WIND TUNNEL STUDY OF WIND-INDUCED LOADING ON AN ISOLATED SOLAR PANEL

Solar panels (SPs) are designed to withstand wind-induced loading, characterised by varying wind speeds and directions, as well as high turbulence. This paper examines force coefficient statistics—mean, standard deviation, 3-s gust and peak values—on an isolated SP model, using data from an experimental campaign conducted in the atmosph...

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE OF BRIDGE DRAINAGE SYSTEMS ALONG THE SAVA RIVER IN BELGRADE

This paper assesses the operational performance of drainage systems on four road bridges over the Sava River in Belgrade: Branko’s, Gazela, Ada Ciganlija, and Ostružnica. Field inspections identified deficiencies related to original design, subsequent modifications, ageing drainage infrastructure, structural and pavement deformations, and ina...

PRECAST INFILLED FRAMES: CIRCULAR SOLUTION FOR SEISMIC-RESILIENT BUILDINGS

Within the ongoing EU-funded CIRC-BOOST project (call CL6-2022-CIRCBIO-02-01), Faculty of Civil Engineering in Belgrade, together with its partners, is developing the house concept that follows the core principles of circular economy and is designed to be functional, structurally stable, and seismic-resilient. An important structural component of t...

DEMOUNTABLE COMPOSITE FLOOR SYSTEMS: A STATE-OF-THE-ART REVIEW

Demountable and reusable construction systems are increasingly recognized for supporting sustainability and circular economy principles by enabling disassembly, reuse, and reduced waste compared to conventional monolithic solutions. This paper presents a state-of-the-art review of demountable and reusable steel-concrete composite structures, summar...

CHALLENGES OF STRUCTURAL DESIGN IN SEISMIC REGIONS: EXAMPLES FROM TWO CASE STUDIES

This paper presents two building projects in seismic regions: Project A (Italy) and Project B (Middle East). It examines challenges in aligning architectural intent, client expectations, regulations, and seismic performance throughout design. Project A, designed to Italian NTC18, adopted an elastic design approach due to architectural constraints l...

Rad prikazuje postupak projektovanja i izvođenja armiranobetonskih (AB) konstrukcija sa zidanom ispunom u skladu sa zahtevima prve i druge generacije Evrokoda 8. Poseban fokus je na razumevanju interakcije između nosećeg AB sistema i ispune, uticaja ispune na promenu krutosti a samim tim i perioda oscilovanja konstrukcije, kao i na razlikama u pris...

This paper presents the development of an innovative steel-cross laminated timber (steel-CLT) shear connector designed for efficient shear transfer. The structural performance and mechanical behaviour of the proposed system were comprehensively evaluated through experimental testing and numerical modelling. Push-out tests were conducted to evaluate...

This paper presents the key results of a comprehensive experimental, numerical and analytical study of concrete with a high limestone powder content. The testing programme covered all aspects, from mix design, through mechanical properties and durability parameters, to the behaviour of real-scale RC beams under sustained loading over 1000 days, inc...

Current seismic building codes aim to protect life safety by allowing controlled damage to lateral-load-resisting systems. Although this approach prevents collapse, buildings may remain unusable and impose significant consequences on communities and infrastructure. Resilience-based seismic design seeks to reduce these impacts, yet challenges remain...
