Buildings, 2023 This paper introduces a method to create a moment-resisting edge connection between two cross-laminated timber (CLT) panels. With this connection, two-way spanning cross-laminated timber slabs can be realised, where the span exceeds the manufacturing and

Rotation capacity of continuous reinforced concrete slab strips revisited
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract Rotation capacity is a key characteristic of statically indeterminate reinforced concrete structures, as it (i) enables bending moment redistributions, whether intentionally introduced through optimized reinforcement layouts or arising from unforeseen self‐equilibrated stress states, and (ii) promotes large rotations at failure load, thereby ...

Splice Strengths of Noncontact Lap Splices Using Strut-and-Tie Model [PDF]
Journal of the Korea Concrete Institute, 2007 Strut-and-tie models for noncontact lap splices are presented and parameters affecting the effective lap length and the splice strength are discussed in this paper. The effective lap length along which bond stress is developed is shorter than the whole lap length.

The challenges of GFRP RC beam design for limit states
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract Glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars are used ever more frequently in concrete construction due to their non‐corrosive and anti‐magnetic properties. Their research over the past decades focused on fundamental questions, such as the design aspects of beams under flexural loads.

Recent Advances in Photocatalyst‐Driven Protein Labeling and Proximity Mapping
The Chemical Record, EarlyView.Photocatalyst‐driven protein labeling and proximity mapping have rapidly advanced as powerful strategies for spatiotemporal control in complex biological environments. This review integrates recent developments across single‐electron transfer and energy transfer‐based mechanisms and highlights how catalyst design, reactive intermediates, and diffusion ...

Flexural Behavior of RC Beams with an Abrupt Change in Depth: Experimental Work
Buildings, 2022 The most crucial components in the case of roofs with two levels or a variable floor height are variable depth beams. In order to investigate the flexural behavior of reinforced concrete (RC) beams with varying depths under static loads, experimental ...

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.Why do some women choose to submit to their husbands in marriage? In anthropology, the paradox of ‘chosen submission’ has famously been explored by Saba Mahmood. Her work amongst Egyptian women donning the veil in the Islamic da'wa movement spotlights the notion of ‘piety’ to explore how devotion to God can act as a powerful motivator of human ...

Advances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2019 This paper discusses the behavior of grouted noncontact lap splices under monotonic tension load. Deformed bars lapped through a grout-filled corrugated duct, and a spiral reinforcement was preembedded in the connection to improve tensile strength of the

Gender &History, EarlyView.ABSTRACT An analysis of the dual biographies, economic and domestic, of Manuela Xiqués, an enslaver from nineteenth‐century Cuba and Spain, deepens our understanding of the role of European and Creole women in the nineteenth‐century Atlantic. This essay foregrounds the role of literature, namely family biography, as a locus of the processes of ...

History, EarlyView.Abstract This article analyses the racialized and gendered constraints faced by African sportswomen in international sporting competitions, from the interwar period to the 1980s, with a focus on the policing and expectations framing young international athletes’ acceptable behaviour.
