Analysis and Behaviour of Skewed Box Girder Bridge
Abstract: Box girder bridge differs from the other bridges in that it is having better stability, economy and havingaesthetic appearance. Box girder bridges are having good strength and torsional stiffness. Mostly forthe long span, box girder is used. In this study, skew angles of 0 to 60° show different results in forcesand moments. The effect of skew angle 0 to 60° with same span is different. In the present study, thespan …

Correlating the Strength Parameters of Rubber Modified Asphalt Concrete
Abstract: Building verified models can help in predicting performance characteristics of asphalt concrete and saving time and money. An attempt has been made in the present investigation to prepare asphalt concrete mixtures for wearing course. Crumb rubber was implemented to prepare modified asphalt binder, which was obtained from Nasiriyah, Erbil, and Dourah oil refineries. Asphalt concrete specimens of control and rubber modified binder have been prepared and tested for Marshall stability, …
