Probabilistic Assessment of Seismic Risk of Barcelona, Spain, using the CAPRA Platform
Description :
The Comprehensive Approach for Probabilistic Risk Assessment (CAPRA), is a robust methodology for modeling risk which allows identifying the most important aspects of catastrophes. CAPRA performs the evaluation of losses of the exposed elements using probabilistic metrics, such as the loss exceedanc...

Classifying Key Risk Factors in Construction Projects
Author(s) :
Pejman Rezakhani
Description :
Risk management is an important step in project success. It is the process of identifying, classifying, analysing and assessing of inherent risks in a project. Due to the nature of the construction projects which consists of many related and none-related operations, many risk factors will contribute...

Slenderness Parameters of Steel Elements
Description :
A modality to establish the plate slenderness parameters for plates which are used in compression and bending elements is presented. The reserve of post-buckling resistance of the thin plates is taken into account in the establishing of the steel plate slenderness.

Longitudinal Stiffness Characteristics of Unidirectional Fibre Reinforced Polymeric Composites Subjected to Tension
Description :
Unidirectional fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) composite elements are utilized nowadays as reinforcing bars for concrete members or for externally bonded laminates applied on the tension side of reinforced concrete beams in the so called plate bonding strengthening technique. Since these composite pr...

Thermal Conductivity Measurement of Construction Materials Using the Thermal Probe Method
Author(s) :
Vasile Strâmbu
Description :
The thermal probe method is a direct and reliable method of measurement, used for establishing the thermal conductivity of soft soils and rocks. The simplicity of the device used for measurement and the fact that it doesn’t alter the local properties of the material, enables this method to be applie...

Night Radiation Effect on Energy Performance of Ventilated Façades
Author(s) :
Claudiu Romila
Description :
Ventilated façades systems are more and more used for thermal rehabilitation of existing buildings. Their energy performance depends on many parameters, whose influence can be quantified by numerical and analytical models. When designing ventilated façades, the cooling effect of the night sky cannot...

Experimental Study on Two Way Reinforced Concrete Slabs with or without Openings Strengthened with Composite Strips. A: Experimental Setup
Description :
This paper presents the investigation on the feasibility of strengthening reinforced concrete (RC) slabs in flexure, with or without openings, using carbon fibres reinforced polymer (CFRP) strips bonded on the tensioned side of the slab. There are investigated two series of slabs. The first series r...

State of the Art for Strengthening Masonry with Fibre Reinforced Polymers
Author(s) :
Cristina E. Lanivschi
Description :
This paper addresses the modern strengthening techniques used for improving the earthquaqe behaviour of masonry structures, by aid of fibre reinforced polymers (FRP). These type of materials play an important role in the process of overtaking the tensile stresses which masonry by itself is not capab...

Consolidation of Steel Plate Girders. Application of Eurocodes
Description :
In this paper we focus on the design basis concerning the steel plate girder consolidation. This consolidation is achieved by adding a supplementary plate to one flange or plates to both flanges, which results in an increase of the resistance characteristics and of the bending resistance. The desig...
