  1. 1. Harmonised traffic load model between Eurocode 1 - part 2 (EN 1991-2) and TRV specifications : A pilot study on reinforced concrete portal frame bridges

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : Mubashar Amir Ablahad; Nuredin Rasslan; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The advancement of society has led to an increase in demand for infrastructure, particularly bridges, which are designed in accordance with different design codes. In Sweden, bridge design adheres to the Eurocode and national code (TRV specifications), with the most adverse scenario of the two codes determining the basis for bridge design. READ MORE

  2. 2. Novel steel hinge connection for pedestrian timber bridges : Novel steel hinge connection for pedestrian timber bridges

    University essay from KTH/Byggnadsmaterial

    Author : Charlotte Jaeger; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This study focuses on exploring a novel timber-to-timber joint using a steel hinge connection (in this work also referred to as door-hinge joint) for pedestrian timber bridges. To conduct the cross-section design of the structural bridge members, a numerical model was developed to determine the internal forces. READ MORE

  3. 3. Analysis of combined response of railway bridge and track : A parametric finite element model of the bridge across Bryngeån

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : Moa Nolinder; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : When designing a railway bridge it is common to consider and designthe bridge structure and the track structure separately. However, theyare connected and that interaction generates a combined response and aforce transfer between them. READ MORE

  4. 4. Improved Bridge Load Capacity via Dynamic Train-Track-Bridge Interaction : Assessing the dynamic amplification factor caused by measured track irregularities for rail freight transport

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : Muhannad Asaad; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The carbon impact of transportation is large and requires sustainable solutions. With expected population growth, rail transportation plays a vital role in facilitating a greener Europe. The expansion of the rail infrastructure is therefore of essential importance for future challenges. READ MORE

  5. 5. Optimization of Material Cost and Carbon Footprint of Flat Reinforced Concrete Slabs with Simple Steel Piles : Designed according to Eurocode and Swedish appendix EKS

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Author : Oskar Lönn; [2023]
    Keywords : Optimization; RC slab; Material cost; API;

    Abstract : When designing reinforced concrete (RC) slabs with steel piles various variables must be considered, from the internal force to the distance of piles. An endless number of designs are possible, leaving space for optimizing designs. READ MORE
