  1. 1. Concrete reinforced with FRP rebars : Evaluation of durability and behaviour in the Service Limit State (SLS)

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Byggkonstruktion och brand

    Author : David Ottosson; [2021]
    Keywords : GFRP; Durability; SLS; Atena;

    Abstract : One of the most common building materials is concrete and it has been for a long time. To overcome its low tensile capacity concrete structures are normally reinforced with steel rebars. READ MORE

  3. 2. 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

  4. 3. Parametric Optimization of Foundation Improvements with RC Slabs on Piles

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    Author : Oliver Kling; Nils Dahlman; [2019]
    Keywords : Parametric Design; Parametric Optimization; Concrete Structures; Reinforced Concrete; Foundation Improvements;

    Abstract : Parametric design has proven to be a powerful tool for structural engineers to find innovativesolutions to complex problems more effectively compared to conventional methods. Theflexibility off parametric design is immense since all types of structures depend on a range ofparameters that can be isolated, controlled and altered. READ MORE

  5. 4. Nonlinear analysis of reinforced concrete slab on partially softening ground : Ickelinjär analys av armerad betongplatta på delvis uppmjuknande grund

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    Author : Yang Zhou; [2017]
    Keywords : Reinforced concrete slab foundation; Nonlinear analysis; FEM;

    Abstract : Reinforced concrete slabs are a conventional type of foundation that is widely used in residential, commercial and industrial buildings. Most of the slab foundations are constructed directly on the ground without another structural medium in between and some of the slabs are therefore influenced by ground softening. READ MORE

  6. 5. Punching Shear Capacity of Fibre Reinforced Concrete Slabs with Conventional Reinforcement : Computational analysis of punching models

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : Zeinab Tazaly; [2012]
    Keywords : Steel fibre reinforced concrete slab; punching capacity; concrete test; residual tensile strength; DAfStB; Swedish Concrete Association; conventional reinforcement;

    Abstract : Steel fibre reinforced concrete is not a novel concept, it has been around since the mid-1900s, but despite its great success in shotcrete-reinforced rock walls and industrial floors it has not made any impact on either beams or elevated slab. Apparently, the absence of standards is the main reason. READ MORE
