Shortcomings exist with respect to accounting for the influence of non-structural components, e.g. gypsum panels installed on the ceilings (floors and roof diaphragms) and walls, on the response of cold-formed steel (CFS) framed structures subjected to sei ...
This paper provides parametric estimates of embodied carbon reductions when structural components are reused in a typical office building. First, a lower bound of structural material quantities is estimated for a typical steel frame structure in a low-rise ...
Employing geostructures as structural supports and geomaterials as reservoirs for the extraction and storage of heat represent effective means to meet human activity needs since ancient times. This doctoral thesis focuses on the thermo-mechanical behaviour ...
Introduction The construction industry has an extensive impact on the global environment and will be facing three big challenges in the next decades: reducing its resource consumption, decreasing its energy use, and limiting its waste production. This is e ...
Splicing of longitudinal reinforcement in the plastic hinge region of reinforced concrete (RC) members was common practice in buildings and bridges before the introduction of capacity design principles. Experimental and field observations showed that the p ...
In this paper, although there are some useful monitoring methods for short and medium span(10-20m) bridges based on the qualitative or quantitative information, mainly two advanced structural health monitoring systems are described to review and analyses t ...
Timber plate structures with integral mechanical attachments have been successfully built in the last decades. Previous research has highlighted the influence of these connections in the global behavior of the structures. Double-layered plate shells are on ...
Several sources of uncertainty affect the assessment of existing buildings, including uncertainties associated with the material properties and the displacement capacity of the elements. In engineering practice, Monte Carlo simulations of the nonlinear sei ...

This work studies the effect on Embodied Energy (EE) of concrete when Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) is partially substituted with natural Pozzolanic Volcanic Ash (VA) at the material and the building scale. The work aims to demonstrate potential improveme ...
