Dowel Type Joints in Cement-splinter Boards
Abstract The aim of this paper is in determination of fasteners maximal bearing capacity in 4-nails joints of cement-splinter boards of selected thicknesses and middle element made of solid wood on the base of destructive laboratory testing according to valid standards. Aim of this article is also in description of typical deformation of these joints.

ABSTRACT This study develops a high‐resolution regional seismic loss assessment framework for reinforced concrete (RC) bridges, focusing on direct losses due to bridge repair and replacement. Indirect losses tied to traffic downtime, business disruption, delayed recovery, etc., can also be attributed to bridge damage but are considered outside the ...

DOWEL ACTION BETWEEN TWO CONCRETES
This paper reports eight tests in which in-plane shear forces are applied across the joint between two different concretes forming a composite action. Shear can be transmitted across the joint either by interlocking of the aggregate particles protruding

Experimental Evaluation of Prototype Seismic Retrofits for Precast Concrete Hollow‐Core Floors
Existing hollow‐core floors are vulnerable to nonductile failure and potential collapse under earthquake loading. This study presents the development and experimental evaluation of novel comprehensive seismic retrofits for hollow‐core floors. These retrofits include a strongback‐type retrofit that provides an alternative gravity load path through steel

Strip loading in reinforced concrete: Mechanical modeling and experimental validation
Abstract Strip loading of reinforced concrete is a common problem in engineering practice. The concrete compressive strength at the load introduction can be several times higher than the uniaxial concrete compressive strength, which can be attributed to geometrical and passive confining stresses caused by load dispersion and reinforcement, respectively.

Influence of the Depth of Friction-welded Dowels on the Strength of Rotary Welded Joints
One of the important factors in rotary welding is the depth of welding of the dowel as well as the direction of welding of the dowel. In the studied interval (welding depth of 15 to 30 mm), the pull-out force increased when welding the dowel parallel to ...
