Web buckling failure of built-up girders with rectangular holes

Creator:

Cato, Stuart Leslie

Abstract:

This thesis investigated the methods of failure in the webs of built up girders. The beams had rectangular holes five and one-half inches wide and seven and one-half inches high with rounded corners in a web fourteen inches deep between flanges. The longitudinal position of the hole edge varied from...

Masters Thesis
The effects of nail bending-yield stress and biological deterioration on the cyclic performance of shearwalls

Creator:

Anderson, Erin N.

Abstract:

Key parts of the lateral force resisting system in wood-frame buildings are the shearwafls and the connections. The connections in wooden buildings are the primary source of ductility and energy dissipation; these are essential properties when buildings are exposed to lateral forces, such as wind and earthquakes. Shearwall design is...

Masters Thesis
Testing and evaluation of flexural reinforcing bars terminating in columns

Creator:

Koester, Carl C.

Abstract:

Capacity of transverse 1950's vintage reinforced concrete deck girder bridge bent caps with large straight bar anchorages were investigated and evaluated. Eleven subassemblage column specimens were examined with different anchorage lengths, bar groupings, amount of transverse steel, and externally applied axial force. Test results showed an increase in anchorage capacity...

Strain distribution in OSB and GWB in wood frame shear walls

Creator:

Sinha, Arijit

Abstract:

The overall goal of this study was to gain an insight into the load sharing aspect between oriented strand board (OSB) and gypsum wall board (GWB) in shear wall assembly during racking load. More specifically the objectives of the study were to: (1) evaluate qualitatively the load sharing between OSB...

Masters Thesis
Static and cyclic response of ecoroof soil

Creator:

Kraupa, Travis J.

Abstract:

Green technology in the United States has been on the rise over the past few decades in the United States. However, certain green technologies have been developed in the absence of design standards. Ecoroofs, which are vegetated soil masses placed on the top of a building’s roof structure, present several...

Masters Thesis
Numerical method for calculating construction pore pressures in embankments

Creator:

Steward, John Erwin

Abstract:

A computer program was developed for estimating construction pore pressures in embankments without drainage at any location in the embankment at any time during construction. This program incorporated a modification of the Hilf-Brantz method of pore pressure calculation and a finite element method of stress computation. Previous methods of calculating...

Masters Thesis
Nonlinear dynamic analysis of cable and membrane structures

Creator:

Lo, Alain

Abstract:

The nonlinear dynamic analysis of cable and membrane structures is presented in this study. Attention is given to the nonlinearities arising from large displacements, from nonlinear stress-strain relationships and from nonconservative loadings. The finite element method is used to model the cables and membranes. Curvilinear geometries of the elements are...
