  1. 1. Applications of steel-plate composite structures for nuclear modular construction

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    Author : Yann Vicedo; [2021]
    Keywords : nuclear concrete structures; modular construction; steel-plate composite modules; kärnkraftsbetongkonstruktioner; modulär konstruktion; kompositmoduler av stålplåt;

    Abstract : Despite being the world’s second most important low-carbon source of electricity, the development of nuclear capacities is limited and does not comply with the International Energy Agency’s Sustainable Development Scenario. One of the main reasons for this lack of development is high and increasing costs of new nuclear capacities. READ MORE

  4. 3. Climate Change Mitigation Measures of Load-Bearing Structure - A comparison of alternative structural designs using Life Cycle Assessment

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Konstruktionsteknik

    Author : Mirass Jalil; [2020]
    Keywords : Life Cycle Assessment; LCA; Load-Bearing Structure; Livscykelanalys; Byggnadsstomme; stomalternativ; structural engineering; span length; cross-section depth; precast concrete slab; in-situ concrete slab.; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : I mars 2015 nådde den globalt genomsnittliga koldioxidhalten 400 ppm för första gången på tre miljoner år. Därför satte den svenska regeringen, år 2017, upp målet att Sverige ska vara klimatneutralt år 2045. READ MORE

  5. 4. Transmission of Vibrations in Precast Concrete Slabs

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

    Author : Adam Oskarsson; [2020]
    Keywords : Vibration; Concrete; Transmission; Precast;

    Abstract : Dynamic loads have historically not been a troubled area for concrete floors, foremostbecause of the high self-weight compared to the dynamic load. With new technical andcalculation achievements during the last decades concrete floors have become longerand more slender. READ MORE

  6. 5. Structural robustness - FE methodology for analysing alternate load paths in buildings

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Byggnadsmekanik; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för byggvetenskaper

    Author : Axel Kjellman; [2017]
    Keywords : accidental action; robustness; finite element method; FE; dynamics; progressive collapse; redundancy; alternate path; notional removal; precast; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Robust structures are necessary in order to avoid a progressive collapse if a local failure occurs, for instance, failure of a column. Robustness is achieved in structures by designing them for so-called accidental actions, such as an explosion or a vehicle impact. READ MORE
