Effects of sudden failure of shoring elements in concrete building structures under construction

Buitrago, Manuel; Sagaseta, Juan; Adam, Jose M (Elsevier, 2018-10)

[EN] The most frequently used technique to construct reinforced concrete (RC) building structures is the shoring or propping of successive floors, in which the slabs are supported by the shores until the concrete acquires ...
Estimating loads on shores during the construction of RC building structures

Buitrago, M; Adam Martínez, José Miguel; Calderón García, Pedro Antonio; Moragues Terrades, Juan José; Alvarado Vargas, Yezid Alexander (Ernst und Sohn, 2016-09)

When constructing reinforced concrete (RC) building structures, knowing the loads to which the shoring system will be subjected during the entire process is one of the key aspects to ensure safety during the work. Although ...
