Selected Aspects Of Designing Deep Excavations

Rafal Filip Obrzud

This paper analyzes two approaches to serviceability limit state (SLS) verification for the deep excavation boundary value problem. The verification is carried out by means of the finite element (FE) method with the aid of the commercial program ZSoil v201 ...

A new laboratory methodology for optimization of mixture design of asphalt concrete containing reclaimed asphalt pavement material

André-Gilles Dumont, Sara Bressi, Manfred Partl

The reduction of virgin bitumen added to asphalt mixtures containing Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement (RAP) is based on the typical assumption that all the aged binder function in the same way as the virgin binder. However, recent studies conducted by the author ...

Springer Verlag2016

By reviewing some of the reinforced-concrete structures built in the early 20th century, this paper questions the geometrical aspects surrounding their design. It is well established that in the case of Robert Maillart’s designs, he relied on the logic of ...

Punching strength of actual two-way slabs

Aurelio Muttoni, Miguel Fernández Ruiz, Jürgen Einpaul

Many building codes rely on empirical formulations with respect to the punching shear design provisions. Such empirical equations are typically calibrated on the basis of laboratory tests performed on simplified geometries (usually isolated specimens) with ...

Numerical study of the heating-cooling effects on the geotechnical behaviour of energy piles.

Lyesse Laloui, Fabrice Dupray, Alice Di Donna

Energy geostructures represent a renewable and clean source of energy which can be used for heating and cooling of buildings and de-icing of infrastructures. This technology couples the structural role of geostructures with the energy supply, using the pri ...

Origami - Folded Plate Structures

Hans Ulrich Buri

This research investigates new methods of designing folded plate structures that can be built with cross-laminated timber panels. Folded plate structures are attractive to both architects and engineers for their structural, spatial, and plastic qualities. ...

Comprehensive modeling of chloride ion and water ingress into concrete considering thermal and carbonation state for real climate

Eugen Brühwiler, David Conciatori, Francine Laferrière

This article presents a comprehensive modeling of temperature, carbonation, water and chloride ions transport in cover concrete using the transport model "TransChlor". The TransChlor transport model employs weather data and chloride ion concentrations pres ...

Warm asphalt bituminous mixtures with regards to energy, emissions and performance

Nicolas Bueche

With the current concerns about sustainable development and greenhouse gas emissions in various fields, the road domain has also to contribute. Indeed, asphalt mixture production is a very important energy consuming phase in order to heat the aggregates an ...

2009

Hybrid slab systems combining fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites with concrete are promising load-bearing structures, and an increasing number of applications has demonstrated their high potential in terms of structural performance and durability. H ...

New Connection System for Confined Concrete Columns and Beams. II: Theoretical Modeling

Yu Bai

The concept of confined concrete has been widely accepted throughout the structural engineering field, such as the spiral, steel tube, or carbon fiber composite shell confined concrete, etc. In the present study, this concept has not only been used in the ...
