Flexural Behavior Of Thermoplastic Beams With And Without Frp Reinforcement, Hilmi Coskun Oct 1997

Flexural Behavior Of Thermoplastic Beams With And Without Frp Reinforcement, Hilmi Coskun

Civil & Environmental Engineering Theses & Dissertations

This thesis presents the results of an experimental and theoretical study of the flexural behavior of thermoplastic beams with and without fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP) rebars. Tests are conducted on commercially available thermoplastic beams known as Seatimber. The normal stress-strain relations of both the thermoplastic material and FRP rebars are obtained in tension and compression experimentally. These mechanical property curves are then used as part of the input for developing the theoretical moment-curvature relations using an iterative equilibrium procedure. The moment-curvature relations are in turn used for predicting the beam load-deflection curves via the central finite-difference procedure. Behavior predictions are made …

A Cultural Resource Investigation Of Two Louisiana-Pacific Corporation Parcels, Susie Van Kirk Dec 1996

A Cultural Resource Investigation Of Two Louisiana-Pacific Corporation Parcels, Susie Van Kirk

Susie Van Kirk Papers

During the month of October, November, and December 1996, a Cultural Resources Investigation was conducted on two Louisiana-Pacific Corporation parcels located at Big Lagoon, Humboldt County, California (see Map 1). The survey was requested by Jamie Heltsley of Ron Hunt Surveying & Forestry, Arcata, California. Proposed project plans include the combining of four separate assessors parcels into two assessor's parcels.

The purposes of this investigation were to (1) locate and record project area cultural resources; (2) to evaluate the significance of study area cultural resources; (3) to assess potential impacts to cultural resources resulting from project related operations; (4) to …

Energy Use Analysis Of A Multi-Unit Housing Facility A Parametric Study, Brian David Cooper Jul 1996

Energy Use Analysis Of A Multi-Unit Housing Facility A Parametric Study, Brian David Cooper

Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering Theses & Dissertations

In the continuing effort to reduce the energy use of buildings, design engineers and architects are called upon to design facilities which are more efficient and use less energy. The prediction of the energy used by a building's systems and occupants, for different design options and combinations, is an important part of the design of an energy efficient building.

An energy use analysis was conducted to determine the accuracy of a computerized building energy analysis simulation when only preliminary design information is available. Additional studies were made to determine the accuracy of the simulation as more detailed design, construction and …

Maintenance Conditions And Occupant Behavior In Government Provided Housing In Lagos, Nigeria, Paul Abayomi Bajere Jan 1996

Maintenance Conditions And Occupant Behavior In Government Provided Housing In Lagos, Nigeria, Paul Abayomi Bajere

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

Maintenance conditions and occupant behavior towards maintenance in government housing in developing countries are universal problems. Perceptions, construction technology, competencies, tenureship, cultural tradition, and demographic factors have been identified as major constraints influencing housing maintenance behavior. There was a need for this study because limited literature exists on maintenance of urban government provided housing in Nigeria. Also, the degree of success of the government's efforts concerning environmental cleaning has not been remarkable.

The primary purpose of this study was to investigate the maintenance of government provided housing, as perceived by the residents and observed by the researcher, to determine the …


Groundwater Study: Toyota Motor Manufacturing, Usa Georgetown, Kentucky, Gary Felton, Lyle V. A. Sendlein, Teri Dowdy, Daryl Hines Nov 1995

Groundwater Study: Toyota Motor Manufacturing, Usa Georgetown, Kentucky, Gary Felton, Lyle V. A. Sendlein, Teri Dowdy, Daryl Hines

KWRRI Research Reports

An eighteen month study of the Toyota Motor Manufacturing (TMM) plant site and the surrounding area was undertaken. The basic charge for this project was to characterize the groundwater that is potentially impacted by the TMM plant site. This included occurrence, flow direction, and, if possible, velocity. Because the area is karstified (has sinkholes, springs, caves, etc.) surface water and groundwater are intimately connected and, hence, surface water was frequently an important component of this work.

Data from TMM construction plans and monitoring work done subsequent to construction were elicited from the various repositories within the TMM infrastructure. Aerial color …
