  1. 6. Development of connections for fibre reinforced bridge elements and an analysis of sustainability

    Författare :Valbona Mara; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; bridge; insert; connection; deck; FRP; bolt; joint; fibre reinforced polymer; LCC; LCA;

    Sammanfattning : The deterioration of existing bridge structures due to a number of causes has led researchersto pursue new construction materials with high performance, such as fibre reinforced polymer(FRP) composite materials. The inherent properties of FRP materials are their light weight,high strength and high resistance to aggressive environments. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Stress-laminated-timber bridge decks subjected to ultimate loads

    Författare :Kristoffer K J Ekholm; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Ultimate-load tests; Stress-laminated timber; Timber bridges;

    Sammanfattning : Stress-laminated-timber (SLT) bridge decks are a satisfactory alternative to conventional short-span bridges in terms of cost and performance. SLT decks are made from several deck laminations positioned side by side. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Bracing of steel bridges during construction; theory, full-scale tests and simulations

    Författare :Hassan Mehri; Avdelningen för Konstruktionsteknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Bracing; steel-concrete composite; steel; bridge; test; construction; laboratory; experiment; experimental; theory;

    Sammanfattning : A number of steel bridges have suffered lateral-torsional failure during their construction due to their lacking adequate lateral and/or rotational stiffness. In most cases, slight bracing can be of great benefit to the main girders involved through their controlling out-of-plane deformations and enabling the resistance that is needed to be achieved.

  5. 9. Testing and finite element modeling of wooden stairs and bridge decks

    Författare :Anna Pousette; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Träteknik; Wood Technology;

    Sammanfattning : Development of new products in the joinery industry has traditionally been based on testing of prototypes. Computer-aided design tools and finite element analysis can supplement traditional prototype testing and improve the product development process. LÄS MER

  7. 10. Mechanisms of Blister Formation on Concrete Bridge Decks with Waterprooving Asphalt Pavement Systems

    Författare :Biruk Wobeshet Hailesilassie; Björn Birgisson; Lars-Olof Nilsson; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; blister growth; PBM waterproofing membrane; orthotropic material; biaxial test; peeling test; elliptical blister growth;

    Sammanfattning : Bridge decks are commonly subjected to harsh environmental conditions that often lead to serious corrosion problems triggered by blisters under the hot mix asphalt bridge deck surfacing and secretly evolving during weather exposure until damage is often detected too late. Blisters may form under both the waterproofing dense mastic asphalt layer or under the waterproofing membrane which is often applied as additional water protection under the mastic asphalt (MA).
