The Behaviour of Half-Slabs and Hollow-Core Slab in Four-Edge Supported Conditions

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
In this study, qualitative tests were carried out to compare the behaviour of selected slabs exposed to short- and long-term loading. Full-scale models of the half-slab and hollow-core slab with dimensions of 6.30 m × 6.30 m, built of four different ...

Numerical Simulation of Severe Damage to a Historical Masonry Building by Soil Settlement

open access: yes, 2023
Historical masonry structures, which constitute an important part of the historical heritage, exhibit brittle behavior under tensile stresses due to earthquakes or soil movements/settlements. Therefore, they are sensitive to deformation.

Analytical Study on Surface Settlement Troughs Induced by the Sequential Excavation of Adjacent and Parallel Tunnels in Layered Soils

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2022
In this paper, the settlement troughs induced by the excavation of adjacent and parallel tunnels in layered soils were studied. Firstly, a trough width parameter calculation method in layered soils was established based on the propagation model of the ...

Comparison between Predicted and Measured Moisture Content and Climate in 12 Monitored Timber Structures in Switzerland

open access: yes, 2021
Wood is a hygroscopic material that primarily adapts its moisture content to the surrounding relative humidity. The climate in a structure or building depends on the building type and the region the structure is located in.

The Morphology of Building Structures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The structural efficiency and the architectural appearance of building forms is becoming an increasingly important field of engineering, particularly because of the present wide-spread availability of computer facilities. The realisation of complex shapes comes into reach, that would not have been possible with the traditional means.
