Abstract: The Technical Specification represents a dynamic document, subject to continuous evolution through the ongoing inclusion or exclusion of the latest techniques and technologies over time. This study thoroughly examines the Third Edition of the Roads and Highways Department (RHD) Technical Specification (2016) pertaining to the production and placement of dense bituminous surfacing. The scope of modification is assessed based on current state-of-the-art technologies. Various elements of the existing specification, including minimum and maximum VMA requirements, VFA range, lift thickness, field density measurement system, aggregate gradation, and binder grading, appear to be inappropriate. This study identifies the inadequacies and proposes improvements such as restrictions on natural sand content, the use of hydrated lime, incorporation of the Baily method in aggregate blending, Apparent Film Thickness requirements, Gmm criteria, HMA performance tests, and statistics-based quality acceptance. These enhancements are expected to significantly enhance the assurance of bituminous surfacing performance. Furthermore, introducing a certain level of flexibility in specification requirements related to census and strength properties of aggregates, considering the design traffic environment and layer position, could optimize performance, economics, and sustainability.

Keywords: VMA, VFA, lift thickness, hydrated lime, Baily method and performance test.

Abstract: Conservation, in general, is a set of activities lead to preserving or protecting a resource or something before it is depleted or consumed due to natural causes or human activities, while Sustainability is considered as a positive action to maintain resources on a certain level. In a way Conservation is serving the purpose and leading to sustainability. This paper examines the Heritage Building Conservation activities and how they are affecting the Sustainability factors. A break down for Heritage building conservation activities was used to evaluate impact of them on these factors and ways to improve their performance. It was concluded that Heritage Conservation is a Sustainable process with a varying performance regarding the Sustainability pillars, the Economic and Social factors achieved a high compatibility with the Sustainability factors with a degree of compliance ranging between 83% and 100% respectively due to the positive impact on community related aspects, such as tourism, employment, craftmanship education, traditions and religion whilst the Environmental factors showed less influence due to the nature of the material and construction techniques used.  Many measures could be introduced to improve the Environmental factors towards Sustainability like, Aerosols using propellants, such as hydrocarbons and compressed gases like nitrous oxide, which do not deplete the ozone layer, improving equipment and material used such as fuel, lead and construction additives, adopting techniques to reuse stone/brick production and repairs wastes and examining the feasibility of using less health harmful materials in Heritage Conservation applications.

Abstract: PCMs (Phase-Change Material) are the type of materials that tends to change its materialistic property when subjected to temperature change. They change into liquid form while absorbing heat at melting point and will regain its solid form under solidification temperature. i.e., Paraffin wax is a form of PCM and it changes to liquid form at 46 ºC and will turn into solid when kept for some time at room temperature (Paraffin wax have a melting point in the range of 46ºC - 68ºC). These materials releases or absorbs energy during phase transition. These materials have a wide range of application in space technology. PCM’s are used in heat sinks as it helps in the efficiency of thermal control systems.

Abstract: The average Californian uses 48 gallons of water per day. This can be from your morning shower, your toilet flushes, or you washing your hands. When using this water, many do not think about where this water goes or comes from. Many believe that the wastewater goes straight to the ocean, however this is untrue. Instead, wastewater undergoes an extensive process of filtration and treatment before it is released back into a body of water like the ocean or reservoirs so that it can return to the natural water cycle. California has a harsh history with water supply with its residents often facing constant drought. Therefore, it is vital that the wastewater treatment process is made as effective and efficient as possible to make the best use of the water that is available.

Abstract: The corrosion and breaking of pipes in the upstream oilfield activities are due to salty water, carbon dioxide, and hydrogen sulfide gas emitted during the exploration and production of oil and gas. Also, the upstream activities involve high pressure and temperature that causes deformation and eventually tearing and leakages of oil and gas pipes. This causes huge financial losses and risks to the industry. The cost to repair the leakages and associated failures adversely affect the oil plant's production. To overcome this challenge, Saudi Arabia explored the technological solutions that can bring long-term solutions to the persistent leakages. The nonmetallic Reinforced-Thermosetting-Resin (RTR) piping has been considered a perfect replacement for the carbon steel piping in upstream oilfield. The RTR is made of composite materials resistant to high temperatures, high pressure, corrosion, and deformation from harsh environmental and operational conditions. The increased adoption of RTR pipes in the upstream sector has increased the lifecycle of pipes due to their resistance to corrosion and deformation by high temperature and pressure. The composite materials are lightweight, locally available, and cheap to acquire, with superior fatigue resistance to outstanding conditions than the conventional carbon steel pipes.
