Applicability of small strain stiffness parameters for pile settlement calculation
(Procedia Engineering, 2017)This study presents the importance of using advanced constitutive soil models in numerical modelling as a daily geotechnical practice. Back-calculated stiffness from observations of the soil deformations in-situ very often ... -
Designing of blast resistant lightweight elevation system - numerical study
(Procedia Engineering, 2017)In recent times, the designing of the blast resistant lightweight elevation systems has become an important engineering issue. It is clear that such structures do not fit any commonly known standards, thus designing process ... -
Line of approach to a problem of water resistance of anhydrite cements
(Procedia Engineering, 2017)In the present paper the experimental research dedicated to derivation of anhydrite cements with upgraded mechanical, physical properties and water resistance. The mechanism of the influence of technogenic fine-dispersed ... -
Effect of water glass on early hardening of Portland cement
(Procedia Engineering, 2017)In spite of extensive literature devoted to the use of water glass as an additive to Portland cement, there is no practical data concerning the influence of its small amounts on cement hardening and mechanical strength. ... -
Reducing variability of workforce as a tool to improve plan reliability
(Procedia Engineering, 2017)Variability of flow is recognized as one of the greatest obstacles to production management. Since the work flow and labour flow are two dominators of work performance, it is important to manage them simultaneously. The ... -
Fire-stop wraps and collars with intumescent materials – performance comparison
(Procedia Engineering, 2017)In the event of a fire in building, the places where installations penetrate may be the ones where the fire easily enters adjacent rooms. Therefore, in locations where pipes divide requiring a certain fire resistance ... -
Influence of elevated temperature on load bearing capacity of reinforced fine-grained concrete
(Procedia Engineering, 2017)The paper presents an analysis of elevated temperature influence on the load bearing capacity of rectangular doubly-reinforced concrete cross-sections. The numerical analysis was carried out basing on authors’ experiments ... -
Correlation between numerical and experimental tests of laminated glass panels with visco-elastic interlayer
(Procedia Engineering, 2017)Present research is focused on numerical and experimental investigation of glass laminate structure consolidated with ethylene vinyl acetate film. The European wide industry standard for laminate glass panels is considered ... -
Comparison of material properties of lightweight concrete with recycled polyethylene and expanded clay aggregates
(Procedia Engineering, 2017)The article discusses the possibility of using high and low density polyethylene waste as aggregate in lightweight concrete with high strength cement mortar. Research is dedicated to experimental investigation and comparison ... -
Experimental identification of cracking parameters of concrete ties with different reinforcement and testing layouts
(Procedia Engineering, 2017)Despite a seeming simplicity of the direct tensile test layout, analysis of sources of scatter of the experimental results on cracking and deformations of reinforced concrete ties inspired the authors to investigate ... -
Cracking in flexural reinforced concrete members
(Procedia Engineering, 2017)The system of cracks developing in reinforced concrete is in many aspects essential when modelling structures in both serviceability- and ultimate limit state. This paper discusses the behavior concerning crack development ... -
Modelling soil particles by low-resolution spherical harmonics
(Procedia Engineering, 2017)The paper addresses the applicability of spherical harmonics (SH) technique to describe particles shape. It is aimed to demonstrate basic features of the low-resolution spherical harmonics limited by the expansion degree ... -
Different approaches to building management and maintenance meaning explanation
(Procedia Engineering, 2017)The present paper examines the connection between building and property management and building management system. It provides an insight into the concept of building management. Building management is a particular economic ... -
Evaluation of low temperature properties of rubberized asphalt mixtures
(Procedia Engineering, 2017)The paper presents low-temperature test results of asphalt mixtures designed with use of bitumen modified by crumb rubber and also SBS polymer. Laboratory tests were conducted on two types of asphalt mixtures for wearing ... -
Selected physical properties of concrete modified using mineral powders
(Procedia Engineering, 2017)The article presents the results of research that focused on the selected physical properties of concrete modified using mineral powders. The influence of replacing part of the cement on the physical properties of concrete ... -
Research in redistribution of bending moments in the beams of reinforced concrete early loaded
(Procedia Engineering, 2017)This paper presents results of a study of a reinforced concrete beam, simulating a double-span beam, early loaded. The beam was designed with limited redistribution of bending moments from the support to the span. The ... -
Buckling and post-buckling of prestressed stainless steel stayed columns
(Procedia Engineering, 2017)Prestressed stayed compression members are frequently required as very slender load-bearing structural components by both investors and architects. Behavior of these members depends on their geometrical and material ... -
