  1. 6. Reinforced Concrete Beams Strengthened with Side Near Surface Mounted FRP : A parametric study based on finite element analysis

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

    Author : Rewan Eredini; [2016]
    Keywords : Side near surface mounted reinforcement; Bottom near surface mounted reinforcement; Parametric study; FEM-analysis; Atena; Carbon fiber reinforced polymer;

    Abstract : Most of the today’s concrete structures are older than tenyears, and the need to strengthening existing structures is growing steadily. This is due to various reasons such as degradation due to ageing, environmentally induced degradation, poor initial design or construction and lack of maintenance, to name a few. READ MORE

  3. 7. Experimental analysis of limitations in the strut-and-tie method

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Konstruktionsteknik

    Author : Mikael Wahlgren; Niels Bailleul; [2016]
    Keywords : Strut-and-Tie method; Reinforced concrete; Concrete Damaged Plasticity; Fracture energy; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : One of the overall main purposes for a structural engineer is to design structures and structural elements so that they meet society’s safety requirements, yet use as little material as possible. In order to do so, the designer has to understand and simplify a complex reality. READ MORE

  4. 8. Design of Hollow Reinforced Concrete Columns in the Tubed Mega Frame : Dimensionering av ihåliga armerade betongpelare i ”Tubed Mega Frame”

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    Author : David Tönseth; Kristian Welchermill; [2014]
    Keywords : Reinforced Concrete; Hollow columns; Design; Tubed Mega Frame; Concrete;

    Abstract : A new concept for the structural system for tall buildings, called the “Tubed Mega Frame”, has been developed by Tyréns AB. The structure consists of several hollow reinforced concrete columns at the perimeter of the building and at certain levels, the columns are tied together with perimeter walls. READ MORE

  5. 9. Modelling of strengthened connections for large span truss structures

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Konstruktionsteknik

    Author : Peter Kobel; [2011]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Because of its large ratio between strength and weight timber is a material very suitable for large span structures. For large spans of more than about 30 m, usually truss structures are adopted. READ MORE

  6. 10. Static and fatigue design of load carrying welded joints in high strength steels : -In collaboration with Cargotec Sweden AB

    University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner

    Author : Noman Ali Mumtaz; Mansoor Khurshid; [2011]
    Keywords : Strength mismatch; penetration ratio; full penetration; partial penetration; Eurocode 3; AWS D1.1; BSK 07; HAZ; ultimate strength capacity; FE analysis; effective notch concept; beam theory analysis; sub modelling.;

    Abstract : This thesis work is carried out in Cargotec Sweden AB, Bromma Conquip to study the behavior of load carrying welded joints in different weld metal strength mismatch conditions and various penetration ratios. Static and fatigue strength calculations have been made using FEA and experimentation. READ MORE
