Nonlinear Model of an Additional Concrete Head and its Comparison with Long-Term Measurements
An additional concrete head or drop panels are not common solutions for strengthening flat slabs and have not yet been an adequately studied solution in the field of laboratory research.

Influence of plastic tension chord deformation on the shear capacity of prestressed beam elements
The shear strength of prestressed beam elements is of great interest with regard to the evaluation of existing concrete bridges. Accompanying extensive experimental test series, the adaptation and modification of existing models for the evaluation of the

A nonlinear macroelement formulation for the seismic analysis of masonry buildings [PDF]
A macroelement is presented for the nonlinear dynamic analysis of masonry structures under seismic actions. The macroelement, developed in the framework of the equivalent frame model, has a force-based formulation and accounts for flexural and shear ...

Structural behaviour of masonry arch with no-horizontal springing settlement [PDF]
This paper presents a calculation procedure for assessing the structural integrity of a masonry arch with non-horizontal springing settlement. By applying the Principle of Virtual Work (PVW) to the deformed arch system, the procedure proposed herein ...

Probability based design of punching shear resistance of column to slab connections
The paper analyzes the dependence of punching shear strength reliability index β, calculated according to EN 1992-1-1:2004 (2004) and STR 2.05.05:2005 (2005) in reinforced concrete floor slab-to-column joint on the values of random factors.

A multi-level interface model for damaged masonry [PDF]
The aim of the present work is to propose a new micro-mechanical model in the context of the deductive approach used to derive interface models. This model, based on a previous study introduced previously by A. Rekik and F.

Uncertainty in the numerical modelling of masonry triplet tests under dynamic loading [PDF]
Masonry structures have been broadly used worldwide for centuries. These structures are likely to be subjected to seismic movements, malicious or accidental blast and/or impact loading.

Masonry buildings represent the most widely spread type of structure since the beginning of time until present day. Firstly, stone and wood were used for building, since these materials were easily found in nature, and later elements made out of baked clay, also known as brick. Today, as well as in the past, in the areas of residential, administrative,
