Strength evaluation of concrete elements with non-metallic reinforcement under short-term dynamic compression [PDF]
The article presents a method for calculating the strength of concrete elements with non-metallic fiber, rod and external reinforcement. The algorithm and the calculation program are shown, which are based on the use of a nonlinear deformation model of ...

Increasing the thermal resistance of masonry wall systems is one of the effective ways to reduce energy consumption in the operation of masonry buildings. This increase is also demanded by newer, more stringent energy codes.

Carbon short-fiber-reinforced concrete (CSFRC) is a novel material obtained by adding and mixing carbon fibers into fresh concrete. In this way, the concrete behavior is changed, and concrete no longer undergoes brittle failure under tension ...

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

Out-of-plane dynamic response of a tuff masonry wall. Shaking table testing and numerical simulation [PDF]
The out-of-plane dynamic response of a masonry element is investigated, both experimentally and numerically. The results of shaking table tests on a tuff masonry wall, subjected to harmonic acceleration histories, are presented.

Analysis of Deflections of Bridge Girders Strengthened by Carbon Fibre Reinforcement
The paper deals with experimental and theoretical investigations in reinforced concrete structures strengthened with carbon fibre sheets. Four stages in the behaviour of concrete structures strengthened with the carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) are

Flexural capacity and stiffness of monolithic biaxial hollow slabs
The article presents a research on flexural behaviour of hollow monolithic reinforced concrete slabs. It focuses on the results of experimental investigation into full-size hollow reinforced concrete slabs and analyses their flexural capacity and ...

When designing a new structure or assessing an existing one, the risk of fire and its effect on the structure must be considered. Structures are usually assessed for fire resistance at the design stage – i.e. before the possible exposure to fire.

unreinforced masonry buildings [PDF]
A recent earthquake of M=4.9 occurred on 29 October 2007 in C, ameli, Denizli, which is located in a seismically active region at southwest Anatolia, Turkey. It has caused extensive damages at unreinforced masonry buildings like many other cases observed
