Mechanical properties of fiber reinforced concrete at low temperatures
(Springer, 2023-03-11)
Part of book or chapter of book
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe existing literature proves that the mechanical performance of fiber reinforced concrete (FRC) is sensitive to elevated temperatures, this being dependent on the type and amount of fibers. However, the majority of studies ... -
Damage identification in concrete bridges using unmanned aerial vehicles and neural networks
(Springer, 2025)
Part of book or chapter of book
Restricted access - publisher's policyBridge monitoring systems using cameras and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) are increasingly being used worldwide. Additionally, artificial intelligence techniques are being used to improve performance in the structural ... -
Implementation of a low-cost structural health monitoring system for bridges in Peru
(Springer, 2025)
Part of book or chapter of book
Restricted access - publisher's policyStructural health is important especially in older bridges that were designed without earthquake resistant design. Therefore, it is proposed to use wireless accelerometers with environmental temperature and humidity sensors, ... -
Comparative study of seismic performance of SLB, TADAS and viscous fluid energy dissipators in hospitals
(Springer, 2024)
Part of book or chapter of book
Restricted access - publisher's policyStructural damage not only causes material losses but also human losses, especially in the case of essential buildings such as health facilities, as they must ensure the provision of medical services during and after an ... -
Integrating smartphone-based sensors for structural health monitoring in engineering education
(Dykinson, 2024)
Part of book or chapter of book
Restricted access - publisher's policyThis project explores the integration of smartphone-based sensors into the curriculum of structural health monitoring (SHM) within an engineering education context. Leveraging the ubiquity and sensor capabilities of ... -
Long-term deformation of structural recycled aggregate concrete
(International Association for Bridge and Structural Engineering, 2024)
Part of book or chapter of book
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe deformation of concrete structures in service is a very complex issue for modelling, control and prediction due to a large number of influencing factors, and uncertainties associated with these factors [2,3]. An important ... -
A discussion on the reliability of prEN1992-1-1:2021 shear strength provisions for fibre reinforced concrete members without shear reinforcement
(Springer, 2023)
Part of book or chapter of book
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe Eurocode 2 for the design of concrete structures (EN1992-1-1:2004) is undergoing a revision that will lead to the publication of the second generation of this code to be used across all CEN member countries. Therefore, ... -
Reliability of shear strength models for fibre reinforced concrete members without shear reinforcement
(Springer, 2021)
Part of book or chapter of book
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe scope and amount of fibre reinforced concrete (FRC) structural applications have seen significant increases. This means that safe and reliable ultimate limit state (ULS) models are necessary for FRC structural members. ... -
Short and long term behaviour of polypropylene fibre reinforced concrete beams with minimum steel reinforcement
(Springer, 2021)
Part of book or chapter of book
Restricted access - publisher's policyFibre reinforced concrete (FRC) has quickly become an attractive solution for increasing both the mechanical performance and sustainability of concrete structures. In particular, polymeric fibres are increasingly recognized ... -
Self-compacting steel fibre reinforced concrete: material characterization and real scale test up to failure of a pile supported flat slab
(Springer, 2022)
Part of book or chapter of book
Restricted access - publisher's policySteel Fibre Reinforced Concrete (SFRC) is increasingly being used in the construction industry providing structural, technological and economic benefits. However, this relatively new material has not demonstrated its full ... -
A new sustainability assessment method for façade cladding panels: a case study of fiber/textile reinforced cement sheets
(Springer, 2022)
Part of book or chapter of book
Restricted access - publisher's policyAs the building sector is one of the leading responsible for energy consumption and CO2 emissions, criteria of sustainability, availability, and recyclability should be considered for developing materials even in the ... -
Elevated steel fibre reinforced concrete slabs and the hybrid alternative: design approach and parametric study at ultimate limit state
(Springer, 2022)
Part of book or chapter of book
Restricted access - publisher's policyApplication of Fibre Reinforced Concrete (FRC) in pile supported flat slabs is definitely challenge in term of a structural application of this material. Possible substitution of traditional reinforcement by steel fibres ...
