    Abstract:

    Residents have chosen to be living in urban regions in recent years largely due to the accessibility of job opportunities and public services. These led to a fast increase in the amount of people live in urban regions and cities. As a result, a large amount of the property used for agricultural activities was... More

  • Tensegrities and Tensioned Structures

    Mª Dolores Álvarez Elipe
    10-16

    Abstract:

    “Push-and-pull” efficient structures have been inconceivable between XVIII centuries. It is because of the incapacity of obtain an efficient behaviour of tensioned material. Since XVIII centuries, architecture developed some structural knowledge generating novel structural forms in the architecture and engineering that were not known before. Tensegrities and tensioned structures were studied due to the knowledge... More

  • Prospects of Partial Substitution of Cement with Rice Husk Ash for Road Concrete Works

    Abstract:

    Rice Husk Ash (RHA) has been found as a potential partial replacement for cement in concrete. This study attempts to make an evidence based evaluation of the sustainability and benefits of RHA utilisation as partial replacement of cement in road concrete works within Anambra State of Nigeria. The ashes of the rice husks collected from... More

  • Construction Technology and Quality Control of Double Layer Continuous Paving of Cement Stabilized Macadam Base

  • Valuation of laterite in low-cost building in West Africa

    Ibrahima Sow, Ibrahima Khalil Cisse, Souleymane Mbingue

    Abstract:

    The study of the performance of raw clay bricks has made it possible to develop laterite in Eco village construction projects. Identification tests (particle size analysis, Atterberg limits, Proctor, shrinkage limit, and sand equivalent) made it possible to characterize the laterite, the sand, and the E1 mixture (70% laterite and 30% sand). By adding binders... More
