Wood is a natural material widely used in construction. Unlike artificial building materials, wood is characterized by natural defects (flaws) that can negatively affect its performance under load. This study proposes a ...

A simple and robust nonlinear dilatation constitutive model with clear mechanics concept is introduced, and the stiffness coefficient matrix of constitutive relationship is presented. A kind of coarsed-grained soil is co...

With the rapid evolution of virtual reality technologies such as digital twins, industrial Internet of Things, edge intelligence, and metaverse, virtual‒reality integration has become a core driving force for the const...

Since the traditional settlement plates have adverse effects on the construction with tedious operations, a new embedded settlement gauge based on the dual-pressure sensors is proposed. Based on the principles of transfo...

Portland cement production is a major contributor to global CO2 emissions, and the scarcity of natural river sand limits conventional concrete production. Despite increasing interest in geopolymer concrete (GPC), studies...

The earthquake liquefaction is one of the direct causes for unstable ground and damage of upper structure. Therefore, the liquefaction assessment is an important part of anti-seismic investigation in engineering. By taki...

The actual engineering problems induced by super low-strength soft clay are paid more and more attention with the rapid development of port and ocean engineering. However, the routine geotechnical experimental method can...

Changsha International Finance Center, the highest building under construction in Central China, is 452 meters high with structure of 93 ground layers and 5 underground layers and an embedded foundation depth of 42 meter...

The sea sand-mud mixture used as filling material is proposed. The strength parameters and compression performance and permeability of soils are compared and analyzed through laboratory tests with different blending rati...

After hydraulic reclamation of the dredger fill, the mud needs some time to deposit. The reinforcement treatment cannot be carried out until the sludge-water separation is completed and the separated water is drained. Th...

In deep excavations with a large area of soft soil, the multi-bench retaining method, which has a short construction period and doesn’t need any horizontal reinforced concrete struts, can be used to replace the method ...

The liquefaction resistant rigid-drainage pile is a new type of pile which can be used in geotechnical earthquake engineering. The pile combines the bearing capacity of rigid pile and the drain-ability of gravel pile. Ba...

To study the deformation, failure and long-term stability of soft surrounding rock (mudstone) tunnel anchorage under heavy loads, the Changjiang River Bridge under construction is taken as an example, in which 1∶30 red...

This work introduces a novel geometrical and analytical modeling framework for predicting the stiffness properties of knitted composites, a class of materials known for their complex architectures and versatile mechanica...

Geothermal energy pile is the new pile technology that combines the ground source heat pump technology and building pile foundation. Due to the pile as the heat transfer carrier of ground source heat pumps, the bearing c...

Recycling of construction waste is essential for sustainable cement-based materials, yet the variable composition of recycled autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC) powder pose significant challenges when used in grouting app...

Reinforced concrete (RC) piers have been widely studied and applied in bridge construction practice. To ensure the normal operation of RC piers under corrosive environments and seismic effects, new corrosion-resistant ma...

Based on the ellipsoid theory of particle flows, that is, an ellipse sliding face is presented in the loosening zone at upper part of tunnels, a method is deduced to calculate the lateral earth pressure coefficient relat...

Based on the test principles of geological mechanics model and engineering geological and hydrogeological conditions of Nansi Lake, 12 geological mechanics model are established. By simulating the coal mining under the l...
