Lange overspanningen in geprefabriceerd beton: Een onderzoek naar brugoplossingen om langere overspanningen, tot 100 meter, mogelijk te maken in geprefabriceerd beton

The Netherlands is a densely populated country with a congested road and railway network. Therefore more and more highways are widened and expanded. These wider highways create a demand for bridges which are suited for longer spans. These bridge solutions should constructed with a minimum of hindrance for other traffic. Rijkswaterstaat, also...

Torsion in ZIP bridge system

In skew bridges torsion occurs. This leads to a substantial amount of reinforcement stirrups. Minalu already did research to torsion in bridge decks with different types of finite element models. The question when torsion cracks will really occur is still unanswered. This question is the main subject of this research. The focus of the research...
