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.
Ultra high performance concretes (UHPFRC) are characterized by a dense matrix and a high fibre content. These materials exhibit exceptional mechanical and durability properties making them an ideal material for rehabilitating existing structures. The prima ...
A multifunctional hybrid glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP)/steel joint has been developed for the transfer of compression and shear forces in thermal insulation sections of concrete slab structures used in building construction. The new pultruded cellu ...
Reinforced concrete flat slabs are extensively used in buildings and parking garages. At the ultimate limit state, their design is usually governed by punching shear. In the case where no punching shear reinforcement is provided, failure develops in a brit ...

An existing hybrid-GFRP/steel joint for load transfer and thermal insulation in concrete slab structures was developed into an all-GFRP joint. The new joint consists of a pultruded GFRP tensile/shear element anchored through adhesively bonded ribs in the c ...
Reinforced concrete bridge deck slabs without shear reinforcement can be subjected to concentrated or distributed loads of important magnitude. Under these loads their structural response is not always ductile. In particular under concentrated loads their ...
This paper presents the theoretical basis and the main results of an analytical model that describes the pre– and post–yield response of bond in reinforced concrete, as well as its influence on the behavior of structural members. The model is based on a nu ...
The behavior of seven one-half scale masonry specimens before and after retrofitting using fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) is investigated. Four walls were built using one-half scale hollow clay masonry units and weak mortar to simulate walls built in centr ...
Researchers at the faculty of Architecture at Delft University of Technology have developed an unconventional construction method for large span structural glass beams based on two concepts: 1) glass beams are reinforced with a small stainless steel sectio ...
This thesis addresses the seismic evaluation of existing buildings. In particular, it focuses on the seismic behavior of lightly reinforced shear walls that are not designed to withstand earthquake actions. A shear strength envelope for the assessment of d ...
The presence of post-tensioning tendons in webs decreases the load-carrying capacity of the compression struts that are necessary to transfer shear forces. This effect has been known for a long time, but was initially not included in design codes. In parti ...
