A Framework for Computer-Aided Conceptual Design of Building Structures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
This paper describes a framework for computer-aided conceptual design of building structures that results from building architectural considerations. The central task that is carried out during conceptual design is the synthesis of the structural system.

Evaluating mechanical efficiency of glass fibres in a polymer profile

open access: yesPolymer Testing, 2021
This study focuses on the mechanical performance of pultruded glass fibre-reinforced polymer (GFRP) profiles developed for structural applications. Fibre content determines the tensile resistance of such components, and technical specifications describe ...

Protection of constructions of the buildings against accidental actions

open access: yesBudownictwo i Architektura, 2013
In accordance with the requirements of construction standards, building structures should be designed taking into account their protection against accidental actions, such as gas explosions or car accidents. The current standards are largely inconclusive

Parametric Investigation of Self-Centering Prestressed Concrete Frame Structures with Variable Friction Dampers

open access: yes, 2023
To enhance the structural stiffness and energy-dissipating capacity after the decompression of beam-to-column connections for self-centering prestressed concrete (SCPC) frames, this study presents the seismic performance of a new type of SCPC frame with ...

Application of physical theory of cavity in the construction of double skin facades

open access: yesCurved and Layered Structures, 2021
The article deals with the issue of double skin transparent facades as a new technological-operational system of transparent exterior walls. Especially of high-rise buildings, which with its operating modes ingeniously uses a renewable source of solar ...

Simplified analytical method for the robustness assessment of precast reinforced concrete structural systems

open access: yesBudownictwo i Architektura, 2021
The article presents the simplified implementation of alternative load path method based on the energy balance approach. This method should be used to check the global resistance of a damaged structural system after the occurrence of an accidental event.

Using weigh-in-motion data to determine bridge dynamic amplification factor

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2015
The dynamic component of bridge traffic loading is commonly taken into account with a Dynamic Amplification Factor (DAF) – the ratio between the maximum dynamic and static load effects on a bridge.

The structure of tradeoffs in model building [PDF]

open access: yesSynthese, 2008
Despite their best efforts, scientists may be unable to construct models that simultaneously exemplify every theoretical virtue. One explanation for this is the existence of tradeoffs: relationships of attenuation that constrain the extent to which models can have such desirable qualities.
