Climatic Conditions and Experience of Operation of Port Facilities on Sakhalin Island- Juniper Publishers

Image
 Civil Engineering Research Journal- Juniper Publishers Abstract The article provides an analysis of the operating conditions of port facilities in heavy hydrometeorological conditions on the coast of Sakhalin Island to establish durability characteristics for the development of design life models. Typical types of concrete destruction in the zone of variable level are considered. The directions of research in the field of forecasting the durability of concrete and reinforced concrete structures for seaport facilities on actual durability characteristics are outlined. Keywords: Concrete; Durability; Sea port facilities Go to Introduction The modern design concept of construction facilities according to operational characteristics implies a variable approach to the assignment of requirements to structures and materials for structures, which should guarantee the predicted service life while maintaining the economic feasibility of the service life [1]. The principle of this design app...

Parking Demand for Elementary & Secondary Schools in Jordan- Juniper Publishers

Image
 Civil Engineering Research Journal - Juniper Publishers Abstract This study aimed at investigating parking demand at elementary and secondary schools in Irbid city; the second largest city in Jordan, to identify the main influencing factors, and develop models to predict future demand based on local conditions. The major considered factors included school area, number of students, number of teachers, number of classrooms, gender of students, education level (elementary, secondary), and school ownership (public, private). A total of 118 different types of schools were surveyed from different areas in Irbid City. The required field data were collected on regular weekdays by field surveys and manual counting for the total number of parked vehicles and the variation during the schools working hours, while schools descriptive information’s were obtained from the directorate of education in Irbid city. Peak demand models for different types of schools were developed using multiple linea...

Campus of Vienna University of Economics and Business- Juniper Publishers

Image
 Civil Engineering Research Journal- Juniper Publishers Abstract Vienna University of Economics (WU), which is one of the largest universities in Europe, currently has about 23,000 students and approximately 1,500 teachers. WU has opened a new campus in 2013. Studio which was selected for the development of the site plan was chosen on the basis of the competition for Austrian and German architects in 2007. The following year, an international competition was announced for individual buildings of the campus. What does the realization of this plan looks like? Was it possible to build this campus quite near the center of Vienna? Where does this incredible number of students fit? How do they live and study there? Is it possible for a total of six teams of architects from around the world to design a campus of the future together? What is the transport solution for such a complex? How to study and how to live in the space created like this? What is the public space of this campus about?...

The Selection of Suitable Boundary Conditions for Finite Element Simulations of Deep Tunnels- Juniper Publishers

Image
Civil Engineering Research Journal- Juniper Publishers Abstract In finite element simulations of deep tunnels an appropriate selection of the boundary conditions at the border of the model is important. Commonly, a system with vertically and horizontally fixed boundaries is used for finite element calculations of deep tunnels. In the contribution the shortcomings of this assumption will be explained and the requirements to the model size, which should be considered for this type of boundary conditions, are discussed. An alternative approach is also presented, which is derived from a commonly used approach for c and has been adapted to deep tunnels. Go to Mini Review We speak of deep tunnels if the overburden height is much larger than the other dimensions of the model and therefore it is not possible or useful to model the whole soil or rock mass located above the tunnel. Moreover, the variation of the overburden stress level in the zone of the tunnel is insignificant compared to the a...
