Development of Rock Embedded Drilled Shaft Resistance Factors in Korea based on Field Tests

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2019
Load and resistance factor design (LRFD) is a limit state design method that has been applied worldwide. Because the data for determining LRFD factors in Korea has been insufficient, the resistance factors suggested by American Association of State ...

Field‐Validated Predictive Model for Strain Modulus of Dispersive Clay Stabilized With a Waste Calcium Composite for Sustainable Subgrade Design

open access: yesEngineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 7, July 2026.
A field‐validated predictive model accurately estimates the strain modulus of waste calcium composite‐stabilized dispersive clay. The model provides a reliable, sustainable, and cost‐effective tool for subgrade design, reducing dependence on extensive field testing while improving pavement performance.

Modified vehicle lighting reduces wildlife collision risk by enhancing deer and wild pig avoidance responses at night

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 6, June 2026.
Generally, LED headlights had neutral or beneficial effects on wildlife responses, suggesting they could reduce collisions given the increased illumination levels they provide drivers. Additionally, our results support previous research indicating increased frontal vehicle illumination can reduce dangerous encounters with wildlife. Our findings suggest

Alternatives to the Current AASHTO Standard Bridge Sections [PDF]

open access: yesPCI Journal, 1997
The main objective of this study was evaluate feasible alternatives to the current AASHTO bridge girders used in Indiana. This evaluation included precast pretensioned bridge girders for spans from 30 to 130 feet with girder spacing between 5 and 10 feet up to 12 feet for the longer spans.

Integrated VES–ERI–MASW‐Geotechnical Investigation for Building Foundation Site Suitability at the Proposed Wachemo University Referral Hospital, Hosanna, Central Ethiopia

open access: yesEngineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 5, May 2026.
Integrated VES, ERI, and MASW surveys, constrained by boreholes, delineate a central low‐resistivity/low‐V s weak corridor and more competent volcanic strata at depth. The eastern sector offers preferable foundation conditions, while identified weak zones require ground improvement or deep foundations to mitigate differential‐settlement risk.

Opportunities for the U.S. Geological Survey's National Seismic Hazard Model to Improve Seismic Risk Assessment of Critical Infrastructure

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.
As fragility and risk modeling techniques and computational capabilities evolve, complemented by moving toward more routine and systematic seismic risk assessment of all buildings and critical infrastructure, the authors pose a few critical questions to investigate how the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) National Seismic Hazard Models (NSHMs) can be used
