Economical seismic retrofitting of bridges in regions of low to moderate risk of seismic activity Dicleli, Murat; Mokha, A; Zayas, V (2003-01-01) The economical efficiency of friction pendulum bearings (FPB) for seismic retrofitting of typical Illinois bridges is studied. A typical bridge was carefully selected by Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) for the purpose of this study. The seismic analysis of the bridge revealed that the bearings, and substructures of the bridge are vulnerable and need to be retrofitted. A conventional retrofitting strategy is developed for the bridge and the cost of retrofit is estimated. Next, the bridge is furt...
Some characteristics of fibre-reinforced semi-lightweight concrete with unexpanded perlite Okuyucu, Dilek; Turanlı, Lutfullah; Uzal, Burak; Tankut, Tugrul (2011-11-01) Lightweight aggregate concrete is not a new invention of modern concrete technology, but dates back even to before the Christian era. Natural aggregates like scoria or pumice were utilised in masterpieces such as Babylon of the Sumerians, Hagia Sophia in Istanbul or the Pantheon of the Romans. The demand for lightweight aggregate concrete increased over time because of its advantages, specifically properties such as its thermal insulating properties and low density. It has also become an important structura...
State of the art versus state of the practice in bridge evaluation Akgül, Ferhat (null; 2003-11-07) A comparison of the load rating method of bridge evaluation currently used in practice and the reliability-based evaluation method considered to be the method of choice in the future is presented. Evaluation methods may include techniques such as nondestructive evaluation, load testing, corrosion detection, and load rating. The most commonly used method of bridge evaluation in current state of practice is the load rating method mandated by the standards and manuals in this field. Performance assessment base...
An investigation on the lighting systems of the manufacturing floor in electronics industry Kamoy, Leyla; Düzgüneş, Arda; Department of Building Science in Architecture (2010) Required illumination levels in an electronics manufacturing facility were studied in order to provide feedback for architects and engineers. The study was carried out for the production floor of an electronics company in Ankara. The space considered was a Printed Circuit Board Assembly (PCBA) and Surface Mount Device (SMD) production department. The selected area was subdivided into different areas according to required illumination levels for each year. These levels were determined according to the specif...
An investigation into the age-based thermal energy balance of occupied classrooms in primary schools Taner, Özün; Düzgüneş, Arda; Department of Building Science in Architecture (2008) The effect of indoor heat gain from occupants as a bio-thermal source was hypothetically assessed in terms of its contribution to overall heating requirements during such occupancy and hence to potential energy savings. The spaces considered were classrooms in a sample of 6 public co-educational primary schools located within the city limits of Ankara built after 1998, the date when compulsory primary education was integrated to encompass grades 1 through 8 for ages 6 to 14, respectively. Being so, this all...
