Construction and demolition waste (CDW) has been recently identified as a potential aluminosilicate source for geopolymers. However, the available research mainly focused on developing CDW-based geopolymer pastes mortars, while studies concretes sourced from CDW have very limited. Thus, current study aimed at experimentally identifying different materials suitable producing concretes. Additionally, analysed mechanical, microstructural, environmental properties of CDW- based concrete...
Abstract Digital technology applications such as three‐dimensional printers offer novel avenues for automating the construction of concrete structures. The process 3D printing structures involves designing in an office setting and on‐site. This sequential approach to makes achieving fully automated practice unfeasible. To address goal printing, this study proposes design tool utilizing artificial intelligence (AI) techniques ascertain capacities 3D‐printed walls conduct necessary tasks each...

The seismic performance of the tallest roller-compacted concrete gravity dam in Turkey is investigated this study. For purpose, two- and three-dimensional nonlinear dynamic finite element analyses were conducted to investigate expected damage under simulated ground motions. Based on results simulations, it was found that behaviour substantially different from idealised two-dimensional monolith behaviour, even for a having monoliths separated with transverse joints. In addition, determined...
This study proposes a hybrid modeling approach for the seismic performance assessment of unreinforced masonry buildings. The method combines finite-element and equivalent-frame approaches such that more powerful features each are utilized. is used to model components different geometrical material characteristics with high level accuracy. Then this numerically simulated database in analytical buildings equivalent beams columns instead spandrels piers. Thus it becomes possible building as...
Abstract Global warming triggered efforts on sustainable materials in any area of production. Thus, the construction were also at edge a sharp change to achieve less harm environment by reducing carbon print. Consequently, researchers have been trying replace cement from mixtures reinforced concrete as production causes large amounts dioxide emissions. Alkali‐activated binders are proved be versatile alternatives cementitious binders; however, accurate mathematical models predict capacities...
Summary Inspired from the simplified single degree of freedom modeling approach used in preliminary design concrete gravity dams, a pseudo‐dynamic testing method was devised for seismic dam section. The test specimen 1/75 scaled section 120‐m‐high monolith Melen Dam, one highest dams to be built Turkey. idealization validated first stage study using numerical simulations including dam–reservoir interaction. Afterwards, conducted on three ground motions corresponding different hazard levels....
