Belletti, B. (author), Damoni, C. (author), Hendriks, M.A.N. (author)Three years ago, the Dutch Ministry of Infrastructure and the Environment initiated a project to re-evaluate the carrying capacity of existing bridges and viaducts (e.g. reinforced and pre-stressed concrete beams and slabs). Due to the increase of traffic and the reallocation of emergency lanes to traffic lanes, the safety verification of some...conference paper 2013

Belletti, B. (author), Damoni, C. (author), Hendriks, M.A.N. (author), Den Uijl, J.A. (author)According to the new fib Model Code 2010 the design shear resistance of a reinforced concrete (RC) structure can be evaluated through analytical and numerical calculation methods that fall into four different levels of approximations; the complexity and the accuracy of the calculated shear resistance increases with increasing the level of...conference paper 2013

Belletti, B. (author), Esposito, R. (author), Damoni, C. (author)The paper adopts the FEM to describe the behaviour of a squat shear wall subjected to monotonic loading conditions. Nonlinear finite element analyses (NLFEA) have been performed with the model, denoted as PARC_CL, implemented at the University of Parma in the user’s subroutine UMAT.for for the ABAQUS Code. The PARC_CL model, suitable for...conference paper 2013
