  1. 1. Optimization of Material Cost and Carbon Footprint of Flat Reinforced Concrete Slabs with Simple Steel Piles : Designed according to Eurocode and Swedish appendix EKS

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

    Author : Oskar Lönn; [2023]
    Keywords : Optimization; RC slab; Material cost; API;

    Abstract : When designing reinforced concrete (RC) slabs with steel piles various variables must be considered, from the internal force to the distance of piles. An endless number of designs are possible, leaving space for optimizing designs. READ MORE

  3. 2. Dynamic Performance of a Tall Building to Earthquake Loading : Finding the optimum mass and stiffness

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : Andrés Alonso San Segundo; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : With the increasing cost of land, the development of ultra-high performance concrete, and the technological advancements in equipment and machinery, we are able to construct and refurbish skyscrapers like never before. How they are built, what materials they use, or what structural system defines them, all affect their dynamic response, which in the end is the combination of the stiffness and mass, two key parameters in engineering of tall buildings.

  6. 5. Comparison of Punching Shear Design Provisions for Flat Slabs

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    Author : Jonatan Aalto; Elisabeth Neuman; [2017]
    Keywords : Punching shear; resistance; concrete; flat slab; design provisions; Eurocode 2; case study; parametric study; shear reinforcement; prestressed;

    Abstract : Abstract A new generation of EN 1992-1-1 (2004) also known as Eurocode 2 is under development and currently there is a set of proposed provisions regarding section 6.4 about punching shear, PT1prEN 1992-1-1(2017). It was of interest to compare the proposal with the current punching shear design provisions. READ MORE
