  1. 1. The Effect of Chloride-Induced Corrosion Patterns on the Crack Width of Reinforced Concrete

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    Author : Dilara Uludag; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This master's thesis investigates cracking in a parking garage, with a particular focus on the influence of corrosion. Concrete structures commonly experience cracking, and corrosion has emerged as one of the primary contributing factors. These cracks, varying in size and shape, can be considered structural discontinuities. READ MORE

  3. 2. Evaluation of structurally controlled rockfall hazard for underground excavations in seismically active areas of the Kiirunavaara mine

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

    Author : Manuel Alberto Fuentes Espinoza; [2023]
    Keywords : Structurally controlled rockfalls; rockfalls due to seismic shaking; sublevel caving; fork layout; Unwedge; wedge analysis; deterministic analysis; probabilistic analysis;

    Abstract : Sublevel caving operations at great depths are subjected both to large stress concentrations that are redistributed as the mining front progresses and to mining-induced seismicity. This is the case for Kiirunavaara mine, Sweden’s largest underground mine. READ MORE

  4. 3. Life cycle assessment of timber high-rise building structures : Case study of a project examined in the context of French environmental regulation (RE2020)

    University essay from KTH/Byggnadsmaterial

    Author : Corentin Le Gall; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The damages that the building sector does to the environment can no longer be ignored and need to be approached with a life cycle assessment (LCA). Advantages to build in wood and to build dense cities lead to a potential “two birds in one stone” effect regarding high-rise massive timber construction. READ MORE

  5. 4. Granbarkborren i svenska produktionsskogar : vilka faktorer påverkar massutbrott och vilka åtgärder kan vidtas för att minska dem?

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Biosystems and Technology (from 130101)

    Author : Fredrike Lohe; Sonja Otell; [2022]
    Keywords : Ips typographus; Picea abies; klimatförändringar; skadedjur; naturliga fiender; vattenstress; storm; skogsbruk; massattack;

    Abstract : Granbarkborren, Ips typographus, är en av få arter som kan öka drastiskt i populationsdensitet och leda till en omfattande dödlighet av träd i skogen. Skadorna år 2020 uppgick till ett värde på 3,5 miljarder kronor, vilket gör det värdefullt att försöka förstå varför dessa utbrott sker och vad för åtgärder som kan vidtas för att undvika dem.

  6. 5. Study of demolition processes for prestressed concrete bridges: Kalix bridge

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

    Author : Lundin Hanna; [2022]
    Keywords : Kalix bridge; demolition methods; demolition process; FEM analysis; Kalixbron; rivningsmetoder; rivningsprocesser; FEM analys;

    Abstract : Bridges in Sweden are getting older and some of them are reaching their designed life span. With an older generation of bridges, the need for a good understanding of demolition processes increase. The Kalix bridge is planned to be demolished and will be used as a case study in this thesis.
