  • An Evidence-Based Framework for the Sustainable Rehabilitation of Corrosion-Damaged Historic Marine Structures
    Tamim A. Samman, Ahmed Gouda
    Corrosion and Materials Degradation, 2026
    This paper presents a validated, data-driven framework for the sustainable rehabilitation of corrosion-damaged marine infrastructure, demonstrated through a comprehensive study on a historic coastal structure. The implemented three-phase methodology—integrating advanced condition assessment, evidence-based intervention design, and rigorous performance validation—successfully addressed severe chloride-induced deterioration. Diagnostic quantification revealed that 30% of the primary substructure was severely compromised, with chloride concentrations reaching 1.94% by weight (970% above the corrosion threshold) and half-cell potential mapping confirming a >90% probability of active corrosion in critical elements. Guided by this data, a synergistic intervention combining galvanic cathodic protection, high-performance coatings, and structural strengthening was deployed. Post-repair validation confirmed exceptional outcomes: a complete electrochemical repassivation (potential shift from −385 mV to −185 mV), a 97.3% reduction in chloride diffusion rates, a 250% increase in surface resistivity, and the restoration of structural capacity to 115% of design specifications. The framework achieved a 65% reduction in projected lifecycle costs while establishing a new paradigm for preserving marine infrastructure through evidence-based, multi-mechanism strategies that ensure long-term durability and economic viability.

  • Mechanical Properties and Structural Behavior of Sustainable Ferrock Concrete for Green Construction Applications
    Samy Elbialy, I. Alhoutary, Ahmed Gouda, Amr M. N. Ibrahim, Wael Ibrahim, Amal Hassanin Ibrahim, Waleed Abd-Allah
    Civil Engineering Journal Iran, 2026
    This study aims to develop a sustainable alternative to Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) by investigating the mechanical and structural properties of Ferrock concrete, an iron carbonate-based binder composed largely of industrial by-products. An experimental program was conducted, testing over 114 concrete cubes, 18 cylinders, and 6 full-scale reinforced concrete beams with Ferrock replacing OPC at 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, and 25% by weight. The results demonstrate that a 15% replacement ratio yields a 25% increase in 28-day compressive strength, while splitting tensile strength improves consistently with Ferrock content. Most notably, reinforced beams with 20% Ferrock exhibited up to a 33% increase in flexural capacity, with failure modes shifting toward more ductile behavior and experimental capacities exceeding predictions from ACI 318, CSA A23.3, and Eurocode 2 by up to 62%. This research confirms that Ferrock is not only a carbon-negative material but also a technically superior partial replacement for OPC, offering enhanced strength, ductility, and structural performance for green construction applications.

  • Advancing Seismic Performance: Experimental Behavior of Hybridized Steel-FRP Composite Bars
    Mohamed H. Agamy, Ahmed Gouda, Ibrahim T. Mostafa, Omar F. Nassar, Heba Mohamed EL Said Issa, Ahmed M. Ahmed
    Civil Engineering Journal Iran, 2025
    This study investigates the structural performance of reinforced concrete (RC) columns reinforced with hybrid Steel-FRP Composite Bars (SFCBs), offering a sustainable alternative to conventional steel and fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) reinforcement. Eight large-scale RC columns, measuring 400 × 400 mm in cross-section and 1850 mm in height, were tested under combined cyclic and axial loading to simulate seismic conditions. The experimental variables included SFCB diameters (14 mm, 18 mm, 22 mm), axial load ratios (20%, 30%, 40%), and stirrup spacing (80 mm, 100 mm, 150 mm). The results indicate that SFCBs can effectively replace traditional steel reinforcement, providing comparable load-bearing capacity while significantly improving durability. Columns reinforced with SFCBs demonstrated superior initial stiffness and achieved higher drift ratios than steel-reinforced columns, exceeding the limits set by international design codes (ACI 440.2R, CSA S806-12, Eurocode 8) with maximum drift ratios of up to 6.5%. Increasing the SFCB diameter from 14 mm to 22 mm enhanced peak load capacity by 14%–20% and improved drift ratios by up to 113%. However, higher axial load ratios and wider stirrup spacing were found to reduce ductility. Specifically, increasing the axial load ratio from 20% to 40% decreased ductility by 13.46%, while increasing stirrup spacing from 80 mm to 150 mm reduced ductility by 8.90%. These findings underscore the potential of SFCBs to enhance the performance of RC columns in seismic and corrosive environments, offering a durable and sustainable solution for modern infrastructure. To the authors' knowledge, this study represents the first comprehensive investigation into the behavior of SFCB-reinforced RC columns under combined cyclic and axial loading, providing valuable insights for the design of resilient concrete structures.
  • Numerical study on the punching shear strength of edge steel-reinforced concrete slab-column connections
    Ahmed Gouda
    Results in Engineering, 2025
    • Increasing slab thickness cuts deflection by 95% and reduces strength by 40%. • Column aspect ratio of 2 boosts strength by 21%, but ratio of 5 reduces it by 36%. • Larger column stubs lower strength by 43% due to stress redistribution. • Reducing span-to-depth ratio improves strength by 25% and reduces deflection by 93%. Punching shear failure in steel-reinforced concrete (RC) edge slab-column connections poses a critical challenge in structural engineering, with safety and design efficiency implications. This study investigates the influence of key geometric parameters—slab thickness, column aspect ratio, square column stub size, and span-to-depth ratio—on punching shear strength, a topic underexplored in existing research. A unique feature of this research is the ability to examine the effects of slab thickness, column aspect ratio, and square column stub size independently, without any interference from changes in the span-to-depth ratio, by keeping it constant. This approach has never been achieved before and is impractical in experimental studies. Using finite element modeling, over 20 connection configurations were analyzed to assess their structural behavior. Results showed that increasing slab thickness reduced deflection by up to 95% but decreased punching shear strength by 40% due to stress redistribution. Higher column aspect ratios and larger square column stubs caused strength reductions of 36% and 43%, respectively, while reducing the span-to-depth ratio enhanced stiffness and punching shear strength by 25%. The study also evaluated the accuracy of three design standards—American (ACI 318-19 (22)), Canadian (CSA-A23.3:24), and Japanese (JSCE-2007)—revealing deviations of up to 144% from actual performance. To address these discrepancies, four new equations were proposed, tailored to specific geometric parameters, and validated against available literature, demonstrating superior accuracy compared to existing standards. These findings underscore the limitations of current methodologies and emphasize the importance of incorporating geometric factors to improve slab-column connection designs in modern construction.
  • Strain Behavior of Short Concrete Columns Reinforced with GFRP Spirals
    Loai Alkhattabi, Ahmed H. Ali, Hamdy M. Mohamed, Ahmed Gouda
    Buildings, 2024
    This paper presents a comprehensive study focused on evaluating the strain generated within short concrete columns reinforced with glass-fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars and spirals under concentric compressive axial loads. This research was motivated by the lack of sufficient data in the literature regarding strain in such columns. Five full-scale RC columns were cast and tested, comprising four strengthened with GFRP reinforcement and one reference column reinforced with steel bars and spirals. This study thoroughly examined the influence of various test parameters, such as the reinforcement type, longitudinal reinforcement ratio, and spacing of spiral reinforcement, on the strain in concrete, GFRP bars, and spirals. The experimental results showed that GFRP–RC columns exhibited similar strain behavior to steel–RC columns up to 85% of their peak loads. The study also highlighted that the bearing capacity of the columns increased by up to 25% with optimized reinforcement ratios and spiral spacing, while the failure mode transitioned from a ductile to a more brittle nature as the reinforcement ratio increased. Additionally, it is preferable to limit the compressive strain in GFRP bars to less than 20% of their ultimate tensile strain and the strain in GFRP spirals to less than 12% of their ultimate strain to ensure the safe and reliable use of these materials in RC columns. This research also considers the prediction of the axial load capacities using established design standards permitting the use of FRP bars in compressive members, namely ACI 440.11-22, CSA-S806-12, and JSCE-97, and underscores their limitations in accurately predicting GFRP–RC columns’ failure capacities. This study proposes an equation to enhance the prediction accuracy for GFRP–RC columns, considering the contributions of concrete, spiral confinement, and the axial stiffness of longitudinal GFRP bars. This equation addresses the shortcomings of existing design standards and provides a more accurate assessment of the axial load capacities for GFRP–RC columns. The proposed equation outperformed numerous other equations suggested by various researchers when employed to estimate the strength of 42 columns gathered from the literature.
  • Investigation of Key Parameters Influencing Shear Behavior in Glass-Fiber-Reinforced Polymer (GFRP)-Reinforced Concrete (RC) Interior Slab–Column Connections
    Loai Alkhattabi, Nehal M. Ayash, Mohamed Hassan, Ahmed Gouda
    Buildings, 2024
    This article explores the punching shear behavior of GFRP-RC interior slab–column connections. The parameters tested included the column–aspect ratio (1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, and 5.0), perimeter-to-depth ratio for square column stubs with side lengths of 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, and 0.7 m, and span-to-depth ratios of 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12. A review of the literature revealed that no previous study has investigated the effect of these parameters or their interactions on this type of connection. Numerically, twenty-five slabs were created using finite element (FE) software (V3), each with square dimensions of 2.5 m and a constant thickness of 0.2 m. The central column extended 0.3 m from the top and bottom of the slab. All four sides of the slabs were supported, and the specimens underwent pure static shear load testing. The test results demonstrated that all slabs failed due to punching shear. Increasing any parameter value reduced the punching shear stresses. Additionally, the results indicated that Canadian (CSA-S806-12) and Japanese (JSCE-97) standards for FRP-RC materials generally provided the closest predictions of punching shear capacity compared to the American guideline, ACI 440.1R-22. However, all standards exhibited shortcomings and require enhancement and modifications, particularly to consider the impact of the span-to-depth ratio. Therefore, three equations were developed to predict the shear strength of the connections, yielding better results than those prescribed by the North American and Japanese standards.
  • Effects of change orders on the budget of the public sector construction projects in the kingdom of Saudi Arabia
    Loai Alkhattabi, Ahmed Alkhard, Ahmed Gouda
    Results in Engineering, 2023
    This study investigates the impact of change orders on the budgets of 43 public construction projects in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA). It addresses the research problem of budget fluctuations in construction projects and aims to understand the causes and consequences of change orders. The research employs a comprehensive methodology involving data analysis from these projects to draw meaningful insights. The major findings of the study indicate that approximately 75 % of the change orders could have been avoided with more effective project planning and management. Owners are found to be responsible for around 40 % of the change orders, emphasizing the need for improved collaboration and communication between project teams and owners during the planning phase. Inexperienced contractors contribute to at least 5 % of the change orders, suggesting the importance of evaluating contractor expertise before project awarding. The study also provides two equations for estimating additional funding or surpluses for public projects, taking into account fluctuations in construction material prices. Moreover, it identifies six critical construction materials and trades, such as thermal and moisture protection, site work, concrete work, conveying systems, electrical work, and mechanical work, which have the most significant impact on project budgets. These insights offer valuable guidance for enhancing project planning, mitigating budget overruns, and optimizing cost efficiency in public construction projects.
