La boîte à outils géotechnique de demain: conception des structures géotechniques selon EN 1997: 202x [PDF]
This paper shows how three new concepts – ‘Design Cases’ (introduced in prEN 1990), the ‘Geotechnical Design Model’ (prEN 1997-1), and the ‘Ground Model’ (prEN 1997-2) – are combined (in prEN 1997-3) to provide a comprehensive and flexible set of tools ...

Experimental Investigation of Corrosion Cracking in Reinforced Concrete Beams Containing Nano Wollastonite [PDF]
Cracking of the concrete cover due to corrosion is defined as the serviceability limit state of reinforced concrete structures. This study evaluated the influence of a mineral admixture i.e.

Structural design of concrete to EC2 and GB50010-2010: a comparison
We mainly compares the differences and similarities in the design using the Chinese code GB50010-2010 (modified in 2015) and Eurocode 2. The paper focuses on the comparison of the two design codes in relation to the ultimate limit state (ULS) and ...
