In this paper, rock mechanics investigations carried out on the future behaviour and support requirements of a large cavern planned to be utilized as a chamber for ore storage which is under early stages of its construction are presented. This cavern which is to be excavated in weak granodiorite and scarp, will have the dimensions of 15 m width, 40 m height, and 60 m length when completed. To reach the goal, rock mechanical parameters have been extensively studied. In this respect, major geological patterns and their strength characteristics have been established together with the physical and mechanical properties of the ore bearing rock (scarp) and the wall rock (marble and altered granodiorite). Moreover, the state of stress in the area was measured. Large proportion of the data thus obtained was integrated into different rock mass classification systems. Back analysis has been carried out. Stability of ore storage cavern is studied and measures to be taken are suggested.

A numerical study on local buckling and energy dissipation of CHS seismic bracing
Kusyilmaz, Ahmet; Topkaya, Cem (Elsevier BV, 2011-08-01)
Seismic provisions for steel buildings present limiting width-thickness and slenderness ratios for bracing members, most of which were established based on experimental observations. A finite element study has been undertaken to evaluate these limits for pin-ended circular hollow section (CHS) steel braces. Uncertainties in modeling and quantification arise in the simulation of cyclic brace buckling. A finite element modeling procedure was developed and calibrated using existing experimental data. Sensitivi...
A drift capacity prediction model for retrofitted reinforced concrete columns
ÖZCAN, OKAN; Binici, Barış (2022-03-01)
Seismic assessment of reinforced concrete (RC) buildings heavily relies on the deformation capacity predictions of members. Similarly, the prediction of the deformation capacity of retrofitted RC columns has the utmost importance for seismic retrofit design. In this paper, a new unified drift model is proposed in order to estimate the rotation capacity of RC columns retrofitted with concrete jacketing, steel jacketing and fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) wrapping. In order to generate the model, an extensive ...
A Study on the utilization of waste cement - bonded wood particle board as a raw material and a secondary fuel in cement manufacturing
Yılmaz, Mustafa; Tokyay, Mustafa; Öztürk, Abdullah; Department of Cement Engineering (2012)
A considerable amount of waste is obtained as a result of edge-cutting operations during cement-bonded wood particle board (CBWPB) manufacturing. This waste material which basically contains wood chips and hydrated cement has to be disposed of and does not have any economical value. However, it can be burned in cement rotary kilns and may result in energy savings to a certain extent due to the presence of wood particles as a secondary fuel and since the hydrated cement may be decomposed and then reform clin...
A preliminary design approach for Güledar irrigation dam project
Karpuz, Celal (1996-03-01)
This paper describes the results of engineering geological and rock mechanics studies carried out at the Güledar irrigation dam project. Project is designed to regulate the drainage and to irrigate the agricultural areas. The dam site is located within Güledar Sirkeli formations composed of sandstone, limestone and diabase. Studies maintained both at field and laboratory. Field studies included geological mapping, core drilling, sampling for laboratory testing, pressurized water tests, and intensive discont...
A Semi-empirical method for estimation of maximum seismic shear strain in imperforated ground excited by vertically propagating shear waves
Dehghanian, Kaveh; Yılmaz, Mustafa Tolga; Department of Engineering Sciences (2016)
Seismic design of underground structures requires calculation of the deformation in surrounding geological formations. The seismic hazard on a site is usually expressed as a function of amplitude parameters of free-field motion. Therefore, simplified relations between depth and parameters of ground motion are necessary for preliminary designs. The objective of this study is to employ random vibration theory to develop a simple relationship between maximum shear strain (γmax), depth, and ground-motion intens...
