SETTLEMENT OF WEAKLY CEMENTED TUFAS
DİPOVA, NİHAT; Ergun, Mehmet Ufuk; Vedat, Doyuran (2014-01-01)
Weakly cemented tufas are sand and silt size soils that are weakly bonded with thin films of carbonate cement. The void ratio is rather high and equal to approximately 1.2. Collapse occurs as a result of the destruction of the weak bonds upon loading and/or wetting. The index properties and the collapse potential (C-p) of tufa were determined in the laboratory. In the determination of the collapse-potential values the single-ring oedometer method was considered to be a suitable and simpler tool. In plotting...

Strengthening of reinforced concrete frames by custom shaped high strength concrete masonry blocks
Arslan, Güray; Polat, Mustafa Uğur; Department of Civil Engineering (2009)
Located on one of the highly active seismic fault systems in the world, the building stock in Turkey is mainly composed of reinforced concrete frames with 4-5 stories. Due to design and construction deficiencies resulting from the use of unqualified personnel and insufficient supervision, many of these buildings lack lateral stiffness, ductility and strength. For many structures, there is a need to alleviate these deficiencies by means of some rehabilitation techniques prior to earthquakes. One approach als...
Stabilization of expansive clays using granulated blast furnace slag(gbfs), gbfs-lime combinations and gbfs cement
Yazıcı, Veysel; Çokça, Erdal; Department of Civil Engineering (2004)
Expansive clays undergo a large swell when they are subjected to water. Thus, expansive clay is one of the most abundant problems faced in geotechnical engineering applications. It causes heavy damages in structures, especially in water conveyance canals, lined reservoirs, highways, airport runways etc., unless appropriate measures are taken. In this thesis, Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GBFS), GBFS - Lime combinations and GBFS Cement (GBFSC) were utilized to overcome or to limit the expansion of an artifi...
Stabilization of expansive soils using waste marble dust
Başer, Onur; Çokça, Erdal; Department of Civil Engineering (2009)
Expansive soils occurring in arid and semi-arid climate regions of the world cause serious problems on civil engineering structures. Such soils swell when given an access to water and shrink when they dry out. Several attempts are being made to control the swell-shrink behavior of these soils. Soil stabilization using chemical admixtures is the oldest and most widespread method of ground improvement. In this study, waste limestone dust and waste dolomitic marble dust, by-products of marble industry, were us...
