Following the significant improvement in their properties during the last decade, Distributed Fiber Optics sensing (DFOs) techniques are nowadays implemented for industrial use in the context of Structural Health Monitoring (SHM). While these techniques ha ...
This data paper presents the quasi-static uniaxial cyclic tests of 24 reinforced concrete members, of which 22 feature lap splices and 2 are reference units with continuous reinforcement. The objective of the experimental program is to investigate the infl ...
Objective: We aim to improve operational robustness of liquid scanning probes. Two main failure modes to be addressed are an obstruction of the flow path of the processing liquid and a deviation from the desired gap distance between probe and sample. Metho ...

Punching shear failures of structural concrete members have been the focus of attention of numerous works presented over the last decades. Although various rational approaches have been developed to predict these failures, there is still no unanimity on a ...

The Elastic Plastic Stress Field method (EPSF) is a widely used tool for design and verification of structural concrete works. EPSF uses the elastic-plastic material behavior, which allows accounting for compatibility conditions and thus provides exact sol ...

Large efforts have been devoted in the past to understanding size effect in shear failures of members without transverse reinforcement. Experimental works have demonstrated that increasing the size reduces the nominal shear strength provided that the failu ...

A traditional difficulty in the understanding of the role of the various shear transfer actions in members without transverse reinforcement has been a lack of detailed measurements on the development of shear cracking and their associated kinematics during ...

A meso-scale numerical model for simulating damage in concrete due to ASR is presented. It accounts for the internal structure of concrete including aggregates and mortar. ASR sites are explicitly represented. This model is extended to account for viscoela ...
This paper presents the results of 28-month-long monitoring of a slab portion of the Chillon viaducts in Switzerland using strain gauges and thermocouples. This post-tensioned reinforced concrete structure was strengthened with a layer of reinforced ultrah ...
The 1987 Hirschigrabe landslide was triggered by a rain intensive period and formed a natural dam to the Zulg river. The natural dam did not break and as such, only the uncertainties concerning the security of some houses within the surrounding settlement ...
