  1. 6. Cracking and Fatigue in the Prestressed Concrete Bridge at Autio

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Byggkonstruktion och brand

    Author : Kasper Andersson; Jon Leidzén; [2022]
    Keywords : Fatigue; Cracking; Prestressed Concrete Bridge; Rainflow;

    Abstract : In early 2020, cracks were discovered on the bridge crossing the Torne River at Autio. This resulted in an investigation being launched to determine the structural state of the bridge. READ MORE

  3. 7. A comparative evaluation of hydrostatic pressure and buckling of a large cylindrical steel tank designed according to EN14015 and according to the Eurocodes

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggteknik (BY)

    Author : Musole Kambita; [2022]
    Keywords : Cylindrical steel tanks; yield strength; carbon steel; high strength steel; design load; buckling; stiffening rings; Finite Element Method FEM ; Linear Elastic Bifurcation LBA ; and Geometrically and Materially Nonlinear Analysis with Imperfections GMNIA .;

    Abstract : Above ground steel storage tanks are used worldwide for the storage of various liquids. EN 14015:2005, which has traditionally been used to design the tanks, does not necessarily fulfil the requirements of the Swedish Building Code. READ MORE

  4. 8. Parametric Studies of Train-Track-Bridge Interaction : An evaluation of the dynamic amplification due to track irregularities for freight transport

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : Rasmus Elm Dahlman; Emil Lundberg; [2021]
    Keywords : Dynamics; dynamic amplification factor; railway bridge; train-track-bridge interaction; vehicle model; track irregularities; PSD; Dynamisk förstoringsfaktor; dynamik; järnvägsbroar; tåg-spår-bro interaktion; fordonsmodell; spårojämnheter; PSD;

    Abstract : In this thesis a train-track-bridge interaction (TTBI) model is developed in order to study the dynamic amplification from track irregularities on railway bridges traversed by freight trains. These simulations are of great importance since rail freight transport is expected to increase in order to meet the climate goals. READ MORE

  5. 9. The use of higher steel grades in building elements

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

    Author : Hampus Berggren; [2021]
    Keywords : Area reduction; Change of steel grade; Emission reduction; High strength steel; Higher steel grade; Steel;

    Abstract : Structural steel is one of the main building materials used commercial. Its strength is its formality and high yield strength which allows less material overall. Steel is often divided into steel grades such as S275, S355, S420 and so forth. READ MORE

  6. 10. Influence of load distribution on trough bridges

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

    Author : Jacob Gustafsson; [2021]
    Keywords : Bridge; Trough bridge; Concrete; Load distribution; Ballast;

    Abstract : There are approximately 4000 railway bridges in Sweden and a common construction type is the short span concrete trough bridge. With the current standards the load distribution through ballast is assumed to be uniformly distributed with a distribution slope of 2:1 according to the Swedish Administration of Transport or 4:1 according to Eurocode 1.
