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...

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...

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...

PARTICLE SIZE AND DENSITY EFFECTS ON HEMP–LIME REINFORCEMENT EFFICIENCY

Hemp–lime composites are sustainable bio‑based materials with excellent hygrothermal performance and carbon sequestration potential, but their high porosity limits mechanical strength and broader use. This study examines the influence of fiberglass mesh reinforcement on the compressive behavior of hemp–lime composites with different par...

SEIZMIČKA ANALIZA AB KONSTRUKCIJE SA ZIDOVIMA PREMA NOVOJ GENERACIJI EVROKODA 8

U okviru ovog rada na jednostavan i pregledan način, kroz konkretan primer, prikazano je poređenje seizmičkog proračuna primenom važećeg i nacrta novog seta Evrokodova 2027, kako bi se jasno uočile izmene u projektovanju i njihov stvarni uticaj na obim proračuna i na krajnje rezultate dimenzionisanja. Ovakvo poređenje može biti korisno u upoznavanj...

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 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...

PROBABILISTIC ASSESSMENT OF AN EXISTING REINFORCED CONCRETE BRIDGE

This study presents a probabilistic assessment of an existing four-span reinforced concrete slab bridge, considering the stochastic variations of concrete strength and the yield strength of reinforcement steel. Although Eurocode permits probabilistic assessment of existing bridges, it provides limited practical guidance. Bending and shear limit-sta...

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...
