1. 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.

2. CHARACTERISATION OF CROSS LAMINATED TIMBER PROPERTIES
University essay from Lunds universitet/Byggnadsmekanik; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för byggvetenskaperAbstract : This project concerns an analysis of a hitherto untested method for determining the modulus of elasticity (MoE) and shear modulus parallel to grain, as well as the rolling shear modulus of cross laminated timber (CLT) through 3-point bending tests. A review of analytical models and methods is included, followed by an evaluation of the effect of the annual ring orientation and shear stress distribution at shear loading of individual board cross-sections.

3. Reduced stress method for steel in class 4 cross-sections : Evaluation of the reduced stress method for a railway bridge
University essay from KTH/Byggteknik och designAbstract : The effective cross-section method, also called reduced cross-section method is generally used for steel in class 4 cross-sections in considering local buckling. This method is a bit complicated and time consuming, which often leads to engineers not using profiles in class 4 cross-sections. READ MORE

4. VERTICAL ELLIPTICAL ACCESS-SHAFTS Geometrical optimisation through FE-modelling
University essay from Lunds universitet/Geoteknik; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för byggvetenskaperAbstract : Urbanisation is causing densification of cities and more and more facilities are being placed in the underground to utilise the urban space as efficiently as possible. Access to the underground is obtained by constructing vertical access shafts. READ MORE

5. Local Buckling of Doubly-Symmetric I-Sections Subjected to Warping Torsion : The limitations of the Reduced Cross-Section Method under unconventional loading
University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnadAbstract : In regular design practice, when it comes to conventional loading, such as uniaxial compression and bending, the local buckling of thin plates is taken care of through cross section classification. The effect of warping torsion, which also gives rise to normal stresses in the section, however, is typically not considered in the process. READ MORE
