The increasing environmental impact of cement production has driven the search for sustainable supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs). The incorporation of ceramic waste tile powder (CWTP) as a partial cement replacement in concrete and mortar has proven to be significant for durability and related properties improvement, enhancing the microst...

Artificial intelligence (AI) is emerging as a powerful tool in structural engineering, enabling data-driven alternatives to traditional analytical and numerical methods. In steel structures, AI has been applied to design optimisation, structural health monitoring, and reliability assessment; however, its application to modelling nonlinear joint beh...

Stari grad Bjelaj (Bilaj), smješten u blizini Bosanskog Petrovca, predstavlja kompleksan fortifikacijski sklop sa slojevima prahistorijskog, srednjovjekovnog i osmanskog graditeljskog nasljeđa. Prema postojećim podacima, bedemi su građeni od lomljenog kamena zidanog u krečnom malteru, pri čemu su danas vidljiva značajna oštećenja nast...

Broadway Subway Project u Vankuveru obuhvata izgradnju 5.7 km produženja metro linije sa više podzemnih stanica ispod jedne od najopterećenijih urbanih saobraćajnica. Duboki iskopi do približno 24 m, ograničen prostor, intenzivan saobraćaj i brojna komunalna infrastruktura predstavljali su ključne inženjerske izazove. Razvijen je modularni s...

This paper reviews the structural behaviour of perforated elements subjected to bending, with particular emphasis on the Vierendeel failure, which governs the resistance of these members. The stress distribution around web openings and the development of the Vierendeel failure mechanism are examined using experimental observations and finite elemen...

A first in France: waterproofing of a rehabilitated highway Viaduct using Ultra-High Performance Fiber-Reinforced Concrete (UHPFRC). The rehabilitation of the Viaduct above Saône canal, on the A36 highway in France, provided an opportunity to implement an innovative waterproofing solution for a road bridge, based on the use of UHPFRC. The bri...

This paper presents an analysis of consolidation settlement and consolidation time due to the construction of a road embankment on the Kratovska Stena–Lučani section. The study was performed for three representative sections between bridge structures, considering different embankment heights and subsoil improvement options. The analysed cases...

This paper investigates the effect of a haunch on the ultimate capacity and lateral stiffness of a single-bay, two-hinged, unbraced steel frame subjected to gravity loading and a concentrated lateral force. For the frame without haunches, analytical and numerical analyses were carried out using beam and shell finite elements, whereas the identical ...

Before any strengthening, repair, reconstruction or adaptation of an existing structure can begin, engineers face one of the most demanding tasks in practice: establishing its true condition. Structural assessment is far more than a routine inspection - it is an investigative process combining field observation, testing, material science, structura...

This paper analyses the seismic behaviour of a RC building with a tunnel structural system under seismic loading. This system is increasingly used in modern construction due to spatial rigidity and rapid construction; however, strong earthquakes, such as the one in Türkiye in 2023, have shown that even such buildings can sustain significant da...
