Study on Compaction Moisture Range Specifications of North Dakota State and Development of Empirical Equations for Predicting Compaction Characteristics
(North Dakota State University, 2018)Stability of soil plays an important role in the construction of engineering structures like pavements, buildings, embankments, dams, etc. Compaction is the process where proper stability of soil is ensured with required ... -
Studying Window Energy Performance Using Thermal Camera
(North Dakota State University, 2020)Windows, which are responsible for 45% of overall heat loss, play a major role in a building’s energy performance. Therefore, it is critical to measure window energy performance for existing buildings. This study aimed to ... -
The Suitability of Warm Mix Asphalt for Use in North Dakota
(North Dakota State University, 2011)Compared to hot mix asphalt (HMA), warm mix asphalt (WMA) offers several potential benefits, including reduced fossil fuel use and increased workability. The research presented in this paper examined the suitability of ... -
Workers' Compensation Modeling Using Multiple Regression
(North Dakota State University, 2018)Workers’ compensation insurance (WCI) is the highest cost to an employer following accidents. It is needed to predict the benefits value without taking into account the past records of an employee, which is not readily ...
