Effect of nonplastic silt content on liquefaction behavior of fine sand

Emdadul Karim, Mohammad (Department of Civil Engineering, 2014-02)

To identify the effect of non-plastic silt on the cyclic and monotonic behavior of sand-silt mixtures, total 49 stress-controlled cyclic and 13 strain-controlled triaxial tests have been done on sand-silt mixtures. These ...
Behaviour of randomly infilled RC frames with soft ground floor subjected to seismic loading

Taskin Alam, Md. (Department of Civil Engineering, 2014-05)

Multistoried masonry infilled reinforced concrete (RC) frame with open ground floor is a common building construction practice in Bangladesh. Masonry infills in upper floors make the corresponding floors stiffer; resulting ...
Finite element study of RC slab in punching shear

Jahangir Alam, A. K. M. (Department of Civil Engineering, 2014-10)

Current design procedures and provisions for preventing punching shear failure of reinforced concrete slabs, given in various codes of practice, are largely based on studies of the behavior and strength of simply supported, ...
