Joint strength in RCS frames
(Texas A&M University, 1998)
As part of a National Science Foundation (NSF) program ics. on composite and hybrid systems at Texas A&M University, the objective of this thesis is to investigate the joint strength in reinforced column-steel beam (RCS) ...
Performance-based design of reinforced concrete buildings subjected to seismic forces
(Texas A&M University, 1998)
An approach for evaluating reinforced concrete crographics. structural frame systems subjected to seismic forces under the framework of performance-based design methodology was developed. The method integrates the design ...
An evaluation of modifications to the advance warning sign at passive highway-railroad grade crossings
(Texas A&M University, 1995)
With the passage of the North American Free Trade Agreement Act, there is quite a potential for an increase in rail traffic in the state of Texas. Despite the fact that the number of vehicle-train collisions that occurred ...
Mode I delamination of unidirectional graphite/epoxy composite under complex load histories
(Texas A&M University, 1981)

Prime coats materials and methods
(Texas A&M University, 1994)
A prime coat is the application of a suitable bituminous binder applied to a nonbituminous granular base as a preliminary treatment before the application of a bituminous surfacing. The purpose of this research is to ...
Evaluation of driver braking performance to an unexpected object in the roadway
(Texas A&M University, 1994)
Stopping sight distance (SSD) design values are a major influence in the geometric design of horizontal and vertical alignment. The current SSD equation, developed by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation ...
Determination of factors contributing to team success within the construction project environment
(Texas A&M University, 1994)
The construction industry is plagued with adversarial relations between owners, designers, and contractors. These adversarial relations are often fostered by human resource associated factors such as poor communication, ...
The feasibility of deep well injection for brine disposal
(Texas A&M University, 1994)
A generalized methodology for evaluating the technical feasibility of projects involving the disposal of waste brine by injection into deep saline aquifers is developed, primarily from the hydrology and petroleum engineering ...
Analysis of a conditional active bus priority strategy in a coordinated signal system
(Texas A&M University, 1995)
This experiment was conducted to examine the effects a priority strategy had on the operations of an intersection in a coordinated signal system. A priority strategy was first developed for the intersection then implemented ...
An analysis of factors contributing to train-involved crashes
(Texas A&M University, 1995)
A railroad-highway grade crossing is a unique intersection in that two different modes of transportation (trains and vehicles) use the same physical space. Many factors can contribute to collisions between trains and ...
