Main engineering problems and countermeasures in ultra-long-distance rock pipe jacking project: water pipeline case study in Chongqing
(2022-05)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThis paper summarises the main technical problems that have been encountered in the Chongqing Guanjingkou Water Conservancy Project, which is the first ultra-long-distance rock pipe jacking (PJ) project in China’s water ... -
Structural response of a fibre reinforced concrete pile-supported flat slab: full-scale test
(2021-07)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe total substitution of traditional reinforcement in the form of steel bars by fibres can be mainly found in elements with favourable boundary conditions and subjected to low-moderate load levels. However, the rigorous ... -
Marginal Hilbert spectrum and instantaneous phase difference as total damage indicators in bridges under operational traffic loads
(2021-10)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe challenges and future trends in the development of signal processing tools are being widely used for damage identification in bridges. Therefore, it is important to analyse the vibration signals in order to attain ... -
Determination of the complete stress-strain response of concrete under uniaxial compression
(2021-09)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe characterization of the complete uniaxial compressive stress-strain curve of concrete is crucial for a more rational and reliable design of concrete structures. However, without intrinsic knowledge of the influence of ... -
Bridge and transport network resilience: a perspective
(Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE), 2021-11)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyBridges and critical transport infrastructure are primary assets and systems that underpin human mobility and activities. Loss of bridge functionality has consequences on entire transport networks, which are also interconnected ... -
Cost-oriented analysis of fibre reinforced concrete column-supported flat slabs construction
(Elsevier, 2022-07)
Article
Open AccessFibre reinforced concrete (FRC) is increasingly being used in elements with high structural responsibility, the constructed FRC column-supported flat slabs (CSFSs, hereinafter) with partial or even total substitution of ... -
Design-oriented assessment of the residual post-fire bearing capacity of precast fiber reinforced concrete tunnel linings
(2022-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThis study presents a meso-scale experimental program and employs a numerical approach to determine the bearing capacity of steel fiber reinforced concretes (SFRC) tunnel linings after fire exposure. First, the effect of ... -
Direct simulation of the tensioning process of cable-stayed bridge cantilever construction
(2022-05)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe construction analysis of cable-stayed bridges plays a crucial role in the security of such structures because stresses and deflections attained during construction might exceed those in service. Although some commercial ... -
Low-cost sensors accuracy study and enhancement strategy
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2022-03)
Article
Open AccessToday, low-cost sensors in various civil engineering sectors are gaining the attention of researchers due to their reduced production cost and their applicability to multiple nodes. Low-cost sensors also have the advantage ... -
Effects of low temperatures on flexural strength of macro-synthetic fiber reinforced concrete: experimental and numerical investigation
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2022-02)
Article
Open AccessFiber-reinforced concrete (FRC) is an attractive alternative to traditional steel bar-reinforced concrete structures, as evidenced by the constantly increasing market consumption of structural fibers for this purpose. In ... -
Rotation and moment redistribution capacity of fiber-reinforced concrete beams: parametric analysis and code compliance
(2022-02)
Article
Open AccessFiber-reinforced concrete (FRC) has been proved to be a competitive solution for structural purposes. Extensive research has highlighted the benefits of adding fibers on the post-cracking strength, reduced crack spacing ... -
Bond deterioration effects on corroded RC bridge pier in seismic zone
(2022-02)
Article
Open AccessThe effects of corrosion focusing on the consequences of bond strength deterioration for a reinforced concrete bridge pier in a seismic affected area are examined in this research. A bond degradation model based on the ...
