Ductility of different types of shear connectors – experimental and numerical analysis
(Czech Technical University in Prague, 2019)
Different types of shear connectors, which are used for achievement of steel-concrete
composite action, have been developed during decades. Their suitability for various range
of structures and loadings is determined by ...
Past, present and future of fly ash in concrete
(Macedonian Association of Structural Engineers, 2019)
The use of fly ash in concrete lasts for almost a century. The first idea of using concrete as a place to
deposit fly ash and merely reduce the amount of waste came a long way to a today’s use of fly ash as a
basic ...
Quality control plan for road bridges – Overview of COST Action TU1406 WG3 final report
(IABSE Symposium, Guimaraes 2019: Towards a Resilient Built Environment Risk and Asset Management - Report, 2019, 2019)
The main objective of the COST Action TU1406 is to develop a guideline for the establishment of Quality Control plans for roadway bridges. The guideline is based on conclusions of Working groups 1 and 2 of the Action and ...
Effects of natural zeolite addition to lime based render layers for restoration of historical buildings
(RILEM Publications S.A.R.L., 2019)
Renders, as the most exposed elements of historical buildings, have limited durability therefore their periodical inspection and replacements are necessary. Various studies have been made with a purpose to develop renders ...
Numerical study of vibrations induced by horizontal-axis wind turbine on a steel building
(Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers - Structures and Buildings, 2019)
One of the most important acceptance issues regarding the implementation of small-scale wind turbines in urban environments is related to human comfort. Turbine-induced vibrations can have a large influence on small-scale ...
Shear resistance of headed shear studs welded on welded plates in composite floors
(Elsevier Ltd., 2019)
The present paper deals with composite steel-concrete floor with headed shear studs welded onto a flat steel plate. In bridges applications, which are the focus of the paper, very thick steel plates are often combined with ...
Determination of pH in Powdered Concrete Samples or in Suspension
(Basel : MDPI, 2019)
Concrete is a material that is widely used by mankind. Although different deterioration mechanisms can lead to degradation of the concrete itself, reinforcement corrosion is the biggest durability issue for reinforced ...
Effect of Different Types of Fly Ash on Properties of Asphalt Mixtures
(Hindawi, 2019)
In order to preserve natural resources, the use of waste and alternative materials in the construction and maintenance of roads is increasingly investigated. This paper presents the results of testing wearing course asphalt ...
Creep of recycled aggregate concrete: Experimental database and creep prediction model according to the fib Model Code 2010
(Elsevier Ltd, 2019)
Recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) is a promising solution to addressing the sustainability issues raised by concrete production. However, its long-term properties are not fully characterised, especially creep behaviour, ...
Experimental Investigation of Cracked End-notched Glulam Beams Repaired with GFRP bars
(Slovak Forest Products Research Institute, 2019)
In this paper, an experimental research on bending behaviour of end-notched glulam beams and their bending behaviour after repairing with glass fibre reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars is presented. Altogether five glulam beams ...
