In this work the strength and the stiffness (EI) of wood-concrete composite beams with cross section T for two types of connection (bonded with epoxy and fixed by pre-drilling without adhesive) made by steel dowels, with ...

In this study, the strength and stiffness (EI) of wood-concrete composite beams for bridges with T-shaped cross section were evaluated. Two types of connectors were used: connectors bonded with epoxy adhesive and connectors ...

This paper presents an analysis of design guidelines for steel-concrete composite beams, formed by concrete-filled cold-formed steel sections. The study is based on experimental results for connector resistance (push-out) ...

This work proposes a methodology for non destructive testing (NDT) of reinforced concrete structures, using superficial magnetic fields and artificial neural networks, in order to identify the size and position of steel ...

Factors such as project and execution errors, lack of maintenance and inspection, and increases in loading can cause deficiencies to reinforced concrete structures. In this regard, there is the necessity of the application ...

This report investigates the structural behavior, procedures for analysis and design of externally prestressed steel-concrete composite beams. Based upon the requirements outlined in ABNT NRB 8800:2008 for conventional ...
