    Abstract : Several boom segments form the crane boom. These segments are often truss structures formed out of circular hollow sections, which are welded together forming the truss joints. A adequate modelling of these truss joints is very important for operational strength and life. READ MORE

  4. 3. Strengthening of I-girder bridges : Fatigue endurance

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

    Author : Olle Edström; [2016]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Structures have always been subjected to the detrimental consequences of the fatigue phenomenon. The consequences due to this damaging effects leads to crack initiation and the ultimate result being complete failure. Fatigue appears on structures that has to endure fluctuating loads over a long period. READ MORE

  5. 4. The Influence of End- and Edge Distances on the Load-Carrying Capacity in Joints with Inclined Screws.

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Konstruktionsteknik

    Author : Pernilla Malmborg; [2004]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Using an inclined screw brings many advantages compared to traditional methods, e.g. high load-bearing capacity, fast and easy montage and high fire resistance. This report contains a study of the influence end- and edge distances have on the load-carrying capacity in joints with inclined screws. READ MORE

  6. 5. Investigation of stability of glulam roof trusses with large spans

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Konstruktionsteknik; Lunds universitet/Väg- och vattenbyggnad (CI)

    Author : Eva Frühwald; [2001]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : In certain types of glulam roof structures with large spans, reliable methods for design with respect to instability are lacking. One example is a three-hinged roof truss with steel tension rods as shown in Figure 1. READ MORE
