Chattez avec Graph Search
Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.
AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
“Structural UHPFRC” stands for Ultra-High Performance Fiber Reinforced Cementitious Composite material that is complemented by reinforcing and prestressing steel to enhance the resistance and durability of structural elements. Properties of impermeable, te ...
In developed countries, structural assessment of existing bridges should not be performed using the same conservative models that are used at the design stage. Field measurements of real behavior provide additional information for the inference of previous ...
Aging bridges of the German federal road network often cannot be rehabilitated or replaced timely due to insufficient funding and complex regulations of building laws. Consequently, novel building materials and alternative solutions get the opportunity to ...
Depuis la fin du XXe siècle, la proportion de construction en bois dans le secteur du bâtiment n’a cessé d’augmenter en Suisse. Ceci est principalement dû à une prise de conscience des capacités de ce matériau. La ressource forestière helvète représente un ...
This paper presents the design and construction of a 36m2 gridshell, the rigidity of which is achieved through the bending of an initially flat grid of 210 reclaimed skis. The generated waste for its production is near zero as it is mostly built from disca ...
Due to conservative design models and safe construction practices, civil-infrastructure elements, such as bridges, usually have unknown amounts of reserve capacity that exceed code requirements. The quantification of this reserve capacity may lead to bette ...
This paper describes the construction process of a scenographic structure five meters high spiral. It consists of following parts: CAD modeling workflow, prototyping and FEM structural calculation, assembly and on-site loading test. The structure was compo ...
This paper provides the findings of a research project aiming to understand the current level of industrial awareness, challenges and lessons learned during the application of the BIM (Building Information Modelling) across the construction value chain. A ...
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 ...
On November 11, 2017, the world's first railway bridge built in reinforced UHPFRC on a main railway line lane was put in service. The building project of the Swiss Federal Railways was realized within a replacement project of a double‐lane railway bridge o ...
