THE USE OF STRUCTURAL STEEL IN BUILDING

This type of joint is designed for to be placed by a remote operator eliminating the need for an ironworker to make the connection (Viscomi, Michalerya and Lu, 1994). This concept could be used for many secondary bri[r]

The intensified use of machines with several degrees of freedom has paved the way to new fields of operation for the wood processing companies, also beyond the construction wood sector, whereby new sales[r]

buckling stresses are determined by replacing the perforated part of the web with plain plate of equivalent thickness. The effective area approach is used to consider local and distortional buckling. Comparison between the test results for short columns and the corresponding predictions shows that t[r]

Hightech architecture, also known as Late Modernism or Structural Expressionism, is an architectural style that emerged in the 1970s, incorporating elements of hightech industry and technology into building design. Hightech architecture appeared as a revamped modernism, an extension of t[r]

Your safety depends first and foremost on the buildings where you spend most ofyour time. Most important of all is your home. If the building where you live isstrongly built and, best of all, designed by an engineer to resist earthquakes, thenthe chances of your building collapsing or suffering sever[r]

While in most cases the primary reason we enhance the performanceof a facade is to protect occupants, we gain protection for the structure as well.Blast shock fronts that are not repelled by the facade will advance i[r]
