Damage Identification Method of Tied‐Arch Bridges Based on the Equivalent Thrust‐Influenced Line
Early tied‐arch bridges cannot satisfy the current traffic load demand due to their load grades and maintenance levels. Also, these tied‐arch bridges have accumulated structural damage with increasingly prominent safety risks. In order to accurately evaluate the characteristics of tied‐arch bridges’ structural‐influenced lines and identify damage of ...

A geometrical non-linear model for cable systems analysis [PDF]
Cable structures are commonly studied with simplified analytical equations. The evaluation of the accuracy of these equations, in terms of equilibrium geometry configuration and stress distribution was performed for standard cables examples.

3D Laser Scanning‐Based Tension Assessment for Bridge Cables Considering Point Cloud Density
To address the limitations in accuracy, reliability, and efficiency of traditional cable tension measurement methods, this paper proposes a cable tension assessment method based on 3D laser scanning technology that considers point cloud density. This study first employed a point cloud plane projection algorithm to reduce a 3D point cloud model to a 2D ...

Disproportionate collapse analysis of mid-rise cross-laminated timber buildings [PDF]
This paper investigates the structural behaviour of a twelve-storey Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT) building subjected to sudden removal of internal and external ground floor loadbearing walls, and computes the probability of disproportionate collapse ...

Comparison of bond stresses of deformed steel bars embedded in two different concrete mixes [PDF]
Catenary action in a precast concrete building structural system is one of the ways to avoid progressive collapse. The key for catenary action to work successfully depends on the strength performance of longitudinal ties, which closely depends on the ...
