Cross-laminated timber (CLT) floors are increasingly used in long-span buildings as a greener alternative to reinforced concrete, steel and their composites. Despite high stiffness, relatively low mass of CLT makes such floors prone to pedestrian-induced vibrations. While these vibrations do not threaten structural integrity and safety, they often ...

This paper presents an assessment of the condition of the reinforced concrete structure of the stadium grandstands after many years of service and proposes recommendations to ensure its safe continued operation. The research focuses on deterioration of concrete and reinforcement in elements of the primary and secondary structural systems, including...

Schedule performance is a central aspect of infrastructure project delivery, as changes in execution conditions and additional safety requirements may significantly alter schedule logic and extend the duration of critical activities, with organizational and financial consequences. This paper presents a case study of the dismantling of the Old Sava ...

This paper investigates the fatigue performance of a hybrid transitional joint in an I-girder stiffener using DED-Arc AM46 steel from a material and detail perspective. High-cycle fatigue (HCF) tests were performed on machined/polished specimens extracted in horizontal and vertical directions relative to the welding beads. The obtained results were...

The component method enables efficient design of steel joints by decomposing them into individual components characterized by their resistance and stiffness. This paper presents a machine learning-based approach for resistance prediction of the column web panel in transverse compression, based on a numerical dataset generated using IDEA StatiCa Con...

As many cable stayed bridges built in the 1960s reach the end of their original service life, replacing aging stay cable systems has become a major challenge for infrastructure owners. Corrosion, obsolete protection systems, and modern durability requirements drive the need to upgrade these structures with high performance cables. Freyssinet has de...

The reuse of precast reinforced concrete (RC) elements is an effective way to reduce the environmental impact of the construction industry. However, practical implementation remains limited by regulatory, technical, and market barriers. To facilitate reuse, the principles of design for deconstruction should be incorporated into precast structures. ...

This paper presents the main aspects of a comprehensive study of demountable steel-precast concrete connections consisting of a demountable bolt and embedded mechanical coupler with a rebar anchor. The study included experimental and numerical analysis of the connection under pure tension, pure shear, and combined shear and tension loading. The res...

In recent years, 3D concrete printing (3DCP) technology has found growing application in residential construction, from single and two-storey houses to apartment buildings. Nevertheless, the wider application of this technology is limited by the lack of established standards and design codes, the development of which requires a sufficiently large e...
