  1. 1. Chunk Metabolism : Exploring how to plan for reuse of structural elements

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Isabella Nilsson; [2022]
    Keywords : Architectural elements; urban metabolism; demolition; deconstruction; design process; structural elements; concrete; steel; circular construction; circular economy; material harvesting; urban mining; Arkitektoniska element; urban metabolism; rivning; dekonstruktion; designprocess; tunga stomelement; betong; stål; cirkulärt byggande; cirkulär ekonomi; material harvesting; urban mining;

    Abstract : With a major share of the negative environmental impacts deriving from construction and its waste, ways to reduce the material and energy use in this sector have been the focus of studies for decades. Reuse of building elements and materials is gaining traction with researchers, architects, developers and real estate owners. READ MORE

  3. 2. Numerical simulations of shear reinforced concrete beams subjected to blast loads

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    Author : Anton Frank; Andreas Fristedt; [2021]
    Keywords : Numerical simulations; shear reinforcement; blast loads; dynamic shear failure; Numeriska simuleringar; tvärkraftsarmering; luftstötvåg; dynamiskt skjuvbrott;

    Abstract : Historical accidents and experimental investigations have made apparent that blast loaded concrete members are prone to fail in brittle shear rather than a ductile flexure mode. Air blasts from accidental detonations or explosives may cause severe damage to buildings and infrastructure and it is of great importance that load carrying members can withstand the impulse that arise to avoid progressive collapses.

  4. 3. A Comparative LCA study on the refurbishment of quays with induced mineral deposition technology

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Remy Prame Joseph Jerald; [2020]
    Keywords : Refurbishment; Induced mineral deposition; Life cycle assessment; Climate change impact; Global warming potential;

    Abstract : A quay is a structure which is constructed along the shoreline for docking purposes. When the quay is constructed using reinforced concrete, damage over time happens under the combined action of chemical and mechanical corrosion of the varied materials. READ MORE

  5. 4. Effects of cracking of coupling beams onhigh rise towers subjected to wind load

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    Author : Brook Worku Woldemikael; [2020]
    Keywords : Crack; reinforcement content; aspect ratio; shear deformation; joint flexibility; concrete grade; effective stiffness.; Sprickor; förstärkningsinnehåll; tvärsnittsförhållande; skjuvdeformation; ledflexibilitet; betongkvalitet; effektiv styvhet;

    Abstract : In high rise towers, reinforced concrete elevator shafts with coupling beams are extensively used as a principal structural element to resist lateral loads. The lateral load resistance of the tower is dominantly dependent on the stiffness of the load-bearing walls, and coupling beams connecting them. READ MORE

  6. 5. Parametric optimization of reinforced concrete slabs subjected to punching shear

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    Author : Sofia Thuresson; [2020]
    Keywords : Parametric design; Optimization; Punching shear; Concrete; Flat slab; Eurocode 2; Shear reinforcement; Genetic algorithm; Visual programming; Dynamo.; Parametrisk design; Optimering; Genomstansning; Betong; Pelardäck; Eurocode 2; Tvärkraftsarmering; Genetisk algoritm; Visuell programmering; Dynamo.;

    Abstract : The construction industry is currently developing and evolving towards more automated and optimized processes in the project design phase. One reason for this development is that computational power is becoming a more precise and accessible tool and its applications are multiplying daily. READ MORE
