This paper presents the results of an experimental test series on the soil-structure-pavement interaction in the vicinity of the transition slab at the end of an integral bridge. The main function of transition slabs is to ease the transition between the b ...
Modern bridge construction all over Europe in the last decades, has highlighted the importance of steel solutions for the design of bridges. Steel bridges have become slender and lighter with the generalisation of welded connections. These features increas ...
The first cast-on site application of UHPFRC in Switzerland took place for the rehabilitation and widening of the bridge over river La Morge in 2004. Since then, over the last 10 years, this technology spread successfully in Switzerland for bridges and bui ...
Geothermal energy is heat energy generated and stored in the Earth. With the awareness of the society about environmental issues, geothermal power is developing worldwide. It is cost-effective, reliable, sustainable, and environmentally friendly but has hi ...
In this work, we present the SmartBridge, a novel bridge section model equipped with actively controlled arrays of flaps aiming at mitigating wind-induced vibrations of long-span bridges. The active model, as well as its support structure, is described in ...
This paper presents an investigation of the influence of vehicle transverse in-lane position on bridge traffic load effects. To analyze the influence, both finite-element analysis and statistical analysis methods are used, and various technical aspects are ...
Selected applications of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) sandwich structural elements in building and bridge construction are discussed. It is shown how in building construction this technology enables the integration of functions such as load-bearing capac ...
Precision mechanics: the buvette (pump room) of Évian-les-Bains is not just an architecture of great formal elegance, but above all an extraordinary technological object, a machine carefully calibrated, in equilibrium. Architectural criticism has largely d ...
Les ponts mixtes ont été largement utilisés en raison de leurs avantages économiques, constructifs et structuraux. Par ailleurs, le marché de la construction commence à tendre vers l’utilisation d’acier à haute résistance HSS. Ce genre d’acier séduit par s ...
Stiffened extended shear tab connections (either in full-depth or partial-depth configurations) are widely used to connect simply supported beams to the web of supporting girders or columns. Full-scale laboratory tests of stiffened extended shear tab conne ...
