This paper presents a theoretical and experimental analysis of socket base connections of precast concrete structures with regard to the behavior of transverse walls. The experimental program included seven specimens, for ...

The localized settlement of columns in large metal industrial buildings induces out-of-plane displacements of side walls of the same order as the settlement, which may affect service conditions in the building. For a ...

A series of Molecular Dynamics simulations of thermal spikes has been run in zircon. For two different ensembles: microcanonical one and a combination of microcanonical one acting on the simulation core with Langevin one ...

The recommendations of the Argentinean code of practice CIRSOC 102 concerning wind loads on enclosed buildings with curved roofs are identical to those of ASCE 7, which are based on results published in 1914. Significant ...

This paper reports on an experimental program for measuring shrinkage of concrete masonry units and walls. Tests were carried out on blocks of 4.5, 8.0 and 14.0N/mm2 strengths (with respect to gross area); different suppliers ...
