    Abstract: In the article we mainly discussed how to adopt graphical method to show the influence of particle size on the mechanical properties of mixed soils. Based on the extensive experimental data, using triangle graphics, as well as software Matlab, we could describe and model the change of the mechanical properties of mixed soils. Through this method, w... Show More

    Abstract: Construction delays are occurring in every phase of a construction project and are common problems in construction projects in Ethiopia. Moreover, it is well known that the delays in construction projects are the major causes of project failure. If the delay is not identified and the corrective project management decision is not taken in time a pro... Show More

    Abstract: In urban environments, or in the areas where storms are frequent and violent, it is advisable to temporarily store rainfall in balancing reservoir before slackening them with flow controlled in the sewer system or in the natural environment, which limits the risks of flood and the environmental impact. The dimension of these reservoirs can be sizea... Show More
