  1. 1. Temperature analysis of fire exposed load-bearing structures of mono glazed balconies

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Byggkonstruktion och brand

    Author : Andreas Lilja; [2020]
    Keywords : CFD; FDS; FEM; TASEF; EKS; Eurocode; Simulation; Fire; Balcony; CFD; FDS; FEM; TASEF; EKS; Eurokoderna; Simulering; Brand; Balkong;

    Abstract : Previous to the now acting construction regulations EKS and Eurocode, the fire resistance of the load-bearing structures of mono glazed balconies were designed with a fire test called the SP fire 105. In 2011, when EKS replaced the previous construction regulations called Boverkets konstruktionsregler, BKR, the SP fire 105 was no longer the requirement for mono glazed balconies. READ MORE

  2. 2. Temperature distribution in air tight cavities of steel framed modular buildings when exposed to fire

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

    Author : Elin Bergroth; Greta Torstensson; [2019]
    Keywords : Cavities; fire furnace; fire test; modular building; steel; TASEF; Brandugn; brandtest; hålrum; modulbyggnader; stål; TASEF;

    Abstract : A common way to construct large buildings is by assemble prefabricated modules around a load bearing steel construction. However, if a fire occurs these buildings can be subject to a rapid fire spread due to its cellular nature. READ MORE

  3. 3. Seismic evaluation and retrofitting of an existing building in Athens using pushover analysis

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    Author : Angelos Lazaris; [2019]
    Keywords : Earthquakes; seismic analysis; retrofitting; pushover analysis; concrete building; steel bracing; fibre reinforced plastic;

    Abstract : Earthquakes are one of the biggest problems in civil engineering all over the world. Due to earthquakes, great disasters in cities with collapsed structures and human losses have been caused. READ MORE

  4. 4. Experimental study on innovative connections for large span structural timber trusses

    University essay from KTH/Byggnadsmaterial

    Author : Petter Werner Åström; [2019]
    Keywords : Timber structure; timber joint; large span trusses; experimental study; structural timber; birch plywood; reinforcement screws;

    Abstract : Large span timber trusses are usually built with glulam. One problem with large span glulam trusses is that the connections needed to transfer the load between truss members are often complex and expensive. Another issue is transportation. READ MORE

  5. 5. Hybrid testing procedure development : An experimental study a hybrid simulation of a steel truss element

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggteknik (BY)

    Author : Ali Alhameedi; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Hybrid simulation is a numerical and experimental structural testing technique in which the critical structural members are tested experimentally, while the rest of the structure is modeled numerically. During hybrid testing, the numerical model is updated continuously based on the output of the experimental test. READ MORE
