Education
Master in Geotechnical Engineering; (Middle East Technical University), Ankara 2013.
Thesis title: Use of granulated blast furnace slag, steel slag and fly ash in cement -bentonite slurry wall construction.
Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Erdal Cokca.
Bachelor of Civil engineering; Mahabad Azad University, Mahabad, West Azerbaijan, Iran (2000-2005).
Asgari Technician School; Orumieh, West Azerbaijan, Iran (1996-1999)
Research experience
The aim of my research is to diminish groundwater flow rate in to the contaminated zone by using of low permeable
mixtures as slurry wall material.
Use of Industrial waste pozzolanic materials such as; fly ash, two types of ground granulated blast furnace
slag and steel slag with different replacement of Portland cement.
Tests: Permeability, unconfined compressive strength, Consolidation, Direct Shear and index tests
Prepared specimens subjected to test in 7days, 28 days and 90 days of curing time.
