Design formulations for calculation of bond strength in structural concrete members usually include a number of parameters such as the stress acting in the reinforcement, the concrete cover and the diameter of the reinforcing bars. These parameters are act ...
Im Rahmen eines europäischen Forschungsprojektes unter Federführung der École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) wurde ein vierstöckiges Gebäude mit Mauerwerks-und Stahlbetonwänden auf dem Rütteltisch des TREES-Labors am EUCENTRE in Pavia (Italien) ...
Roman concrete was used as building material during Roman Imperial times for a great number of famous constructions with different functions. Well-known examples are aqueducts, for example the Pont du Gard in France and the Aqua Alexandrina in Rome, and nu ...
It is recognized that most damage to reinforced concrete structures is caused by insufficient durability rather than by low strength. In most cases, the quality and thickness of the cover concrete (covercrete) determine the service life of the structure. S ...
The paper considers the impact of multiple shareholder-oriented governance practices on R&D decisions. Based on a sample of 5,528 firms belonging to 110 large French listed business groups, our results substantiate the idea that shareholder-oriented govern ...
The need to maximise the lifetime of existing road bridges necessitates clear and efficient tools for engineers to perform structural safety verifications based on monitored data. This study develops methodologies for ultimate limit safety (ULS) verificati ...
It is recognized that most damage to reinforced concrete structures is caused by insufficient durability rather than by low strength. In most cases, the quality and thickness of the cover concrete (‘‘covercrete’’) determine the service life of the structur ...
The dynamic traffic assignment (DTA) problem is to find the state of a transportation system where demand (travel behavior) and supply (network performance) are mutually consistent. The difficulty of solving this problem with mathematical rigor led to the ...
The durability of concrete is a major challenge for the construction, which devotes one third to one half of its annual investment to building maintenance. The lack of field data regarding concrete durability, especially in the case of exposure to sulfate ...
There is currently a lack of established calculation method for the geotechnical design of heat exchanger piles. Thermo-mechanical effects are ignored and large overall security factors are therefore applied. This paper presents a new geotechnical numerica ...
