Earthquakes represent one of the most destructive natural hazards, capable of causing severe structural damage, loss of life, and substantial economic disruption.

The rapid expansion of construction, mining, and stone-processing industries has led to the large-scale generation of stone waste materials such as marble powder, granite slurry, quarry fines, and sandstone residues.

This study presents the evaluation of vertical and lateral loads acting on a bridge pier–pedestal system subjected to self-weight and vehicular loading.

This study looks at the potential for oil and gas in northwest Kenya, giving a broad overview of the geology, tectonic (earth movement) features, and underground rock layers in four main basins from the Cretaceous to Tertiary periods: Lotikipi, Lake Turkana, Lokichar–Kerio, and Chalbi.

Slope stability assessment of open pit mines is critically important, since it forms part of the overall productivity and safety management strategy of the mines. The aim of this work is to investigate the overall stability conditions of three (3) open pits in Gold Fields Limited, Tarkwa Ghana.

This work presents an industrial waste-derived subbase material that can take the place of conventional granular material for subbase in hardstand foundation construction.
