This paper analyses the redistribution of maximum loads using a system of load limiters on shores in which the limiters yield at a given load and thus reduce the maximum load absorbed by the shores. For this analysis a ...
[EN] On many occasions advances have been made in science and engineering thanks to the knowledge gained from failures. In the particular case of structural engineering, the study of actual failures makes it possible to ...
Adam Martínez, José Miguel; Buitrago Moreno, Manuel; Moragues Terrades, Juan José; Calderón García, Pedro Antonio(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2017)
[EN] One of the most critical stages for a structure s safety is its construction process, and this problem is even more acute in buildings with reinforced concrete structures. These structures are usually built by shoring ...
Buitrago, Manuel; Adam, Jose M; Calderón García, Pedro Antonio; Moragues, Juan J(Elsevier, 2018)
[EN] When constructing reinforced concrete building structures, shores are normally used to transmit the loads from freshly poured slabs to lower floors. However, certain problems are involved in this process, including: ...
