Previous investigations of the Urban Heat Island (UHI) effects have highlighted the long-term
negative impacts of urban street canyons on surroundings temperatures that indirectly …

Studies on RPSC (road pavement solar collectors) have shown the potential of reducing the
UHI (urban heat island) effects by dissipating the heat from the pavement for energy …

Austenitic stainless steels Cr-Ni (Types 304, 304L, 321, and similar) and Cr-Ni-Mo (Types
316, 316L, 316 Ti, and similar) are susceptible to atmospherically-induced stress corrosion …

This study investigates full-depth deck cracks observed on a skewed bridge, which was
constructed using self-propelled modular transporters (SPMTs). To investigate the causes …

This study aimed to determine the material properties and the thickness of the layers of an
unbonded jointed plain concrete pavement design over a deteriorated flexible pavement …

Asphalt, concrete and interlocking concrete block paving (ICBP) are the most commonly
used paving materials. Artificial pavements are one of the key factors for the urban heat …

In this review article, we will appraise existing, relevant literature documenting investigations
conducted by other researchers. The review will evaluate the methodology used in the other …

Concrete pavements feature prominently in the urban landscape for roadways, parking lots,
sidewalks, trails, and driveways. Although conventional concrete pavements start out with …

Premature deterioration of reinforced concrete (RC) structures resulting from exposure to
aggressive environments is a serious challenge faced by civil engineers. Highway bridges …
