11. Simulation of load capacity of 3D printed concrete patterns
University essay from KTH/BetongbyggnadAbstract : Three-dimensional concrete printing (3DCP) is a technology which has rapidly developed in recent years. The technology is based on a layer-by-layer technique where models are designed in a 3D software program and printed by a robot. Unlike conventional concrete, 3DCP has stricter material requirements due to the absence of formwork. READ MORE

12. Numerical method to investigate and assess the capacity of a damaged concrete structure : Using image analysis and advanced concrete modeling
University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnadAbstract : Concrete has for decades been one of the main materials used to construct important structuressuch as dams and bridges. However, after years of service, the concrete structuresstart deteriorating and signs of damages start showing on the structure. READ MORE

13. Low-carbon concretes in infrastructures : Applicability, potential and carbon footprint focusing on the Parisian Metro Line L18
University essay from KTH/BetongbyggnadAbstract : Low-carbon concretes are more and more commonly used to limit the environmental impact of concrete structures. Among concrete structures, infrastructures are characterized by their high load-bearing function (foundations, bridges, aqueducts, dams, etc.). READ MORE

14. Strengthening of non-composite bridges by Partial Composite Action
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurserAbstract : A common bridge type is the steel-concrete bridge where the concrete deck is built over steel girders. In many earlier designs the bridge type was often built as non-composite, which means that the concrete deck and the steel girder has no shear connection at the steel-concrete interface and therefore bend as individual components.

15. Influence of load distribution on trough bridges
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurserAbstract : There are approximately 4000 railway bridges in Sweden and a common construction type is the short span concrete trough bridge. With the current standards the load distribution through ballast is assumed to be uniformly distributed with a distribution slope of 2:1 according to the Swedish Administration of Transport or 4:1 according to Eurocode 1.
