This paper outlines concepts using ultrahigh-performance fiber-reinforced composite (UHPFRC) to address structural deficiencies in modern fixed railway track systems of concrete, focusing on enhancing structural safety, durability, and fatigue resistance. ...
Due to their relatively high tensile strength and dense matrix, UHPFRCs have proven to be a highly effective building material for both strengthening existing reinforced concrete structures and constructing new ones. In both cases, the use of fasteners is ...
The development of Ultra-High Performance Fibre-Reinforced Cementitious Composite (UHPFRC) has enabled the design of lightweight constructions. Although the greenhouse gas emissions of UHPFRC per volume are higher than that of conventional concr ...
This two-part article reports on the renewal and adaptation of the fixed railway track in the heavily frequented underground train station at Zurich Airport. The fixed track built in 1980 had reached the service duration predicted by the system provider an ...
Dieser Aufsatz in zwei Teilen berichtet über die Instandsetzung und Anpassung der festen Fahrbahn im stark frequentierten unterirdischen Bahnhof Zürich Flughafen. Die 1980 eingebaute feste Fahrbahn hatte die vom Systemanbieter vorausgesagte Nutzungsdauer e ...
