Developing people capabilities for the promotion of sustainability in facility management practices [PDF]
, 2015 Sustainability is becoming an integral part of the life-cycle development of built facilities. It is increasingly highlighted during the post construction phase, as facility management personnel can have major influence to the sustainability agenda

The effect of masonry infill walls on the reinforced concrete frames behavior under lateral load [PDF]
, 2020 The reinforced concrete structures with masonry infill walls are widely used to construct buildings in Algeria, as in many parts of the world. According to earthquake analysis, this type of construction can undergo serious damage under seismic load.

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.This review traces the evolution of functional biliary stents, outlining the paradigm shift from “active intervention” strategies that target stent failure to next‐generation “enabling platforms.” These platforms leverage biodegradable materials, 3D/4D printing, and smart sensors to achieve personalized, regenerative, and theranostic solutions ...

Revista IBRACON de Estruturas e Materiais, 2019 The search for representative resistant systems for a concrete structure requires deep knowledge about its mechanical behavior. Strut-and-tie models are classic analysis procedures to the design of reinforced concrete regions where there are stress ...

Recyclability of Polystyrene Bead Foams: Degradation Behavior over 10 Extrusion Cycles
Polymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.This study investigates the multi‐cycle recycling of expanded polystyrene bead foam blended with virgin material. Material degradation is monitored by MFI, GPC, and mechanical testing. The results demonstrate that long‐term recyclability is feasible without progressive property loss, and that secondary high‐shear steps such as extrusion and pelletizing

Strip loading in reinforced concrete: Mechanical modeling and experimental validation
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract Strip loading of reinforced concrete is a common problem in engineering practice. The concrete compressive strength at the load introduction can be several times higher than the uniaxial concrete compressive strength, which can be attributed to geometrical and passive confining stresses caused by load dispersion and reinforcement, respectively.

Punching shear behavior of thick reinforced concrete slabs according to Strut-and-Tie model
Budownictwo i Architektura, 2014 The punching shear behavior of thick reinforced concrete slabs was analyzed in this paper by using strut-and-tie model (S-T). Calculating procedures were compared to our own experimental test results.

Strut-and-tie models for deteriorated reinforced concrete half-joints [PDF]
, 2018 A reinforced concrete half-joint bridge consists of suspended span dapped-end beams or a full-width deck supported on the nibs of abutments or adjacent beams.

Impact of half‐joint failures on RC girder bridges: A robustness quantification study
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract The robustness of bridge structures is critical to ensuring safety and service continuity, particularly in aging infrastructure exposed to degradation and unexpected loads. Reinforced concrete (RC) half‐joint bridges—widely built in Italy between the 1950s and 1970s—exhibit specific vulnerabilities due to inspection challenges, durability ...
