1. Drop-weight impact tests on reinforced concrete beams
University essay from KTH/BetongbyggnadAbstract : This master's thesis aimed to investigate the behaviour of reinforced concrete beams under dynamic loading conditions, specifically focusing on understanding shear failure. The study was conducted with KTH Royal Institute of Technology, the Swedish Fortifications Agency, and Tyréns. READ MORE

2. The Effect of Chloride-Induced Corrosion Patterns on the Crack Width of Reinforced Concrete
University essay from KTH/BetongbyggnadAbstract : This master's thesis investigates cracking in a parking garage, with a particular focus on the influence of corrosion. Concrete structures commonly experience cracking, and corrosion has emerged as one of the primary contributing factors. These cracks, varying in size and shape, can be considered structural discontinuities. READ MORE

3. 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 naturresurserAbstract : 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

4. Use of Digital Image Correlation for monitoring of concrete buttress dam failure model tests
University essay from KTH/BetongbyggnadAbstract : The monitoring of dam structures is of great importance for the safety of the dam.A dam failure can cause disastrous consequences for people and infrastructure downstream.Dams are monitored by periodic inspections and monitoring systems. READ MORE

5. Shear Failure of Steel Fiber and Bar Reinforced Concrete Beams Without Stirrups : Predictions based on Nonlinear Finite Element Analyses
University essay from KTH/BetongbyggnadAbstract : Shear failure in concrete beams are often brittle in nature and potentially dangerous without adequatereinforcing measures. In design of concrete, it is commonly recommended to install transversalreinforcement along the shear span to induce a more ductile structural response, improving the shearcapacity all together and providing sufficient warning prior to collapse.
