Shear tests on demountable precast column connections [PDF]
AbstractLately, there has been increasing demand for structural solutions and building technologies with minimalized CO2 footprint. One way to approach the carbon neutrality is through reuse of structural components. In order to enable economic reuse of precast concrete elements, their connections must be designed to allow an effortless dismount. While

HIGH TEMPERATURE PUSH‐OUT TESTS ON DEMOUNTABLE SHEAR CONNECTORS OF STEEL‐CONCRETE COMPOSITE BEAMS
Abstract There is no denying that there is a growing need for reusable systems in the construction industry. This is not only a by‐product of the increasing demand of materials, but also a necessity to reduce greenhouse gas emissions associated to the manufacturing process of construction components. Reusable systems aim to solidify the transition from

Demountable shear connectors – constructional details and push‐out tests
Abstract The sustainable composite structures are built by demountable elements in order to reuse them which can fit to the circular economy. The current research and development project – in the cooperation of Budapest University of Technology and Economics and KÉSZ Group, bim.GROUP Ltd, Hungary – is aiming to design a new kind of demountable steel ...
