A novel approach to residual stiffness analysis of flexural concrete elements with composite reinforcement
(IABSE symposium. Guimaraes 2019. Towards a resilient built environment - Risk and asset management, March 27-29, 2019, Guimaraes, Portugal, 2019)This study introduces a simplified tension-stiffening approach for the flexural stiffness analysis. It employs a new testing layout designed with the purpose to form multiple cracks in a small laboratory specimen. The ... -
Crack spacing model for FRP reinforced concrete beams based on stress-transfer approach
(IABSE symposium. Guimarães 2019. Towards a resilient built environment - Risk and asset management, March 27-29, 2019, Guimarães, Portugal, 2019)The present study develops a mean crack spacing model for fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) reinforced concrete (FRP-RC) beams. The proposed model is based on stress-transfer approach and compatibility of mean strain in the ... -
Deformation and cracking behaviour of concrete beams reinforced with glass fibre-reinforced polymer bars
(IABSE Symposium. Guimarães 2019. Towards a resilient built environment - Risk and asset management, March 27-29, 2019, Guimarães, Portugal, 2019)This paper reports the experimental and numerical studies of concrete beams reinforced with glass fibre-reinforced polymer (GFRP) reinforcing bars with and without the addition of steel fibres. GFRPreinforced concrete beam ... -
Investigation of damage in concrete columns under variable loading
(IABSE Symposium, Lisbon, 2005 : Structures and Extreme Events : report. Vol. 90, 2005)Accumulation of the global and the local damage under combined loading consisting of constant longitudinal and transverse cyclic loads in reinforced high-strength concrete columns is experimentally investigated. Two identical ... -

New type of communication guyed masts and analysis of its behavior
(IABSE Symposium, Shanghai, 2004 : Metropolitan habitats and infrastructure : report. Vol. 88, 2004)An original steel mast structure, in which combined guys with branches are used instead of ordinary continuous ones, is discussed in this paper. Behaviour of ordinary and combined guys is analyzed taking in to account ... -
New type of communication guyed masts and analysis of its behavior
(IABSE Symposium, Shanghai, 2004 : Metropolitan habitats and infrastructure : report. Vol. 88, 2004)Different in height and type ot structure, the guyed masts make-up a fair part of telecommunication structures. These structures are the most effective ones of tall telecommunication structures. The behavior and analysis ... -
On reliability of spun RC poles for power lines under extreme actions
(Structures and extreme events : IABSE Symposium, Lisbon, Portugal, September 14-17, 2005 : report / organized by Portuguese Group of IABSE (APEE) and National Laboratory for Civil Engineering (LNEC), 2005)The extreme events which arc likely to occur for poles of power transmission lines during severe wind and ice storms are considered. The structural and durability performance of prestrcsscd spun (centrifugally cast) concrete ... -
Precast spun concrete piers of road bridges and their probability-based design
(34th IABSE Symposium on Large Structures and Infrastructures for Evironmentally Constrained and Urbanised Areas, Venice, Italy, September 22-24, 2010 : report / International Association for Bridge and Structural Engineering, 2010)The usability of precast spun concrete members of annular cross-sections as pier shafts for road bridges and footbridges is discussed. First and second order load effects for shafts of braced and bracing piers are analysed. ... -

Pressure vessel explosions inside buildings
(Structural Engineering International : Journal of the International Association for Bridge and Structural Engineering, 2003)A methodological framework of assessing damage of buildings caused by accidental pressure vessel explosions is presented. It is proposed to assess the damage using a stochastic simulation of actions imposed by these ... -
Susspension string future structure
(IABSE Symposium "Synergy of culture and civil engineering – history and challenges", 7-9 October 2020, Wroclaw University of Technology, Poland, 2020)In the first part of the article discusses about kinematic displacements problem in cable structures. More attention is paid to one-span suspension structures. The main advantages and disadvantages of such constructions ...
