Rapport d'essai de 11 poutres de 8.4m de long sans armature d'effort tranchant. Rupture à l'effort tranchant en présence de fortes, faibles et sans déformations plastiques. Mesures détaillés des déformations dans le plan de l'âme. Conclusions: 1) Réduction ...
Cut-and-cover tunnels behavior at ultimate limit state depends strongly on the interactions between the foundation soil, the backfill and the reinforced concrete structure. Characterization of the potential failure modes of these types of structure necessi ...
5th International PhD Symposium in civil engineering2004
A general calculation model is developed and described starting from the effective load-carrying mechanisme of edge- and point supported (punching shear) slabs. This leads to a simplified and practical design process for shear. This method, originally deve ...
L’approche présentée dans cet article permet de considérer l’interaction entre effort tranchant et flexion en utilisant un modèle physique (et non pas une résistance conventionnelle dans une section de contrôle) où la résistance de l’effort tranchant est f ...
fib-CH, Swiss Contribution to the First fib Congress in Osaka2002
Bridges suspended by prestressed steel tubes. The structural system of suspended girders was used for bridge structures as early as the beginning of the 19th century. Because of the technological advancements in the field of prestressing and due to the hig ...
This paper presents some applications of FRC in Switzerland and recent developments resulting from research activities carried out at Swiss university laboratories. The national recommendation SIA162/6 "Steel Fiber Reinforced Concrete" is also briefly pres ...
International Workshop on Advanced Fiber Reinforced Concrete2004
Le thème de la structure constitue depuis toujours un aspect fondamental de la construction, intéressant aussi bien les ingénieurs que les architectes. Cet ouvrage consacré aux structures en architecture s'est donné pour objectif de contribuer à faciliter ...
