Analysis of structural masonry buildings taking into account the construction sequence loads and soil-structure interaction

open access: yesRevista IBRACON de Estruturas e Materiais, 2021
: The present study assesses conventionally used design standards, analyzing the effects caused by the construction loads, that is, a gradual increase in load and stiffness during construction, and soil-structure interaction (SSI), with soil represented ...

An Investigation on the Effect of Watertightness Criteria on the Structural Assessment of Prestressed Concrete Substructures of Floating Wind Turbines

open access: yesEnergies, 2023
The effect of watertightness criteria on structural assessment was investigated in this study through the design of a semi-submersible floater for a 10 MW wind turbine. A structural assessment was carried out for the ultimate, fatigue, and serviceability

Enhanced performance of longitudinally post-tensioned long-span LVL beams [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The scope of this paper is to highlight the advantages of using longitudinally post-tensioning for long-span timber beams compared to traditional glulam or LVL solutions. The analysis is limited to serviceability limit states for gravity loads.

Response of beam-to-column web cleated joints for FRP pultruded members [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Physical testing is used to characterize the structural properties of beam-to-column joints, comprising pultruded fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) H-shapes of depth 203 mm, connected by 128 mm-long web cleats and two M16 bolts per leg. Testing is performed

Performance of Epoxy-Injection and Microorganism-Based Crack-Healing Techniques on Cracked Flexural Members

open access: yesBuildings, 2023
Reinforced concrete (RC) members are designed to crack and the crack width usually remains within the service limit; however, these micro-cracks make structures susceptible to the infiltration of aggressive substances, especially near the coastline. Thus,
