  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

  3. 2. Dynamic Analysis of Portal Frame Bridges for High-Speed Trains : A Parametric Study

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : Antonio Dib; Ramayana Salgado; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : A high-speed railway network is important for Sweden’s development. However, anincreasing train speed brings new challenges in bridge design due to higher bridgeaccelerations. READ MORE

  4. 3. Comparison of load-bearing system in steel

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggteknik (BY)

    Author : Simon Svensson; [2022]
    Keywords : portal frame; truss pillar-system; Steel industrial buildings;

    Abstract : In single storey industrial buildings, the most common material used for the load-bearingsystem is steel. The load bearing system can be designed in different ways. The two mostcommon load-bearing systems of steel industrial buildings are portal frame and thetruss/pillar-system. READ MORE

  5. 4. Moment-resisting connections for glulam using birch plywood : An experimental study on both mechanical and adhesive connections

    University essay from KTH/Byggnadsmaterial

    Author : Jonatan Ringaby; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The aim of this study was to investigate the load-bearing capacity and stiffness of mechanical and adhesively bonded connections in timber structures with gusset plates made of birch plywood, as a preliminary study for potential future use in long-span timber structures which could reduce the environmental impact of the building sector by substituting steel with wood products in moment-resisting connections. Birch plywood was chosen for this study due to its high bending strength in comparison to plywood made of softwoods and its availability on the market. READ MORE

  6. 5. Soil-Structure Interaction Analysis of Portal Frame Railway Bridges : Numerical Analysis of Two Case Study Bridges

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : Nils Sandqvist; Marko Milicevic; [2020]
    Keywords : Soil-structure Interaction; Portal Frame Bridge; Dynamic Analysis; Perfectly Matched Layer; Train Passage Analysis; Railway Bridge; High Speed Train v;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns dynamic Soil-Structure Interaction (SSI) analysis of portal framerailway bridges. Dynamic problems are common for bridges used for high speedrailway traffic. The passing trains induce harmonic loads on the bridges causingvibration amplitudes that may cause damage to the bridge structures and userdiscomfort. READ MORE
