Assessment of cost overrun factors in construction projects in Nigeria using fuzzy logic

Jude Iloabuchi Obianyo et al.

Summary: This research study used fuzzy logic soft computing tool to evaluate cost overrun factors in the construction industry, based on survey reports from professionals and experts. The results showed that poor communication among stakeholders and contractor's financial constraints were the most severe factors causing cost overruns. The performance evaluation of the fuzzy logic model indicated a good connection between the actual and estimated results, demonstrating a strong predictive performance.

Compressive strength and Scheffe's optimization of mechanical properties of recycled ceramics tile aggregate concrete

Edidiong E. Ambrose et al.

Summary: This study investigates the effect of crushed recycled-ceramic tiles (CRT) fine aggregate content on the compressive strength of concrete and formulates models for prediction. The results show that incorporation of CRT as fine aggregate improves the compressive strength of concrete, and models were found to be adequate at 95% confidence level. Promising results were obtained through sample optimization using the formulated model equations.

Optimization of California bearing ratio of tropical black clay soil treated with cement kiln dust and metakaolin blend

Imoh Christopher Attah et al.

Summary: The study optimized the California bearing ratio (CBR) values of expansive soil treated with cement kiln dust (CKD) and metakaolin (MTK) using the Scheffe optimization method, achieving maximum CBR values and developing CBR models. The statistical analysis confirmed the adequacy of the mathematical models, and SEM and EDX techniques were used to explore morphological and composition variations between natural and optimized soil blends. The observed alterations in soil texture were attributed to the formation of cementitious compounds during the pozzolanic reaction.

Failure assessment of dysfunctional flexible pavement drainage facility using fuzzy analytical hierarchical process

George U. Alaneme et al.

Summary: It has been found through a case study of a failed highway in Nigeria that inadequate drainage facilities can lead to rapid road failure. Soil classification and determination of general subgrade soil properties revealed that the soil was unsuitable for road construction. Recommended solutions include topography study, rainfall intensity evaluation, and re-designing of the highway drainage system with reconstruction using standard materials.
