Improving the Bearing Capacity of Road Soil by Treatment with Cement and Lime: Case of National Road No. 4 in the City of Ouagadougou in Burkina Faso
Bernard Gouba, Boukari Sawadogo, Dieudonné Dabilgou
Nowadays, the question of the availability of good quality materials is increasingly raised in road projects. This has led us to techniques for improving the performance of materials that can be used in road layers. Cement and lime treatment is a well-known technique for improving materials in road construction. The test is done by adding a sm(...)

Impact de la toiture sur le transfert de la chaleur des bâtiments dans la zone soudano-sahélienne : Cas de la ville de Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso
GOUBA Bernard, OUOBA Emile, SAWADOGO Boukari
L’Homme réalise son habitation pour se protéger tout en tirant profit des avantages de son environnement direct. En plus, le système climatique mondial connait déjà des
changements profonds. Le Burkina Faso est un pays sahélien caractérisé par un climat tropical sec avec des températures ambiantes très élevées. L’adaptation à ces changements(...)

L’usage des polystyrènes comme matériaux de construction des bâtiments au Burkina Faso : enjeux économiques, sociale et environnementale.
GOUBA Bernard
L’acquisition d’un logement décent à des moindres coûts est une préoccupation majeure au Burkina Faso. En effet, un grand nombre des bâtiments sont construits en matériaux bétons et parpaings. Cette technique de construction des bâtiments avec ces matériaux coûte chère et très énergivores, ce qui pose un problème d’accès pour la majorité des p(...)

USE OF POLYSTYRENE MATERIALS IN THE CONSTRUCTION OF BUILDINGS IN THE NORTH- CENTRAL REGION OF BURKINA FASO: ECONOMIC, SOCIAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES
Gouba Bernard, Sawadogo Boukari , Ouoba Emile
The acquisition of decent housing at lower costs is a major concern in Burkina Faso. Indeed, a large number of buildings are built in concrete and concrete blocks. This technique of building buildings with these materials is expensive and very energy-intensive, which poses an access problem for the majority of Burkinabè populations. In this re(...)

Impacts des granulats recyclés (bétons et des briques) sur les bétons frais dans la région du centre au Burkina Faso
Boukari SAWADOGO, OUOBA Emile, Bernard GOUBA, CUSH NGONZO LUWESI
Le monde de la construction a besoin de granulats de qualité pour la construction des routes, des bâtiments, et des infrastructures publiques, de transport, ainsi que dans la réalisation des travaux d’entretien. Ce besoin continue de s’accroître partout en Afrique en général et au Burkina Faso en particulier. Dans le cas spécifique de cette re(...)

Monitoring of physicochemical parameters during Cocomposting of dehydrated faecal sludge and organic household solid waste: assessment of composts maturity
Ouindpouiré Auguste Aristide Soré and Samuel Ouoba
This study proposes a method of recovery by co-composting of dehydrated faecal sludge (DFS) and solid organic household wastes (SOHW) in Ouagadougou. The city has three drying bed treatment stations which are partially functioning because after the liquid/solid separation, the bio-solids are piled up without final treatment and currently const(...)

New Experimental Methods for Measuring suction and chemical potential of Aqueous Solution of Ethanol in Soil
Samuel Ouoba and Jean-Claude Bénet
In this article we develop various experimental methods for measuring the suction and the chemical potential of water and ethanol in soil. The results obtained are in good agreement between the method using the filter paper and the sorption isotherm at low water contents. The precision is less good for the high water contents between the filte(...)

Characterization of Recycled Aggregates of Concrete and Bricks in the Central Region of Burkina Faso
GOUBA Bernard , SAWADOGO Boukari
Aggregates used in the construction of civil engineering works have an impact on the properties of concrete. For several years the central region is famous because of the effects of extraction of natural aggregates on the environment. We conducted laboratory tests on several recycled aggregates of concrete and bricks to determine their mechani(...)

Development of numerical model to describe water transfer in hygroscopic soil: use of a new method based on off-center upstream principle for convective flux
Samuel Ouoba, Alfa Omar Dissa and François Ouedraogo
This manuscript is focused on the mechanisms of water evaporation and the phenomena affecting its migration toward the groundwater. The objective is to estimate the essential parameters which govern the diffusion transfer. The phenomenological parameters used in the model are obtained experimentally and the mass transfer equations have been so(...)

Numerical Modelling and Simulation of Water Transfer in Soil with Low Water Content
S. Ouoba and J.-C. Bénet
In this paper, we present the results of numerical model and simulation of water transfers in soils with low water content. The main objective is to identify the major phenomena which allow to adequately describe water transfer in soil between the filtration of liquid phase and the capillary rise. We have shown that in the superficial layer of(...)

Traçage de la courbe granulométrique et la détermination des coefficients de Hazen par la méthode analytique
GOUBA Bernard
Sand and gravel make up the granular skeleton in concrete. They contribute to the resistance of concrete structures. They are able to support higher loads or allow more slender constructions. The aggregates can also present varieties of diameter and making it possible to carry out more resistant works. In the laboratory we carried out the siev(...)

Caractérisation du processus de traitement des eaux usées des unités industrielles dans la station de traitement de Kossodo mise en place par l’Office Nationale des Eaux et l’Assainissement (ONEA) au BURKINA FASO
GOUBA Bernard , SAWADOGO Boukari
Les eaux usées des stations de traitement de Kossodo dans la ville de Ouagadougou ont un impact négatif sur l’environnement et sur la population. Pendant plusieurs années la zone de Kossodo est réputée à cause de son odeur nauséabonde due aux eaux usées. Nous avons effectué une étude de terrain afin de mieux caractériser la station d’épuration(...)

Risk of Waterborne Parasitic Infection among Vegetables Producers in the City of Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso: An Attempt to Quantify Them Using the Quantitative Microbiological
Noellie W Kpoda, Hamidatu S Darimani, Adama Oueda, Idrissa Ouédraogo, Gustave B Kabré
The use of wastewater in urban agriculture has been promoted as an alternative to water scarcity and as a means to increase soil fertilizer. However, the use of wastewater in urban agriculture raises major public health concerns, mainly due to the often high concentration of pathogenic micro-organisms. Waterborne parasites are a major health c(...)

Caractérisation d’un réseau d’évacuation optimale des eaux usées muni de capteurs électroniques: Cas de la zone industrielle de Kossodo dans la ville de Ouagadougou au Burkina Faso
Bernard Gouba, Madjoyogo Hervé Sirima , Betaboale Naon
Le dysfonctionnement du réseau d’évacuation des eaux usées constitue un facteur de pollution mettant en cause le bien-être de la population dans la ville de Ouagadougou. La stagnation des eaux usées est le lieu de prédilection des insectes pathogènes. Au cours de notre étude nous avons effectué une sortie d’étude dans la ville qui nous a permi(...)

Role of Temperature and Pressure on The Evaporation Kinetics of trichloroethylene and Heptane in Soil
Samuel Ouoba and Jean-Claude Bénet
This article discusses the influence of temperature and pressure on evaporation of trichloroethylene and heptane. The results show that the liquid content of the compound, the temperature and the ambient pressure influence the evaporation of volatile organic compounds in the soil. It has been shown that as the liquid content of compound
