Experimental and finite element investigations on hydration heat and early cracks in massive concrete piers

open access: yesCase Studies in Construction Materials, 2023
The concrete hydration heat and different construction methods directly affects the early crack resistance of massive concrete structures and may lead to concrete cracks.

The Pier Luigi Nervi's concrete structure of Palazzetto dello Sport: Modeling and dynamic characterization

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper presents a numerical and experimental study aimed at the modeling and dynamic characterization of the reinforced concrete structure of the Palazzetto dello Sport in Rome, designed and by Pier Luigi Nervi with Annibale Vitellozzi, and built by Nervi & Bartoli contractors in 1956‐57.

Damage Assessment of an RC Pier under Noncontact Blast Loading Based on P-I Curves

open access: yesShock and Vibration, 2018
Since the 9.11 attacks in New York, terrorist attacks, military strikes, and accidental explosions have caused serious damage to various infrastructures around the world. Accidental traffic explosions in bridge engineering have occurred frequently due to

Evaluation of Some Proposed Methods for Protecting Bridge Substructure Using Physical Models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Bridges constructed across streams with erodable beds are normally subjected to serious scouring during the flood at piers and abutment sites. As a result, scour holes will be formed at the bridge substructure.

The clashing of in situ and pre‐cast technologies—Western trends and local traditions in concrete engineering shaping shell construction in 20th‐century Hungary

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract After a blossoming pre‐World War II (WWII) period, the concrete construction industry in then‐socialist Hungary existed in a relative isolation from the Western World during the mid‐20th century. In this paper, we focus on the body of work of one of the then newly established state‐owned design offices, IPARTERV, to show how the isolation ...

Simulation of Scour at Bridge Supports

open access: yesGrađevinar, 2020
Groups of piers are used on bridges to minimise scour around bridge supports. The prediction of scour around piers due to interaction of vortices around bridge piers is more complex compared to scour prediction around a single pier.

Concrete in architecture: Redefining form, space, function, and insights from bibliometric analysis

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Concrete has become a cornerstone in architectural and engineering innovation, as it seamlessly integrates structural performance with artistic expression. Its evolution from ancient opus caementicium to contemporary ultra‐high‐performance concrete illustrates its adaptability to the change in technological, environmental, and design paradigms.
