  1. 1. Glued connection for TCC slabs : Experimental and Numerical investigation

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggteknik (BY)

    Author : Ervin Halilovic; Seid Lotinac; [2022]
    Keywords : TCC connection; Composite element; Adhesive connection; Silicone Adhesive; Polyurethane Adhesive; Slip modulus; Shear stress; Cohesive elements; Traction seperation law; Mullins effect; Hysteresis;

    Abstract : Timber-concrete composite (TCC) structures are becoming more popular in several industrial applications as an efficient method for optimizing the structural performance and the cost of construction as well as lowering the emissions of carbon dioxide. TCC floors are more sustainable than pure concrete floors and more resistant to vibrations and excessive deflections than pure wooden floors. READ MORE

  2. 2. Building extension through additional CLT storeys

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Charalampos Livas; [2020]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In the last decade, the use of cross-laminated timber (CLT) panels as load bearing elements have become a usual solution for buildings and structures with an upward trend internationally. This is because CLT has brilliant physical and mechanical properties and it is also an eco-friendly and renewable material. READ MORE

  3. 3. Nonlinear Finite Element Analysis of Shrinking Reinforced Concrete Slabs-on-ground

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    Author : Shruthi Prakash; [2018]
    Keywords : Slabs-on-ground; Gradient shrinkage; Statical indeterminate structure; Vertical deflection and Cracking;

    Abstract : Concrete slabs-on-ground are commonly used in many types of industrial floors, warehouses, highways, parking lots and buildings. Cracks and deflection of slabs are undesired events caused by differential shrinkage, which limits the service life of the slabs. READ MORE

  4. 4. Prediction Models of Shrinkage and Creep in Industrial Floors and Overlays

    University essay from KTH/Byggvetenskap

    Author : Aida Freidriks; [2015]
    Keywords : Computations; concrete; creep; industrial floors; overlays; prediction models; shrinkage;

    Abstract : All form of activity in a building is in need for a sound platform to be able to operate. The performance of concrete floor in industrial spaces is of importance because there are greater demands on industrial concrete floor. READ MORE

  5. 5. Punching Shear Capacity of Fibre Reinforced Concrete Slabs with Conventional Reinforcement : Computational analysis of punching models

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : Zeinab Tazaly; [2012]
    Keywords : Steel fibre reinforced concrete slab; punching capacity; concrete test; residual tensile strength; DAfStB; Swedish Concrete Association; conventional reinforcement;

    Abstract : Steel fibre reinforced concrete is not a novel concept, it has been around since the mid-1900s, but despite its great success in shotcrete-reinforced rock walls and industrial floors it has not made any impact on either beams or elevated slab. Apparently, the absence of standards is the main reason. READ MORE
