Composite steel‐concrete slabs represent a successful integration of two distinct materials, combining the tensile strength and ductility of steel with the compressive capacity and durability of ...

Concrete is the most used material in the construction industry and dates to the Roman Empire. Engineers at the University of Pittsburgh (Pitt, Pittsburgh, Pa., U.S.) Swanson School of Engineering are ...

The tall shear wall system was developed through a series of studies and advancements by Magnusson Klemencic Associates (MKA). “The system is an evolution of many years of our work with composite ...

A cement composite that is durable, water-resistant and malleable has been created by engineers. It has such a high level of “crack control” that the researchers estimate it has a service life of 120 ...

Steel and concrete are the most commonly used construction materials. Innovation comes to life when you intrinsically connect two load-carrying structural members to deflect as a single unit, this is ...

Report Ocean has published a new report on the Composite Concrete Deck Market, delivering an extensive analysis of key factors such as market restraints, drivers, and opportunities. The report offers ...

Rectangular-shaped, hollow boom sections maximize strength-to-weight ratio, facilitating a 25% weight reduction vs. comparable steel booms. The ply schedule comprises three types of carbon fiber/epoxy ...

There is a growing interest in using coupled composite plate shear walls/ concrete-filled (CPSW/CF) for high-rise building construction, particularly to optimize the design for wind and/or seismic ...

Samsung C&T Engineering & Construction Group (hereafter Samsung C&T) is set to accelerate its entry into the global small modular reactor (SMR) market by leveraging its construction method of building ...

This project aims to develop and validate bolted splice details for C-PSW/CF, a structural system designed for non-seismic regions like New York City and Boston. The focus is on areas where bolted ...
