Migalski, Jos (author)The Helperzoom bridge is one of few existing prestressed slab-between-girder bridges that is being managed by Rijkswaterstaat. These bridges are built before 1980 and do not comply with the current standards. To evaluate the structural safety and capacity these bridges are being assessed. A total of four girders were taken from the Helperzoom...master thesis 2020

Brongers, Brian (author)Recently experiments were conducted at the Technical University of Delft on the size effect of concrete. The size effect is a term used for the relative decrease in shear capacity with an increase in height of the structural member. The beams observed in the experiment failed much sooner than was predicted. These test results have implications...master thesis 2020

Dolganov, Mikhail (author)This research studies a simplified connection between one storey high concrete columns and the continuous floors with an integrated steel beam, of the THQ type, carrying hollow core slabs and covered by a reinforced structural screed. The final goal is to determine the strength of the connection. This is done with a calculation method, which may...master thesis 2019

Gopinath, Kishore (author)The distinct feature of UHPC is the tensile strain hardening phenomena and high compressive strength. We can either use this potential as an additional safety margin in structures or design structures with no passive reinforcement.<br/>The advancements in active structural health monitoring devices have opened further possibilities to validate...master thesis 2019

Kevinly, Christopher (author)Coda wave interferometry is a technique used in the field of seismology, which utilizes the later part of the signal (coda) to detect subtle changes in a medium. In recent years, the application of coda wave interferometry to concrete structure has been assessed for structural health monitoring purposes. Smart aggregate is a sensor which...master thesis 2018

Vithalkar, Arjun (author)Concrete is used significantly in many structures since, the last few centuries. The need to maximize the concrete strength and utilize it's complete potential is the main focus of researchers even in today's modern age. It is thus, important to restore the existing structures apart from developing new materials and technology to build new...student report 2018

CHEN, Xin (author)Bridges with different geometrical configurations have been searched with linear finite element analysis. The aim is to find the position and value of critical proof load. Four different parameters, namely span length, width, skewness and thickness ratio, their influence on proof load are found. In total, 166 sets of data are obtained by...student report 2017

Zhang, Fengqiao (author)An increasing number of existing structures are approaching the end of their technical service life. Therefore, monitoring these structures to get the information of their health condition, which is called structural health monitoring (SHM), is becoming more significant. In SHM, acoustic emission (AE) technique shows promising features in...master thesis 2017

Zhou, Yanxin (author)The application of non-linear finite element analysis is important nowadays to simulate the real behavior of structure. A sort of non-linear finite element analysis with and without safety formats referring to Model Code 2010 is applied in this thesis, to study the FEM simulation of the shear capacity of reinforced concrete structure. A case...student report 2017

Johannes Mario Simanjuntak, Johannes (author)Significant development of Jakarta infrastructure is necessary to keep up with the economic growth. For the new Jakarta underground rail network, imminent extension of the North-South Line Phase 1 (NSL-P1) tunnel heads towards the northern part of city. One of the engineering challenges that exist in the area is the substantial amount of...master thesis 2017
