The Pier Luigi Nervi's concrete structure of Palazzetto dello Sport: Modeling and dynamic characterization

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper presents a numerical and experimental study aimed at the modeling and dynamic characterization of the reinforced concrete structure of the Palazzetto dello Sport in Rome, designed and by Pier Luigi Nervi with Annibale Vitellozzi, and built by Nervi & Bartoli contractors in 1956‐57.

Experimental study on the impact of traffic‐induced vibrations on early‐age concrete

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The COUNT (Concreting under Traffic) research project systematically examined the effects of traffic‐induced vibrations on early‐age, hardening concrete—a critical issue for bridge construction and renovation. Traffic closures are often imposed during such projects to mitigate potential damage from vibrations.

CORR‐DATA: A database of corrosion parameters measured on existing reinforced concrete structures for enhanced structural assessment

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The corrosion of reinforcing bars embedded in concrete strongly compromises structural performance over time. However, its detection and quantification remain challenging due to limited comprehensive knowledge of natural corrosion patterns in existing structures.

Recent Seismic Activity in the Azores Region [PDF]

, 2008
This seismic activity in the Azores Region is characterized by sequences of low-magnitude events, usually with epicenter off-shore. These seismic sequences are sometimes triggered by larger events, felt by the population, that could produce significant ...

Performance of two‐to‐one non‐contact post‐installed lap splices

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Post‐installed lap splices ensure the continuity of steel reinforcement in concrete‐to‐concrete connections by overlapping cast‐in (CI) reinforcing bars (rebars) with post‐installed (PI) rebars. Typically, the design of such splices follows provisions originally intended for CI lap splices, despite the differences in execution and bond ...

On the preservation of reinforced concrete architectural masterpieces: The challenges of the REcube project

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The preservation of reinforced concrete masterpieces from the 20th century poses a complex challenge. These structures often combine architectural, historical, and technological value, which standard engineering codes and conservation practices are not fully equipped to address. The Erasmus+ REcube project responded to this gap by promoting an
