  1. 1. Loading tests on composite concrete columns : A comparison between composite columns made of permanent 3DPC formwork filled with SCC and columns made of homogenous SCC

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    Author : Abdulla Al-Bazarkan; Hussain Alahmad; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In order to achieve increased sustainability when casting concrete structures this thesis investigates the possibility of utilizing 3D-printing to construct formwork and digitalize construction. By digitizing construction less workers are needed and therefore less capital. READ MORE

  3. 2. Shear stiffness of cross laminated timber diaphragms - A study of the influence of connection and member stiffness

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

    Author : Gustaf Olausson; [2021]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Since ancient times, buildings have been constructed with the use of timber and during the modern era, new types of timber products have been developed. Today, more constructions, especially residential buildings are being built with timber as the main load-bearing material. READ MORE

  4. 3. Timber Concrete Composite floors with Cross Laminated Timber - Structural behavior & Design

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Konstruktionsteknik; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för byggvetenskaper

    Author : Albin Forsberg; Filip Farbäck; [2020]
    Keywords : timber concrete composite; TCC; floors; cross-laminated timber; CLT; structural behavior; design methods; Gamma method; Equivalent gamma method; Extended gamma method; RFEM; first natural frequency; serviceability limit state; ultimate limit state; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : På grund av den ökade miljö- och klimatmedvetenheten har övergången till förnybara material påskyndats, och detsamma gäller intresset för träbyggande. Med att bygga högt i trä kommer dock ett flertal konstruktionsmässiga utmaningar, där en av utmaningarna är dynamik på grund av träets låga egenvikt jämfört med andra mer konventionella byggnadsmaterial.

  5. 4. Punching shear in concrete flat slabs supported on slender edge steel columns

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    Author : Pasha Jalal; Jose Andres Perez; [2020]
    Keywords : Punching shear; ATENA; FEA; precast slab; flat slab; top and foot plate.; Genomstansning; ATENA; FEA; plattbärlag; pelardäck; topp- och fotplåt.;

    Abstract : Punching shear is a failure mechanism caused by concentrated loads, creating a crack pattern that resembles a cone shape or piece of pie starting from the top surface of the slab and prolongs downwards. When the total shear force is greater than the shear resistance of the slab, it may eventually lead to punching shear failure. READ MORE

  6. 5. Challenges during start-up of urine nitrification in an MBBR

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Ellen Ascard Edefell; [2017]
    Keywords : Urine; source-separation; urine stabilisation; nitrogen recovery; nitrification; moving bed biofilm reactor; MBBR; water engineering; environmental engineering; vattenförsörjningsteknik; avloppsteknik; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Nitrogen and phosphorous compounds are secreted by humans and treated in wastewater treatments plants. These substances are also found in agricultural fertilisers and needed for plant growth. Nutrient recycling is limited in conventional treatment systems and valuable products are lost. READ MORE
