      Text en actes de congrés
      Accés restringit per política de l'editorial
      The use of fibres as main reinforcement for concrete pipes is recognized as an attractive alternative to the steel bars especially for smaller diameters. Nevertheless, the use of fibre reinforcement has not been consolidated ...

    • Design of FRC tunnel segments considering the ductility requirements of the MC-2010: application to the Barcelona Metro Line 9 

      Fuente Antequera, Albert de la; Liao, Lin; Pialarissi Cavalaro, Sergio Henrique; Aguado de Cea, Antonio (American Concrete Institute (ACI), 2014)
      Text en actes de congrés
      Accés restringit per política de l'editorial
      There are many advantages when using FRC in the manufacturing of segmental linings of tunnels built by means of a Tunnel Boring Machine (TBM). The use of steel fibre reinforced concrete (SFRC) improves, on the one hand, ...

    • Monolithic concrete off-shore floating sturcture for wind turbines 

      Molins i Borrell, Climent; Campos Hortigüela, Alexis; Sandner, Frank; Matha, Denis (European Wind Energy Association (EWEA), 2014)
      Text en actes de congrés
      Accés restringit per política de l'editorial
      A new concept of a SPAR floating platform is being developed in the KIC-Innoenergy project AFOSP (Alternative Floating Platform Designs for Offshore Wind Turbines using Low Cost Materials). Members of the consortium are ...

    • Ferritic stainless steel composite slabs : Experimental study of longitudinal shear transfer 

      Ferrer Ballester, Miquel; Marimón Carvajal, Federico; Arrayago Luquin, Itsaso; Mirambell Arrizabalaga, Enrique (2014)
      Text en actes de congrés
      Accés restringit per política de l'editorial
      The objective of this work is to carry out the procedure described in Eurocode 4 to evaluate the longitudinal shear transfer capability of conventional steel sheeting open-rib profile with embossments, usually rolled in ...

    • LIfe-cycle management of bridges based on robustness to deterioration 

      Casas Rius, Joan Ramon (2014)
      Text en actes de congrés
      Accés restringit per política de l'editorial
      In this paper a framework for assessing the robustness of existing reinforced concrete structures under corrosion is presented. Robustness is defined as a structural property related to the tolerance to damage and is ...

    • Actualización del riesgo sísmico de puentes existentes mediante monitorización estructural 

      Soriano Chacón, Miriam; Casas Rius, Joan Ramon (Ministerio de Obras Públicas de Chile, 2014)
      Text en actes de congrés
      Accés restringit per política de l'editorial
      The present paper presents a theoretical study of the advanced assessment implementation methodology through the application of a Structural Health Monitoring system (SHM) to update the level of seismic risk of existing ...

    • Assessment of structural damage in historical constructions using numerical models : the case of the church of the Poblet Monastery
