A Python Based Application for Automated Soil Classification Using the Unified Soil Classification System (USCS)

International Journal of Mobile Applications and Technologies

Zeeshan Ahmed, Basit Ali Khan, Ibrahim Muhammad, Ihsan Ullah, Umar Malik

paper · published

Soil being a natural material can behave in any way as it suffers from intrinsic spatial variability that results from natural phenomenon. In this study, a desktop application was developed using Python to automate USCS soil classification, obviating calculation mistakes and saving time.

Experimental and Numerical Investigation of Brick Masonry Panels Strengthened with CFRP and End Anchorages

Undergraduate Thesis, UET Peshawar

Umar Malik, Basit Ali Khan, Ihsan Ullah, Zeeshan Ahmad

thesis · published

This research explores the in-plane shear response of one-third-scale English-bond masonry panels under monotonic diagonal compression to assess CFRP strengthening and the role of through-wall fan anchors. The research uses locally available bricks and mortar to ensure the findings represent typical construction practices in developing regions.
