Lattice-girder floor slabs and double-wall elements have been successfully used in building and industrial construction for decades. These precast elements of 50 – 70 mm thickness serve as permanent formwork for the subsequently added in-situ concrete creating a monolithic structure. The high prefabrication level allows the construction period to be significantly minimized. The main goal is the...

the effect of steel plate thickness on the repair effectiveness of rc beam is presented in this paper. a total of four beams were tested, one beam repaired by cfrp with a thickness of 1.2 mm and used as a control beam, and three beams repaired by a steel plate. steel plates with a thickness of 2 mm, 3 mm, and 4 mm were used in repairing the beams. the maximum load-carrying capacity, deflection ...

In this paper, the authors used finite element method to investigate longitudinal and transverse shear lag effects effect of aspect ratio on double-chamber cantilever concrete box girder under uniform distributed load. The results show that root section is positive lag, mid-span negative lag. direction, changes appear in girder. at fixed end significantly affected by ratio, degree different par...

This study proposes a novel reduced-order model (ROM), based on the Volterra series, for aerodynamic force of bridge deck section. Moreover, ROM streamlined box girder section Great Belt East Bridge (GBEB) is identified with computational fluid dynamic (CFD) simulations. Furthermore, an analysis method combining and Newmark-β integration established to simulate aeroelastic responses Finally, wi...

Keselamatan dan Kesehatan Kerja merupakan suatu hal yang sangat penting di dunia konstruksi karena bersinggungan langsung dengan pekerja, perhitungan potensi risiko salah dapat mengakibatkan terjadinya kecelakaan kerja terutama kepada para pekerja Indonesia sendiri pada pekerjaan erection girder masih sering terjadi, sekitar 6 insiden terkait terjadi dalam kurun waktu 2017-2021 maka penelitian ...

Offshore design and construction is much more difficult than land-based design and construction, particularly due to hoisting operations. Real-time monitoring of the orientation and movement of a hoisted structure is thus required for operators' safety. In recent years, rapid development of the smart-phone commercial market has offered the possibility that everyone can carry a mini personal com...

This paper presents a modelling approach that can be used by contractors to plan elevated highway reconstruction projects. The proposed model estimates the project duration, productivity rate of the operation, and visualizes the output using 4D modelling. In this paper, the focus is on the demolition and construction of a box girder elevated highways as part of an interchange reconstruction pro...

Fiber Reinforcement Polymer(FRP) has been widely accepted as an innovative material for renovation and strengthening of existing infrastructures. Among the FRP materials, the Poly-p-phenylene benzobisoxazole (PBO) fiber sheets attracted great attention in recent years because of the high strength, high Young modulus and high energy absorption capability. In this study, a PBO Prestressing Upgrad...

The segmental prestressed concrete box girder of Koror-Babeldaob (KB) Bridge in Palau, which had the record span of 241 m (791 ft.), presents a striking paradigm of serviceability loss due to excessive multi-decade deflections. The data required for analysis have recently been released and are here exploited to show how the analysis and design could be improved. Erected segmentally in 1977, thi...
