Business and Information Technology Faculty Research & Creative Works

Students from Ten Schools, Representing Seven Countries, Used Interactive Multimedia as a Part of their Engineering Statics Classes. the Software Consisted of Four Modules, Which Focused On: Mohr's Circle; Centroid and Moment of Inertia; Stress Transformation; and Structural Analysis. the Students Completed On-Line Surveys About their Experience with the Software. Analysis of the Results Indicated that Students Rated their Knowledge of the Subject Matter Covered in the Software as Increasing Significantly as a Consequence of using the Software. However, This Increase Was Substantially More Pronounced for Students in U.S. Schools. Students Rated the Software as Significantly More Effective Than their …

Modeling Concrete Masonry Walls Subjected To Explosive Loads, Christopher D. Eamon, James T. Baylot, James L. O'Daniel

Civil and Environmental Engineering Faculty Research Publications

Concrete masonry unit walls subjected to blast pressure were analyzed with the finite element method, with the goal of developing a computationally-efficient and accurate model. Wall behavior can be grouped into three modes of failure, which correspond to three ranges of blast pressures. Computational results were compared to high-speed video images and debris velocities obtained from experimental data. A parametric analysis was conducted to determine the sensitivity of computed results to critical modeling values. It was found that the model has the ability to replicate experimental results with good agreement. However, it was also found that, without knowledge of actual …

Collapse Of 2000 Commonwealth Avenue: Punching Shear Case Study, Suzanne King, Norbert Delatte

Civil and Environmental Engineering Faculty Publications

On January 25, 1971, two thirds of a 16-story apartment building collapsed while under construction at 2000 Commonwealth Avenue, Boston, Massachusetts. Four workers died after a failure on the roof instigated a progressive collapse all the way to the basement, where the men were found. Fortunately, the collapse occurred slowly enough for most of the other workers to run to safety. An investigation, conducted by a commission assembled by the Mayor of Boston, painted a picture of a troubled project, with considerable confusion about responsibility for structural safety. The surviving workers’ descriptions of the failure provide a textbook definition of …

Undergraduate Summer Research In Structural Engineering, Norbert J. Delatte

Civil and Environmental Engineering Faculty Publications

For the last seven years, a summer Research Experiences for Undergraduates site in structural engineering, funded by the National Science Foundation, has operated at the University of Alabama at Birmingham. During this time, 33 students from 22 colleges and universities have participated in the site. Participants are recruited nationally and have come from as far away as California and Puerto Rico. The program is intended to provide students interested in graduate studies with an introduction to research methods, and to provide students who will not continue their studies past a bachelor of science in civil engineering with a better understanding …

Corrosion Of Galvanized Fasteners Used In Cold-Formed Steel Framing, American Iron And Steel Institute

CCFSS Library (1939 - present)

This research program investigated the potential for corrosion of galvanized fasteners used in cold-formed steel framing by exposing test samples to a variety of environmental conditions frequently found in Hawaii and elsewhere. The results of this research will aid in the evaluation of galvanized fasteners in various exposure conditions. Five field enclosures were constructed on the island of Oahu at coastal locations on both windward and leeward shores, and in the interior of the island. Each field enclosure represented various aspects of typical cold-formed steel construction and was equipped with a complete weather station. This report details the design, construction …
