The Steel Slit Panel Frame (SSPF) system is a new Seismic Force-Resisting System (SFRS) intended for areas of high seismicity. The main components in an SSPF are: steel beams and columns, and Steel Slit Panels (SSPs). SSPs are steel plates with rows of ver ...
The purpose of this thesis is to develop variational integrators synchronous or asynchronous, which can be used as tools to study complex structures composed of plates and beams subjected to large deformations and stress. We consider the geometrically exac ...
An investigation of a new type of connection between precast concrete decks and steel girders, for composite steel-concrete bridges, is being performed by the Steel Structures Laboratory, ICOM, of Ecole Polytechinque Federal de Lausanne, EPFL. The connecti ...
In a cellular FRP deck-on-beam bridge, the deck's load response is influenced by the cellular frame's local indeterminacy and by the global indeterminacy due to multiple beams at each support. Thus, the stiffness distributions for both levels of indetermin ...
This paper investigates the effects of glass type (annealed, heat-strengthened and fully tempered), reinforcement percentage (hollow section and full section) and beam size (1.5 and 3.2 m) on the structural response of SG-laminated reinforced glass beams. ...
Most analytical approaches and available test data for punching shear in flat slabs assume axis-symmetrical conditions, which seems realistic for representing slabs supported on columns equally spaced in both orthogonal directions. However, in practice, th ...
The addition of a thin overlay of Ultra-High Performance Fibre Reinforced Concrete (UHPFRC) to Reinforced Concrete (RC) members is an emerging technique to strengthen and protect existing structures and to design durable new structures. Combining UHPFRC wi ...
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 ...
This paper describes 14 tests on simply supported and continuous reinforced concrete beams which were designed to investigate the influences of aggregate type, loading arrangement and shear reinforcement ratio on shear strength. The beams were rectangular ...
Steel-concrete composite bridges with twin-I steel girders and prefabricated slabs constitute an economical and competitive solution for small and medium bridge spans. In recent years they have started to gain their share in the construction market. Howeve ...
