Load and resistance factor design of shallow foundations for bridges
… in design parameters for ultimate and serviceability limit states are evaluated. A random field model is employed to investigate the combined inherent spatial variability and systematic error for serviceability limit state. Advanced first order second moment method is then used to …

Flexural Behaviour of Concrete Beams with High Strength Reinforcement
… A23.3:19 “Design of Concrete Structures” limits the maximum yield strength for design to 500 MPa. This thesis investigates the flexural behavior of concrete beams reinforced with HSR to assess whether current code provisions are appropriate. Curvature ductility ratios are calculated for …

Timber shear walls for a sustainable build future
… the first part is related to the ultimate and serviceability limit states rules to be included in upcoming versions of the building codes, while the second part presents a novel use of CLT walls as seismic renovation for existing buildings, as part of a European project. The first part of the …

Design for Serviceability - A probabilistic approach
… performance of structures is defined by serviceability requirements. To estimate the probability of serviceability failure three main design aspects should be considered: (1) the relevant exposures, (2) the structural response and (3) the performance criteria. This thesis presents …

Fatigue Behaviour of CFRP Strengthened Reinforced Concrete Beams
… not only reduces load carrying capacity and serviceability limit states (SLS), but it can cause structural failure even when the components are subjected to low stress range cyclic loading. Corrosion damage exacerbates fatigue related problems as chloride induced pitting corrosion facilitates …

Lateral Spreading Mechanics of Column-Supported Embankments
… are not available. This research examines the limitations in CSE lateral spreading design with the goal of advancing fundamental understanding of lateral spreading mechanics. The research was performed using three-dimensional finite difference analyses. Limiting conditions for lateral spreading …

Experimentelle Untersuchungen zur Verformungsakkumulation und Tragfähigkeitsreduktion von zyklisch belasteten Pfählen
… design the piles for both the ultimate and the serviceability limit states, the transient loads resulting from wind and waves are often converted into an intended “equivalent”, usually sinusoidal, cyclic loading with constant amplitude and a lower number of cycles. However, this approach …
