Analysis of stray current induced by cathodic protection on steel-framed masonry structures [PDF]

, 2011
Cathodic protection (CP) has been successfully employed to protect steel-framed masonry buildings from corrosion related damage. When a CP system is installed to protect the structural members, other metallic items which are within the fabric of the ...

Multi‐Method Geophysical Surveys Between and Around the Kerlescan and the Manio Megalithic Alignments in Carnac (Morbihan, France)

Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Carnac alignments in Morbihan (France) are among the most famous Neolithic sites of the world. Paradoxically, they have benefited little from a thorough renewal of archaeological data over the past century. There are many reasons for this, but it is mainly because the site has been regarded more as a monument to visit and protect than as ...

The Layout and Size of an Early Pre‐Pottery Neolithic B Small Settlement Revealed by Geophysical Prospection at Harbetsuvan Tepesi in Southeastern Anatolia

Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In Upper Mesopotamia, the transition from the Pre‐Pottery Neolithic A (PPNA) to Pre‐Pottery Neolithic B (PPNB) period, ca. 10 800–10 600 cal. BP, is marked by a series of changes in chipped stone industries, architectural forms, symbolic objects, regional distribution of settlements and long‐distance exchange networks among others.

Numerical modelling of in-plane behaviour of adobe walls [PDF]

, 2010
Some tests for material characterization of adobe blocks and adobe masonry have been carried out in universities and laboratories around the world. However, the number of tests is quite limited in comparison with those carried out with other structural ...

Digital documentation of railway tunnel inspection in Austria

Civil Engineering Design, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 3-8, March 2025.
Abstract Infrastructure, especially railway tunnels, require continuous inspection to ensure their safety. Furthermore, the detection of damages at an early stage can improve their service life. These tasks represent a major challenge for those involved and the tunnel down time is a disruption in operation.

Masonry wall panels retrofitted with thermal-insulating GFRP-reinforced jacketing [PDF]

, 2015
Today there is a need to provide thermally efficient walls, while at the same time to increase the mechanical properties of old unreinforced masonry walls that will not require large amounts of energy in the retrofitting or deconstruction processes.

Fracture evolution of a thick soft protection layer and the water inrush mechanism in overburden under longwall mining

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Through shear–tensile creep tests and viscoelastic modeling, the fracture evolution of thick soft protective layers is clarified. Results show thickness‐dependent rheological failure modes that govern four types of roof water inrush, providing a mechanism‐based framework for hazard prediction and control. Abstract In the Jurassic coal‐bearing strata of

Application of high performance concrete for reconstruction

Acta Polytechnica CTU Proceedings, 2022
One of the sustainability aspects of the construction is a sufficient durability. In objectively justified cases, the durability is enhanced by reconstruction. To ensure economic design of the reconstruction, non-liner approaches are often applied.

Upcycling Printed Circuit Board E-Waste to High-Strength, Multifunctional, and Reprocessable Sulfur Composites via Thiocracking. [PDF]

ChemSusChem
Thiocracking, the one‐pot reaction of elemental sulfur with printed circuit board waste, converts unrecyclable laminates into high‐sulfur composites. The most practical material prepared herein combines cement‐like strength with 100% strength retention after 10 melt–recast cycles, low thermal conductivity (0.37 W m−1 K−1), and antimicrobial efficacy ...

Masonry Components

, 2014
Masonry is a non-homogeneous material, composed of units and mortar, which can be of different types, with distinct mechanical properties. The design of both masonry units and mortar is based on the role of the walls in the building. Load-bearing walls relate to structural elements that bear mainly vertical loads, but can serve also to resist to ...
