  1. 1. Experimental and computational analysis of the thermal degradation and the loss of strength of engineered wood-based panels

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

    Author : Wickramasooriyage Devmini Kularatne; [2022]
    Keywords : Oriented strand board; thermal decomposition; mechanical degradation; heat transfer modelling; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The current trends in the construction industry push toward materials that are more sustainable and environmentally friendlier than more traditional building materials such as concrete and steel. Timber and timber composites are one of the most popular materials on this list, due to both their mechanical strength and pleasant aesthetics. READ MORE

  3. 2. Steel-to-concrete connections in narrow concrete corners

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Konstruktionsteknik

    Author : Daniel Carlson Bjernald; Emil Lönn; [2022]
    Keywords : Concrete; steel bolts; concrete failure modes; Abaqus; numerical calculations; concrete cone failure; concrete damaged plasticity; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : A commonly occurring problem when designing steel-to-concrete connections in corners with space deficits is the necessity for irregularly placed bolts with regards to design codes. The complexity of the calculations for the irregular placements of bolts generates the need to use simplified models during the design. READ MORE

  4. 3. 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
