Effect of an acidic environment on a glass fibre reinforced polymer grid [PDF]
The article deals with the effect of an acidic environment on the mechanical properties of a Glass Fibre Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) grid. GFRP composites are prone to the absorption of surrounding media which are either of a liquid or gaseous state, and ...

Original masonry versus advanced masonry
Abstract The paper deals with a comparative analysis between original and advanced masonry. Both are of high practical interest in buildings and monuments. Particularly, in seismic areas, where they are submitted to the strong actions of earthquakes, the Latin principle Primum non-nocere should be applied.

On the effects of modified lane configuration due to construction works on bridge loading
Construction works are frequently recurring events within highway networks, temporarily altering the characteristics of the traffic flow and hence of the bridge loading process. Consequently, highway bridge superstructures usually carrying unidirectional
