For simulation of structural behavior of masonry buildings, ...
Experimental and analytical investigations on skin friction and end bearing resistance of single pile

Hasinur Rahman, Md. (Department of Civil Engineering, 2016-12-31)

ABSTRACT In this thesis work, an analytical method is established to separate skin frictional resistance and end bearing components for a given load on a pile. The method is based on static load-settlement data and ...
Study on land-use and land cover change of Dhaka eastern region and its impact on water cycle

Habibul Huq, Md. (Department of Civil Engineering, 2017-10-25)

ABSTRACT This study was focused mainly to identify the impending land-use and land-cover (LULC) change of Dhaka Eastern Region (DER) due to urbanization and assess its impact on two important hydrological parameters of ...
Assessment of rural transport accessibility in Bangladesh

Aminul Islam, Md. (Department of Civil Engineering, 2017-04-19)

Investigation of corrosion potential of local reinforced-concrete mixes in harsh environment

Bose, Baishakhi (Department of Civil Engineering, 2017-06-21)

ABSTRACT Reinforced concrete (RC) is an ubiquitous building material in structural engineering. Corrosion of RC structures is one of the leading reasons for the loss of serviceability and dilapidation of infrastructures. ...
Pile Load Capacity using Static and Dynamic Load test

Halder, Anup Kumar (Department of Civil Engineering, 2016-04)

ABSTRACT Piles are common for construction of deep foundation in Bangladesh. Confirming the pile capacity is a job for a geotechnical engineer. From the soil investigation data, piles can be designed but it need to be ...

Sen, Debasish (Department of Civil Engineering (CE), 2017-03)

This study intends to investigate the performance and behavior of steel jacketed Reinforced Concrete columns under eccentric loads. An experimental program has been designed to identify the behavior of jacketed RC columns ...
Creep characteristics of concrete made of brick chips in Bangladeshi environment

Roy, Sushanta (Department of Civil Engineering (CE), 2012-03)

To study the effect of brick chips as coarse aggregate on creep behavior of concrete, a comprehensive testing program is conducted at Bangladesh University of Engineering & Technology, Dhaka, Bangladesh. Concrete cylinder ...
Study of noise hazard in bus interior in Dhaka City

Riyajul Haq Munshi, Md. (Department of Civil Engineering (CE), 2015-01)

The problem of urban mass transit noise pollution is universal and in the past few decades it has grown to the point that it has become a major concern for both the public and the policy-makers. Dhaka is one of the most ...
Treatment of domestic wastewater by subsurface flow constructed wetland

Maharam Dakua (Department of Civil Engineering (CE), 2015-06)

Constructed wetlands have been used for decades mostly for the treatment of domestic or municipal sewage. For a small community with limited funds for expanding or updating wastewater treatment plants, constructed wetlands ...
Assessment of perceived service quality in marine passenger vessel using structural equation approach

Minhajul Islam khan, Md. (Department of Civil Engineering (CE), 2016-12)

This study is an attempt to model the causal relationship between overall perceived service quality (SQ) and SQ variables of marine passenger vessel operating in different inland routes of Bangladesh, using Structural ...
Road crossing behavior of pedestrians at unsignalised intersection of Dhaka city

Ali Akbar, Md. (Department of Civil Engineering (CE), 2017-03)

Pedestrians’ road crossings behavior in Bangladesh has become a major concern in road traffic flow, especially in urban areas where there are no controls for pedestrians’ road crossing. With the increase of motor vehicles ...
