Seismic Site Response, Analysis and Characterization of Major Cities in UAE
(2011-06)United Arab Emirates (UAE) has experienced significant economic growth in recent years. The accelerated schedule driven projects are compelling designers to use values of seismic hazard (ground motion) that are either ... -
Shear Behavior of One-Way Reinforced Concrete Hollow Slabs Voided with PET Void Formers
(2023-05)In residential reinforced concrete structures, the slab constitutes the largest concrete volume. Reducing its concrete content leads to significant cost savings and environmental benefits. Furthermore, Polyethylene ... -
Shear performance of FRP Reinforced Deep Beams Made of Ultra High Performance Concrete (UHPC)
(2023-12)This thesis studied the shear performance of ultra high performance concrete (UHPC) deep beams reinforced longitudinally with glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars without web reinforcements. Eight beams were ... -
Shear Strength of Fiber Reinforced Recycled Aggregate Concrete
(2018-11)In this research, the shear strength of fiber reinforced recycled concrete was investigated. A High-strength Self Consolidated Concrete (SCC) matrix with 100% coarse recycled aggregate and different types/configurations ... -
Shear Strength of Reinforced Concrete Beams Made with Recycled Coarse Aggregate
(2016-07)The Bee'ah's Waste Management Complex in the Emirate of Sharjah, UAE, has been producing aggregate from construction and demolition wastes for quite some time. However, such a product has not been utilized in structural ... -
Simulation of the Dynamic Effects of Wave Slamming on Flexible Marine Structures
(2022-12)Flexible marine structures such as open piled jetties, which are comprised of a deck supported on piles, are commonly used in coastal areas around the world. Due to certain conditions, these structures are sometimes exposed ... -
Sliding Resistance of Serrated-Base Quay Walls
(2021-11)Waterfront retaining structures, such as quay walls, play important roles in the safety and operation of ports and harbours. Designing waterfront structures under critical loads and conditions is one of the important topics ... -
