  1. 21. How much better does a concrete building have to perform energy-wise to have the same CO2-impact as a timber building? : A Life Cycle Assessment study

    University essay from KTH/Hållbara byggnader

    Author : Pinar Dagistan; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This thesis aims to calculate the life cycle emission of a timber building and compare it to a concrete alternative. Furthermore, to investigate whether there is a chance that the total impact of the concrete model can be off-set completely by certain design strategies. READ MORE

  3. 22. Parametric Studies of Train-Track-Bridge Interaction : An evaluation of the dynamic amplification due to track irregularities for freight transport

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : Rasmus Elm Dahlman; Emil Lundberg; [2021]
    Keywords : Dynamics; dynamic amplification factor; railway bridge; train-track-bridge interaction; vehicle model; track irregularities; PSD; Dynamisk förstoringsfaktor; dynamik; järnvägsbroar; tåg-spår-bro interaktion; fordonsmodell; spårojämnheter; PSD;

    Abstract : In this thesis a train-track-bridge interaction (TTBI) model is developed in order to study the dynamic amplification from track irregularities on railway bridges traversed by freight trains. These simulations are of great importance since rail freight transport is expected to increase in order to meet the climate goals. READ MORE

  4. 23. Development of supportive template for the design process of silos

    University essay from

    Author : Anders Dahl; Mudassar Ahmad Khan; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The purpose of the thesis is to support IBC International in its method of designing the silos. Designing of Silos involves the calculations of pressures acting on the silos due to the loads. It involves creating a template, which is like software for making design procedures easier and convenient for the engineers of IBC International. READ MORE

  5. 24. The use of higher steel grades in building elements

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

    Author : Hampus Berggren; [2021]
    Keywords : Area reduction; Change of steel grade; Emission reduction; High strength steel; Higher steel grade; Steel;

    Abstract : Structural steel is one of the main building materials used commercial. Its strength is its formality and high yield strength which allows less material overall. Steel is often divided into steel grades such as S275, S355, S420 and so forth. READ MORE

  6. 25. Influence of load distribution on trough bridges

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

    Author : Jacob Gustafsson; [2021]
    Keywords : Bridge; Trough bridge; Concrete; Load distribution; Ballast;

    Abstract : 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.
