Seminar organized by the Department of Civil Engineering

The Department of Civil Engineering - Faculty of Engineering - Anbar University and within the scientific and cultural curriculum (Chapter II) for the academic year 2017/2018 Seminar Seminar:

(Project proposals for graduate students for 2017/2018) Submitted by the following:

* a . M . Dr. Taher Mahmoud Ahmed.

* M . Dr. Muayed Abdul Jabbar Ahmed.

* M . Dr. Duraid Moayed Abdul.

The seminar will be held on Tuesday 15/5/2018.

On the session a. M . Dr. Akram Shaker Mahmoud Head of Civil Engineering Department.

The seminar was divided according to specialization to two axes:

** The first axis ,,

 Application of Warm Asphalt mixtures in Iraq

It is a research submitted by a. M . Dr. Taher Mahmood Ahmed and Eng. Dr. Duraid Moayed Abdul.

 The aim of this study is to study and apply new WMA mixtures in Iraq and to mix with lower temperatures than is required for conventional HFA mixtures at 30 ° C or more, which has been widely popular in Europe and the United States of America due to its great positive impact in terms of engineering and environment. The study also includes the study of the effect of various sources of bonding material and soft granular materials on the properties of new asphalt mixtures. It should be noted that the implementation of this research is a source and reference possible to be used by local and international companies specialized in the field of road construction for the purpose of using such mixtures environmentally friendly in Iraq.

** The second axis ,,,

Improving Mechanical Properties of Saline Subgrades.

It is a project submitted by M. Dr. Muayed Abdul Jabbar Ahmed.

The idea of ​​the project is to study the effect of adding a low-cost, environmentally friendly material to address the problems of the original soil layer, which is the basis of the road. The method of conducting the research is to carry out a set of laboratory tests and within the possibilities available in the university laboratories to test the stability of the additive under specific hydrological and environmental effects and then to test the effect of the additive on the properties of mechanical soil such as compressibility, bearing shear and durability ratio. Laboratory work is required for 6-8 months, and the project is currently being funded for the project because it is of direct practical importance in the performance of the road system, especially the internal ones.

The seminar was attended by the chairman and members of the scientific committee and all the faculty members in the department and graduate students for the research and preparatory year.
