EC - Enginyeria de la Construcció
El grup se centra en el cicle de vida de grans projectes d'infraestructures civils modernes des d'una perspectiva global, que implica la planificació; disseny; construcció; vida útil i explotació; manteniment i desmuntatge i el reciclatge, tenint en compte aspectes econòmics, socials, ambientals, de qualitat i de salut i seguretat. Aquest grup té una perspectiva global i objectius per desenvolupar mètodes i tecnologies de gestió que es poden aplicar a qualsevol infraestructura civil com ara carreteres, línies ferroviàries, ponts, preses, canals, túnels, estructures subterrànies i edificis civils.

Improving the resolution and accuracy of low-cost Arduino-based accelerometers
(2023)
Conference report
Open AccessAn increasing number of researchers are working on Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) applications. However, the high price of traditional commercial accelerometers is known to be one of the significant drawbacks of SHM ... -
A novel low-cost inclinometer sensor based on fusion technology for structural health monitoring applications
(2023)
Conference report
Open AccessThe fundamental purpose of structural health monitoring (SHM) is to examine the accuracy of the structural health state and predict its future strength. Lately, researchers have been paying close attention to the structural ... -
A review on low-cost sensors compatible with open-source platforms used for life-cycle monitoring of civil structures
(2023)
Conference report
Open AccessLately, the need for adopting sensors in buildings and infrastructures for monitoring and inspection of the health state of those structures is increasing. This demand is due to the increasing age of the structural stock ... -
Laboratory validation of an Arduino based accelerometer designed for SHM applications
(CRC Press, 2023)
Conference report
Open AccessNowadays, low-cost sensors based on low-cost microcontrollers and microprocessors are gaining a lot of attention from researchers. This increasing interest is due to the fact that the implementation of low-cost solutions ... -
Experimental characterization of concrete-to-concrete interface shear strength design-oriented constitutive parameters
(Elsevier, 2023-09)
Article
Open AccessIn concrete composite systems, the shear strength between concrete layers cast at different times determines the mechanical performance of the structure. Different mechanisms are identified as potential shear–transfer ... -
Utilization of ultra-fine dredged sand from the Yangtze River in alkali-activated slag/fly ash mortars: mechanical properties, drying shrinkage and microstructure
(Elsevier, 2023-12)
Article
Open AccessThe ultra-fine dredged sand (DS) from the lower reaches of the Yangtze River is a large amount of solid waste with the potential to be recycled and applied as a replacement for fine aggregate. This article discussed the ... -
Integration of BIM and Value Model for Sustainability Assessment for application in bridge projects
(Elsevier, 2023-08)
Article
Open AccessThe integration of multicriteria decision-making (MCDM) methods with building information modeling (BIM) provides robust support for decision-making when assessing the sustainability of construction projects. Among the ... -
Inspection and assessment of PT structures: results from application to an existing bridge
(Taylor & Francis Group, 2023)
Conference report
Open AccessPre-stressed concrete with post-tensioned (PT) cables historically represented an attractive alternative to ordinary reinforced concrete (RC). A wide portion of the world-wide existing concrete bridges was PT. As the nominal ... -
Cement composite panels reinforced with textile waste and flax nonwoven fabrics: flexural and accelerated aging performance
(2023)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyTowards more eco-friendly building materials, nonwoven fabrics from natural-based (flax) and recycled (textile waste) fibers were produced and incorporated into the cementitious composite panels. The textile waste fibers ... -

Conference report
Open AccessLa determininación del módulo de elasticidad del hormigón de presas es difiícil tanto en medidas directas en la presa como mediante probetas, ya que se requieren ensayos con probetas de gran dimensión y, consecuentemente, ... -
Temperature effects removal from non-stationary bridge–vehicle interaction signals for ML damage detection
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2023-06)
Article
Open AccessBridges are vital components of transport infrastructures, and therefore, it is of utmost importance that they operate safely and reliably. This paper proposes and tests a methodology for detecting and localizing damage ... -
Finite element analysis characterization of macro synthetic fibre reinforced concrete constitutive equation
(Springer, 2021)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyOver the last years, the use of fibre reinforced concrete (FRC) has increased for structural purposes. For the structural design of FRC elements, there was a need of a model that developed the behaviour of the post-cracking ...
