Mit der Normenreihe SIA 269 stellt der Schweizerische Ingenieurund Architektenverein seinen Mitgliedern ein Hilfsmittel zur Verfügung, das den Umgang mit bestehenden Tragwerken wesentlich verbessern wird und dabei die Kreativität der Ingenieure herausforde ...
The postfire mechanical performances of water-cooled full-scale GFRP cellular columns subjected to axial compression were evaluated after exposure to an ISO-834 fire from one side for periods of 60 and 120 mins. The elastic modulus and postfire buckling lo ...
Civil engineers are more and more often confronted with constructions in urban environment. It is then essential to be able to accurately assess the initial state, and the evolution of the safety during construction stages. While traditional geotechnical e ...

Structural fire endurance experiments were conducted on full-scale cellular glass fiber-reinforced (GFRP) columns under axial compression and subjected to ISO834 fire exposure from one side. Unprotected columns can resist fire for more than 30 min, which i ...
Reliable collapse assessment of structural systems under earthquake loading requires analytical models that are able to capture component deterioration in strength and stiffness. For calibration and validation of these models, a large set of experimental d ...
An experimental campaign supports a model named TransChlor for bringing liquid water moved by capillary suction and chloride ions into concrete. The principal objective of the experimental campaign is to represent conventional concretes under real conditio ...
Glass-fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) cell-core sandwiches are composed of outer GFRP face sheets, a foam core, and a grid of GFRP webs integrated into the core to reinforce the shear load capacity. One of the critical failure modes of cell-core sandwich s ...
The postgraduate course for construction management and economics at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne is an e-learning course for architects and civil engineers. The students are mostly fulltime employees, who put a strong emphasis on ...
The extremely low permeability of Ultra-High Performance Fibre Reinforced Concretes (UHPFRC) associated with their outstanding mechanical properties make them especially suitable to locally "harden" reinforced concrete structures in critical zones subjecte ...
