1. 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

2. Modelling masonry spires : An investigation
University essay from KTH/BetongbyggnadAbstract : Masonry spires are a typical part of church architecture. Since it is rare that masonry is used as a load-bearing material in the western world today, it is important to maintain and increase the knowledge of modelling masonry structures both from a maintenance point of view and to build new masonry structures.

3. Cracking in a slender concrete slab due to thermal variation
University essay from KTH/BetongbyggnadAbstract : Concrete slabs used in thepulp and paper industries are often situated outdoors, which means that theslabs are exposed to temperature variations due to different weatherconditions. These temperature variations together with operational temperaturesassociated with the manufacturing process, may introduce high temperaturegradients in the concrete. READ MORE

4. The effect of pre-stressing location on punching shear capacity of concrete flat slabs
University essay from KTH/BetongbyggnadAbstract : Implementing pre-stressing cables is a viable option aiming at controlling deformation and cracking of concrete flat slabs in serviceability limit state. The pre-stressing cables also contribute to punching shear capacity of the slab when they are located in vicinity of the column. READ MORE

5. Linear and non-linear FE-analysis of cracking behavior of wing walls in integral bridges
University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för KonstruktionsteknikAbstract : Wing walls on slab frame integral bridges has traditionally been designed for mainly earth pressure and its self-weight. It has also been designed separately from the rest of the bridge. Traditionally no 3D effects have been considered in the design of the wing walls. READ MORE
