Seismic Retrofit of Square Reinforced Concrete Bridge Columns using Titanium Alloy Bars

Creator:

Shrestha, Sharoo

Abstract:

There are many aging bridges in service in the US and around the world that were not constructed to modern seismic design codes and standards. As a result, they are expected to perform poorly during intense earthquake ground shaking. Older reinforced concrete (RC) bridges, in particular, are often supported on...

The Fundamental Behavior of Timber-Concrete Composite Floors in Fire

Creator:

Shephard, Annabel B.

Abstract:

Timber-concrete composite (TCC) floors have improved strength and stiffness when compared to timber-only floors, allowing for longer spans in buildings and improved life safety. However, North America does not have codes and standards that recognize TCC floors, particularly the improved life safety performance of these floors in fire. Therefore, alternate...

Multi-Scale Dynamic Monitoring and Behavior of Cross-Laminated Timber Elements and Systems

Creator:

Mugabo, Ignace

Abstract:

Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT) is one of the latest engineered wood products to show promising structural features for a variety of structural purposes including resisting lateral loads. For CLT to be widely adopted, its modal behavior needs to be fully evaluated through experimental and numerical methods. It is important to the...
