In order to reduce the excessive vibration responses of a reinforced concrete frame structure induced by several vibrating screens working simultaneously, field monitoring and some reduction measures are carried out. The results show that maximum vertical exceeds 106% limitation building vibration. structural response analysis is attributed resonance, as frequency coincides with natural floors ...

background: high density concrete is extensively used for efficient radiation attenuation in radiotherapy rooms and nuclear reactors. over the past eight years, some efficient galena-based concrete samples for shielding x or gamma rays was produced. the goal of this study was to produce a novel high density concrete against neutron and photon radiations using tourmaline and galena. materials an...

there is a worldwide interest in using fibers of different types in concrete mixtures. in this regard, as the use of pet fibers has gradually increased during the last decade, this study aims to investigate the effects of pet fibers on the mechanical properties of hardened concrete and the workability of fresh concrete. to this end, different contents of pet fibers (pc= %0, %0.5, %1 and %1.5) a...

one of the main factors of premature deterioration of concrete structures is the corrosion of reinforcements. chloride penetration of concrete is one of the main reasons of this phenomenon. therefore, to have durable structure, it is necessary to have concretes with low permeability.there are various methods to evaluate permeability of concrete. finding a relationship between them can be useful...

By increasing the demolition of old concrete structures and the interest of civil industries to consume cheaper materials, using Recycled Concrete Aggregate (RCA) can cause environmental protection and decrease the construction costs. On the other hand, the high potential of Recycled Aggregate Concrete (RAC) in concrete industry was established by extensive experimental researches were performe...

We study both analytically and numerically the problem of a partially inelastic bail on a platform vibrating with frequency
